Tim Geithner is testifying before the the Congressional Oversight Panel this morning, and he’s doing so with a look that would be best described as Angelo Mozilo-lite. We need to know more. I leave it to you:

    Maybe he’s auditioning for a role on Jersey Shore….

    Remember in The Godfather, when seeing oranges meant someone was about to get fucked up? Maybe it’s like that.

    He’s trying to get the Washington Post to do a Walden-esque profile of him. So he’s been making a beach shack with his bare hands.

    It’s part of Ping Jiang’s “Intensive Training Program”. Didn’t you know he’s been moonlighting at Treasury?

    Face tan but not the hands points towards a cold weather environment. Combined with two weeks before Christmas, I’d say he’s putting in OT up at the North Pole.

    I don’t wanna sound like a queer or nothin’, but I think TG looks like he can suck a mean dick.

    Haven’t you heard? Merely being in the radiant presence of Obama will do that to you. You have no idea how much SPF 75 Larry Sumemrs goes through

    he’s just trying to fit in with the rest of congress.

    The Situation’s brother and law works at Goldman…He must be identify himself.

    @14 – this is why writers shouldn’t go on tv and bad writers, as a general rule, shouldn’t write. and wtf is up with that rat tail on his lip?

    Maybe the orange whiteboard marker was rendered unsanitary following a Ping-type moment, and he decided to use up all the remaining ink.
    Timmy looks to save pennies wherever he can, including on his income taxes.

    Ken here. I voted “Other”.
    I have material non-public information related to Tim’s skin color. It isn’t the result of tanning. He is merely experiencing a persistent hot flash.
    I told him that I was writing a $45bn check (plus interest) and he started to breathe heavily.
    I told him that I’d still appreciate government guarantees on my $185bn 2007 vintage mortgage backed security exposure and his blood pressure elevated.
    Shortly thereafter Count Vicula called and asked if he could have the share of the TARP funds that I had just returned.
    Then Sheila Bair walked into the room and kicked him in the berries.
    I need a drink.

    I’m so inspired by The Situation I’ve started referring to my beer gut as The Crisis.

    Sithcracker tried to use force lightning on Darth Parsons and Parsons bounced it right back at him, turning his skin orange.

    I’m so inspired by The Crisis that I’ve started referring to my peen as The Panic Stick.

    @12/NS that doesn’t make you sound like a queer at all, not that there’s anything wrong with that.
