Reply to comment by YoungBumi in Tesla value as it relates to Twitter's purchase [OC] by datawazo
The last couple months are a pretty clear, and pretty dire, deviation from the market.
S&P is down 15% on the year. NDX is down 27%. TSLA is down 50%.

Reply to comment by IvoMiata in [WP] Your wife has an estranged sister that you have never met. She was murdered in a cold case soon after you were married. You brush off your wife’s new strange behaviour after the murder as grief. Until you find an old family photo of your wife as a kid, you shiver as you realise… they’re twins. by AUFunmacy
Given the forum and the audience, erring on the side of brevity is rarely going to be the wrong move here. So don't worry about it too much, just keep it in mind for other contexts.
And I'm happy to help! I posted my first WP response a couple weeks ago and I found myself wishing there were more action items in the comments I got, so I figured others might feel the same.

I quite enjoyed this. If you're wondering "am I good enough at writing for practicing to be worthwhile," I'd say the answer is yes.
By way of constructive criticism: this is very short, and as a result feels like it blows through the relevant realization (first the twins are identical, then some differences are noted, then "I could definitely tell" them apart, all within a couple sentences). But everything scans well, and the end, while cheesy, does exactly what you want it to.

He doesn't have to live in Argentina for the next 4 years, lol. Most countries think about things other than the World Cup during the time in between.
