Stanford MBAs in tech are fucking weird. I worked with a few, and had one for a CEO for 2 years. The gist of it is that they all sucked at tech but thought they didn't (trying to manage engineering teams in ridiculous micromanagy self important ways), were all very self centered, and all came from very wealthy families, being able to raise a few hundred thousands from "friends and family" (!?) and spending 4 day weekends in Tahoe and LA even though "we're bootstrapping so I'm only taking $30k a year right now".
I know, I know, anecdote != data. Having talked about it with friends, I know I'm not alone. I even see it mentioned in HN comments every once in a while (eg https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7083219).
