    Anyone going to see the movie Wall Street 2? It seems like it'll be retarded since the whole point of the first movie was Charlie Sheen's moral dilemma and discovery of how Gordon Gecko was... now that we the viewers know the real Gecko from the first movie, what's the conflict going to be? We know the lengths his greed will take him.

      Clearly you haven't seen the trailers. Gecko preys on the gullible enthusiasm of a keen youngster.
      Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

        The Best And The Brightest. I eagerly await the financial meltdown your cohort will produce in ~10 years.

            Given that the person was leaving, I doubt it was his motivation...

              Citation? And who says you or your cohorts have comparable IQ's? Let me see an IQ test, KH

                No. Buttering you up to take his job offer, though. Was it a good offer?

                  I know my number, and it is significantly above that...

                        "Rock Star" as in heavy drinking, lots of sex, and crazy antics?

                          I got pulled onto a special high-priority project with a 10-man "A-team" development SWAT team on my third week with the company. While I've been described as "awesome", no one has yet used the phrase "rock star".

                          I will contemplate suicide.

                            Yes, but only at work.

                                Congratulations KH!

                                Idiots who wish they were rock stars are being idiots but it seems clear to me that your job is pretty awesome.
