The legend returns... thanks for flagging this!
Good catch!
YESSSSS
NICE
omg.
.
I'm in heaven.
+1 for the share.
Timing couldn't be better.
I don't think I've been this excited since Gucci became a publicly traded company!
Absolutely amazing news to start the year with!!
holy shit.
YTM. Thanks for flagging.
"yield to maturity"
YTMND!
Awesome! Btw, is the identity of the writer out there or is he writing anonymously?

Haha thanks for the link, had a laugh! Even though the guy is ironic and all, I think he's a joke
While it is awesome to have him post again, I'm now confident a market meltdown is near.
Not surprised he made his return ahead of abysmal payrolls.
The Founder Hounder...epic post. This guy is literally my hero.
That was an interesting read. Biatches with pedigrees employing hard core tactics like that. These girls don't play the wallflower game. They're straight shooters.
What I would do, after dating Vivian or Claire or whatever for a while, is built a spreadsheet of how much I spent on her, then present her with a bill. See her face wither, and taking a pic of it.
Good god. The last line was a grand slam.
Why wasn't this front-paged!
Edit: Just read his post, and it's every bit as hilarious as before. A legend has returned to the living.
5 years?! Man, that makes me feel old.
Unreal! Thank you for the post!
I caught up with the author a few months ago. He told me he was going out to SF to consult for some early-stage startups. Didn't know he was going to start the blog again.
A good indicator the tech bubble doesn't have much time left.
Some of you guys seem to be crazy about LSO, so for those who haven't seen it yet, here's his newest piece:
"The Book of Graham": http://www.leveragedsellout.com/2014/02/the-book-of-graham/
Haha, nice!
That "hope" that "Graham is selling" is about following one's dreams. The post sounds a lot like a rant against those early stage accelerators.
I really really hate to say this, but that post was not funny, almost as if he wasn't even trying to be. It sounded like a long rant. Disappointed.
Yesshhhhh.
“Girls here wear North Face fleeces at dinner” - and the google geeks wear the corporate fleeces to dinner... its the new business card. So gross.
Loved that "most prestigious" accelerator bit
New post was cool but these things aren't selling any realistic hope....they're selling a get rich quick scheme.
And here I thought I would never get to witness this excellence in real time. This is great...hopefully this is a regular occurrence. Definitely going to read this right away.
Have to agree. He's perhaps rusty. I give this 'post' three stars out of five, hopefully he gets his groove back.
Read up boyz!

Leveraged Sell-Out - Less busy? (Originally Posted: 07/18/2006)
Found your site through them. Pretty good site, but maybe make it less busy? Also you should link to other related sites for flow back traffic like http://www.dealbreaker.com/ and also http://longorshortcapital.com/ or http://wallstfolly.typepad.com/wallstfolly/.
Cheers
