Wild and Dumb Things People Wanted Loans For
Personally, we'd wish we could move money around as recklessly as banks themselves do and get bailed out with no repercussions, but anyway here are some stupid and weird things people wanted to invest in.

When People Didn't Know Who They Were Talking To
The anonymity of the internet allows a lot of people to pretend to be experts on things, as well as pass massive judgement and throw accusations around like a furious ape tosses fresh hot crap. Here are times that people were sorely mistaken and didn't realize they were talking to someone who knew a hell of a lot more then they did. Sometimes these end decently, like when the writer of Men in Black was told not to mansplain Men in Black.
