"Here's a way to mimic funds"

I almost lost my fucking shit when I saw that.

This was way back on DU2 or whatever, so I'm not even sure if the thread can be dragged out of the internet dungeon, but it was a winner, that's for sure.

I had a couple run-ins with that particular moron. He tried to tell me about commodities futures trading (of which I know a tiny bit, but never studied or took the test for the license) and when I asked him something like "If your contract gets exercised, what happens?" he basically, as the Brits have a lovely way of putting it, threw his teddy out of the pram!
