You guys, this is Greenwich Plaza, home of, among others, AQR. We don’t want to jump to any conclusions about what happened, and fingers crossed this is just a drill, but please, someone, if this is serious, make sure our boy gets out okay.

Fucking A.
@1 yes?
While Greenwich Fire Dept. isn’t all that busy normally, no way do they send that kind of manpower just for a fire drill.
Man, I wonder whether someone tried to burn down the lawyers office next door to AQR again. I also don’t miss the regular anthrax scares at RBS in #1
It is almost 2pm on Friday, August 28th in Greenwich, Connecticut… that building must be 80% empty. No way is CA in the office.
Beth Levin you vicious animal liar, you you know god damn well the source of the scare was the fire in my loins!!!
theres some shitty cars in that parking lot…
@5 say that to my face you motherfucking cock sucking piece of shit scum sucking whore!!!!
Maybe there is a kitten trapped on an upper branch of that tree?
Drury: “Nixt up — Firemeen troying tew save a kit in a tree or is a hidge fund in tribble? Stye tewned…..”
@7 always
this is called karma, cliff.
So Funny Bess. What would we do without you making us laugh every day. It’s Tontine’s Jeff Gendell in that building also. Maybe his investors started it to smoke him out and get him to admit he quit his fund becuase he didn’t have to balls to make his highwater mark back.
Hey team who wants to join me for drinks tonight at Dorrians? If there isnt enough hot banking meat there how about Martignellis?
Toodles!
@12 shut up you piece of shit we’re talking about me and the fact that my body is about to be entirely covered in scar tissue!!!
Biff occasionally sits to the right of the main door smoking a cigar while whispering sweet nothings into Liew’s ear. Maybe the cigar lit last years leaves or, as @6 put it, the fire in his loins for Bess set the place on fire.
Then again it’s probably yet another toaster fire.
@14 fuckin’ A, i am so turned on right now.

“hot banking meat”…..uh-huh…..yep…sure…
@13 are you suggesting they staged a fire to get out of happy hour with you? I would have thought that hanging out with you would have been right up Biff’s alley.
Nothing to see, guys. A trader placed popcorn in the microwave, thus creating a fire and setting off the alarm. We put it out with our watermark.
-Cliff
@19 burn!
as implied in the video, there’s nothing to see here– Biff will be fine, considering he’d knock everyone over to get out of the place first, like the sucker of cock he is.
There are a few different offices in there, not just AQR. Silver Point has offices there. Also, that parking lot faces the Greenwich train station. So it could be for any one of those things. And besides, it’s September, CA is probably in the Hamptons.

Let me just slip outta these shirt sleeves and I’ll fight those flames.

Fucking microwave popcorn. Every company that provides microwave popcorn for traders has had financial trouble or gone out of business.
Tell you what, you can offer me that big fat fucking salary and bonus that I demand but if I see any fucking microwave popcorn in the vending machines or elswhere on your trade floor I’m walking, pal.
I’m going to Dorsia
@22/23, yeah that’s why the post says “among others.” cliff’s just the most important.
It’s never okay to joke about a fire, or potential fire, until you know everyone’s safe. This is just sick.
It is probably just their investors’ cash that is going up in smoke. They should send the cop cars next.
Looks like CA is trying to pull a Marcus Schrenker. Only one problem; Greenwich’s finest showed up too early.
“What goes up, must come down, shitty performance, round and round…”
@28 is correct.
~Fire Marshall Bill
I am a CFA – ha -
@28
how do you know it’s a fire? maybe someone killed themselves…jeez lighten up
@28 what’s sick is that you would automatically assume I was joking. This post was completely sincere. Stop projecting your shit on me.
Whats better – CFA or MBA?
@28 burn
@26 I had a reservation there but had to cancel as I’m going to see the acclaimed musical Oh Africa, Brave Africa … I’ve heard it’s a laugh riot.
How’s this @28:
A fireman and a hedge fund trader died and both went to heaven where they were issued their wings with the warning that if they had even have one bad thought their wings would fall off.
Well, everything went well for some time then one day they passed a very attractive and well put together young lady who reportedly had been laid off from a bank in New York City.
As the fireman turned to watch her pass his wings fell off.
When he bent over to pick them up the hedge fund trader’s wings fell off.
What’s with the sea urchin ceviche?
@22 Its september? Where?
Ah, Shit, I just agreed with SBII. I need to self immolate.
It’s been great ….
@35: PhD
Jesus Christ, I was just fucking with you people. I don’t give a shit if they all burn to death.

Beth Levin has mistaken me for this dickhead Biff Blasness. It seems logical because Biff also works at AQR and in fact does the same exact thing I do and he also has a penchant for Valentino suits and Oliver Peoples glasses and sucking fat rhinoceros cock. Biff and I even go to the same barber, although I have a slightly better haircut.
Sorry guys,
I just wrote an investor letter that was so scintillating, that I closed with ‘burn after reading’. Get this, one of my employees that was proofreading it took it a bit too literally. This is not a PR stunt at all, but the real deal. I’m going for shock and awe. I know you guys can’t wait.

And I said, I don’t care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I’m, I’m quitting, I’m going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they’ve moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn’t bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it’s not okay because if they take my stapler then I’ll set the building on fire…

Anybody got numbers for GFD first-years?
Pretty sure that burning was his ass accompanied by some bleeding from the rectum. Pretty sure.
I’ve been away… who is Mark Klein MD?
Bernie and I just become intimate. He liked “role playing and was a big fan of the NYFD. He said that we would have sex on “the bell system.”
He went on to say that one bell meant take your clothes off…two bells meant get into bed…and three bells meant start fooling around.
Bernie and I met at the Willard one day and we decided to try out his system…. he hollered “One Bell” and I seductively took off my clothes. I was moist with excitement!
Bernie hollered “Two Bells” and I got into bed.
He hollered “Three Bells” and we started fooling around like crazy. Oh God my heart was beating so fast!!!
A few minutes later, I surprised Bernie by yelling, “Four Bells.”
“Four Bells?” Bernie asked, “What is ‘four bells’ signal?”
“Let out more hose!” I yelled. “You’re nowhere near the fire!”
@49
he tapes 20 minute workout and plays it back in 10 minutes…great workout
@46 FTW!
@50 well played!
Biff’s death ruled a homicide. The question is who did it? Go GFD!

“You’re livin in the past, man!”
@50 I really wanted to laugh, but i was serious. I’m lost in translation… I assume he has nothing to do with CG or HCP?

@54……Quick!! Has Lindbergh made it to Paris yet???
Fire. Fire, fire. Heh, fire. Right. Investors, good. Investment professionals, bad. Fire fire. Fire Island. Fantasy Island. Ricardo Montablan. Fine Corinthian Leather. Tattoo. I like short guys.
Tattoo is hot. Fire is hot. I wonder if Tattoo got burned. I know first aid and can help burns. Investors get burned too . . . so they should send the cops to arrest Tattoo.
He . . . heh . . . Fire.

Pretty much sums it up.
I’m getting worried. I don’t think Biff is such an ass that, knowing that DB is sincerely worried about him, it’s been well over an hour and he hasn’t checked in to say he’s OK. I just have a bad feeling about this.
I love molesting Collies with Dennis Kneale. It’s like getting back at the man (Jews, Bankers, Blacks) each thrust at a time.

Did you know that Ted Bundy’s first dog, a collie, was named Lassie? Had you heard this?
Here you go boys:
http://drmarkklein.blogspot.com/
Dennis Come Home (1943) not so much a great movie but an endictment of American excesses of the 40′s
Starring Dennis Kneale as the eponymous evil prison guard and Lassie, a collie, as his downtrodden victim.
Rated (R) for full frontal nudity, strong sexual content and canine language.
Not to be confused with the movie “Lasie Come Home(1943)” of the same era.

@63 So what happened to him and why is some douchebag resurrecting him on DB (unfunnily, I might add)
Mr. President, unfortunately the people who own those cars cannot afford new car payments.
@70 I see what you did there. Hilarious.
Who is CA?
Who is Biff?
Who is DB?
POTUS: Lar, why didn’t the people that work in that building take advantage of Cash fo Clunkers?
SUMMERS: Mr. President, unfortunately the people who own those cars cannot afford new car payments.
POTUS: Seriously? What do they do?
SUMMERS: Work for hedge funds. Traders mostly, but some principals too.
POTUS: You shittin’ me?
SUMMERS: No sir.
POTUS: God damn!
@73 – Epic Fail
Does anyone know where I can find high quality Japanese rape porn?
@75 anime? or the real deal?
I had a dream last night in which AD was lactating peppermint flavored milk into a hollowed out bust of Winston Churchill. What does this mean?
@74 how’s the car running?
@76 – anime is for pussies. I want the real deal.
@ 75 – You are not Japanese! You are not a Tanaka!
@75
You call me on private phone, I tell you.

@77 I had a dream of her giving me an uncomfortably dry HJ while we watched aboriginal hardcore porn. Men at Work was also playing a live gig but the only song they would play is “Who Can It Be Now?”
@78…What car?…Not 74
@77
You’re pretty sick, Chubbs
@77 – are you sure it wasn’t Phil Mickelson’s bust? I’d think you would get more milk that way.
@naked
“I come from a land down under”
That’s the only song that counts on so many levels. Your dream was busted.

@86 thats a valid point. I think the hardest I have ever laughed was when they closed the 2000 Sydney Olympics with that song.
@32
You are a CFA charterholder. I will report you for failing to abide by the standards rule #7B.
