There is a young billionaire in town and his name is Terry Gibson. All media outlets have decided not to release his age because they feel it will protect the fragile egos of Americans and prevent national morale from sinking to an all-time low. Hit the jump to read the rest of the story.
Major media outlets confirmed Friday their agreement to omit young billionaire Terry Gibson’s age from all news reports as part of an effort to protect the fragile egos of Americans and prevent national morale from sinking to an all-time low. “With the economy lagging and millions of Americans still out of work, the last thing people need to hear is the age of some young billionaire inventor who’s just rolling in it,” said ABC News president Ben Sherwood, adding that the enormously wealthy young man was “under 30, and let’s just leave it at that.” “Just seeing that kid’s smiling baby face is going to be depressing enough.” Television broadcasts and newspapers are not revealing that the billionaire makes $50 per second, claiming that the information would cause every citizen in the country to blow their fucking head off.
