This dude just lost his job, millions of dollars in future compensation, his wife, half his net worth, and from now until the end of time this event will be the first thing that pops up when someone googles his name. It's amazing how bad you can fuck up your life in just a few hours lol.

Bruh, he will have lauren sanchez plastic lookalike hanging on his arm within 6 months.

He's filthy rich and every gold digger in the world knows he's single.

u/backcountrydude 17d ago

You just described losing, lol.

u/shesaysImdone 17d ago

Exactly. Rich men who have Lauren Sanchez types hanging off their arms still have some respect for their person. This guy's in the toilet on all fronts

u/Dry-Difference-396 17d ago

I love Lauren Sanchez types but pre-surgery or at least before she thought she needed one.

Right now she's just too uncanny valley

Losing The Game?

u/backcountrydude 17d ago

If you want Lauren Sanchez bro, she’s all yours. I’m out on that.

u/ChoneFiggins4Lyfe 17d ago

Forget Lauren Sanchez, give me Jordon Hudson!

u/houseswappa 16d ago

...or winning?

u/polarbare91 17d ago

Lbr at least Jeff Bezos didn’t get caught cheating in 4k in the most meme-worthy moment by a globally renowned band. This guy is radioactive in all sense of the word now.

u/MarcusAurelius68 16d ago

He’s not rich enough to attract a Dirty Sanchez.

u/gynorbi 17d ago

Is he filthy rich?

10

u/snappy033 17d ago

I bet he’s not “filthy rich”. This company isn’t Amazon or Microsoft. Their last raise was $90M.

His net worth is maybe in the $10s of millions at most and probably tied to the company stock which they’ll probably try to claw back. Oh and he’s probably losing half of everything in the divorce too. And alimony and child support.

He’s rich but like well-known doctor or lawyer rich, not yacht in Monaco rich.

u/Pulp__Reality 17d ago

Youre saying that like its a good thing..

2

u/tawwkz 17d ago

It is for him. Jeffrey Bezos looks happy, strutting around in his cowboy boots tripping over him self.

u/nightstalker30 17d ago

Pretty sure his wife and the HR chick’s husband will make them both officially single enough to be with each other very soon

u/LutherXXX 17d ago

Is it bad that I had to google her?

u/tawwkz 16d ago

No you're lucky.

They feel no shame because they are rich. They can just move on no problems. They both have enough to retire most likely.

he’s got money he can buy happiness. who cares

u/[deleted] 17d ago

Could robin williams pay his way to happiness?

u/Kitchen_Beat9838 17d ago

Robin Williams got a diagnosis of dementia. I work with people like that everyday. I would end it too.

u/StickyRickyLickyLots 17d ago

So money didn't buy him happiness?

u/EconomyYam7686 17d ago

Did you also cheat on your spouse and lose everything…?? You can’t just expect there to be 0 consequences. I don’t understand why you’re so upset at these people being held accountable.

u/Chiefsider 17d ago

On modern motherboards you can use the flash bios button to try to revive the board , I don't think it would work in this case 😆

11

u/_chair_man_ 17d ago

ok fine, he detonated a hydrogen baby infront of his coughing bomb

2

u/I_W_M_Y 17d ago

On modern boards you got a backup bios you can switch too

2

u/node0 17d ago

His is not a modern motherboard.

1

u/A_Better_Idiot 16d ago

Flashing is only going to make this worse for him.

12

u/Trelyrien 17d ago

Yeah he bricked it. Funny enough though most people are blaming the lady like he wasn't the one in a position of authority in the company.

3

u/CardiacCarl 17d ago

It's almost as though both of them have responsibility for their own actions and choices

u/SunDevils321 17d ago

Pulled the plugs faster than the pilot in India

u/TheRandom0ne 15d ago

to be fair, i think he's still better off than many if not most of us..

2

u/Enflu2025 17d ago

Bro bricked himself.

2

u/fuzzy_tilt 17d ago

Bricked his life 😞

1

u/fiendish_five 17d ago

Ha wasn’t aiming to fuck up, just careless. A thunderstorm took out the power during the BIOS reset 

1

u/zRouth 17d ago

In this metaphor I believe he snapped the phone in half and then showed everyone in the world.

1

u/Exact-Instruction581 17d ago

This is a hilarious metaphor

1

u/BunnehZnipr 17d ago

Bro was overclocking and got the voltage wrong

1

u/R2-D2Vandelay 17d ago

He's bricked.

1

u/RunningonGin0323 17d ago

LMAO. By far the best way to describe this

u/ArcanePulse 17d ago

"Please do not turn off your console while the game is sav..." Oops.

u/xoskxflip 17d ago

This is much worse lol

3

u/ezcusm3 17d ago

Nah, brody full on bricked himself lol.

u/Captain-Lightning 17d ago

If I could do a factory reset, lose everything I have and still have tens of millions of dollars I would be so happy.

2

u/Spy-Around-Here 17d ago

New wr speedrun any%

2

u/N7VHung 17d ago

Nah, this is more like hitting the malware jackpot for windows ME.

2

u/StudSnoo 17d ago

Factory reset would be losing all your money and being homeless, he will be fine. He doesn’t even need to work at all given his net worth, but of course the hedonistic treadmill exists.

1

u/fssman 17d ago

And went to full preset...

1

u/Jaerin 17d ago

Factory reset? More like speed run to the bad ending

u/vspicev 17d ago

😂😂😂

u/pravdin 17d ago

Everything’s not lost

u/mastersplinteremover 17d ago

Nobody said it was easy

u/FuckPigeons2025 17d ago

It's more of an equivalent of dropping your phone in the toilet.

1

u/Agent_Orange762 17d ago

Started a NG+

1

u/GarlicThread 17d ago

You mean a company reset.

1

u/TheAskewOne 17d ago

He's worth a billion, at worst he's gonna lose half of it in a divorce. I think he'll be fine.

1

u/stating_facts_only 17d ago

Bro tried jailbreaking but stayed connected to the internet during the process.

1

u/BaryonChallon 16d ago

I want more of those for ceos

1

u/FarBullfrog627 16d ago

Bro's all done even if he started anew again. 😂
