GM's thread about nothing (35 Viewers)

[cosjobs]

Nights like tonight are why I love to gamble.I closed out a round robin ticket by 3s and 5s with a walkoff grand slam by Oakland in the 10th and a third out for Detroit in the bottom of the 9th, winning run at second and the right fielder dives two rows into the seats and comes up with the final out. Thank you very much 25 units

Not that it compares, but are you playing my ####?

I am trying to talk my book into carrying it. I have been envious all season.

 

[Frostillicus]

I have been envious all season.

Me too. I've been reduced to $10 a play.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I love frostys ####.

 

[kevzilla]

I can recommend spending an evening at cosjob's place, watching assorted sports. I got all of the entertainment with none of the financial exposure on Saturday evening.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

Negotiate some of that #### for me Holmes.

Sorry GB.

Congrats GB

 

[YSR]

I love frostys ####.

I really was scared that I was jinxing things whenever I tailed, so I didn't play anything the last two days.

 

[King_Kelly]

Bob.

2/3 of the way through Bloody May here. Anniversary, AngryWifes birthday and Mothers Day all happen in a ten day window. So far we've managed to avoid severe disappointment.

Seriously. I also didn't play that one day a couple of weeks back when you went undefeated.

Should easily be the 20 pointer...with Gordon Lightfoot, Jim Croce and Don McLean immediately behind.

That's weird. I've got daughter's birthday, anniversary, and mothers day all within a 10 day window.

Tanner, you need to get your cat in on this

Oh he's been on Chatroulette before...

The one [random chat session] that was most disturbing to me was a couple of college-aged guys. One guy was holding a cat while pointing an airsoft gun at the cat's head.

The disturbing part was that I reached over and picked up one of my cats and held it up to the cam. The guy on the other end went like this and pointed the gun at my cat/cam. I then held up my cat's front paws like "hands up!".

Then we all laughed.

I think I need to reevaluate some things about my life.

Even now at Portland Winterhawks' games, there are senior-citizen fans who remember the glory days of the Portland Buckaroos minor-league pro franchise,

Did Buck Owens play goalie?

Define "really".

I just might do that. They have some great players on this team. Not that I could name many of them, but I know they are pretty good. Tim Rattie? Something Morrow? Adam Deadmarsh?

Sven Bärtschilooks like game 6 will be your last chance.

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.

 

[Bogart]

Last minute changes to the divorce paperwork is giving me huge tired head.

Was suppose to be done by April 15th, and we still have the final court date ahead of us.

The funny thing is now it's the ex that wants things done faster, now that she has a new boyfriend. All the feet dragging she did early is ####### up her groove now.

I did join a gym last night, so I have that going for me.

Hang in there, Bogart...

Yesterday, I challenged you all to find me an egg casserole dish and you didn't let me down.

Today's challenge - Write a better line than this (writer's block):

"Even still, many traders don't understand that they are the equivalent of 1st graders trying their hand at professional football".

I don't like it. I need something catchier. But I'm having trouble. I recognize this is a lame analogy, but I can't reach back and find better.

".....equivalent of clydesdale horses trying their hand at tight rope walking"?

".....equivalent of the tone deaf trying out for American Idol"?

Help.

Most traders do not realize they are part of the 99% and will probably lose their money upwards to the 1%

 

[Marvin]

Many traders are like the kid on the left.

I think the rest of us have clearly demonstrated why GM specifically asked Bogart for help

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Most traders don't have the expertise to evaluate the market and make the proper decision. They are like a man that has fallen in love with a hot 22 year old but inside they're broken and they end up pushing her away.

And I can't come up with anything....the pressure was just too much.

 

[Sarnoff]

Bonk

I think that's happened to me

 

[YSR]

like a hoarder trying his hand at throwing away a packet of ketchup.

ETA: What exactly are you trying to say here? Is the trader just plain not good at certain things, or is he just naive and still learning some things?
