    The Movie Thread

    I'm always looking for movies with <b>brilliantly unexpected twist endings</b>. I'll name my favorites, and hopefully someone can point out a few more good ones that I've missed: Top shelf: Lucky Number Slevin The Sixth Sense Angel Heart Honorable Mentions: The Skeleton Key...

    <img src=http://www.7trailers.com/thumbnails/last%20chance%20harvey.jpg> THIS is a hokey chick flick? No shit?! Damn, it's a good thing you warned me! I guess me & the guys down at the gun club are gonna have to pick something else for tonight. I'm thinking we should check out <i>Runaway...

    It's possible... That's why midgets are on the path to extinction in first world nations- When was the last time you saw a young midget?

    The Movie Thread

    I get what you're saying, but you <i>have</i> seen Lucky Number Slevin, right? Everything else fits together so perfectly, except for that one scene. The protagonist being such a calculating & meticulous character, it just feels completely out of place for him to go and commit a seemingly random...

    Just saw <i>S. Darko.</i> For a while there I thought it was on track to win a Clerks 2 award for surprisingly decent sequel to an impossible to follow original... but the way they didn't even bother tying up any of the loose ends, I've got to give this a Babylon A.D. award instead.(Cool movie...

    About SOCIALISM in Cuba. I am Cuban..ask me about my experience

    I'm well aware of this particular philosophy, however I should point out the existence of an opposing view that holds money & power as completely unnecessary to the vagina acquisition process. The opposing philosophy states that all you have to do is go up to a chick and flick your tongue at...

    Is homosexuality a choice?

    Damn, you got us! I was hoping nobody would figure it out, but now I suppose I might as well admit it: The 55% of us who picked the 'not a choice' poll option are all flaming homosexuals. Welcome to EliteTwinker.com! <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2421323>

    The psychology of the ET contrarian indicators

    Holy crap, I truly never saw that one coming! I would have never guessed Stock Trad3r and Port were one and the same, since he really does alter up their 'personalities'. Trad3r practically never gets belligerent- even in response to direct insults... while port goes around deliberately...

    Is homosexuality a choice?

    This part is very easy to explain: Let's say you have an unfortunate LoZZZer who can only attain sexual satisfaction by molesting children. <b>No matter what laws are enacted, someone's going to have to suffer.</b> Either the pedophile suffers a lifetime of sexual frustration... or dozens-...

    Is homosexuality a choice?

    I see your point, and what I meant to say is that <i>some small element</i> of choice seems to exist in this sexually ambidextrous minority. To clarify: I never chose to be straight- it's just who I am. Zero decision making involved, zero choice. On the other hand, a sexually ambidextrous...

    Puts on TLT

    I'm no quant, but I'd expect the time decay on a long TLT put position is likely to be even worse than the ETF decay of TBT shares.

    Free cars for poor

    What, no free gas? That's total bullshit! :eek: Making these poor people pay for their own gas is just plain heartless. Yet another example of The Man keeping a brotha down.

    Is homosexuality a choice?

    Ok, this thread has actually caused me to modify my opinion a bit. I believed until recently that you can't choose your sexual orientation any more than you can 'choose' your ethnicity- and I still think this holds true for the majority of the population. However, there's apparently a...

    Is homosexuality a choice?

    Looks like I'm not the only one here who's good with patterns. After thinking about this, I realized something else: You know how you frequently see women who <i>could</i> be hot if only they didn't overeat so much? The ones who would be pretty damn attractive if only they weren't lugging...

    GM is going to 150 bucks per share soon!

    I'd expect GM's trading range tomorrow to be in the neighborhood of 30 to 50 cents/share. Very widely held big household names tend not to crumble too far below that point on the first day after devestating news. (BSC/LEH/AIG/etc...) I'd explain some of the reasons why I think this occurs if...

    GM is going to 150 bucks per share soon!

    Peil, check the fine print: It's not the kind of reverse split you're used to. 100 shares dilute to 1, but the price remains as is. _____ "For the deal to work, GM has to reach agreement with the United Auto Workers to swap stock for about $10 billion of the $20 billion in payments GM must...
