Types of People You Can't Trust

Sweep_the_Leg · January 30, 2015, 7:38pm

The other thread reminded me, I’m wary of trusting the Bolsheviks. Those guys are assholes.

krnyc2008 · January 30, 2015, 7:46pm

How many have you actually met?

Sweep_the_Leg · January 30, 2015, 7:53pm

42

Edit: I guarantee anyone from England could tell me why that number is significant.

krnyc2008 · January 30, 2015, 7:53pm

So basically all of them

Does that include sand nAggers?

Far fewer asian names than you guys make out.

Remember this guy? http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/jeffrey-chiang-you-will-never-in-your-life-ever-work-on-wall-street

He’s on the CFA ban list too haha! The fallout for this story is so bad that after 6 years I can still pick his name out of a list.

Never trust a man who can dance - sorry bchad

igor555 · January 31, 2015, 6:33pm

how do we know know chad is a good dancer? all we know he likes to go dancin…

former_trader · January 31, 2015, 7:05pm

He’s Brazilian. It’s like asking how do you know if an Asian is good at kung fu.

igor555 · January 31, 2015, 7:30pm

chad is Brazilian?! gtfo

krnyc2008 · January 31, 2015, 7:31pm

Hi is not Brazililian. His gf is.

bchad · February 1, 2015, 12:55am

I’m not Brazilian, krnyc is right that my GF is.

I did live in Brazil several years and many of my Brazilian friends say that I am more Brazilian than they are, so even if I don’t have the passport, I did absorb a lot of the culture. Dancing among other things.

As for whether I’m any good or not, I don’t think you’d trust me to give an accurate statement, so I’ll just suggest this logic: if someone isn’t any good at dancing, how much fun is it to go out and do it several nights a week??

bchad, my friend you are living the dream. having been around and with brazilian women you are one lucky man. some of the best women in the world. have to cherish them. congrats

I have also been with Russian women (my previous GF and one or two before her). There’s a lot to like about Russian women too, particularly their intelligence and willingness to be sexy, but ultimately I find some of the differences in cultural expectations a little too difficult to bridge.

I sometimes say things about Russian women that are perhaps more negative than they truly deserve, but mostly that’s my own defense mechanism to remind myself not to be too overpowered by the things I find attractive about them. They have a nice combination of femininity, intelligence and are generally very cultured, which I respond to and which they tend to like about me as well.

In my adult life, I’ve found I alternate between my attraction to Russians/ex-Soviet types and Brazilians/Latin types. Both are very sexy. In my experience, the Russians/ex-Soviet types tend to be more intelligent and more interesting to talk to; the Brazilians/Latinas tend to be sweeter and a bit more relaxed to be around. There’s always a little bit of “the grass is always greener,” but one thing that makes a big difference is that my Portuguese is near-fluent, whereas my Russian was never very good, and I suspect I’ve forgotten virtually everything by now.

In other words, an honorary Brazilian.

Firstly, I said “blood is thicker than water unless your family are a shower of cunts” which is very different from referring to my own family as a shower of cunts.

Secondly, it’s not actually that offensive a phrase. It just means a group of people who you know but wouldn’t necessarily chose to spend a lot of time with but still have a connection to. Depending on the context it can even be a compliment. Even in the most offensive context it is nowhere near as offensive and loaded as the N word.

Thirdly, i was the only person to question your comment because I was the only one not to get the South Park reference.

There must be some half Russian half Brazilian beauties wandering around NYC?

Why isn’t John Rogers name on this list? Private reprimand?

And yes, it was supposed to be a reference to South Park Wheel of Fortune. I figured that since we’ve posted the video before, everybody would get the reference.

Strangely, though, the only person who had a problem with it was the guy who calls his family “a shower of cunts”.
