>There are people on HN who weren't alive in 2008.

Are there that many under-15s here?

As someone who lived through the S&L crisis of the Middle Ages, the current agitation doesn't even rise to that level; so far there hasn't been an indication of widespread outright fraud perpetrated by bank execs. This seems more like a less favorable (i.e. less free money from the Fed) environment exposing a few banks with very poor/incompetent management.

Any comments you read, and thought was smart, was the take of a 15-year-old. What do you have to say now?

Albeit it's better than talking to ChatGPT.

1986 is not the Middle Ages. This one fraction suggests to me I'm responding to a hallucinating bot.

Was attempted irony. And ChatGPT would have probably written a better comment.

Are you saying people somehow watched Saturday Night Live in medieval times?
