Bain

  1. @TheophilKipoma I made huge profits? Where's they go? I may have stretched the truth about my dancing prowess, but "fraud" seems unfair
  2. @CoryBooker @dawn9476 I'm pretty sure Mitt's not running on MY business record. Mitt (briefly) went to Stanford. Isn't that worth something?
  3. @FakeBain Somehow, I missed this the first time around. I love that you created a Quora account.
  4. @brentgrinna Psyched we got to catch up. Sounds like you're kicking ass and taking names.
  5. Cool new role open in mobile analytics at Facebook, if you know anyone who likes Facebook & mobile apps: on.fb.me/Iaa4gD
  6. @Thranth Yup, just having fun. You have a good one, too. BTW, Romney's actually a really good guy.
  7. @Thranth My 2002 Highlander has taken a beating, but it'd be a stretch to say I destroyed the auto industry.
  8. @JerLevine Great meeting you too. Your product looks awesome!
  9. @JohnnyHVan Glad you liked my book, but I don't remember writing it.
  10. @randalleason This seems right up your alley: historyshots.com/augusta/index.…
  11. @JohnMaloney Am I crazy or is that your family picture on my son's daycare classroom wall? Evil doppelgänger? twitter.com/Bain/status/18…
  12. So it's come to this. To give @OliverBain a place to run around on a rainy day, we're headed to Ikea. A high-risk maneuver.
  13. @DrinkBeerN0tTea I'm pretty sure I don't own ClearChannel, but I do enjoy said tsunami.
  14. @SharonMcWillis I made $343M?!?! My wife's gonna be so bummed that I didn't tell her.
  15. @wchutch that game sucked. We probably ran 30 miles right before it, too.
  16. @Eisenberg I'm heartbroken, but it's also so nice to see a "mention" that's not misplaced Romney venom. Good luck tomorrow. I'm terrified.
  17. @SharonMcWillis why did you say "@bain" which means something specific on twitter, if you meant "at Bain"?
  18. @rcrockett that's not fair; I've never closed a single company.
  19. @SharonMcWillis I had a lot of fun in my twenties, but I'm almost positive I never stole anyone's pension
