That neck has me all excited that Thanksgiving is fast approaching.
nice ass
Fuck you @1 that was my spot
Also, where are the Noel sisters when there’s a bowl of apples to be had?
Neigh.
@4 FTW
No socks is the new killing it.
“How do you like them apples?”
The polo shirt and loafers says “casual Friday” the neck fat says “fuck my skin folds”
TGFD will try a caption…
Summers: “I have an apple here in my lap. How about if one of you lads comes over here and bobs for it.”
The Guy from Delaware
Jabba the Hut has Luke Skywalker for lunch.
@4 won it so decisively I don’t know how anyone could beat that. Well played sir/madam!
“And then I said, Timmay, let me SHOW you what I think…”
The Royal Order Of European Man Whores.
-Deuce
…at least he’s awake.
I never realized apples were fattening!!
BHO
Naked@8– you complete me.
I got dibs on the couch!
Is he sleeping? His eyes are open. Do you think he can hear us? Shit this is weird.
“The caller ID says Waggoner”
Summers: “Let it go to voicemail”
Don’t answer that – it’s Ben.
“DOUCHEBAG!! The fucking mute button was NOT on!!”
That phone appears to fascinate those other two apparatchiks.
Revenge of the Nerds, 20 years later
Hit the Red button. We’ll punk Putin.
“How many f@g$ does it take to dial into a conference call?”
“Here’s a stimulus package for you”
Why is Larry meeting with John Clayton, Matt Leinart, and Bill Lumbergh?
To the guy bending over: That move will not be enough to hide your burgeoning member.
Forget the caption… Would you look at these schmucks! This country is fucked.
Woody Allen is running GM now?
8 FTW
In a final act of desperation, Larry brought in the Lollipop Guild to evaluate GM’s chances of profitability.
No socks, izod shirt, wrinked kackis, old black sport coat with jeans. Is this the IT department?
Ah, Big Ol’ Lar’s just checking out the fucktard in sneakers off-lens to the left. He knows he’d rip up Woody Allen in the armchair.
y’all makin me moist.
-Ruth Madoff
We’ve really achieved a lot–bought some nice little car companies for the tax payers, vertically thinking to add some banks and a really neat insurance conglomerate. Now all we have left to do to make the plan really work, is to put you, Lar, in charge of the nation’s monetary system….
Larry: “I’ve got a Werther’s Original in my pocket, come sit on my lap and try to find it”
Do not play pocket pool in my presence.
Car Czar: So tell me why you think you’d be good as Fed Chairman?
Economy Czar: Because I am the smartest man in the country.
CC: What would you say was your greatest weakness?
…
This couch is comfy. Naptime.
do you notice no one is speaking? WE’RE SAFE!
Seriously, why is that dude packing heat?
Summers: Dare.
Rattner: Okay…I dare you to jerk off with your left hand for five seconds.
Sperling: Hold on. Let me grab a seat.
“Penguins can’t fly planes!”-Steve
“Quack quack quack quack” -Larry

Oh, I, uh, I disagree. You’ve, uh, you’ve been living in America too
long. You’ve forgotten what it’s like to have no oranges.
No socks Thursday, no pants Friday.
Holy sh*t the guy from Arli$$ is the Car Czar? WTF?!?!?
http://sharetv.org/images/arli/kirbycarlisle-turnerjimi-char.jpg
Them apples are too shiny, them interns’ asses are too tight, Ben on the phone is too squawky. Damn it, get me outa here!
Larry: Larry, go to a mirror!
I’m glad Obama brought us into the age of diversity in the highest ranks of federal government.
Wow, I guess apples don’t agree with Larry’s stomach… Well, he’s a quick thinker and used his socks to clean up the mess. But… think Michelle is going to notice the brown spot.
Larry: Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t realize 976 numbers charged more for group jobs…
no caption, just questions:
(1) is the fonz making a comeback in politics?
(2) who’s the d-bag that wore jeans and sneaks?
(3) when did david hyde pierce leave “fraiser”?
so many questions, so little time…
@29 FTW
Four nerds on the brink of finding out that their collective Adult Friend Finder voice Mailbox is once again, empty.
brando
S-Rat: “Do I threaten to call the creditors’ committee again?”
Mooseknuckles: “I think it is on the speed dial”
Jaba: “do my feet sweat less in deer skin loafers or in calf skin loafers?… Gosh, I can use a banana split right now…”
But 30 is right on, and 8 wins in the DB context.
“so that’s the little red button…you know we could put an end to this whole crisis if we push it…”
Is that a Norman Rockwell original?
Is that phone just very big or are all those people just very small?
Seriously, who are these midgets?
Why can’t Boner Boy shave and iron his pants?
Why can’t this other clown get a haircut?
Why can’t this lard ball put socks on?
God I love DB comments.
“OK now read that order back to me!”
“Three blondes, two brunettes, two redheads, a donkey and a midget for Geithner”
“You got it all right except the last part is A DONKEY FOR THAT MIDGET GEITHNER”.
“OK now read that order back to me!”

Bizzaro White House: The only photo in existence where Larry is the only one with eyes wide open.
Solemnly staring ahead and completely disengaged from his body. With doll-eyed obsequiousness, Sumner replied to the barrage of questions in only monosyllabic whispers. In such uncertainty the clarity of one’s personal nadir can be strangely comforting he thought, spinning a disassociated internal dialogue deeper and deeper. Suddenly, the urgency on the end of the other line jostles him awake… Sumner growls; “There’s no fucking deal ‘till we get proof of life”… “I want a finger wrapped in today’s paper, or you won’t see a fucking dime.” He had these battles before, and he knew with perfect certainty he’d see another. Meanwhile the guy in the back continues to touch himself…I guess we all have different ways of dealing with the pressure… Scene
Bess, This is a rich post. Look at the volume of comments. Keep them coming.
I love you,
I’m just amazed to see Larry Summers awake for once.
@56– that’s not david hyde pierce, it’s the rockefaker guy in a new alias.
Larry: I got 99 problems and a bitch ain’t one
“It’s not working Larry”
“I said dail 8, 1, then the number”
“Still not working Larry”
“Did you dial the area code?”
“no”
“It’s working now…Hi I’d like to cancel my subscription to Playboy”
Looks like a bunch of French majors wearing clothes no gay man would be caught dead in. Isn’t there somewhere beyond the Gap to shop in the ‘hood there?
Larry awoke to the startling discovery that Treasury officials, concluding that his narcoleptic tendencies were a distraction at meetings, finally decided that a better use for him would be as a subject for the 5 pm Still Life drawing class.
“for the last time, there’s no nobel prize in pornagraphy”
Wonder who the guy in the New Balances (999′s maybe?) to the left of frame is…
77
Satan?
“typically we don’t let interns set economic policy, but oh what the hell, you only live once”
Shit, the caller ID says Harvard
Shit, the caller ID says Harvard
Too bad they didn’t capture the view from the other side of the room with the Homie in Chief chillin’ in some phat Fila sweats
The day “business casual” died.
the gent standing up is brian deese, recent grad of yale law school, running the auto show for obama
Rattner: I never would have thought Sheila would be into those kind of things…
Summers: Seriously guys, it was a one time role play thing, usually she wears the gag… I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHY I’M SHOWING YOU THESE!
-D-Rat
“Put them on speaker phone…I ordered a large meatlovers with extra cheese, four cups of ranch on the side for dipping and a two liter diet coke…what do you mean my aide doesn’t know how to phone in an order, he’s from Yale, for God’s sake…I’m gonna call the INS on you, little fuck…in fact, I AM the INS…”
Is it just me, or S-Rat looks like a Ruth Madoff twin here?
If apples were 10 cents each during the Great Depression how much should we tell folks to ask today, adjusted for inflation of course? Jesus Christ! Use a calculator if you can’t do the math in your head!!
@68 FTW!!
“Get someone on the phone and replace these goddamned apples with a roast beef platter immediately, c’mon folks we’ve talked about this!”
“Get someone on the phone and replace these goddamned apples with a roast beef platter immediately, c’mon folks we’ve talked about this!”
Bowl of Braeburn apples–$20
High-tech teleconferencing device–$500
Frederick Church landscape–$2,000,000
Opportunity to skewer four giant douchebags from D.C on Dealbreaker.com–Priceless
Goddamn do I miss W and his suits all the time rule. I’ve seen better dressed English profs at North-West Arkansas State.
Though I do like that they have a 39 yo Canadian who started his own boutique I bank at 30 as part of the new Chrysler board http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/gosbee-brings-fresh-approach-to-chrysler-board/article1208383/
The AP was able to secure the photo (above) showing Larry Summers moments before his legendary temper resulted in a quadruple homicide. Authorities speculate his baggy pants concealed a female-sized pistol.
87: Let’s quote MJ… “you are not alone…”
Yes, SR and RM would be a beautiful pairing.
93 I’ll take smart people dressed badly over dumb people in suits any day. The W White House was packed with yes men. No tolerance of any dissent. Hence the problems of today.
Meet Lonny, Jugdish, Clayton
DOnt be shy about helping yourself to punch & cookies
@93: as if these washed-up losers are not yes-men. give me a break. “hence the problems of tomorrow”.
68 is beautiful.
@96, that is.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I see what you did there, 100.
-L Summers
101 comments and 4 still wins.
4 was not that funny at all. 8 won this shit by a landslide.
A Mo-Jo, it’s a very high-tech machine that transmits voices to distant places.
What do you mean to say I’m not Fed Chairman yet?!?
96- Clothes make the man
Standing Guy 1: Look what he just did on the floor
Standing Guy 2: If you don’t rub his nose in it he won’t know that it was bad
Guy in Red Shirt: See that Larry? SEE THAT? NO, BAD!!!
I’d like to take shove a Braeburn apple up each of their asses….
Probably too late for the dork in the khakis.
4 wins, for sure.
