Rizz alert: This comment has high intellectual rizz—specifically, nerd rizz and wit rizz. Here's why:

1. Sharp Observation – It cleverly points out an internet phenomenon: confidently stating a wrong fact triggers a flood of corrections.
2. Humor & Metaphor – The "Black Friday supermarket rush" analogy is vivid and funny.
3. Tech-Savvy Appeal – The CVE-1980-1 reference (a fake cybersecurity vulnerability) makes it sound like an insider joke for tech enthusiasts.
4. Confident Delivery – The smooth, confident phrasing enhances its persuasive and entertaining effect.

Final verdict: 9/10 rizz for internet nerds and tech circles.

Based on the other responses, better to be asking the question than assume he was stupid for asking it.

Dietary cholesterol has little to no effect on blood cholesterol, so indeed cholesterol is good or at least not bad

Perhaps surprisingly, dietary cholesterol has less an effect on blood cholesterol than a handful of other things. Saturated fat intake/balance in diet correlates more strongly, and vitamin D levels negatively correlates (vitamin D deficiency positively correlates).

Dietary cholesterol is used for a lot of key things such as hormone production, so some people might actually want to increase their cholesterol intake (super active lifestyle people like endurance athletes - can help combat RED-S aka Female Athlete Triad), but the elephant in the room for bad lipid profiles is saturated fats, refined sugars, and sedentary lifestyle

High cholesterol is "bad" with too much of other fats in your diet, but you need cholesterol to live so your body makes most of it.

E: Correcting the science there, whoops.

afaik from youtube, HDL is good, LDL is bad.
