Oh god are u an ERISA atty? figures.

Ewwww. The only thing worse would be a HIPAA attorney.

The good thing about my job as an ERISA investment attorney is that I get to hang with bankers all the time. All. the. time. In fact, earlier this summer I went to dinner and I was the only girl at a big table full of BANKERS!

One of my sparring partners is also a banker. He's married though. Damn.

Pussy.

So, in effect, sts, I. WON. THE. VERY. LAST. UNFETTERED. UNRESTRICTED. K RACE!!!!!!

WOO HOO~~!

GO PENSKE, GO!

Well played, playah,

Your word is bond indeed. Bully for you. Honour is a concept lost on most these days.

Go RT, go!

Vagina.

What happens when the admins disagree? Is there an appeals process? A final arbiter?

Inane pet question
 

Yeah; it's called a bathroom sink.

My idiot cat refuses to drink still water (at least when I'm around) so I have to turn the faucet to a slow drip on demand**. Then the other cat decided she had to drink from the faucet too.

I've considered getting one of the fountains. If you get one, let me know how your pets like it.

**Those of you who are owned by a cat understand this.

An excellent suggestion to replace the current thread title. At the Admin's discretion, of course.

Inane pet question
 

I got one for free from a friend, and my cats don't seem to prefer it to still water. But if your cat insists on drinking from e.g. a dripping tap, then it's probably worth it.

I'm not a lawyer anymore. Bwahahahahahahaha.

Now this is some major shit stirring. I would have thought that you, like me, would have learned your lesson after the last antic-debacle...

I did. See how I'm sucking up to the Admin's? Except for the pussy thing, but she knows I'm kidding, I think.

Punctuation flaunter
 

And apparently an. Un. Believable. Hypocrite. Or rule-breaker. Or both.

Yes, but the last time we thought someone knew we were kidding, the Wiz of Waz and the Bonz saw one of their closest pals get offed. RIP. [sniff]

eta: It's all in good fun, until the shit flows over the bowl and onto your John Lobbs. Then it ain't so funny.

Hey
 

Denise Richards. Heidi Fleiss girl or not? Or did you just pull that one out of your ass like all the rest?

I think it was the "number 9 with a bullet" comment.

Don't hate the playa, hate the game.

If you hate the game, can't you hate the playahs who play it?

No. they are just doing a job. Cogs in a machine, sts. It's like Ty taking his faux-elitist-intellectualised snobberyish hatred of wine in a box out on the poor migrant farm workers who pick the grapes. Those dudes are just trying to survive in the rough and tumble whirlwind of the California boxed wine industry. Trying to make a dolla outta fifteen cents. iyw.

Love the playas DTB, they are the only ones coming straight up. Word is bond.

Inane pet question
 

Pet rocks were bad enough. Though I suppose a water fountain could at least show some affection. Sort of.

Some of the newer more upscaley wines-in-boxes are pretty drinkable, you know.

Honey, you are a rider producer. Like, Ms. X is gonna email you ERISA comments please drop in rider 27X.

I work with deal attys who work with bankers....I'm freakin' staff and they hang with me. They hang with you because it is their job.


And the boxing thing is old.

I agree, but those are probably the ones from the PacNW. the CA stuff is third tier.

Suck on that
 

Sorry to burst your bubble, but just like being an alcoholic, you'll always be a lawyer. Just not practicing. Unless you miss a dues payment. Then it's not so much like being an alcoholic.

Suck on that
 

Um, I don't have to worry so much about major ERISA changes with any immediacy anymore. Bwahahahahahahaha.

It doesn't have the same ring.

Suck on that
 

Sure it does, fringey BONUS TIME

Or because she's smokin' hot.

Dude is there really such a thing?
I thought Ty was just playin'.

More relevant if used in my context. Why would they want to hang with staff.

Fugee, Fugee, Fugee, have you learned nothing in the last couple of weeks? The only credible claims about a woman's hotness are those made by the woman herself. Those claims are all the more reliable if the woman provides concrete examples of the male behavior that she observed and that could only be interpreted to mean that the woman is hot. These reports of gwinky's hotness by other parties, both male and female, simply can't stand up to serious scrutiny now that the evidentiary standards have been so elevated.

The bar is set low for female attorneys my dear...."hot" in that context doesn't take much.

Why just female attorneys? Where, exactly, do you work? The male attorneys where I worked were not (as a rule) exactly anyone would confuse with prime specimens.

So now the game is win the K and promise to bitch? Sweet.

FD: Part of the reason I have pursued an email/IM/one booty call relationship with ppnyc all these years is the visceral sense of hotness from the correspondence, albeit, in its strictly platonic nature.

OTOH, I dined with Gwinky, and we were al fresco prior to and after dining.

At this point it is an apples and oranges comparison, which seems not so relevant to the current convo, but I tried (and I didn't invoke either slave nor paigow[sniff]), and its the thought that counts...

:flag:

Did they have French cuffs?

fair enough.

Piss is pretty drinkable, if you're stuck on a life raft for a couple of weeks.

Unlike you, GWNC has put her money where her mouth is. Or something. Visual. evidence.
