A Hive Dev known as @thefunkybunch who has been working on a tool to benefit the whole of Hive is confused today after not many people have upvoted his proposal yet. The tool he has made is up and running and has all the bells and whistles but yet he has only had a few million upvotes of support from the hive community. He is scratching his head right now pondering why people have not jumped aboard considering the whole Community is checking out his brilliant new tool.And yes it is brilliant. @thefunckybunch goes back over his proposal to check if he made any errors along the way. The dev is looking for a mere 98 HBD per day to run the new tool in which he thinks is a bargain. The Hive tool is usable which is a great plus as most Hive tools that look for funding do not even exist yet. When you do the maths the tool will cost 2744 HBD in funding per month, 32,928 per year. A snippet compared to the volume of spending on some marketing projects on Hive. @thefunkybunch goes down the checklist and cannot find anything wrong with his breakdown. He checks again and nothing. Could it be his autistic tendencies kicking up again? Is the Hive tool that bad? It can't be. People have been raving about it. He treble checks his breakdown just to be 100%.He may have forgot to carry a 1 somewhere. He goes down through it again

@thefunkybunch had to be on the ball with any DHF proposal because all eyes are on him as he spent much of his time giving out about other DHF projects especially that guy @innocentindividual that he thought were taking the absolute piss out of the community. So it was important to have just the essentials in his very own proposal so nobody could call him out about being a total hypocrite. He did not include the sun loungers he had hired off the Mexican guy on the beach or those tasty malibu's by the pool. That would be just taking the biscuit but everything else looked (as Larry David puts it) prettttttttty prettttttttttty good.
Nope allllll goood here. Maybe it's the Hive price and nobody is around this week. Maybe....
It's very quiet around here alright. Even I didn't earn the usual 200 quid on my last 50 word post!
Tough times! Looking blow past that to the moon anytime soon now
I always look on the bright side...We’re doomed! Doomed, I tell you!:)
The pallet chicken post deserved $500
Ah, Blanch, thanks very much. You can Revolut me or I can send you a paypal request.:)
That's the kind of detail I like to see. Those Chinese takeaways won't buy themselves!
🤣🤣🤣 them 3 in 1s don’t grow on trees
Got to be fed the
steemyHivey dollars!Still more worthy of being funded than 90% of the crap out there!
What are you talking about @bozz . This is a fictional article . Why is there someone after going over the top and asking for too much for their Hive tool?? 🤔🤔
Hypothetically, I think it's a pretty reasonable request compared to most of them.
😂 😂 I would agree hypothetically
I was starting to think this post had hypothetical laughs... until I saw those strikeout lines on the expenses list!
MOMS the word
If I charge by the hour I can scrape up ~$1500/wk. Surely a dev with a cool tool is worth more than an involuntary thumb detector.
Thanks!
