| 8. | infinite recession | ||
|
The point at which a financial professional observes the market from an infinite distance, upon which he becomes part of the market and is both the observer and the observed. Infinite recession:
"Jerry - we're going into recession." "OMG! I'll withdraw all my funds from the stock market and put it into gold." "I'm gonna sell all my bank shares, that'll leave all of the hard-working people who make things without any money, while I'll have all my money in gold." "But pulling shares from the banks will take us further into recession!" "Watch me care when I have all my bling", |

| 9. | Great Depression II | ||
|
An increasingly popular term for a global economic crisis generally blamed on corporate corruption based in the U.S., especially under President George W. Bush, though its full impact will occur after Bush's departure from public office. As of January 2009, it isn't certain whether the crisis will equal or even surpass the original Great Depression in severity, though comparing the two events is akin to comparing apples and oranges. The global economic crisis that many are referring to as Great Depression II has been variously blamed on corporate corruption, globalization, capitalism, George W. Bush and greed and stupidity, all of which are coincidentally associated with Bill Gates, whose public relations team ironically promotes as a philanthropist.

|
A sarcastic term for haughty, puffed-up women (especially women of color) who think that they are really something when, in fact, they are not. more...
Detroit Councilwoman Monica Conyers, of YouTube fame, is their 2008 national poster child. Quintessential traits: 1. Regardless of economic status, Ms. Thang possesses an obnoxious personality (she is loud and rude). PRIDE blinds her from seeing how repugnant she is to the rest of society. 2. She often experiences an inner conflict when complying with people in authority (especially men), or obeying laws that she considers "wrong." Complying with societal norms can also rub her the wrong way. 3. Ms. Thang demands respect (while simultaneously treating people disrespectfully). 4. She lives life with a chip on her shoulder and, like radical Muslims, makes a freewill choice to be offended about practically everything. (If, however, she did her Ms. Thang routine in the Magic Kingdom she would be made to wear a pup tent, and then given a Muslim haircut the following Friday). 5. Those who engage Ms. Thang in discussions/debates quickly discover that she gives no deference to logic or the actual facts--she just wants to win. Rather than be pinned down with the truth (and concede a point), she constantly changes the subject, resorts to ... |
