He's the Technical Kid from American Gods…

Except Data would do it so that anyone who visited him would be statistically likely to enjoy something he could put on the sound system, because he's considerate that way even when he doesn't understand the culture around him — not just so that he could appear to be "normal"…

More like "don't mess with my weed and my downloads!" — aka Libertarian rather than liberal in any sense.

Even better, the ones who specialize in it, call themselves 'shitlords'!

But just think, instead of a Beer Baron, you could be a self-styled "Shitlord"! Doesn't that sound like a step up in the virtual world?

Apparently he is living in the reality where WB/DCEU isn't completely shut out of the domestic Top 5 Box Office, losing to Deadpool in that regard, and at the bottom last place in the international rankings, losing to Disney/MCU on all counts.

So you think DC can "Come from behind" to overcome the fact that they're 0 for 5 domestically, and 1-5 worldwide? Really? And Disney has had a few flops this year already — that doesn't change the fact that the top 4 worldwide box office hits are theirs, and the top 3 domestically. And WB is nowhere near them, let

Also, I made up Box Office Mojo. All of it. Not just the 2016 Worldwide Top 5 widget — the whole thing.

And they're so short! Most of them don't go over 90 minutes, and yet tell a full story with interesting characters, nuanced plots, and still have time for exciting action sequences! When they go long, the epics over two hours? You get EPIC, not "hours and hours of things clanging into each other" !

Because they're at the bottom of the rankings internationally, under 4 Disney/MCU movies, and don't even make the 2016 top 5 domestically — BvS finished below Deadpool according to Box Office Mojo.

Not only that, but your good intentions will cataclysmically rearrange the very geography of Kansas, in order to prove that Altruism Is Terrible!

Emo-man! Emo-man!
Does whatever an emo can!
Droops around
Sulks a lot
Can't decide
To get off the pot…
Oh no, it's Emo-man!

You can be that kind of "eccentric" billionare if, and only if, you're one of those who puts the R in "reclusive"…or if you inherited your fortune and aren't responsible for doing anything with it other than squandering it!

Nobody expected Apocalypse to be any good, and even Fox had given up trying to hype it the way that WB/DC did with their offerings.

I like "Go upvote yourself" as a ratings-board friendly insult!

He also admitted to being an Ayn Rand fanboy…

But that's the only way that Ayn Rand fans will like him!

FYI, this is why they aren't happy at WB, no matter how much money these movies made, (or how much profit either):

Sometimes the Big No is the only appropriate response.

You know that when people LOVE the Lego Batman Movie, everyone in charge at WB/DCEU is going to be completely clueless, blindsided, and no way to explain it, at all.
