Got milk, bitchez?
I love that the milk is several weeks past its expiration date of Nov 30. Sour milk with lumps. Yum yum.
You of course know I left it that way intentionally ;-)

Kris Kondriateff...that gives me an idea.
Swindles are reaching a K Wave peak.
Before you make your holiday donations consider this
The American Red Cross, The United Way and UNICEF have all taken on the same characteristics as a government bureaucracy; a small group of insiders feeding at the trough, with little left over to carry out their original mandates.
Holliday Giving: The Best Bang For The Buck - The Salvation Army
Say what you will about the Red Cross but around here they are always there with clothes, blankets and shelter when people are burned out of their house or flooded . The salvation army not so much, mostly help alcoholics and drug addicts from what I see . Another great post WB .
One of the most efficient charities out there: http://www.worldvision.org
Mind if I use that?
nope
just don't point that thing at me!
i told my 30-something daughter i saw a MyLittlyPony with silky raonbow hair with the toys @ discountGroceries and she laughed
we could get one and put a horn on it...
I'll make the music, you made the lyrics, maybe we can get William to do the video.
You're amazing! Fast as hell, too! :-)
nice job William Banzai
Well spotted! I missed that.
Poor Ferdinand the Bull. He used to be such a sweet bull before he was corrupted.
Cog. I think that's Nov 30, 2007. Say Cheese.
My fucking silver dealer is jacking up commissions. Who knows of real banks that sell silver without the shit stains?
Ferdinand looks like Ben milked him.
The price of cornfeed was up for awhile. :>D
maybe you will find it next time. In fact I am sure that you will. yacht charter Thailand
Kyle Bass is the best, truest interview ever on CNBC
I live his verbal ticks. When he starts his sentence with "SO" it makes me think he is reallysaying, "Look you cheerleader for speculators, there are the fucking numbers. Get it through your head. I am not giving you a character judgement, just giving you the facts. Wrap it around your head please."
Kind of like when Ron Paul says "WELL" at the beginning of his sentences or when he finishes one with "BELIEVE ME".
I will be incorporating these Truth Ticks when I am putting a verbal hammer down.
It has become trendy in some circles to start an explanation with "So". I've noticed in several interviews lately. I have to admit, and I'm not gay, it's kind of sexy when Bass does it.
Obama's key word is "Look". When he starts a sentence with "Look" you know a lie is forthcoming.
I don't know man, that's pretty gay.
Yeah, I guess "sexy" was over the top. I meant, "cool".
Or... "Let me be clear" - the precursor to a twisted half truth.
Or I can't really recall but...
"I never intended to..."
'Let me be perfectly clear'....while adding buckets of mud.
LOL that's a pretty scrawny looking bull....must be due to the liquidity crunch
HA!
Sell by Nov 30!!
I want a new Unicorn Pony. The one I got last year only does the blue skittles and I don't like those. I would prefer a green skittle unicorn or maybe a yellow one.
I would love to have Banzai make a nice My Little Bernanke Pony and a Geithner, Corzine version as well.
I did a Bernanke horse for the derby. It made a killer mug.
<bow>
Thank you for all the entertainment sirrah.
How will Lord Blankfein justify big bonuses when GS stock is down -43% on the year?
Non-employee shareholders and Ferrari dealers want to know.
Right. Now, if you would kindly point out who is it that he has to justify himself to, I would be much obliged.
Just a guess, but, shareholders?
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-12-14/goldman-loses-at-least-37-partn...
Yeah. You'd think so, wouldn't you? You'd think years of being Stolperized has run its course.
Saving some billions on bonuses today may mean one or two additional French banks when they get hung up on the 95% off rack. Gotta think ahead.
French banks! Thinking ahead! That is un-American. GS staff should be blowing bonus $ on fine Italian imports like this...
These American's jobs depend on it!
"I wanna go fast"
Seriously though. How fast? German autobahn fast or rehypothecation disaster fast?
...shareholders..?
You wish...
You earn them every day when you are doing God's work. Apparently God pays pretty well and has some killer benefits if you work for Goldmans...not so much elsewhere.
Last minute Santa rally, a true tear-jerker, starring Jimmy Stewart, with the townsfolk bailing out the bank at the last minute.
no presents for you!
Long lumps of coal....
With EUR/USD sub-1.30, the EZ needs to launch a bullish EZ rumor early today to burn apart the EUR shorts.
Robotrader on the other side?
robo wouldn't know a short if it raised up and kicked him in the teeth...
He'd know a short if he looked in his lap.
You didn't get the memo: it is now the Santa Claws rally as he claws the shit out of the market while tumbling down the chimney of depression. No worries.
Yep, Santa Claw Back Rally. They will claw back any gains you had for the year.
Santa rally FOUND! futurama santa song with lyrics - YouTube
"Your mistletoe is no match for my TOW-missile!" :>D
I smell a "surprise", :)))! In all ernest, "usually" santa rallies start 3-5 days before Christams and end 1-2+ days after new year, I said "usually" so...don't blame me if it isn't comming!
Yea well 'usually' we dont have a world bank implosion going on either.
I am sure SANTA rally is starting next week
Maybe if the banks stop liquidating for a week before Christmas. Across Europe they're going on vacation and hitting the slopes in Zermatt and Davos. By now the bankers have probably scrambled enough change to afford the hotel. Need to have some more to buy lift tickets as well.
Either my internet is very slow, or that picture was supposedto unravel itself slowly by design.
Then again, what else is "by design"?
Tyler, you must post the interview with Kyle Bass from the idiot channel. I cannot believe they had him on. It was so simple. They can never pay it all back, Europe has to default and start over. Too late to do anything else.
This is great too if you haven't seen it. Kyle Bass....

Given the crazy swings we've seen in the past few months a 2-day rally could be as large as a 2-week one previously.
What we need now more than ever is anonymous billionaires buying bonds.
ANONYMOUS BILLIONAIRES BUYING BONDS!
Save us philanthropist overlords!
Looking for SANTA you gonna get SATAN
GOLD is the last man standing but it has violated major trend lines.
If if we get a close below $1600 its DEFLATION bitches !
Show some respect for the CHAIRSANTA!
Santa is a very thinly disguised Satan for children.
The Euro is done. Bernake swaps put to be gone soon enough.
The euro and the dollar will become the new zimbabwe. They dont even need to print stacks of paper. its all digital.
Everyone here has been right all along
SILVER BITCHEZZ
GOLD BITCHEZZ
Santa Rally was early with the 900 Dow Points.
Looks like they are going to kill anyone who bought for the Santa Rally. Just like they did for Thanksgiving. Doing the opposite of what people expect.
Doing the opposite of what people expect...
The (that) trend continues...
He's in a witness protection program because the SEC is investigating NFLX and Robo is singing..
Housing prices in the Hamptons may come down next year cuz those glorified fee generating salesmen (aka bankers/hedgefund managers) ain't doing so well this year. Though 2% of a billion is still nice pay, too bad there are a bunch of idiot pension fund managers out there willing to give these non performing douche bags money.
Commerzbank have just cancelled their Christmas Party - aaaaahhhhhh - poor things.
Wonder if they are one of the banks pleading for 8bnEuro "emergency" funding last night?
8 Large. That's a nice Christmas Party. Lots of hookers and blow.
Please wrap my paper money in money paper.
Actually, please put my new wrapping paper rolls in a bag, and wrap the bag with paper money.
I am buying today. Either we get a santa rally or I get to eat a shit sandwich for the holidays. Glutton for punishment I suppose.
Compulsive, maybe?
Compulsive gambler ?
Lots of EUR/USD shorts to fry/squeeze my bear friends (Citi the biggest-clawed amongst them). Tread with a light paw.
They just keep on lining up to get fried huh? Yea well Im not buying that theory myself.
Where's the Kyle Bass CNBC link?
This hitting the mainstream propaganda machine has to douse a lot of hopes.
"It's a disaster in the United States. It's a scary place." - Kyle Bass on BNN
Yeah. Sums it up well.
When Kyle hits CNBS it is time to go long the most dilapidated, hopeless EZ risk positions.
Ooooo and Robo takes another long trade 'for the sure-thing rally' right up the kornhole yet again!
Up the kornhole. Is funny because it's true.
it ain't Santa this year......It's DOMINICK! Buon Natale, ehh?
Cause Santa's raindeer can not climb the hills of Italy....

Just wanna know one thing WHERE IS THE BOTTOM OF SILVER AND GOLD TODAY?
i like to know it too :( ... maybe $1,600/oz and $29/oz ??
Already smashed through both those :(
Any ideas who is dumping all this? Is it all paper action?
This is corruption and manipulation :)
From what I read, Santa tried to eat gold and died. Pity.
Hey no rumors today..whats up......is Rudolf GAY? there I started one
Word in the herd is that Rudy swings both ways.
We are experiencing the ramifications of the same lesson that seemingly happens every generation- prestigous intellectuals announce that they have figured out how to trump the business cycle, but it will require massive government intervention, a 'group effort, if you will. This has happened over and over again throughout American history. And the outcome is virtually always the same- a huge hangover, and decades of stagnation and chaos until some refurbished theory becomes the new cult de jour.
Queue the deer in the headlights pic, Tyler!
No Santa? But what about the children?????? Think about the children!!!!!!
So oil... WTF? Bought that "rumor" of a closed Strait of Hormuz yesterday. Sold before close with a small loss. Today I would have been blow torched on DBO.
An instant classic, WB7. I almost barfed at the thought of soured milk chunks.
For your next act, may I be so bold as to suggest Corzine, Abelow, and Steenkamp, rendered as the "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" monkeys?
I did the three Goldman CEO Monkeys around Thanksgiving.
Ah, jeez. Guess that doesn't surprise me. You are prolific, and I struggle to keep up with ya! Anyway, keep up the good woik.
I encourage whatever help I can get ;-)
$28.80/oz
Tyler, I saw this video this morning. Someone is giving you a A BIG SHOUT OUT AND THANKS.
Silver Bells video for Zero Hedge and more
Merry Christmas!
$28.84/oz
It is possible for silver to get $40/oz until Christmas Day?
This Christmas Crash is a first in market history I believe.
That is notable.
I was thinking a crash might happen since everyone was so sure that it wouldn't. My shorts are looking nice right about now but I'd like to see some of these worthless stocks fall more.
Not to worry, I'm sure Santa Fraud will come to the rescue at 3pm...
Bernanke is a poltical animal. He understands that the Fed us currently being viewed as a wealth creator for the upper 10%.He doesn't want the Fed to be "the issue" of 2012.
It is an election year. He will not get involved in another QE until the S&P falls to around 900-950. That target happens when the EU start breaking apart.
Also the major difference between what is going to happen in Europe in 2012 versus what happened in the USA in 2008, is going to be the violence that accompanies this crash. What will catch people completely off guard is that the citizens of the EU take to the streets quickly, in great numbers and violently.
There were no molotov cocktails tossed in 2008. There will be in 2012.
Long Slingshots?
Pepper Spray ;)
Trebuchet
He also worrys about nasty rope burns under his beard line.
I agree with your sentiment and evaluation, lizzie, but it’s a fact that Bernanke already is involved in on-going QE, albeit clandestinely. For a political animal, he appears to be on the run. As Jim Willie put it (with Mises chart): The US Federal Reserve has fooled a lot of people into believing that the grand monetary pump and debt monetization project has been put on hold. The only thing that changed was their talking publicly about it. The money press has been working to the limit, never stopped.
I also take issue that the bottom rung on the high 10% income ladder (2009 earnings $112,124+), is coming out ahead in this Fed heist; I think those people are paying big time.

Santa Claus rallies occur AFTER Xmas, according Investopedia:
Definition of 'Santa Claus Rally'A surge in the price of stocks that often occurs in the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. There are numerous explanations for the Santa Claus Rally phenomenon, including tax considerations, happiness around Wall Street, people investing their Christmas bonuses and the fact that the pessimists are usually on vacation this week.

Santa Nanke is stealing from savers; his Wall Street Thi-elves, led by Blankfein the Gold-headed rein-man, robbing the investors.
“Now Dudley! Now, Corzine! now Dimon and Ruben! On Summers! on Romer, on Pickerell and Greenberg! To the vaults in the Treasury, out the Congressional Hall! Now, dash away!! Dash away! Dash away All!”
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the bags, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard them exclaim, ‘ere they drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, we had a good-night!"
I feel bad for Mommy if she has to kiss old Benny boy here.
Bears cancel Xmas.
SP500 daily chart resumes choppy downtrend. Opposite for USDX.
My long term indicators have continued to warn of USD strength and EURO weakness and these signals have increased since 2009. The overdue dollar rally should be substantial.
