It's probably best that you're sitting down for this.

The National Enquirer threatened to publish Jeff Bezos' dick pics if he didn't rein in his personal investigator, and in response the Amazon CEO posted about it on Medium. AMI later claimed it had "acted lawfully" and would investigate Bezos' allegations.

Taking a page out of Alexander Hamilton's revenge book, he published a lengthy post about the incident and owned up to the nudes he sent, "rather than capitulate to extortion and blackmail."

Once Bezos tweeted a link to the post, it was only a matter of time before the dick pic commentary began.

Some couldn't get over the bizarre scenario.

I can't decide what the world deserves more: presidential pee tape or Amazon CEO dick pic. 🤷‍♀️ — Annalee Newitz (@Annaleen) February 7, 2019

Twitter users also applauded Bezos — shrugging off nudes because you have the money to is truly a baller move.

What’s the point of having fuck you money if you never say fuck you to people blackmailing you over your dick pics.

Good for Bezos. — Brian Koppelman (@briankoppelman) February 7, 2019

in retrospect, it is possible the invention of photography was a mistake — Ariel Edwards-Levy (@aedwardslevy) February 7, 2019

There was an abundance of puns and references to Amazon's somewhat terrifying marketing practices.

There were also reactions to Bezos' use of "complexifier," which probably isn't the word he was trying to use.

“Source of complications” > “complexifier” — Matthew Yglesias (@mattyglesias) February 7, 2019

I like that he used the word “complexifier,” bc it means that he definitely wrote it himself and is an actual person who would get into a petty argument with a copy editor. — Emily Nussbaum (@emilynussbaum) February 7, 2019

Jeff Bezos calls his dick “the complexifier” — Noah Hurowitz (@NoahHurowitz) February 7, 2019

I am a complexifier of my own life — Tom Tomorrow (@tomtomorrow) February 8, 2019

I would be less ashamed of the dick pics than of using the word "complexifier" — Daniel Radosh (@danielradosh) February 7, 2019
