An eccentric millionaire?
What are they going to do, stroke their cat laughing maniacally while they read the notice of a fine from their HOA?

I love how perfectly this captures the reality that being a millionaire in today’s America is somehow both a very privileged position and just barely above being utterly destitute.

My parents are millionaires, all it means in 2025 is that you can retire.

I get the point you're making but to be fair I'm pretty sure General Zaroff did very much lose the game.
(Maybe we should take inspiration from how that story ends)
There are charges that rich Italians flew into Bosnia and shot civilians.

Yes, not the best source, but this was reported in many outlets including thegaurdian, nytimes and bbc.

Irrelevant to my comment (reading comprehension!).
Then they should've used those sources 😉

You do know that you are legally allowed to seek out your own sources, right?

Yes, you should keep on complaining about other people instead of learning to do things for yourself.

This might need to be updated. Nowadays a "millionaire" is someone who will be able to retire.

The difference between a millionaire and a billionaire, is about a billion dollars. To a billionaire, a mere millionaire is as much a pauper as the rest of us. When the time comes, they'll have millionaire jerky on their charcuterie board, along with everybody else.

Many of us are also really interested in whatever Knife Monopoly is.

The rules are pretty easy, one player gets a monopoly on knives and the other players are hunted for sport

"But, but, but, I heard there was going to be a bunch of naked underage girls..."
"No, that's Jeff's island. That guy is a weirdo freak. I just want to hunt you to the death."

The one Archer quote I still remember is when someone tells him that they're going to play the most dangerous game, and Archer is like, "jai alai?"

That's why they're doing it on an island

Getting taken to an eccentric rich person's island and being relieved it's just a hunt to the death.
Everything is a hunt to the death if you are uncooperative enough.
