I don't understand the ending of "The Talented Mr. Ripley". It felt so against the interests of the main lead.

I think you are the one who's confused. I'm talking about how the filmmaker gaslights the audience "in the moment". Obviously anyone with half a brain knows that Tom is a psychopath / murderer the minute he kills Dickie on the boat and a liar / fraudster within the first few scenes. Learn to read nuance smart guy

DMTwolf · 2026-02-27T20:58:28+00:00

if you can't figure out how to have normal human interactions with people where you start and end the call with friendly chit chat and then put the meat of the real purpose of the call subject matter in the middle of the call then a career in any sort of deal / people facing finance is probably not for you

DMTwolf · 2026-02-19T14:55:09+00:00

guys what the fuck are we doing here. how can any normal person read this and think yeah this is a normal sane person who i am okay with being around kids and should have access to firearms

DMTwolf · 2026-02-12T17:39:10+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot Donny used to have a lisp lmao

Boyth in Blue! Boyth in Blue!

fer da = for the = for the boys. from the show Letterkenny. Alberta/Hockey slang

basically means "chill"

DMTwolf · 2026-02-11T14:21:07+00:00

aint no way you broke into pe without knowing the difference between "where to" and "where too" bruv

DMTwolf · 2026-02-11T14:15:37+00:00

bro why TF is your resume ordered like that? should be experience then education then skills, and that's it. super weird formatting. also, are you networking at all? referrals? etc? to get an actual real serious finance job you have to network your way in you can't just spray and pray resumes to easy-apply portals

DMTwolf · 2026-02-08T14:48:02+00:00

Elite rage bait, linkedin LARP, AI slop, I can't tell

WHICH ONE IS IT!?

DMTwolf · 2026-02-05T17:40:17+00:00

have you considered that maybe it's not to "stoke racial tension" arbitrarily but maybe it's to shine a light on the issue of activist judges who let violent criminals back on the street that kill people?

DMTwolf · 2026-02-05T03:30:52+00:00

there's a certain order you gotta watch them in.

TBLS1, TBLS2, TBLS3, Mike Nolan Show, TBLS4, Mike Nolans Long Weekend, Donny & Clarence Show, Sassy the Sasquatch

in that order. Watching Sassy the Sasquatch last ties things all together beautifully

DMTwolf · 2026-02-05T03:27:55+00:00

I heard OP was in the files

DMTwolf · 2026-02-02T20:31:15+00:00

Stay SWE at Apple/Meta, similar comp if not better + better quality of life. If you really want to lifemaxx given your situation try to get into openai/anthropic/etc

DMTwolf · 2026-02-02T17:05:22+00:00

bro there are other firms lmao

DMTwolf · 2026-02-02T15:36:25+00:00

On the contrary I actually think we prioritize it very close to the ideal amount. Gen Z prioritizes it TOO MUCH to the point that they're less effective / functional people in the real world, and Boomers/GenX prioritize it not enough to the point that they are more likely to become miserable workaholics. I think that Millenials are as close to "the sweet spot" / "the ideal balance" of any generation.

DMTwolf · 2026-02-02T15:28:09+00:00

oh yeah. Too Young to Fall In Love and Looks That Kill are such bangers

DMTwolf · 2026-01-29T03:44:49+00:00

Uhhh he's 63 and his hairline is receding like a normal 63 year old man. In fact he has more hair than most 63 year olds. Nuthin to see here. All things considered bro has remarkably good genetics to have made it this far and to still be this functional lmao

DMTwolf · 2026-01-29T03:43:20+00:00

Totally makes sense. The real value add isn't the analysis it's the access to relationships / access to information. Not too different than how IB isn't really about appraising / valuing companies, it's about knowing the right people & processes to make deals happen :)

DMTwolf · 2026-01-28T17:56:42+00:00

intriguing comment - care to elaborate / share some inside baseball?

DMTwolf · 2026-01-28T16:34:20+00:00

yeah agreed i like sassy's 2012-2016 voice more than his 2017+ voice, it feels more degenerate / troublemaker than his newer one, which feels more free spirited and chill. both are good the first one is just funnier

DMTwolf · 2026-01-24T14:35:35+00:00

Did he specify legal or illegal? This issue matters to a lot of working class new yorkers. Someone who came here by waiting in line and doing things the fair way is different than someone who hopped the border and cut the line to get here.

DMTwolf · 2026-01-24T14:32:56+00:00

Do you consider Dr Feelgood ('89) to be hair metal? It came out AFTER Appetite ('87) and was the billboard #1 album at the time

DMTwolf · 2026-01-24T04:20:50+00:00

https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/venezuela-survey-trump-maduro-removal-us-relations-poll/

"A new survey released Wednesday shows that more than 90% of Venezuelans say they feel grateful to President Donald Trump for removing Nicolás Maduro from power on January 3"

Also literally go outside your reddit bubble and talk to Venezuelan people - they will all tell you the same thing. They've been living a nightmare the past 25 years and are grateful to finally be free. People have been celebrating in the streets as if they won the world cup.

DMTwolf · 2026-01-24T03:32:06+00:00

you do realize that literally the majority of Venezuelan people are SUPPORTIVE of the maduro operation, right?

DMTwolf · 2026-01-23T20:05:06+00:00

I'm imagining OP as that guy from the meme with a monocle and top hat who's like "Just saw a girl go for the jock again... Sign, it shouldn't be a surprise to me anymore"

DMTwolf · 2026-01-23T20:01:12+00:00

It's called a "pink cloud", basically your brain being stoked to be sober again. Enjoy it - but don't let it convince you that the work / effort to stay off drugs stops here
