    I have no idea what the fuck this meme is about. I gather from the comments it’s something to do with audio stuff? Why is this cable bad? What the fuck is it even supposed to be? I’m so confused

      The cable is fiber optic, which is to say light. Light don’t care about gold and silver. The highly polished lens bit is probably also bullshit, but at least light cares about lenses.

      More generally, it’s not that cables are bad, it’s that audiophiles have way more money than sense. I’m not exaggerating when i say that I’ve seen short speaker cables sell for £6,000. Anything more than £5 will be of exactly the same quality as the £5 cable. You could maybe argue me up to £15-20.
