Hope next time Steve, Murthy, or BarryJANA go to the local WF the cashiers with tatts, and "industrials" and "donut holes" ear piercings glare at them and toss their fresh fruit and eggs into their quilted WF zipper bags. Because this is all their fault!

They should make copper sidewalks in SF. All the homeless can help beautify the city. And somebody can get a unicorn valuation with a piss sharing app
Why bronze? Surely BarryJANA would prefer one made of copper--because it turns green--like money! The beauty of copper is that the lovely green patina is actually enhanced by p*ssing on it! (Yes, this is TRUE! My family is in construction, building public buildings.)
BronzeBarry, which way will the stock go? Thank you BronzeBarry, our dear leader. http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/multimedia/archive/00061/Korea6_61396b.jpg
$100 bills are too small a denomination. They aren't even coke-straw worthy. He might as well just make gold coins with his likeness on the front, and Irwin's on the back. Patents, like gold, are considered barbarous relics by some.
The problem with most art from the WWII Axis powers through Cold War Communist countries is it's so utilitarian! Somehow I can't imagine BarryJANA approving a bronze statue of himself dressed in an Armani suit to be installed on Morehouse lawn where any anchovy bloated seagull can poop on it. He strikes me as more the type who would pose for an Anne Liebowitz photo of himself in an antique claw-footed bathtub filled to overflowing with $100 bills--or maybe QCOM stock certificates!
Would Barry visit one of the axis powers? I can't wait til Barry is deified in bronze on morehouse lawn. Mussolini style.
165106: Sigh, so true! People taking pictures of other people chewing is so declasse! But at least now I have a sneaking suspicion what the new corporate jet is for: So BarryJANA can fly to France or Italy for lunch on the company dime! I suppose the food in the QC cafeteria will be further downgraded to compensate. GRRRR!
You know Barry has impeccable tastes. He wouldn't do lunch for under 2 Michelin stars. And certainly not anywhere the plebs can dine, taking goddamn Instagram photos of the food.
164883: I wouldn't eat at Momofuku! David Chang has pretty much jumped the shark, IMO. Deconstructing Chinese cuisine for "round eyes" was bad enough. Charging top dollar for overglorified ramen is even worse! I'm sure the drinks start at about $20 each, and go up from there. But I can just see BarryJANA at a place like that, because--hey! He doesn't know any better: "Oh, garcon, what kind of wine goes best with the BO SSAM?"
Anonymous164561, I was joking about zabars. It was even mentioned on Seinfeld or a larry david interview I think. If you've been there you would see its not a place for hedge fund titans like Barry (other than being owned by the same tribe). Those guys all must have personal chefs who fly to Copenhagen to forage for ramps with 3 star Michelin chefs
Bateman: Zabar's isn't exactly exclusive, either. They do email orders! It's like Amazon.com for people who like decent caviar and lox! If you have a credit card, you too can order a can of Beluga shipped express air. Impress your friends this Xmas season. But for god's sake don't use a sterling silver spoon to serve it; use horn. Best served on freshly made blini with a bit of chopped boiled egg, Russian style yogurt (--not the non-fat crap), or (shudder) whipped cream cheese for the Americans who don't know any better.
Barry shops at zabar's. Not some damn chain store.
Anonymous164406, $100 would be a bargain. Probably can't get out of momofuku for less than that, after a few drinks
164329: No, BarryJANA is probably the type who thinks 3 Georges Banks scallops pan seared in olive oil and herbs, served with 3 sauteed shitake mushrooms on a bed of arugula that has been kissed with a touch of balsimico and pan drippings and topped with brightly colored microgreens is a bargain at $100/person in the newest trendy eatery in NYC. So keep that image of Barry getting down with the rest of the New York Times food critics in that plastic lobster bib he wears to protect his silk tie.
164331: Well, actually, most of the time I tend to blend in more with the homeless; but I'm probably one of the few people on this board who can actually cook. I like having access to a large variety of fresh seasonal vegetables, fresh spices, and bulk items like dozens of bean, lentils, rice and mushroom varieties in one place.
OP, do you shop at whole foods thinking it makes you look rich?
Why would they shop at a ghetto place like that. They should have personal, exclusive farmers and ranchers. I bet barryjana loves pastured pork! LOL
