i hear this expression "vc burn" from my boss, who is a former gartner associate analyst, a lot, and the whole business of the company he runs is about trying to find VCs to build a decentralized social network for work collaboration 

 Vocabulary I guess. But specifically, why post that?  

 because VC companies basically take money from investors and burn it trying to find a zinger that makes them a profit, and usually they all loose, it's like some kind of weird betting game 

 Yeah thanks, I misunderstood the original image.
