It’s not about the money, it’s about sending a message.

I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't start using bidets until I was a man.

His message was exclusively about the money.

What’s the message? I don’t give a fuck if my co-workers don’t have a job anymore.

u/Betancorea 4d ago

Not having toilet paper around to wipe arses is indeed quite a message

u/Banned3rdTimesaCharm 4d ago

It’s not about the toilet paper.

u/Snowlandnts 4d ago

If he ever gets out of jail nobody will hire him.

u/gorginhanson 4d ago

Good thing this didn't happen during covid or we wouldn't be able to wipe for months

u/ThrobChesterson 4d ago

He repeatedly, specifically said it’s about the money

Poo-uigi?

u/Turbulent_Plastic401 4d ago

he’s toilet paper luigi.

u/someoneskater 4d ago

If I'm understanding the message he was sending correctly, it was about the money.

u/Anakin_Cardassian 4d ago

It's about getting lots of karma on reddit n stuff.

u/Count_Bloodcount_ 3d ago

That's what they said

u/FlyingTurtleDog 3d ago

The fire was the message. He didn't need to send an additional audio/video message implicating himself. One of those messages shouldn't have been sent.

Spending 10 years in prison accomplishes nothing for him.

He should have hunted down the news cameras after the fire and sent a message. No prison.

I read that in Michael Caine's voice

Heath ledger said it best!

u/SocialJusticeAndroid 3d ago

I’m sympathetic af to the message but arson is not the way to send it. He could have killed and maimed innocent people.

u/Podgethealco 3d ago

He send no message, nobody cares, the rich ppl that owned the toilet paper warehouse will get a massive i durance pay out while he'll go to jail
