My only problem with that article . . . it's full of incredibly obtuse writing and grandiose yet unsubstantiated claims, just to impress the reader and mask the lack of substance to support it.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.

ratinamaze go find another fucking girlfriend to qq about

Dude shut the fuck up. Seriously, for the love of god. Are you telling me, you havent had women problems? I made the mistake of posting here because people helped me with other aspects and everyone seemed like a reasonable bunch. My mistake, I got over it.

Now fuck off. I look forward to the monkey shit this post is going to get.

-1 for that.

The dude has no shortage of women up on him, that's his only problem. Here's my latest work of art. I call it "a day in the life of shorttheworld": http://www.feministe.us/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/funny-pictures-…

Unnecessary.

I agree with 5-10% of what ANT says about politics and whatnot but you have no credibility to be going after one of the site's top posters who's helped alot of us immensely between his MSF site/advice and other constructive contributions. You need to chill the fuck out and earn the right to be so aggressive.

Not a very well written article by the way; confusing and inconclusive.

‎"Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction. When money ceases to become the means by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of other men. Blood, whips and guns or dollars."
 

I threw shit at you because you're specifically going after ANT. If nothing else, if you agree with him on absolutely nothing, at least he doesn't specifically go after another person with a post.

And I don't agree with everything he says, probably more like 60%, which is more than I can say for most people. How about instead of focusing on the person behind the argument, you focus on the argument.

ANT is one of the biggest contributors and helpers on this website including to people like you in MSF programs and im sure you got some help from his posts so seriously fall the fuck back on taunting him. yes we all have girl problems but generally i dont have TOO many. people can attest to this. come to a happy hour sometime and let me enlighten you

 

I am a moron huh. You rarely post anything of content and you critique my posts? Get real.

What I find so funny is you started all this. I didn't even comment on your little girl issues post. Then you come out of the blue and make insulting and attacking comments on a topic you were not even contributing in. Now you are acting out like a child, making posts directly at me. Grow up.

Maybe its just me but it seems there are alot more spoiled immature kids here then there was before, like a few months ago. I get busy for a few months and I come back to one of my favorite websites and its riddled with self centered douches. Its sad really because it has driven many of the best members away.

Ahhh, I don't know. The site ebbs and flows with admission cycles and stuff like that. There will always be some people who come here and screw around and others who see this as a way to make contacts in industry and learn a lot.

 

You get a lot more fresh/soph on this site that know nothing about banking (or social interaction, for that matter) in the fall, looking for info. Nothing against them, they keep the site going, but it would be nice if they did some research on this site.

And, of course, there will always be resident douches, trolls, idiots, etc

I dont know why we continually feed this troll. First, I thought he was real, but just with women problems so I posted quite a bit in his first thread, helping the poor guy out. But now, he just goes around picking fights. Rat, you havent contributed an iota to the relevant and most popular discussions on this forum and instead you're launching personal attacks. Granted I dont agree with Ant's politics, but he's not afraid to speak his mind and he actually helped me quite a bit when I was considering an MSF so I dont know why the out of the blue posts.

Guy, find a hobby.

Shut the fuck up; At least I'm not some prestige whore. We get it you went to Oxford..you dont need to mention it all the fucking time. Ant's a fucking moron and so are you.

An iota? I hope this is relevant to explaining what a pretentious fuck you are.

 

Back to the actual article, I only gave it a quick glance but he makes some valid points. However, I'm not sure of the whole premise of it. The way I see it, the roll of the dice and the "ruthless exploitation" of someone is a skill that the majority of people just do not possess. I dont think its completely left to chance. Those 1% have that skill. And they use it. I'm all for the protests and agree changes ought to be made but I am not going to select skills that are branded trivial and inconsequential to the success of someone.

 

I do find it interesting because I read an article a while back that said something like 1% of the population falls under the "psychopath" category,

It seems odd that I have contributed more to this fourm in the last 3 months then Rat has since he joined, and until yesterday I havent been able to visit since the early summer.

Strange huh?

Not really. I constantly visit this forum but some of the people on these threads like Ant, Midas, UFOInsider, Shortheworld, financialnovice, intheflesh, flake are such idiots it just turns me off and I get angry for coming onto this forum in the first place. I really enjoyed reading people's posts on here and I attempted to contribute and diversify with varying topics but was shit on constantly. And now, anytime I do contribute I get more shit and hundreds of idiots sucking Ant's dick when I was merely pointing out that some of his opinions are completely wrong and I disagree. I put it mildly and I get tons of heat and shit so I thought why not make it a spectacle?

Best part is "he hasn't contributed except for msf" aren't you in msf

Y u mad bro

Stop giving away my secrets.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
 

He's entitled to do (almost) whatever the fuck he wants on this site, that's part of what makes WSO great. The problem is he's attacking a bunch of the top WSO users, which leads me to believe he's trolling. That and his 6 : 236 SB to MS ratio

Perhaps I was a little harsh. But the point was everyone is always attacking me too so I launched a pre-emptive. Plus actually, one of the political threads, I dared disagreeing with Ant on some point and he immediately launched into some bullshit about me having girl problems. He couldnt debate me so took an easy way out.

Anyway, like I said I was a bit harsh, and ANT I apologise.

And that 6-236 ratio is complete crap. I got hit with so much shit in one thread (the paki v indian women comparison). Bunch of hypocrites, I was posting the same stuff everyone else was and I get hit with crap.

Plus I completely agree with Jerome about the mods. I got friendly warnings about my posts. But the religious libery posts and other racist/sexist posts got nothing.

 

Rat, you continue to do nothing but prove everyone right when you respond the way that you do.

PS I hope you got over that Paki you were so hard up for.

Yeah, I suppose but some of these people are hypocritical. I get hit with shit for no reason so I thought why not give them a bunch of crap for doing so? Some of these top WSO users are so fucking immature it's astounding.

Yeah, way over that girl, thanks. HAve a steady girl now, another Paki but mixed race.

 

Ant views are not wrong, nor are yours. They are your views and therefore are correct for you. To come out and say that he is wrong is a weak attack and then to use sources that have no ballance and creditability just furthers your cause for monkey shit.
