Well now we know who bought it. That shitbird Martin Shkreli paid $2MM for it. You may remember him as the assclown who raised the price of a drug that helps cancer patients stay alive from $13.50 to $750 a pill. Probably going to play it on a Crosley...

Considering the guy used to donate money to Geoff Rickley's record label I think it's safe to say he has enough knowledge to not use a Crosley. Even if he doesn't know better, rich people buy expensive shit just because it's expensive so he probably has a pretty nice set up.

That being said, dude is obviously always and forever a scumbag.

It's actually medicine for HIV. Just fyi

 

Actually, it is used to treat malaria, and protozoal infections, the latter of which HIV patients are susceptible to.

 

Saying that he is killing AIDS patients garners more clicks though.

 

That said, only about 2,000 patients a year take it.

Oh ok..didn't realize that. All of the news articles didn't point any of that out. Typical

The ones I read did, but thats's neither here nor there. The fact remains that it still doesn't make him any less of an asshole because it's life saving medicine for "only" 2000 people per year instead of the entire aids/hiv population.

He has also done similar things before.

Dude's a turd.

i'll hop on the "dude is a turd" train, but no more a turd than any other pharma head.

 

i'll bet wu tang knew a turd was gonna buy their album.

For sure on both of those points.

Ghoul reminds me of the time my grandmother called someone a "creature" in a fit of anger. That was always one of my favorites.

 

years ago i was watching The Ring in the movie theater and these preteen girls screamed at a scary part, but my dad also got scared and in a fit of hysteria yelled, "Get a life!" to the little girls really loudly. had to walk out for a sec i was laughing so hard. my dad gets embarrassed about it if you bring it up.

I legitimately had a good, out-loud chuckle at this when I read it.

Dude sucks without question.

 

My issue is just with the way news is reported now.
