Had to mansplain to some broad last night on a date what a corporate raider does

I can't believe so many gold diggers know about GS/MS/JPM, and even the lesser known boutiques like Moelis, Qatalyst and Nomura, but doesn't know what Gordon Gekko does. I was on a date with this mutt broad I met on Hinge at Nobu and I mentioned how it was my childhood dream to become a corporate raider, and I got the blankest stare like she was some immigrant who went to MIT or Stanford and has zero social skills. 
 

Fuck this, I should start filtering dates based on if they went to a target school or not.

Aren’t you the guy still in high school?

 

Again I assumed the poster and assumed correctly.
