You'll have to agree that this is much more practical... and less expensive... than some silly sports car. It's a real BARGAIN!! (PM me for my PayPal account ID.)

1. Timeshares!!!
:D
Are they really only asking 87? If so, that really is a bargain! Those usually go for a whole lot more.

11. What? I don't recall saying that I wanted to bring HIM?
He is a PITA today.



(although, I do, on most days, love him to death. His card got eaten at the ATM, and SOMEHOW that is MY fault)

Go fucking figure.

20. Actually Hef rents limos
Or charters a jet for long trips. But mostly he stays home, and everyone else comes to him. Why leave the house?

you know, every once in awhile, i hear about some guy wrecking one of these because he turned on the cruise control on the highway and got up to use the bathroom or pop some popcorn....hopefully our own arwalden keeps both eyes on the road!

26. Pretty sure those are urban legends...
Otherwise we'd see pictures of wrecked RV's in our inbox, with "Freeper set it on cruise control" captions...

Back in 1979, I musta heard the "Iranian who set his Cadillac on cruise control, and hopped in the back seat to take a nap" story a brazillion times.

31. Hey, this is a great idea!
If every DUer sent me just $1, I'd have an $87,000 salary! Hey, if we all did that, we could all quit our jobs and post on DU all day!

33. now you're on to something!
if everybody gave everybody else a buck or two, we could help everybody achieve their dreams and end poverty!

better yet, if DU pooled all its cash, we could afford to create our own liberal commune/city! We could all live in the same community, and all the lounge folks could meet up in a bar at the town centre! utopia at last, and we wouldn't even need the internets anymore....

36. It's a struggle...
... but many meals are microwavable. Also we have a Coleman propane grill that folds down for easy storage. The main course is often cooked outside under the awning or the screened-in folding gazebo... and the side dishes are cooked inside.

You DO have to make some sacrifices whenever you ROUGH IT in the wild like this.
