LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

Just heard a great line on a Bloomberg interview with Barry Sternlicht in response to a question about the situation of retail, "how much of the problem is the Pandemic and how much of it is Amazon".

The response was:  "Amazon is the Pandemic!" (followed by a tirade about Amazon's predatory practices).
Why is that a great line?
Stores should do better. Let the most convenient option win. If we need to redevelop some retail to housing, so be it.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

In case you haven't noticed, I don't always post things that I necessarily agree with. I just think it's a great line in that context. I do think Amazon engages in highly predatory practices (from what I hear - I'm not an Amazon seller). And for the retailer suffering from the Amazon effect, the line accurately describes their point of view: Amazon IS the pandemic!

Sternlicht's position (he's a real estate guy) was that the best retailers are those that can use online and brick and mortar to compliment each other.

Interesting that someone who calls himself a "401k Specialist/Gelt Guide" fails to have a basic understanding of chapter 11 bankruptcy. Unless of course, he does understand it and he's just making a poorly worded, very poor attempt at yeshivish humor.

I don't know him so well, but I'd definitely assume that he understands bankruptcy well.

I don't know him at all. Definitely the latter. Always assume humor/sarcasm in online posts, unless coming from radicals from either side of the spectrum (or even more moderate left wing who always take life way too gravely).

Of course I knew it was the latter, I was just in the mood of being overly facetious.
