You continue to live down to expectations.
And the expectations for you is to continue as a lowly troll of the worst kind.
Why would I want to be like you?

Thanks, saved my fingers from typing.
I think even you're smart enough to realize how dumb that statement is.

Earnie:First quarter earnings are looking good according to FactSet.
Ghost of Igloi:FactSet uses non-GAAP earnings and they are inflated.
Earnie:FactSet uses actual results.
Ghost of Igloi:’Actual results’ are GAAP.
Earnie:But you said FactSet numbers were non-GAAP.
Ghost of Igloi:Ya sure. Sa Wha Eva ya Sa? Ya know?
Investment Advisor:The non-GAAP numbers aren’t overly inflated. The article you posted says the median difference is less than 12%.
Ghost of Igloi:That number is soooo insignificant.
Investment Advisor:But you said that non-GAAP numbers are significantly higher than GAAP numbers?
Ghost of Igloi:Ya sure. Sa Wha Eva ya Sa? Ya know?
Say wha?:Can you tell us why that 12% number is insignificant?
Ghost of Igloi:You don’t even know that the forward PE is not 18, but 20. You just invent stuff to make the market look good. You are a foolish sap.
Say wha?:I didn’t make up anything. I just asked a question.
Ghost of Igloi:If you ask in a mature and respectful way, I might answer.
Say wha?:Fair enough. So why do you refer to 2016 data as “forward†earnings?
Ghost of Igloi:Ya sure. Sa Wha Eva ya Sa? Ya know?
Say wha?, Investment Advisor, and Earnie:Huh?
Ghost of Igloi:They're coming to take me away, ha ha, he he, hoo hoo...
Say wha?, Investment Advisor, and Earnie:We’re outta here.

Oh, snap!
The "funny farm" applies to your obsessions with Igy.
That's actually pretty funny and does a good job of highlighting the conundrum that is Igy.
Detector Dude, an enigma wrapped in an enema.
Well done. Illustrates Igy's hypocrisy/confusion.

Potential client: Where would you suggest I invest my money?
Ghost of Ig|oi: Well the stock market is going to crash - I can't tell you exactly when, but it WILL crash - so I recommend you have the bulk of your money in cash and CDs.
Potential client: But my money won't grow enough to even keep up with inflation.
Ghost of Igloi: Yes, but you won't lose a lot of your money in the inevitable stock market crash. You'll lose a little buying power, but so what.
Potential client: But the stock market always recovers from crashes and goes up over 70% of the time. How am I going to be able to retire if my money isn't growing in the stock market?
Ghost of Igloi: Ah ya, awesome...like ya....totally......
Potential client: What?
Ghost of Igloi: They're coming to take me away, ha ha, he he, hoo hoo...

Boy, if this don't totally sum up his contribution to this thread. Best post ever.
To Detector Dude and his Clones:
Thanks for noticing me.
Yours Affectionately,

You're actually quite entertaining. Some folks just don't get the joke. Thanks for posting.
Here is one entertaining post:

A. You're quoting yourself and saying it's entertaining. That's extreme narcissism, but we should expect that from a Trump fanboy.
B. I don't think you know what an enema is. Your not wrapping anything in one.
