wsb kept the magic going. when the guy placed his bets purely on where the dog in his yard shit. the 'guh' moment. the 'oh my gourd' incident. that time someone "bought" several swimming pools worth of oil when its price went negative and then had to "take possession" of said oil.

at least a bit longer. it was really the only sub still committed to "fun" from the before times. of course it blew up and enshittified too. the gourd one though. absolute classic madlad action.

the gourd one:

oh my gourd
