NAILED it on something I NEVER see examined closely, Cosmocat. That sniveling and whining about "uncertainty"!

Hey, let's be honest here. Any company sitting on a mountain of cash it's just hoarding - has NO legitimate claim to bray about "uncertainty." When you've got amounts of money as large as theirs stashed away, you can HARDLY whine about "uncertainty." That much money will see you through any alleged "uncertainty" with the greatest of ease.

Fuck them! I don't want to hear any complaints about "uncertainty"! Hell, you face "uncertainty" on the very moment you greet the new day! You're not 100% guaranteed of ANYTHING, EVER! You're certainly not guaranteed to have a successful day, or, hell, even survive the day! We all face uncertainty EVERY DAY and EVERY NIGHT.

It's called the unpredictability of life. It's called Fate. It's called the Luck of the Draw. It's called Serendipity. It's called "que sera sera." We live with it day in and day out!
