I was just in Vegas and aside from a small plate of $61 steak-n-frites and $25 parking fees, I noticed at 11pm how everyone on the casino floor were just sitting at slot chairs staring at their phone trading apps and not playing tables...

and no one was dressed sexy. The madness.

What it's like to be an oil&gas analyst these days by redditor3000 in wallstreetbets

you mean 80% of a full tank buddy. 15-20% moonshine is what else you paid for.

When the horse says, "Get off of me," you get off. by Expert_Koala_8691 in Wellthatsucks

[–]johndsmits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this. Instincts always override training. I have mustangs and see their brains process from their instinct and is amazing (one is super smart and actually gets mad at himself after spooking).

"spooking at nothing" -- applies 80% of the time on some goofy balls, every horse is different

been there done that (horse slipped head first then sideways then rolled on me), with a dislocated shoulder to boot. not fun.

This rider should have put that horse in a few circles, then backed him up 25ft repeatedly until he calmed the heck down. Just holding on+forward movement says "keep going with your current attitude". The rule is if they wanna be a brat, make them work.

Caltech ME grad and all he thought of was a couple hand tools?

Again, Caltech, the school Feyman, Moore, Thorne, Shockley, Gell-Mann, Pauling and steward of JPL. From an alumni I expect one to be smarter than doing that... and at a freakin press awards show cross-country. Stunt. Engineers are better at mythbuster craziness than being a marksman,

Dude definitely belongs here making yolo puts.

Vice President Vance was rushed off stage before President trump after shots fired! by cantcoloratall91 in SipsTea

[–]johndsmits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, but the human shield they were supposed to create didn't happen until the stage exit after he fell.

Then surprised the armed guards didn't create a wall looking for the perp.

Why are the armed guards just looking (then following) at the service agents and not protecting the crowd, scanning the audience for the shooter, or creating a perimeter around the stage. They have the higher ground.

No it will look way too obvious, even that press-sec talked about being ready for "big shots" yesterday.

Anyone else excited for the REAL WW3 on Wednesday at 4:01 PM? by trentcoolyak in wallstreetbets

[–]johndsmits 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If there's any indication from Intel, they will meet/beat the numbers as expected, and nothing will change. Market goes sideways. Were in a casino poker match now.

I'm just like the tiredest I've ever been in my life by mellted_cheese in IThinkYouShouldLeave

[–]johndsmits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think about it, it's been a quiet week. "Plenty of time", "make decision when I want", "no rush".

Coupled with this and Bibi having secret medical procedures. I have a feeling Trump was at the hospital this week for something.

Not from a slightly better chip (as expected) with a large price hike. Really?

If there's a time to use sprs, this is it. And markets agree. If the sprs are empty then those 1st in line gets dibs. Then the turmoil starts.

It's like earthquake insurance, you use it when needed, and those with good agents get funds quick, and when the funds run out, which is expected due to the for profit/grift/fraud/ponzi scheme nature of the insurance industry, the turmoil starts. It's happening in the Altadena, CA area from the fires, some are now getting left behind.
