People on this board are pathetic

you're the most pathetic of them all.

Why is that? Because I don't keep repeating the same subjects over and over again??? Let's talk about something new not the same old over and over and over again.

So go ahead. Talk about something new.

I like pie.

well considering this is a real estate board you should expect most of the thread to be about real estate related items such as real estate prices. but you know what, why dont you start a new thread about something and see what happens, its worth a shot.

Yes, anyone who posts on a Saturday night is particularly pathetic ;)

nycjunior1...very funny!

"Clearly not bankers with all the 'schadenfreude' they have. Are there any subjects besides falling bonuses/real estate prices that you find worth to discuss?"

Sounds like a banker that is watching the value of his/her purchase decline drastically. :-/

The challenge has been posted. You're obviously hanging around here, quite a bit, if you're able to deem our discussions unworthy.

So, why don't you add to the mix instead of just bashing what's being discussed by others?

uppereast.. .top or bottom ?

I was trying to find a nice spot to visit in Tulum last night, but I didn't think this was the place to ask.

I got food poisoning.

I know two other people who got food poisoning in the past 4 days.

My theory: It's Restaurant Week. Half the meals being served have been fished out of the garbage.

That must be it. Times are tough.

stevej - perhaps the stomach bug that's circulating

uwsmom, I'm thinking that b/c pasta salad and saltines really shouldn't make you sick.

I love saltines.

sup

>>I love saltines.<<

Zweibacks're better but they don't seem to make 'em anymore...

They don't make Zweibacks?

What's a teething child to do?

That said, I also love graham crackers. I used to eat them instead of giving them to animals at the Catskill Game Farm. Portended a niggardly future, I suppose.

>>I also love graham crackers. I used to eat them instead of giving them to animals at the Catskill Game Farm.<<

Oh yeah? I'll see your graham cracker and raise you a dog biscuit, which I used to sometimes sneak instead of giving it to Fido (those big yummy toasted ones - just couldn't resist :P)

Once I tasted cat food - it tastes like liver.

Yuck.

How surprising, another racist comment from stevejhx

Racist? Someone needs to check their dictionary.

catskill game farm was truly a hell hole, thank God they shut it down

Wall Street bonuses were the biggest factor in Manhattan RE on the way up... suddenly we're in a crash and they're irrelevant?

>>Once I tasted cat food - it tastes like liver.<<

Ah, yes, liver. For the discerning feline. Chicken is just so plebian.

Wall Street bonuses were just one component of Manhattan real estate on the way up. There was also the flight to real estate vs. tech after the tech crash, there was also the gold rush by foreigners, and there was also Wall Street markets -not bonuses but rather financial products and ease of lending and securitization. Wall Street bonuses themselves didn't creat this.

Ittakesonetoknowone, do you think Steve ate kibbles, or bits?

It was Fancy Feast.

Only the finest.

I knew it, steve had fallen and couldn't get up :)

Wall Street was DIRECTLY 30% of NYC income (city stat) and 1/3 of apartment buyers (REBNY stat). And lawyers and all the other spots COMPLETELY dependent on Wall Street probably moved that closer to 50%.

Underplaying their importance here is illogical.

I directed my question to Ittakesonetoknowone. Kibbles vs. bits is a subject besides falling bonuses/real estate prices that I find worth to discuss.

dog food is meatier

uppereast, perhaps you are having an issue with being so negative all of the time given market conditions. It is hard to take yourself out when you are clearly in it - otherwise you wouldn't be able to comment it. Nothing is objective, ummm we are all part of the whole blah blah. Anyway, if you do not like the threads, or the commentary, dare to be "different" post something cheery and delightful that we can all have a wonderful time discussing :)

uppereast - if it makes you feel any better, I'll buy your apartment for 60% of your purchase price

"My theory: It's Restaurant Week. Half the meals being served have been fished out of the garbage."

Ya, that's why I avoid rest wk. Eating dog food, cat food & out of the garbage: sounds like we're preparing our palate for depression dining. I'll reserve fancy feast for special occasions & holidays.

Fancy Feast is better than dog food.

Did you know that dog spelled backwards is god, and cat spelled backwards is tac?

Where did you guys get all that money to buy dogfood and catfood to eat? I'm hungry.

How's yr tum today, Steve? Stick to the fancy feast till yr better.

No, never realized that thing bout dogs and taks.

No, lowery, we're eatin outta the garbage. Dog/kat food for special occasions. C'mon, get witda program.

Tum's better, thanks. Just had a chicken salad sandwich for lunch. Right out of the dumpster. Delish.

mmmm... dumpster breath...

I need some peen.

loilololol

"No, lowery, we're eatin outta the garbage. Dog/kat food for special occasions. C'mon, get witda program"

WHERE???? I was knocking on restaurants' back doors and taking their leftovers, but since the New Year they've been telling me they can't afford to throw anything out; they serve it next day to paying customers.

oh, stevejhx, try prilosec -- it lasts much longer than tums...

And I can't hunt the neighbors' cats anymore, because they're getting suspicious.

nuggit

squirrels are good eats... likz to eat them whole... with a side of nutz... it brings out the nutty flavor in those little critters... :)

Pathetic........me?
All I had to do was log on?

That was easy.
Hooray!!!!!!!!
I'm in the club!

no squirrels in my neighborhood - I've been hungry a LONG time........

ITS funny that I thought this was a section to discuss BOARDS... of buildings, only thanks to uppereast i now understand that board refers to an internet forum..

Wikipedia random article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

Talk amongst yourselves.

Well, one only needs to look at this discussion and each and every person who posted on it to know that ... people here are pathetic. Each and every person who thought rufus was significant enough to post on that discussion.
