I would have been OK with We buying Meetup if they offered their space for meetups ... but alas ... they did literally nothing and likely we'll see that the product was killed in the end.

Not all VCs are above water on their Uber investment.
I'll just go on the record to say that I think WeWork is the biggest deck of cards that is begging for a collapse. I've only been to a handful of locations, but they never seem busy and I'm not sure how they're making rent.

I dunno, I can't put my finger on it, but I think this whole thing is a massive game of charades...

those end-cap spots are usually paid placements as well.
