o hai i have ur FAIL rite heer

Not to be outdone by Citigroup's announcement of massive FAIL the other day, yesterday banking and investment giant Merrill Lynch came out with a report of its own massive FAIL. They reported losses of $7.8 BILLION (or the equivalent of the the GDP of the Republic of the Congo) in the last quarter of 2007. All told, they reported net losses of $22.1 BILLION for the year (or, the entirety of Costa Rica's GDP).



Dammit, I never should have given Citigroup the FAIL of the year award, cuz by total losses Fail Merrill Lynch TOTALLY pwned - Citi only lost $18 billion for the year.

Okay, Lynch - you get the massive, catastrophic, outlandish FAIL of the year award.

And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
So if you don't mind my sayin, I can see you're out of aces.
For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
