After I gave him $1, he asked me how the “market” was doing.

“Market? Do you mean the price-weighted average of 30 publicly traded securities as chosen by Dow Jones & Company.”

Blank stare.

“Cause that ain’t the market. That index is up a bit this week tho. :D”

I’m within spitting distance of the worlds smallest Golfsmith.

But, I provided links and smarmy commentary. That counts for something, right? I’m trying to develop a rivalry with The Random Guy over here. How am I supposed to do that if you’re going to call me out for scooping me?
