1. "Sad/Funny?" How about doing a little dance in celebration of a Yuppie Failure?
I'll be doing a celebratory jig; you're certainly invited to join in, because I appreciate your post so much.

Absolutely NO sarcasm here; there's not a damn thing in this world I enjoy more than seeing a "Developer" lose his ass.

2. Well, it's always hard for me to get happy about waste.
Wasted effort, resources, labor, time. Just an incredible waste. Even Las Vegas proper is not all that desirable a place to live, but the wastelands an hour outside of town? Gimme a break. That place looks post-apocalyptic.

3. Like I said. Worthy of getting upset about, and bring to others' attention.
You did well.
