I can understand Miss Dribbles being upset, after all, not long ago she topped up and she paid 1.45p.
Posts from the scurrilous rats should always be treated with caution and with the contempt that they deserve. They are deeply upset and frustrated by years of a falling share price dashing their hopes for gains here, and when that reality is pointed out to them, since they cannot argue with the facts, they resort to scurrilous tactics in their posts - denial of reality, misrepresentation of facts, insulting and abusive remarks, criticism in the form of mockery and ridicule (but based on misrepresentation of the facts and therefore not valid criticism) - which is why I call them scurrilous rats.
Can you really believe any statement from characters who act lke that?
I am going to believe Miss Dribbles about buying at 1.45p, and here's why, in this case, I believe her.
She genuinely expected the sp to go up. She had fallen the bluff about a moonshot.
It is sad that she is so deluded. She ignored the trendline on the price chart and listened to the bluff from the slimeball, and I can see only one explanation for why that was.
She suffers from misguided thinking. This mental condition leads people to wrong conclusions, wrong expectations and poor decision making.
Here's a little tale that exemplifies it very well.
After WW2, many national boundaries were re-drawn and borders changed by world leaders drawing lines on maps.
Surveyors had to go out and make those changes on the land - putting up signs and fences to mark the new borders.
Surveyors marking out the new border between Russia and Ukraine came to a house that lay exactly on the line of the new border. An old woman lived alone in the house.
They couldn't leave her with a house that was half in Russia and half in Ukraine, and so the border had to be slightly diverted to go around the house.
In discussing on which side of the house, the border ought to be placed, they decided to give the old woman the choice of on which side the fence would be placed, and thus, in which country she would be living from then on.
The woman thought for a while and told them that she wished to live in Ukraine. The border was diverted to leave her house on the Ukraine side.
As they were about to move on, one of the surveyors was curious and he asked the old woman what had made her choose Ukraine.
She said, "In Russia they have such terrible winters."
Next time you have your expectations raised by posts about moonshots, think of this Miss Dribbles, and examine things carefully and try to see reality - see if the claims match the facts.
