I love shit like that.
We have this incredibly expensive machine that was made by incredible engineers and scientists who spent an ungodly amount of hours on it. And their solution to some kind of problem with the machine, was to wrap a part in kitchengrade alu-foil, probably from the employee kitchen.
I think what the person meant was publicly attacking this dude, because we hate his mother. This wouldn't even get a mention in the back of a newspaper if he wasn't her son.
What he did was probably super bad, I don't give enough of a shit to read the article about it. But the reality is that something equally bad happens literally everywhere all the time, but the only reason this gets any publicity is because his mother is a piece of shit.
