    If you don’t want to be called a shill for banks, try and avoid sounding exactly like a shill for a bank.

    With even a second of reflection it should have been clear that not everybody has the same luxury as you do. Forget to look both ways before crossing the street and you might find that a 200 IQ isn’t the protection you thought it was.

      If I tell you that cordless drills are useful, are you gonna call me a Ryobi shill?

        Nah, that doesn’t sound like you. You’d find an article about people being maimed by faulty Ryobi drills and comment “Honestly it’s not that hard to use a drill if you’re as smart and well hung as I am. I’ve used my Fesstool cordless drill three times now and was fine every time” like a smug fuck.
