Dear Mr. Onstad I would gladly pay you $5 to read a blog post where Pat explains his enthusiasm for crypto while addressing concerns about the ecological impact of blockchain power consumption.

EDIT: poo poo, my finger slipped on mobile and now I have two emptyquotes instead of one substance quote.

Ray thought he was arranging for a woman to form a relationship between her bottom, a cake, and his back.

You know what, Pat is that one jagoff in every thread on Twitter about blockchain ecological impacts who talks about, well, actually, with this new technology that nobody loving uses, crypto is carbon neutral.

Pat also minted his own token which is entirely run off of a server he maintains that's made out of discarded coconut husks and is powered by a generator that runs off his exercise bike. "Patcoin" is the only true green cryptocurrency and if you think about buying one, the attendant caloric expenditure means you're already out money on the deal.

Pat delivers hand-defunged tokens to a central pickup location via his gravity sensible skitter-cart. The pickup location is an all-vegan bestitute farmer's market where you have to commit to buying $87 worth of goods to enter. There is no parking.

meanwhile all of Pat’s living expenses are covered by Rod’s burgeoning OnlyFans business, anchored by the wildly successful Picnic Panic Theatre and accompanying PicnicPod ChatCast, both of which update every week

Pat’s dad is a tier 1 subscriber, 100% because he wants to help out his son/son in law, but it still makes family meetings awkward

I feel like Ray would be the kind of guy who gets into NFT's by accident but after being explained how terrible they are ends up feeling really lovely about it and ends up doing something ridiculous with the money he made to try and make up for it

Philippe meanwhile fills up several hard drives with "funny monkey images" he's downloaded off Twitter, resulting in Teodore having to stage an intervention

Pat's involvement with crypto is driven by the "community" aspect. Mostly because he realizes that they're not keen on ostracizing whale investors, no matter how obnoxious they are. He has over $200,000 tied up in NFTs so he can espouse his views about barbers to a captive audience without fear of retribution.

jokes aside, I’m p sure that if Pat were real, he’d be one of those Jimmy Dore fans that’s been turned into an antivaxxer, and everyone would be torn between wondering if some kind of intervention should be done and just super-duper extra avoiding him
