If you want something else that is not funny, subscribe to my channel and check out my video essay about pet death, mourning and how much I miss my cat.

I Miss My Cat | A Video Essay on my Dumb Dead Cat | Amber Flannery...

I miss my cat; my cat died last year, and I use her life to talk about death, art and Superman. I miss my cat a lot. Getting over a loss of a pet can be hard...

Oh, you're laughing at the hedge fund that got juked by reddit? Well, they're bankrupt now. Are you laughing now? Is it funny now that a bunch of MBAs are out of a job? Can you laugh knowing they're explaining to their investors that they were out maneuvered by POTATO_IN_MY_ASS?
