Business owner so stupid and moronic it's unbelievable
5 February 2023
I tried to watch this (okay, I didn't try very hard).

But in the first minute, the lead character reads a letter that says her rent is increasing 62% every month. "That should be illegal!" she exclaims.

This means she would be going from paying let's say $2,000 in January and then by April she's paying $8,500 and then $13,775 in May.

If we are to believe the writers that this character received this letter, then that means 1 of 2 things about this character is true: 1 - the letter doesn't actually say that and it's probably an annual lease with a 62% increase. That means she's a moron who doesn't know how to read who doesn't know how math works and there's no way she should be running her own business.

OR 2 - the letter does say that. Which means it is illegal. I don't care what fictional town you live in, but any legal group would want to know and she needs to talk to a lawyer and talk to the mayor of the fictional town and fight that absolutely insane unbelievable rent increase. Instead she just accepts it and needs to find a way to keep her business open which again means that she is a moron and should absolutely not be in charge of her own business.

I am so mad when movies try to throw absolutely stupid moronic characters at us, try to tell us they can run a successful business, and expect us to just sit there and take it. And why is the unbelievably stupid moronic business owner always a woman?
