Billionaire drug addict was swindled out of millions by his assistant, according to lawsuits filed by his family.
You may remember the story of him living in a shed and dying of burns after the shed caught fire.
No wonder she's smiling

The eccentric entrepreneur's vast wealth was looted through bizarre and 'manipulative' contracts written on sticky notes, cooked up by 'so-called friends' who let him spiral into drug abuse and severe mental illness, according to a counterclaim by his father and brother against his personal assistant, Jennifer 'Mimi' Pham, who sued his estate for $93million in February.
Hsieh amassed vast wealth selling his startup LinkExchange to Microsoft for $265million in 1998, and shoe company Zappos to Amazon in a $1.2billion deal.
But his family say that last year he went off the rails, abusing ketamine to self-medicate his social anxiety, inhaling up to 50 canisters of nitrous oxide - known as whippits - every day, and slipping into psychotic delusions that the world was a simulation, that he could download skills to his brain instantly like Neo in the Matrix and that he could transform into animals.
The family's legal filing described how Hsieh's living conditions became increasingly hellish as he spiraled mentally and physically.

He would seem to personify the male folk who care for soy.

Whippets… talk about a drug that you rarely hear about outside of a Denis Leary routine or a Will Ferrell movie anymore.

Damn, I read that as "Zapp's" at first and was wondering how I'd never heard this story...

Is this that crazy now that we let people identify as whoever or whatever they want?

I've never known a gummy smile woman that wasn't nuttier than a squirrel turd.

That smile haunts your nightmares? Really?
She looks pretty normal to me.
Oh, it's a message board. Let's overreact.
Just messing with you. Sort of.

If anyone needs me, I'll be shooting my best shot in Mimi Pham's DMs.
I could really use someone like her to spice up my life.

What can I say, long chinned people with Jack Nicholson era joker smiles freak me out. And yes I'm known to use hyperbole.
