Casting Call: Oversights In Lehman Brothers Movie

By Bess Levin

Picture 23.pngOkay, people, we weren’t going to discuss the made for TV movie coming out on BBC this fall, since 1) it’s already been cast and 2) we had our hands full with more pressing issues but it’s been brought to our attention that there are at least three very important roles that need filling. First off, Erin Callan and David Einhorn. Who do you think could pull off the parts of the players that comprised 2008′s love that dare not speak its name? And much more importantly, that of our number one bitch?

    Callan = J.K. Rowling
    Einhorn = the kid who played Francis on Malcolm in the Middle (with his hair dyed, of course)

    Definitely a handbridger. But also a thighsqueezer. You know she’d wrap those gams around your head like a vise until you licked her park avenue box good and clean.

    @27 Would love to Dickie but they are kind of strict about curfew here on the wards at Bellevue. Plus hard to eat or drink when your arms are behind your back in a straightjacket

    @28/Erin
    I can think of plenty of activities (involving food and otherwise) you can do with your hands tied (behind your back or elsewhere).
    Call me!
    Oh, wait…

    @36 & 38
    Think for a minute, you retards. Knowing that each of you was building on @35′s comment, which addressed Bess having her hands full (get your dirty minds out of the gutter) addressing the AD funbags all day.
    So what each of you teenagers just said was that Greg’s cock is so big that AD would have to apply the handbridge.
    I thought we’d dispelled the myth that AD needed a handbridge at all.
    In fact, you just called Greg a big swinging dick. Well done.
    Wait, what? Yes boys, you just confirmed in your retarded way that Greg does have a gigantic cock. Like all type A’s, they don’t engage you, they fucking destroy you, your career, and your entire life.
    Well done boys, you get what you deserve in life. Practice this saying: “would you like to supersize that?”

    @18 for comment of the month. I laughed so hard I choked while using a HB to TF EC.

    @43 you god damn retard, we were saying that greg is the chick, and when you fuck her (greg), her breasts are so tiny the titty fucking requires an HB. kill yourself.

    What’s with the snipiness? Remember, all hate/snark should be directed towards Greg not at each other. Pull together, people.
