GM's thread about nothing (29 Viewers)

Even still, many traders don't understand that they are to trades what lesbian North Carolinians are to wedding rings.

In regards to short-term traders playing a 'no win' game. I think I have it..."Short-term active traders are fighting a no win battle. Despite this fact, most short term traders are unaware that their action is akin to a naive school boy spending his allowance on a rigged carnival game. :unsure:

Short-term traders are like a drunken TRE playing online blackjack. Eventually they're going to wake up in the morning and hope it all was a dream.

 
Short term active traders are playing blackjack, paying for trades which are usually even money at best. Like gamblers, you may find the enviable few who are up right now, but in the end, the house always wins. Be the house.

Frosty - You can likely take the movie quote category AND piss Marvin off at the same time with "Hello, My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father, prepare to die."WIN-WIN.

I was focusing more on the piss Marvin off portion of the category.

I think I would have to be interested in that thread first.
 
Short term trading is like peeing in the toilet while drunk and blindfolded. Sure, you'll get some whiz in the toilet, but it's going to get messy.

"Short term trading is much like banging away at a 22 year old chick. Sure it is fun in the beginning, but eventually you fall in love with her, end up marrying her, realize that you have nothing in common, and get divorced leaving you all alone with half your money."
 
Short-term traders are like some guy who gets complimented on his looks by his internet friend's tipsy wife via text video. At first it seems really cool and they maybe even walk a little bit taller than their diminutive frames would normally allow. But at some point they're going to realize that she lives 1500 miles away. And she's married. With two children. And she was actually probably more than just a little tipsy. And then you have another shot, but ditch the idea to film it and send it to anyone since it seems like so much silliness at that point. Though that doesn't stop you from doing a few more shots plus Coors Lite keg beers cause #### that's all they have at this hayseed party and now your'e getting hiccups and realizing it was probably time to go home a long time ago. And then you go home alone AGAIN, which is really all the more pathetic. Next thing you know those "high flying" traders are still at the office at 8pm eating ####ty cold pizza doing a menial task for one of their eight bosses (TPS reports anyone??) and posting to a magic football board for entertainment.

Actually wait. They're nothing like that.

One of my best friends rescued a couple of beagles about 10 years ago, Bean and Hank. Hank is a special kind of pup, sweet as can be, but scared of everything and mentally slooooooow. A couple of days ago, Bean had to be put down at the ripe age of 11, and I was really concerned for Hank. But about a year ago, my friend Erin took on her mom's mutt-dog, Sam, when her mom couldn't care for him any longer.

Looks like Hank's in good hands.

As you should. I tried to cornhole him (with notice) during my 10 year reunion in 2009 but he had left to go take a kid to the doctor or something lame like that.
 
Didn't realize that Sewanee was in the same conference as the mighty Austin College Kangaroos. At the same time my one high school buddy was going to Sewanee, I had another that was a grad assistant at Austin College. It's all YSR up in this #####.
