That's about as funny as an audience with Tony Slattery.

Oh I get it now, funny as in painful.

And on that note, I'll be sure to include toilet humour in my next thread to appeal to the masses

You could redeem yourself by saying "willies" now...

Making fart noises normally suffices.

As an intern (not at CG), I got this in the explosion too. She's in Citigroup's property team in their Equity Research dept (not a particularly good one compared to other firm's ones - like mine, for example).

What a shame...

Your reputation in tatters before you've even graduated!

(that said, other than arrival times and instructions for entry, it's not too dissimilar to other invites I've had)

Can I say 'wang' instead?

Just got the follow-up email, guys...

-----------------------------------

Hi Fellow Citigroup Interns,

Just to clear a few things up, now that it is seriously getting out of
control, it was suppose to be an internal joke between me and a couple
of my guests (Yeah right! - Seft) to my 21st Party. The actual party was great, and nothing
like it so please do not worry. I should not have used my Citigroup
email account in the first place so I apologise for that.

I am sorry if you found the content of the invitation details offensive
and I am glad to entertain. But please stop now because it is getting
really unprofessional and unnecessary, and a lot of you know me anyway
and have heard about this so I apologise for repeating this again, but
hopefully for the final time.

Cheers everyone and have a great time this evening.
See you soon.

Lucy

I got sent party pics too

Hahah I shall find out within about 1/2 hour what she says is correct.
What I do know for certain is that she's changed her mobile number due to everyone calling her, from friends, jokers and the media.

You have party pics?!? If you are willing to send them, I shall email you shortly

Seconded! And if we were allowed to double post, I'd third it too.

Citibank must indeed be proud of this year's batch of interns.

So witty Borris.

Edit: You forgot to mention that my sentence structure is poor, prog instead of program and half my sentences dont have a capital letter. jack@ss. Go find something better to do than criticise others.

Gazzavaz, in your batch of interns have you come across an Olek?

andi · 25 Aug 2006 at 17:55

So, we're laughing because she's posh right...?

About as funny as herpes.

Truly, I'm crippled by the ferocity of that comeback.

I think it was funnier today when somebody made a mistake at work and I caught the flak for it....

Sorry about that - didn't upload them as I was at work.

Forgot to email them to my home adress and I'm on holiday next week. I'm sure someone else must have a copy as I'm not even a Citigroupie

Borris grow up mate. Why you have to turn such a simple comment into something so childish is beyond me. All i simply did was post about the fact I knew the girl involved. It did not require you to start analysing how good or bad my English is, or how good Citigroup Interns are.

Quite frankly these type of comments occur all too frequently in GD so I am hardly surprised by your attitude. Ill remember next time not to offer an opinion or information if thats how people react to it.

Please feel free to pass judgement on my grammar, vocab etc in this post. I after all can expect nothing less.
