>>>Why are most all of you guys shorting this stock so obnoxious? Go and start your own "Let's short BIDS" thread. Did you not get enough attention as kids? Just wondering why you all act so damn "proud"?

All it takes is one short to go seriously wrong for them to end up on the street. I say learn from history. Look at how many people's lives were destroyed when they decided to short some of the big inuts. They used to post messages that were just as cocky as these guys on the EBAY and AMZN and YHOO threads. Where are they now? Trying to rebuild their lives, that's where. Shorting is a great way to make money, but the incredibly high risk (in the 1% chance that you're wrong) for such minimal returns ($20 stock) is just stupid. The experienced shorts will know when to throw in the towel and cover. Whether they cover on the way down or the way up, both will force this stock upwards. The more shorters there are, the stronger the upwards momentum will be. I hate to be making money at the expense of others getting screwed, but they're all grown up and supposedly experienced, intelligent people. Let em short. I welcome it!
