Why are you wearing a sundial? Because: “It reminds me that time is something eternal. It is part of our environment and written in the solar system. It’s not just the alarm clock at 5 PM or the the number of minutes you last during sex. That’s why I wear a sundial.”
Why do you wear a sundail?
This is the most random thread ever. Enter in it every night and you have threads within threads. From a page for pick up lines, to 2 pages for farmer compensation, to a page about wtaches. Who knows what tomorrow has in store.
There should be a disclaimer that the title doesn’t necessary reflect the content in the thread.
I dont wear watch at all. Actually, i hate wearing any status symbols. Simple is better.
^that’s what she said.
^ That didn’t make sense at all.
^ Agreed!
Lockheed is drinking again.
on another tangent. another great accessory for a BSD is his business card. our company issues standard ones, but I went ahead and made my own. mine has subtle off-white coloring, tasteful thickness, and a watermark.
^ I’m trying to decide if you’re serious.
That’s nothing…mine is eggshell with Romalian type. What do you think?
You guys carry business cards? I stopped years ago. Everyone always asks for them and I dont want people bothering me.
Geez, I sure hope that’s not a euphemism for your jizz. 
For those of you that didn’t get the reference, you suck.
Edit: Financial professional pro-tip: Whenever anyone, anywhere mentions business cards make a reference to this scene:
Patrick Bateman: New card. What do you think? Craig McDermott: Whoa-ho. Very nice. Look at that. Patrick Bateman: Picked them up from the printer’s yesterday. David Van Patten: Good coloring. Patrick Bateman: That’s bone. And the lettering is something called Silian Rail. David Van Patten: It’s very cool, Bateman, but that’s nothing. Look at this. Timothy Bryce: That is really nice. David Van Patten: Eggshell with Romalian type. What do you think? Patrick Bateman: Nice. Timothy Bryce: Jesus. That is really super. How’d a nitwit like you get so tasteful? Patrick Bateman: [Thinking] I can’t believe that Bryce prefers Van Patten’s card to mine. Timothy Bryce: But wait. You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Raised lettering, pale nimbus. White. Patrick Bateman: Impressive. Very nice. David Van Patten: Hmm. Patrick Bateman: Let’s see Paul Allen’s card. Patrick Bateman: [Thinking] Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh, my God. It even has a watermark. Luis Carruthers: Is something wrong, Patrick? You’re sweating.
My man Joel Bauer has the best business card I have ever seen.
Zing!
yowza!
You replied with a top notch quote in context, so you moved up a notch.
This forum is the only male-dominated organization on earth where well known movie quotes go completely unnoticed. It’s sad when memorable quotes don’t get their due. It’s criminal for anyone in finance to not recognize anything from Wall Street (only the first one) or American Psycho. It should be part of the CFA requirements.
Hate to burst your bubbles, but 95% of people can’t differentiate between a valuable and fake watch. Of the 5% remaining, half of them think those that buy expensive watches are arrogant pricks. Of the 2.5% that remain (that think buying expensive watches is BSDesque), 90% of them are men. Of the 0.25% remaining, most of them are average to ugly chicks. 15% are HCB is a fair measure. So you have a 0.04% chance of meeting a HCB that understands how valuable your watch is. I don’t like those odds. I’d rather buy bottles and show off in clubs.
Well that bumped the conversation back a page…
Most people got it. If nothing else, it has come up/been explained multiple times on Water Cooler. In the future when i see a quote:
“I GOT IT LOL!”
So you’re saying there’s a chance?!
That’s the only movie quote I drop…
But seriously, this thread is awesome, the forum’s aggregate ADD really shines and here… and Black Swan’s boner for farming. And where has Blake been?
