I'm here to stay.

I own this fucking forum. I've posted more shit, and contributed more than anybody else. King Kong aint got shit on me. Everyday you wake up eager to see what I post. Admit it, you want me here. You want me on this forum. You need me on this forum.

If Bill Clinton can survive, Dan Bush can survive.

I shall return. You will curse me in public. You will mock me in public. You will loathe me in public. But you will love it. In your minds you will think about me. You will think about this forum in my absence and you will be comforted to know i'm here. You will sleep at night knowing Dan Bush will be posting. I do what others cant and wont. I do do it not for the love. I do do it not for the money. I do it for you. For you and only you. I do it for your sake.

You know this forum was interesting to me before, but now it just caught on fire. Wow, it's interesting to see so many people glad to see another person leave an internet forum, while that person is obviously loosing it from the prospect of being "kicked out" from a virtual forum. This is quite interesting playing out...

 

'i wonder what this fool looks like anyways?'

At some point, he contrasted himself with a 6 foot, 100 lb college nerd who sits in front of banking forums all day. He said in college, he was always out and never stressed about getting a banking job.

Now we find out he's still in school. I think I can imagine what he looks like.

 

Wait, wait... if I'm waiting for a turn from an associate at midnight on a Saturday, I might post as well. It's not like I get to go out and party on most Saturdays, guys. I mean, I wouldn't be burning up the forums like Dan Bush did, but I might post something brief if I had a spare couple of minutes.
