Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for April 22, 2022

Taking stock

It is a comic.

The weird thing is, the company that owned and liquidated Blockbuster is still traded (for 0.12 Cents or 0.0012 USD, the price hasn’t changed since January), so you could still sort of buy Blockbuster stock.

This looks like a job for Robin Hood. How aptly named me thinks.

Jim Cramer, specifically.

“Finkcoin”? I think I’ll definitely pass on that!

Is it now time to shoot the messenger?

Diamond Hands? Whaaazat?

oh great. now Id will have news at 4:00, 5:00, 6:00 and 7:30. and 10:00 and 11:00….

a few weeks ago while looking for something else I found a Blockbuster DVD…

Crazy world we live in.

Wow, suddenly I have the urge to check my 401k. You know. Just to see if it grew any since last night.

To the moon, Alice! To the moon!

That’s some great advertising.

My money manager says video stores are making a come back. I think I need to find a new manager.

The only difference is that a racetrack tout isn’t as loud.

Sounds like Cramer on cnbc

So much for a good night’s sleep.

I would love to see the percentage of people who read this strip (or any comics that started out in printed newspapers) who are even aware of “stonks” on reddit. It seems like it would be a small number, but I don’t really know.
