Hey, baby
I got a nice hot bowl of steamy ra-men noodles, I was just about to ...dig in.
WOULD you, like to join me?

I would still totally hit that.

No! Because Kendra Todd says that bubbles are for bathtubs and that prices will keep going up forever.

Here's a better question for you, Keith: who has the lower IQ, Kendra Todd or this blog's troll who works flipping burgers while he claims that prices are still climbing and that he has a job that pays over 100k a year and cannot find qualified workers?

And yet the spin continues. I got a 'google alert' about an upcoming seminar (reservations required, yea right!)being held by a rep of the local realtwhores and a rep of the home insurance industry. Topic: Its never been a better time to buy! OR The REAL TRUTH about the so called housing bubble!

Ruined a perfectly good keyboard damnit! And wouldn't you know, theres no more coffee in the damn house!

No b/c people have the attention span of a nanosecond, and will do it again just as in the past, sad, very sad.


PS. I'd tap that...

Clearly the internet and the current downturn will show that the real estate agent hayday to be 2005.
Will they cease to exist? No, there will always be timid people who want thier hands held, must like some people use "personal shoppers" at a high-end retail store.
Used car dealers are still around despite the internet, ebay, Carmax, Automat, whatever.
I'm no fan of the real estate agents, but this blog has exaggerated the report of their death, I think.

I wonder if she gives head on a listing appointment? I want to shag her on my kitchen table as she lays out the deal.At least realtors are good for one thing besides takeing your money.

I don't know about forever discredited, especially when you have hotties like that pushing the product, but it will take about two generations for it to lose its stigma...

In your dreams renters...hotties like that don't go for the middle aged, bald, fat renting type that hangs out on bubble boards all day.

You see out in the real world anyone who is a renter past the age of 30 is a loser. Anyone who drives a 10 year old Honda like you idiots is a loser.

Losers don't get women like her. Actually losers don't get any women which explains the anger displayed here. So keep talking about 50% crashes, great depressions, black helicopters and spanking it to stories of subprime foreclosures. That's about as much action as you'll ever get.

"Losers don't get women like her"

Obviously this clown doesn't realize that prices (in any market) are set at the margins. The collapse of subprime (now bleeding over to Alt-A) have decimated the fantasy of a greater fool to come along and take your place on the gallows for at least another 10 years.

If rejoicing at the end of a decade long era of easy money qualifies as "spanking it" you'll be relieved to know that 40% of the loans out there that "might" have saved your bacon, just left town.

When I see an authenticated photograph with you, Kendra and a fully paid deed to your "love nest" THEN I'll be impressed. Until then keep slammin' the ham and praying prices don't go down any further, LOANOWNER!

OMFG I'm a loser. And, my illegal immigrant maid who does own a house is a winner -- she does drive an old car, but in my mind; still a winner.

WEIRD!!!

Oh yea, and my wife is way hotter than Kendra. So your theory, much like its author, is very weak.

David in JAX said...

Anyone over the age of 30 who has a car payment doesn't know how to manage their finances. And leasing a car, oh no.

I don't think anyone would consider me a 33 year old loser for making good cash on my last house, sitting out a couple of years while the market fades, and then paying cash for a nicer home.

"In your dreams renters...hotties like that "

Uhhh... I don't want people like here. Unlike, you, most men think I.Q. does count for something.

"don't go for the middle aged, bald, fat renting type that hangs out on bubble boards all day."

That describes you to a T, except that you do not pay rent to live in your mamma's basement.

"You see out in the real world anyone who is a renter past the age of 30 is a loser. Anyone who drives a 10 year old Honda like you idiots is a loser. "

And you expect us to believe that you have a job that pays over 100k a year.

"Losers don't get women like her. Actually losers don't get any women which explains the anger displayed here. "

Again, that describes you to a T.

"So keep talking about 50% crashes, great depressions, black helicopters and spanking it to stories of subprime foreclosures. That's about as much action as you'll ever get. "

You're such a bitter old man.

Come on people admit it. Someone who looks like Kendra wouldn't give you the time of day unless you drove a $50K car and owned something north of 7 figures.

subprime, alt-a or anything else will not change that

the bubble is not playing anything like was predicted by HP. By now prices were supposed to have dropped 30%. Instead we have a 3% drop.

keep dreaming losers, you'll be driving your shitbox accord and living in your ghetto 1 bedroom for years and years.

For professional services that involve lots of money (purchase of a car/house) or medical/legal things I usually do not go to people who are young and attractive because their looks greatly influenced how well they did in school and got where they are.

I would never go to a doctor under at least 40 years of age. As for a realator, mine was a 40 something woman that wore no makeup, drove a dirty dodge pickup, and wore blue jeans the day we closed the deal (back in 1997 before this stupidity of prices going up 10-20% a year started).

Looks are just window dressing as are clothes. Do not be fooled. Just look at all of the members in the US congress....all TOTAL IDIOTS unfit to even manage a small gas station. The show they put on wearing dark suits while surrounded by buildings made of stone and furnished with wood and leather fools so many people into thinking the Congress is full of intelligent and capable people....NOT!

It depends on where you live. Here in Florida, the crash is happening much faster than HP predicted. In NE Florida (where the "experts" said it could never happen), we are less than one year off peak and prices are already down over 15% (not including incentives and cash back) and inventory is at record levels.

Most of my friends who have dated women like that have been the unemployed actor / artist types. Women like that go for the worthless, unshaven types who drive dented SUV's with bad bumper stickers on the back. The key always appears to be a bad boy / screw you attitude.

Anonymous said...

Whatever she looks like, any woman who would base her dating decisions on the car I drive, or the house I live in is not worth the time of day. I will never take style, over substance. Oh, and by the way, my wife is hot, and smart :)

Just offerd on a 4k sqr. foot house in CO foothills , no buyers agent. Listed $450k, offered $280k. Listing agent after long, uncomfortable pause, "Shit, he'll probably take it." Response, "I think he probably will, FBer." No Bubble here!

Frank R said...

I think the realtor "profession" has been discredited for a long time. For years before the bubble I've known many people who already despised working with them. And for years they were rated as the bottom of the barrel as far as ethics go, along with used car salesmen and stockbrokers.

I've never heard a more insipid, nonsensical statement than "bubbles are for bathtubs". That quote wins the booby prize. She does have nice boobies.

Your oversimplification and stereotyping is illogical and can't be any farther from the truth. Keep making your assumptions; soon enough, a good-looking, shrewd, young business man is going to walk all over you and take your money before you even realize what happened. You fool.

Dude, you don't need a $50K car or a 7 figure salary- even the fattest smelliest dude can score the hottest chicks if he has some coke.

Hey dumbass, if you say the sky is pink, it doesn't make it so.

We have a drop of at least 25% in Phx neighborhoods, and more in some areas here.

Keep saying "3%" if it makes you happy. You're just plain wrong and everyone knows it.

I see a day when there will be no such thing as a Realtor(r). I mean, seriously, do we really need anyone to help us buy a house. With the internet it is now easier than ever to find houses for sale without any intermediaries. Let buyers and sellers meet, hell it is these people whoe really drive the market and the abolition of Realtors(R) can only save them money. I could never understand why a Realtor(r...sigh) got thousands of dollars for a job that looks like nothing, so much nothing it is barely a job. At the very least realtors should get flat rates, not this 6% money-for-nothing BS.

"Come on people admit it. Someone who looks like Kendra wouldn't give you the time of day unless you drove a $50K car and owned something north of 7 figures."
I'll bite the bait:
1. Dudes, she ain't all that. Hovering around a 7 on 1-10 scale.

2. I'm nothing special; decent-looking, in OK shape, etc. Can easily pull women like her and better.

3. And...surprise! Beauty's only skin deep, boys. Get out from behind the computer, ask out the sexiest kitty you can find, and be amazed out how crazy, stupid, unsanitary, bad with money, ignorant, bi-polar, substance-addicted or whatever she is. Arguing over whether you can get a Hawt Babe? What are you, in high school? I thought HPers were all about REALITY. OPEN YOUR EYES - lots of couples are not equally matched for attractiveness. That is reality. If a hot piece of ass is all you want, go on out there and get it, boys. It's like picking apples off a tree. In fact, don't settle for someone who does not rock your world - start with looks, then demand the rest. Life's too short!
4. The quote is correct for the wrong reasons - Kendra's value system, not her "stellar beauty" makes her unattainable to "losers" like us. Thank God!

Anonymous said...

My favorite line from Kendra was the following:

"Housing isn't like the stock market; it's like a drive through the mountains. You have peaks and valleys..."

Tee hee. Where is the "don't ask me, I'm just a girl" follow-up?

But I agree with pmd. I would also definately tap that.

I don't understand the taste of some men. There is nothing special about Kendra Todd, not to mention the fact that she is just plain dumb. Ginger Lynn is far better looking than Kendra ever was.

I think the D. delegated that job to a subordinate, something about not being able to "pencil her in".

The experienced women in real estate sales know that
looks alone is not enough, one has to have what the adult film business calls "talent" That, and up to date innoculations.

If the internet can replace realtors then the internet can replace the entire service sector of our economy. Though I agree there are some unethical realtors, I also believe there are some highly professional, college educated realtors who do a fine job. As for the internet replacing their value, you must have had a really bad one...I had a bad attorney once too
