Title: Hey, we almost missed A-Cap's birthday
Post by: wombat on February 06, 2011, 01:13:50 am: He's probably too busy doing capitalism to check in, but I think we should have cake without him anyway.

Post by: jay-ell on February 06, 2011, 02:20:02 am: I talked to him on chat yesterday, and told him happy birthday in advance. He is still alive, but he is busy living life instead of posting on the internet, so more power to him.

Post by: littlefallsmets on February 06, 2011, 02:24:36 am: I tossed the dude a facebook happy birthday, thinking my odds better of it reaching him on a timely basis there as opposed to here.

I structured that sentence oddly but I'm too sick to think of a better approach to phrasing at this time.

Happy Birthday, Gordon Gekko.

You know, I haven't seen that movie or it's sequel, but every time I'd see the commercial for the sequel I would think of A-cap when that Shia LaBeouf kid came on, so now I sort of a kin the two together for some reason.

Happy Birthday A-cap. May it be a good year.

Post by: Arachno-capitalist on February 16, 2011, 01:15:23 am: Yeah I've been busy making things happen, but thanks for the birthday wishes. Side-show, I've watched that movie a dozen times by now. Its pretty realistic for what it is, and if you realize that it is actually a dramatic recreation of the Lehman Bros collapse, and how it advances the Goldman Sachs conspiracy theory, it is all the more enjoyable.

What movie are we talking about?

"Gordon Gekko is the main antagonist of the 1987 film Wall Street and the antihero of the 2010 film Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, both by director Oliver Stone."

Post by: lprkn on February 17, 2011, 11:31:05 pm: I enjoyed it without ever seeing the first one. I felt that it was a cartoon of a real profession, which is most movies, really. It was an enjoyable cartoon.

Post by: Arachno-capitalist on February 17, 2011, 11:33:06 pm: Gekko was the most cartoony. Shia or whoever played a realistic enough prop trader.
