I saw this comedy routine by Garlic Jackson posted online. Warning- It really is not that funny.  Maybe it is because I know what a Bitcoin is?  Wink  And 10,000 BTC could never be worth 11,000 BTC!  But he did offer 10,000 to anyone who could tell him what one was!  Hmmmm.  He probably does not have that many or he would know!!! Grin

Wow. Shocked
Can we start a crowdfunded group to have this guy spit out the 10k he promises for a mere definition?

Being a blond the first thing I thought was "Yes!  I can tell him!"  Then though, "Oh wait.  It was supposed to be a joke."  Darn.

I'm positive this was no joke, but just provocation with a pinch of slander. And since his video made it here, he's got to play by the betting rules... Grin

That was horribly unfunny and I usually am a pretty good sport.  Colbert got a ton wrong on his Bitcoin segment but it was at least funny. 

I feel bad for this guy.  He doesn't have any Bitcoins and he isn't funny either.

for me, it was a bit Chris Morris does an Andreas Antonopoulos impression, with a touch of Max Headroom...

i liked the 'graph of fluctuating currencies with a Bitcoin behind it' ...

The graph was the one "moment" for sure.  It was about as meaningful as a few I have seen on this board at times. Wink

Eh..  I loved it Smiley

I'm pretty sure this is about what it sounded like when I first tried to explain Bitcoin to my mother.
She would have heard random geeky words that she might vaguely have recalled hearing before.. strung together in sentences that left her none the wiser.
Hopefully I've got better at explaining since then.

You didn't even grin when he said 10,000 Bitcoin was worth 11,000 Bitcoin?  Grin

If this post was useful, interesting or entertaining, then you've misunderstood.

Ok that was mildly funny.  The middle simply got repetitive with the dull "Bitcoin is facebook, bitcoin is abc, bitcoin is xyz etc" routine.
