He thinks he’ll be a slave owner? I’d never heard that before, but I’m not surprised one bit.

Yup.

Huffman has calculated that, in the event of a disaster, he would seek out some form of community: “Being around other people is a good thing. I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.”

Sounds like a terrible case of Main Character Syndrome. People don't survive an apocalypse just because they think they're important.

Spez would be the first one to die as soon as the supply chain for chicken nuggets collapsed

"Natural leader" my ass

And he would have a heart attack upon learning that stocks and money will become worthless.

I gotta say, I thought your first comment was some kind of madly wild, baseless, bitter accusation stemming from heavy disillusionment with reddit and assumption that spez must surely represent the worst of us.

The fact that you actually have a source for that madness and interpreted that source accurately is the most mindblowing thing I've seen in a while. That really is quite an article.

You and me both chief. When I first heard it I also did a hard double take.
The affluenza class really do live in a completely different world than us. To the point where their reality sounds like absolute absurdity to us "normal people".

I want to get off Mr. Bones Wild Ride.

More of an egotistical airhead. At least dorks can sometimes be cute if they're nice- Spez is just stupid from being fed from too many silver spoons.
