It’s probably wrong to wish a terrorist attack would’ve happened, but I don’t know any other way to describe the feeling I felt when I saw the cast of Jersey Shore ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange this morning. Seriously, such a flagrant display of American excess in one room couldn’t be a better recruitment poster for Al Qaeda if each of these kids took turns shitting on the Qur’an.
Which the little guy in the black dress definitely did off-camera. *ducks*

JERSEY SHORE CREW REPPING IT HARD!
Rough BOOTY punisher | July 28, 2010 at 9:41 am
Did Governor C. Christie made a comment on a show he haven’t seen? hmm I wonder. And if he did see it, why would he contribute to the derailment of our society?
debagger | July 27, 2010 at 4:57 pm
First. Appalling. We’re doomed. End.
Rush | July 27, 2010 at 5:01 pm

I’m sure they can try, and who knows…

i know… with the market as volatile as it is unfortunately they’re not allowed machine guns in the workplace

“Ok, move a little closer together…and…hold it…ok, we’ve been over this a lot of times before, but is there any way you could hold in the farts for just a few minutes while we take pictures? For Christ’s sake…yes, yes I know, and guys, I appreciate the cooperation, but could you please talk to the girls???”
JRS22 | July 27, 2010 at 5:41 pm
It’s more of a terrorist act by letting these idiots live and continue to make loads of money for doing nothing.

There is one way everyone can stop Crap TV like this…
Eveyone needs to stop watching it… It’s trash

Randal(l) | July 27, 2010 at 5:55 pm
I never understood what people meant when they said terrorist hate our freedom. Now I understand, because that is what we do with our freedom. Jersey Shore has made me hate freedom, and I loved freedom. Every single MTV executive deserves to be locked away, beaten, and violently sodomized by an AIDS patient for making this happen. These people…I’m sorry…These diseased pile of gorilla excrement has made me lose all will to live. The sweet loving embrace of a swift death will free me from a world were not only are these D.P.o.G.E. not ostracized from society, but are placed on a pedestal at the worlds largest financial institutions…
…or I’ll just not watch their show, either way is cool.

dudeatdudedotdude | July 27, 2010 at 7:58 pm
the irony of how the word “freedom” is thrown around in america is that people actually have more freedom in most other western countries. socially that is. here freedoms are stripped away, one law at a time by washington, under this cloud of fear of we have to or terrorists can do stuff and the govt wont see. every time i hear a soldier say “i fought for your freedom to say that” i have to wonder, are they rolling tanks into the capitol today?? al qaida, the british, ze germanz, none of them took any freedom from us. only our lawmakers. what’s FREE is our enterprise market. no regulations. it’s the perfect place for a businessman to rape and pillage. and through this market other countries are bought and sold like bananas. that’s what the rest of the world hate. and we do it on credit lol. right sean? you’re workplace? or you at a different floor.
missywissy | July 28, 2010 at 2:16 pm

ChuckleStain | July 27, 2010 at 5:56 pm
Seeing this really makes me want to end it all…and by that I mean my cable and internet subscriptions! (rimshot and riotous laughter follow)
SpaghettiCat | July 27, 2010 at 6:07 pm
What the fuck happened to this country?
dudeatdudedotdude | July 27, 2010 at 8:00 pm
deregulation. blame nixon, reagan, and the second bush.
LittleCupcakes | July 28, 2010 at 1:32 am
Wow, I thought that picture would be the stupidest thing I’ve seen today. But no!
Regulation was the problem. Blame FDR, Carter, Nixon, the second Bush, Buttfuck Obama
Free people+free market=Incredible Fucking Prosperity. Always happens, always will.
Ifukyurmama | July 28, 2010 at 6:10 am
Uh, listen dipshit, your Ayn Rand “deregulate everything” bullshit is what you got under Bush 2 and it’s why the worlds economy was brought to the brink of disaster. Got it you fucking retard! Here’s a good metaphor, regulations are like the traffic lights, stop signs and speed limits in New York city. Now, take those away during rush hour and that, my low IQ’ed friend, is what you get with deregulation. A disaster waiting to happen.
dudeatdudedotdude | July 28, 2010 at 8:06 am
LittleCupcakes = typical righty dittohead. CLUE: the time when USA had the highest growth rate ever (1950s) was when regulations abounded–and the rich were taxed at 91%. NINETY ONE. Look it up. Tax plus regulation = prosperity. Hmph how bout dem apples.
JP | July 28, 2010 at 12:39 pm
#dudeatdudedotdude – most Americans don’t even pay taxes (look it up), they are shifted up to the wealthy. Why is that always lauded as a good thing by socialist fucktards like you?
FrankNfrtr | July 27, 2010 at 7:01 pm
I am so lucky. My spouse hates broadcast TV; we don’t watch it & haven’t had cable or satellite for many, many years.
Except for the endless parade of internet rubbish on demand we are completely insulated from this shit.
Yet I can still pick out “Snookie” in a police lineup. That’s what I call mass marketing.
Seriously | July 27, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Maybe I’m taking this too seriously but, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???
GeneralEmergency | July 27, 2010 at 8:34 pm
When they asked Snooki if she would like the honor of banging the gavel, she replied “Who?”.
no joke | July 27, 2010 at 8:37 pm
Completely serious: MTV needs to at the very least put a WARNING at the beginning of “jersey shore” because people should be warned like they are with cigarettes, “jackass”, and alcohol.
Freebie | July 27, 2010 at 8:57 pm
This is so sad. What has happened to our country when people like this are put on a pedestal? Is it like this in other countries too? Is it worldwide? Please, please let their 15 minutes end already.
James | July 28, 2010 at 4:11 am
Nope, it’s unique to the good ole U.S. of A.
Most likely though, the Wall Street opening/closing bell celeb thing is just another purchased PR opportunity. See the huge Viacom logo there?
dantman | July 27, 2010 at 10:39 pm
why do you even make these people relevant????

What asswipes. Who the hell watches this show? Other asswipes I guess.

Douchebags all around. If anything, the kind of people who work in stocks are the same kind of people that JS is, just less cheesy and more diabolical. Fuck them all.
captain america | July 28, 2010 at 6:14 am
be honst: WE MUST AGREE WITH THE TERRORISTS NOW?
missywissy | July 28, 2010 at 2:27 pm
as a woman, I can easily say no. I don’t want to have to cover up in a bhurka and get a beating when I walk down the street because I looked at another man or something.

The NYSE closed down a point today.
Salim | July 28, 2010 at 9:55 am
I am muslim and I don’t have anything to remark about American’s way of freedom: it’s your culture, even if means freedom of stupidity or trash, as I read from you; what I would like is that you leave us alone living our lives and stop creating hoaxes to justify your government intentions to steal our lands goods and trials to criminalize and destroy our culture. You can keep your TV and movies and music, and all those celebrities, but hands off our lands.
Salim | July 28, 2010 at 9:59 am
And, by the way, we are tought not to hate anybody, even our enemies or who attempt to us and our families lifes, but when we are attacked we simply have to defend ourselves. HATE is a word USA uses against us, but we are always in peace, just come to visit our countries and you’ll see. Thanks a lot, may God enlight your life.
Rough BOOTY punisher | July 28, 2010 at 10:13 am
No thanks! I am staying right here in my comfy attic. Being shark bait is not one of my dream…
Salim | July 28, 2010 at 12:30 pm
Thank you for your nice comment, I agree you better stay home. Peace.
missywissy | July 28, 2010 at 2:32 pm
ummm…. I tried reading the Koran once and some of the first words in it is “all nonbelievers should die”. First page was full of “negativity”. Scared the shit out of me. I respect you if your ideas are peaceful, but the only folks strapping bombs to themselves or to retarded people that don’t know what’s going on are your fellow worshippers. How is this peaceful? I agree our govt. is using Islam as a means of their own propaganda, but nobody is going to have sympathy for you when you don’t practice what you preach.
Salim | July 29, 2010 at 7:24 am
This is because you prefer to believe your broadcasted news than approaching normal believers, and surely you have in your country, who care their families and jons, and like to live in peace. Then, imagine to wake up one day in your town, and find it full of strangers dressed like soldiers and shooting no matter who, children included, tanks everywhere and planes bombing, pretending they have to establish peace. Wouldn’t you get rid of all that in any possible way? Better watching crap tv sitcoms and believe muslim die each day to allow you living your freedom. Sorry I know this is not the place to talk about faith, but when they label us as haters I can’t shut up. In case, you can say we criticize your values, and your need to export them, but not that WE HATE YOU because of them. More, if you open a holy book (Koran or Bible or Torah) looking for violence and war, you surely find them, but when you turn on the tv looking for entertainment and you realise you only find crap and shallow role models, then it’s time to ask yourself if your society’s values are good or not, and not to blame muslims for not accepting them. Peace.

Uhhh…
…what would be the enetertainment value to the vapid gizmos who watch this idiotic show in having their “stars” open up the market?
Hell, you know the low-brow “cast” of this shitty show, especially that fugly cow Snooki, have no clue about finances and the market. So what brainiac in the production end figured this would be of any interest to the morons who watch them?
Stunning how far down this nation’s been reduced.

ugottabekidding | July 28, 2010 at 10:23 am
And to think, they said the end of the world would be upon us in 2012. They were only off by a couple of years.
missywissy | July 28, 2010 at 2:25 pm
I don’t know, if you think about it, the whole concept is fitting. Here we have a failing economy, and here’ s these people with a “reality show” representing the opening of another day of crap economy. I think it’s genious. As a matter of fact, the terrorists are probably just laughing their asses off watching what is being allowed and how we are screwing ourselves.
I don’t even know these kids, but I just want to punch them in the face. I can’t believe this is the standard now and it’s what gets PAID. I’ll be glad when the air brushed tan, tatoo laden, body piercing, boob implanting phase goes away and natural beauty and hard work is hailed. I’d like to see a reality show with people working their asses off and making a contribution to the human race. I wish all these Paris Hiltons would dissappear. I’d just like to thank all the people that buy their shit and watch their shows for demeaning the rest of America.
Samba | July 28, 2010 at 2:28 pm
Wow… You americans sure are retarded. Thanks you for reminding me once again why I’ll never even visit, let alone live, in your coutry
ugottabekidding | July 28, 2010 at 2:53 pm
Hey Samba! Why stop there, my green cardless friend? You can stop visiting our websites too! lol
Carolyn | July 28, 2010 at 2:55 pm
Our “coutry?” Please stay home and forget to remind yourselves that we the retarded are the most generous people on earth. Of course we make mistakes like everyone, but so many of us try to be decent.
Carolyn | July 28, 2010 at 2:55 pm
Comment was supposed to be attached to “Samba.”
ugottabekidding | July 28, 2010 at 3:02 pm
No worries, Carolyn. I knew it was meant for that ignoramus. :)

Oh. you like dick. I’m sorry.
Then why dont you go play in traffic blind-folded.
fenomas69 | July 29, 2010 at 12:32 am
These talentless fucks! I don’t even watch tv, and still I see these sorry shmucks too much..
I cannot fuckin fathom how people consider this Jersey shore garbage entertainment..
It would have been a joyous moment had it been an execution.

ugottabekidding | July 29, 2010 at 10:48 am
Yea, she’s not dressed badly, but did you see the pics on the trading floor where she’s holding a phone as if she’s actually talking to someone?? What a dope! LOL
