GMSV dramatises MSFT & Yahoo! courtship

I love Good Morning Silicon Valley:

"...maybe what we’re seeing is one of those romantic comedies where the couple spends the first hour and half getting off to a cute, contentious start before undergoing personal growth and falling into each other’s arms. In that context, we’ve just reached the scene where Jerry (or Jerri, depending on the casting) tells Steve: “You’ve been hitting on me pretty hard and you’ve been being a jerk about it, too. But I’m not one of your little round-heeled floozies — if you’re going to have a shot with me, you better try treating me with a little respect, and by respect, I mean bling. So stop being so macho, cut back on the aftershave and dust off your Gold Card — then we’ll see what happens.”"
