Just Because Washing Down Endless Daily Porn Surfing With Some Taxpayer Funded Happy Hour Never Felt So Good

Tyler Durden's picture




 

From a reader:

Surprised to find out that the tax payer may be footing the bill for the SEC’s bar tab.  Tried to grab a beer at the Gin Mill Bar in NYC the other night, but with 100 members of the SEC inside, it kinda killed the vibe.   See attached.    

Well, in all honesty this beats the AIG taxpayer funded trip to Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay. Plus, being so corrupt and so incompetent (telling someone you work for the SEC creates a whole new category in mental visualization) as the average SEC worker, is in fact hard work. These are traits that in a different century, Charles Darwin would likely say should be critical for sexual selection... cue porn jokes here.

And seriously, what better use of their time to SEC staffers have? Suddenly Goldman isn't hiring SEC drones direct into its Correlation and Mortgage trading desks. As for enforcement - well, they can always just read a blog or two and catch up on those criminals they fell like dealing with.

Now back to porn and bitching about a sub-$1 billion budget.

Can you imagine what's crawling on those SEC keyboards and in the peanut bowl at the bar?  Sick phucks.

Tyler,

If you were working at the SEC, wouldn't you want to surf porn all day and go drink your life away? They're constantly reminded about how impotent and useless they are. Why don't you give these regulators a break? :)

Just trying to see if there is a copyright problem. Love the image. But all the work so far is original by me and I have asked permission from one artist on the greatest trillion dollar FRN out there and he has not responded. May have got the wrong guy in terms of email but may publish it with attribution i.e. copyright to his image anyway and see what happens!

Check out the store anyway and spend away!

www.zazzle.com/Howard_Beale --Hey, it's a really worthy cause! Just wait until the market swings 300 points all the time again. They are going to need big bucks to add servers and bandwidth. No one told me this. I just know that when the market is crashing, the site crashes. Simple math.

This thing is starting to get somewhere. How does everyone feel about bumper stickers? Should I bother?...please go to the Zazzle comment section and let me know. TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT and I will deliver to the best of my abilities.

Hey Leo--smoke it, solar man. Where did you get the image? I need to know if it is copyrighted since some of the guys want it on a T-Shirt or Mug. I've got so many things going that in my concept the store is not going to be just a fundraiser, but an entity for all of us to contribute ideas to and participate in as long as ZH exists. As long as items sell, and sales are starting to happen now, then I am committed to supporting the gang. And those of you employed should get your Timmay mugs, the top seller.

So let me know where you found the SEC porn and I might be able to create a product. So far, it's all original and I would LOVE IT if anyone out there has a flair for Photoshop and wants to submit graphics or captions to do so. I'm only one person for crying out loud. Some of you must have a creative side where you play in digital imaging! 

Just do it. www.zazzle.com/Howard_Beale

Seriously, I have had no time at the blog posting my rants because I am in the groove. Once we (and I mean that in the collective here of the community) have at least 100 original items (that does not include duplicates of the same theme), then I'll get back to saying what I think and actually reading some posts. Until then, the impending Sovereign Debt crisis will just seem like nothing to the idiotic stock market. It sure feels like April 2007....uh, as Bernanke said, I don't see subprime as a systemic risk. Thus my dark IMMORAL HAZARD Shirt/Mug yesterday. Buy one. Your grandchildren will have a piece of history.

Soapbox--OUT!

well there is a non-commerical copyright use extension which mean a no go for anything in the store. That doesn't mean I can't do a similar item, since digital images need only be changed by a certain percentage (like the entire fill behind the logo) for it to be valid.

The SEC sucked/sucks because we suck at reforming independence, pay, incentives and because we let GE host

our presidential debates. Brian Williams doesn't ask questions about the SEC's mission. He does talk about light bulbs, however.

bottom-up. The private, corporate Presidential commission on debates must go BEFORE a third party candidate rises. Because when they

rise, the debate commission will do everything they can to knock them off the stage.

 

And: The SEC deserves a happy hour. The taxpayers should pay for that and give them a bonus of 20% of all the fish they fry. Then, you'll see fish really get fried. Until that day.....won't happen.

Congratulating themselves a bit early on a job well done on Goldman??  I can almost chuckle at that.

Why should they be different from the rest the "citizens" that congratulated themselves early and had banks willing to lend more than they needed to allow them to do so?????

An established mindset once adopted spells doom unless we change course.

Hey RC, you must have some great ideas for the ZH store. Shout it out...to me at the Zazzle site. I don't have enough time to check out the posts that relate to when I post new items because I am on digital image overdrive. Submit some slogans, ideas, original graphics.

www.zazzle.com/Howard_Beale

With enough sales, I may even get the ability to use the ZH logo on other items. Tyler is pondering it for now but I have women that want fitted tees with the logo and other items as well. That will not happen unless the sales are good enough for them to hand it over for my ultimate want--a ZH refrigerator magnet and reusable green shopping bag.

As I told Tyler, magnets hold things up, except currencies and equity markets. So join me in the creation process! I have a week's worth in the bag right now but diveristy, simplicity, and down right funny shit is needed as I get serious with a lack of sleep.

And my big brother is probably monitoring me right now to shut the fuck up and get some much needed rest.

G'NIGHT!

hey howard, i commend you for your hard work on zazzle (never heard of it before).

the merchandise is kinda masculine. so i bought a gift certificate for myself. cause i don't know if i would offend my family and friends yet, with this message.

i personally like capped sleeves T-shirts. not so large of logo on the chest area, cause it draws attention there.

more of a tennis style ball cap. i could maybe design a cycling cap, for ZH.

but kiss, kiss for effort. look forward to submission.

Thanks velo--you know everything in there can be made into a woman's shirt--peruse the options on styles and colors. I will modify some up there with a smaller left adjusted image. How about a small Timmay behind bars? http://www.zazzle.com/ladies_timmay_in_jail_shirt-235409298005959636

You can select the color, shirt type, etc. from the drop down menus. Female, Male, kids... 

I will also make some other smaller logo things and put them up in the next few days as ladies items. The Zazzle hat selections bite. Just the embroidered one and the ugly sports one. Working hard on all this stuff!
