ING goes"bye buy"

[djroga22]

Capitol One is making the move from number 9 big bank to number 6 big bank by buying ING. Thus we continue the move toward fewer choices.

[N-OS X-tasy!]

That sucks. ING was actually a pretty decent bank.

Not to mention that both my and my wife's 401(k)s are with ING. Since I hate Capitol One with a burning, undying passion, this comes as particularly bad news.

Wait, what?

People here seemed fond of ING but I hadn't got around to seriously considering it.
Maybe Capitol One can buy Facebook and make that go away too?

Sorry, but you cannot compare the two.
Facebook is useful, but I'm not sure the nation or the world can survive without gerunds.

I'm wondering if this also means that Sharebuilder got bought, or if its assets were separate.

Well, I'm go . . . I intend to try to see if I can go 24 hours without the use of a gerund just to prove you wrong.

Right, that was very silly. Next obscure grammatical reference, please...
