Living the Dream

I was scrolling through the comments section of this posting on Dealbreaker:

http://dealbreaker.com/2008/06/dating_ms_junk_bon…

when someone pointed out this event:

http://www.pocketchangenyc.com/fmf/who.php.

Though I missed the last one, I'm hoping to attend the next event. Though frankly, I just don't understand what the organizers have against Kelisha Stone (see RSVP list). Should have been accepted, for sure.

too funny to not share.... ok, so I liked one of the pictures(the lion banging the lioness) so I wanted to save it to my computer... when I go to save it, it turns out that the d-bag webmaster actually saves all the images with the submitter's e-mail address in the filename. So... being a prospective monkey like I am, I browse through all the emails seeing if theres anyone that may be of use in finding a job.... and what I notice is that probably like 1/3 of all the submitters have NYU email addresses. Then theres a bunch of BS submissions, probably by the event promoter since its all from the same email address... so apparently a Lehman trader, MS Financial Advisor, Citi analyst, Dolce Gabanna Designer, Juicy Couture marketer, Armani Model, Armani Merchandiser, Bloomy's buyer, World Bank Analyst(WTF?), DKNY designer all share the same email address.

It need not be mentioned that I have way too much time on my hands.

Also noteworthy was Chris Holdyk who lists himself as a Blackstone VP making $500k+/yr who's email address actually happens to be Christopher.Holdyk@GS.com..... Goldman shame? isn't that an oxymoron?

 

There are some other good pictures on there, though. I'm also a fan of Javier Taborga and Preston Lopez. I just know I've seen them somewhere.

"The delusional model-fuckers are even worse than the actual model-fuckers"

LOLOLOL. I cant stop laughing at that.

I have to agree that was pretty hilarious. But good gosh, don't people in fashion know of any other words to use than "fuck"?? Ahh, how badly profanity has taken over our generation.
