If you made it through that, here's a break.

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.

.... Hold on. I'm 1m40s in. Before I go any further, is it supposed to be self-parodying? Were the editors of the film conscious of what they were doing, and if so, was it a light joke done with a wry smile, or do they genuinely hate everyone who's watching it?

My guess is that you're not American. Marshall McLuhan said it best. "The medium is the massage."

They're trying to determine who the 'lowest common denominator' is. I'm up to about 49 minutes and it appears they seem to favor the LCD being former President G.W. Bush.

I've thought a lot about this. In fact, it was a major inspiration for a book I wrote a few years ago. Stupidity, willful ignorance, and evil are synonymous to me. In fact, it took me weeks to "dumb down" my manuscript for the average well educated American reader. I'm glad I did, because I learned that using simple language doesn't make you sound stupid, it makes you sound less like a douchebag. Someday, when I am freed from this situational slavery, I have big plans to write many books. I'm hoping that stumbling onto something as brilliant as Bitcoin will help me get there faster.
