If there’s one compliment you can begrudgingly pay Martin Shrkeli it’s that he knows he’s a smug asshole and he doesn’t give any f–ks. Shkreli plead the Fifth repeatedly in front of a Congressional committee on Thursday when questioned about everything including the $2 million Wu-Tang Clan album he bought.
The amount of snark pouring out of Shkreli’s smug, punchable face could put this blog to shame. He even almost burst out in laughter at one point when he was being lectured about how he could right his wrongs and become a patient advocate. “Haha, yea bro. Because dignity and respect is really going to help me buy the next Wu-Tang album.” *makes jerkoff motion*
His lawyer claimed later that he was smirking was because he was “nervous”. However, a tweet he sent out afterward makes it seem otherwise.
Hard to accept that these imbeciles represent the people in our government.

Martin Shkreli is an asshole. I don’t like him, but I kind of respect him. Now I feel dirty.
It’s official, Victor and Chuck are the reason I still come to this site. I totally get how Vic feels about this piece.
Crap. I think this was a compliment. I have no idea how to react to those.
