Well the article title sucks, but also it's not a monopoly so idk what she's bitching about.

If you use slammed in your headline I already know it's going to be the most garbage bullshit I've ever read. I went delve into it.

"Unprecedented" and "Slammed"

I read those two words in any article and I'm immediately second guessing my will to read more.

At least it didn't say "game-changer"... the worst of them all.

Every time I read SLAMMED in an headline, my brain damage grows exponentially worse. I can't keep taking these kind of blows..

Some say the slam was so hard the shockwaves were felt on the other side of the globe.
