Nerdtrons of the World Unite!

Be sure to speak in indiscernible patois, all the while thinking of philosophy and the current state of the NYC art scene. When blogging, use words that no one else knows, in order to feel cavalier about oneself. You do know, it isn’t much fun unless someone is feeling dumb.

The internet is a playground filled with adult children, who compete with one another for the praise of ignoble/base human beings, of the lowest order. Nonetheless, every so often, all of the banter produces something of value. Believe it or not, I am grateful for having an opportunity to discuss world events or the current state of my neighbors lawn with obsequious people. It’s like drinking a fine Bordeaux, out of a juice cup with a straw.

I’ve been running iBankCoin for two years now and have made legitimate connections with people that I am glad to consider “friends.” Despite being afraid of meeting “people from the internet,” I have done so and intend on doing so again. “The Fly” is quite the social dragonfly in real life, despite his “interesting”/bellicose persona, here on the internets.

Some fun facts about “Dr. Fly”

  • He doesn’t really eat sandwiches, at least not multiple sandwiches at the same time.
  • He rarely drinks Monster Energy soda anymore. Instead, he drinks low-cal Red Bulls.
  • He obsessively brushes his teeth about 10 times per day.
  • And, finally, he doesn’t really slap people in the face with hot slices of pizza, then proceed to kick them down empty elevator shafts.

The whole point of iBankCoin is to do and say what is considered taboo, within the finance genre of the internet, while sticking sharp pencils in the eyes of enemies, as the wins pile up.

In a word: WHERESMYROOTBEER ?

    You da man! Much more interesting if you’re stuffing slices of pizza in faces of the fools. Why isn’t this biotch gapping up more? Aaghhh… Patience. Keep it coming.

    My lawn looks pretty good. A few patches of dandelions perhaps but you know I like my dandelion wine.

    I was out at a bar over the weekend and overheard one person pose the question to a group of people, “if you could go out and get drunk with any person in history who would it be?” Naturally, one said Wade Boggs because of his untouchable Miller Lite legend, but two friends simultaneously looked at each other at the same time and said, “Dr….” and “The….,” then looked at the one who asked the question and said, “FLY!” (OMG!!!!)

    The giggling that ensued was so uncontrollable they had loaded potato skins shooting out of their noses. The high-fiving must have put them out of commission for the daily Starcraft game. Good times.

    Was able to locate one bottle of IBC root beer, but it’s gone now according to this clip. I’m thinking that one of your crew has some other bottles in hiding to break out on Thursday for the official two year celebration.

    Damn it Fly, I got all excited reading the headline and thought to my self that “Wow, Fly was busy playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 today too …”. But clearly that was not to be. Would there be a probability that Le Fly would entertain the thought of playing X360?

    The only regret I have is that I didn’t find this place over a year ago.

    Too bad you really don’t kick old men down elevators.
    If only your friendship with Howard was a myth too, it would at least be a wash.

    Has it been two years?! Congrats Fly & Co. Happy birthday, iBC!

    I recall the day Fly announced he was closing the old blog. I was genuinely depressed. I’m glad you started iBC am proud to be a part of this motley crew.

    I’ve learned much and have made friends along the way. I’m thankful for each of you, past and present. Love this joint. Pass the tissues.

    Long live iBC!

    Seeing lots of chatter………wait, can one actually see chatter? Anyhoo, seeing lots of chatter about a possible head and shoulders pattern forming in the major indexes. Could be a repeat of July where everyone and their brudda was watching it and talking/writing about it. The pattern completed with a break of the neckline but then failed immediately and the only thing broken was the necks of the shorts as their lifeless bodies twitched spasmodically at the end of the ropes they hung themselves with.

    Owning FAZ is equivalent to strolling the streets of New York wearing a Mets jacket with the name “Madoff” on the back.

    That is of course to illustrate the likely hood of being kicked into an empty man hole.
