The ocean loves the way they taste when compressed to a delicious paste.

All we gotta do is convince the sky to jump in, and these billionaires are gonna have to drive everywhere.
That's sounds like a lyric from Dethklok 🤘
Brutal.
Even in the modern day the ocean seems to devour the hubris stricken.
No wonder people worshipped it.
I read in an article he was on the yacht to celebrate being acquitted in a US fraud case. I bet he was innocent…
Well, he was a billionaire because he sold his successful business to Hewlett-Packard, who then wrecked it and strong-armed a case through the DoJ to claim he'd somehow misconstrued the value of his company, and then he spent 13 months in prison awaiting trial and was acquitted because the judge said HP just fucked it, so if we're making up theories about who's the villain in this story about an unexplained sinking... Maybe it's more complex than a cursory reading of a single news article?
Sorry, I’ve been pre conditioned to assuming every billionaire is an asshole and broke multiple laws to hoard unreasonable amounts of wealth (this fucking yacht for example) while actively making or passively watching other people live in poverty.
Fuck him, his acquittal, his boat and every one of his billionaire friends.
Well his 18 years old daughter died onboard that day, much like the kid in the titanic submarine. Only her mother survived. Maybe she was a little rich brat, maybe she would have become a world savior, who knows.
I’m all for eating the rich, but not before they are at least 45 years old, 18 is just sad.
I think you're still right though. regardless of the situation with HP, he still created a company that, when sold, made him a billionaire. I don't think that is possible without also exploiting people.
Leaving the ocean to clean up all our messes smh
Hail Neptune!
I believe that if Jesus really exists he smiles every time a billionaire goes to hell
"There's no point in seeking vengeance, cause daddy(I) will render judgement onto all!"
Storm-sunken. I'd love to know if there was a stupidity factor or if the Bayesian just got unlucky. To be fair, I'd expect a superyacht to be resilient to storms at sea and feature a savvy crew.
Damn, I was hoping the orcas got him.
They're opening an investigation on the crew.
I saw they may have had too many windows open

I really like this annual ritual of sacrificing billionaires to the god of the oceans!
1 down, 2700ish to go.
So are we taking bets about who is going to be next?
Gives a whole new meaning to "Big money, no whammies" 😁
thanks again, comrade Poseidon
Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Posiden really has it out for these rich dudes huh?
I'll hold off on my celebration until their whole class ceases to exist, abolished and left in the past.
Feel like I’m OOTL here. Which others have we been rid of?
Weren't the guys involved in the submarine story a while back billionaires too?
