    I seriously considered starting a pool on which obnoxious attention whore commenter would be the first to make a Helicopter Ben joke, and was going to take either Roubs or Taleb

    CommenTATOR. Commenters = people who comment on DB and would never be as offensive.

    Nouriel,
    Couldn't think of any good Holocaust jokes? There are tons
    Or are those not funny to you?

    Nouriel Roubini should stick to stocking his parties with subprime, non-performing, junk, and otherwise unrated chicks.

    Maybe his English sucks something big and cylindrical, but there is nothing funny about a helicopter that was shot down and a bunch of SEALs and others killed.

    Fucking TOOL.

    Perhaps the Navy SEALs will pay him a visit like they did UBL. A 5.56mm round traveling 3,000 feet per second from a silenced M4 will destroy the brain of any economist no matter how funny or smart they think they are.

    I am surprised he had the time to write this between his pool parties and sleeping with the freshman NYU girls
