Everything about this is so wrong we almost feel guilty just linking to it. Almost.

    I almost feel guilty about reading it. Almost.

    I love offensive humor, but humor implies that it’s funny to begin with. This isn’t.

    I assume that the link is NSFW?

    Nothing like alienating a few loyal readers during the holidays.

    Could not agree more with IA @ 10:40. This is just dumb.

    I think pretty much anything involving Chinamen is funny. You people are overexposed to the sensitivity police.
    This is a very funny line: “And I decided right then and there to make the next two years a living hell for John Thain.”
    It would be better if it was written by Stan O’Neal, though.

    (which was a disappointment for me since I brought in my laptop into the office and it has a mobile internet connection …. to surf and work simultaneously… banned sites C’mon!!!).

    “Jeff Skilling” on Newsgroper is just consistently not funny.

    O’Neal obviously could not be sitting alphabetically next to Thain

    O’Neal could have been next to Thain almost as easily as Skilling.
    After all HBS’s quota for that year could have excluded not just all Smiths, Steins, Talbots, etc. but also Peregrines, Quaaludes, and Richters.
