HAR HAR HAR.

It is always enjoyable to laugh at the nonsensical ranting of a fool.

I particularly liked "experienced people".  That's ROTFL material.

If they were experienced, they would know that their idea, far from being
new and novel, is very old (at least 25 years in my memory), has been
discussed to death many times, and has even been tried multiple
times...with the result always being a trainwreck.
