The best thing (the only good thing) about OpenAI is that literally every photo of Sam Douchebag looks like a record-scratch freeze-frame from an 80s movie where the voiceover says "I'll bet you're wondering how I ended up here..."

  Dude is fucking Mr. Bean with a Delorean who catastrophically botched the Biff Tannen gambit. "Did I do that?"

  @jwz Yes, but is this one of the 80's movies with agents for three different TLAs trying to squeeze through his battered down door at once or is it more a speedboat plus angry men with machine-guns type of film?

  @jwz If his AI is so damn smart, why doesn't he just use it to bet on sports? He could raise $7 trillion doing that I'm sure.

    A heartless developer plans to buy out and then knock over the local Orphanage of Love because they haven't paid their bills in ages, possibly with the aid of a Morally Bankrupt Banker, assuming they aren't the same person. Despite the horrible …

    So the Orphanage of Love is in trouble. Big, costly trouble. How are those orphans going to raise all that money? It's simple: put on a show! We'll use the modest singing talents of the secretary corps, and we can put a stage in that old barn out …

  @jwz The only movie I can name with that trope plot was “Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.” What other films made it a trope?

  @jwz Ah yes, “scar the orphanage” maps to a lot more movies. Breakin’ 2 is the only one that’s actually a rec center. And yes, I paid to see that film in an actual theater on opening day. ;-)
