I don't understand. Can you be more specific, Lloyd?

Lloyd Winston, you're a mook.

Lloyd You don't perceive how oddball, eccentric, and totally
Lloyd IMPRACTICAL your waste-of-energy refrigerator-dehumidifier is.
Lloyd You're like the Walter Minto of energy conservation!

Lloyd Why? Why do people do this crap? Is it just the bux,
Lloyd or is it trying to build themselves up in their own eyes?

I don't know why that is, Lloyd.
Probably a manifestation of deep - seated insecurity.
