Me and Mrs. 88 went to see the Bare Naked Ladies last night in Vail, CO. Between songs the lead singer told a story about a dude he knows who has been fucking with Amazon.com for three years now. He bought a boomerang and then returned it. In the section that asks why, he wrote “Get it?” They refunded his cash so he ordered it again and immediately returned with the same reason. He’s been doing that every month for more than three years. I just think that is funny as hell.

Sounds like someone with too much time on his hands. One or two rounds I could see, just for a laugh, but what’s the ultimate goal here…to get into Guinness or something? Obviously nobody at Amazon GARA.

Out here for a wedding and some vacation time. The concert was an unexpected treat.
Steven Wright is excellent. And the dude fucking with Amazon has more free time than I do.

Yes. Not having to shell out to fix a washing machine is great.

Who ever fixes a washing machine anymore? If it breaks down just put it out on the curb and order a new one from Amazon to be delivered tomorrow.

I feel sorry for urban libtards. They basically live in dumpster and spend their days telling each other “Isn’t this the greatest?!” It’s always funny when you meet one who has fled the concrete jungle and moved into a part of the country they were programmed to look down on. They are so shocked to find out that the new location is not the shithole they lived in and always thought was the greatest.

Yet, you had to go to Vail for entertainment. Too funny.
I can cross the Golden Gate bridge and be in a Redwood Forest and watch the salmon run under the tallest trees in the World and be there in 15 minutes. I can walk eight blocks and be in a park larger than New York Central Park.
I can drive a few hours and be in Lake Tahoe or Yosemite. We just had snow a couple of weeks ago in the Sierra's. The highest mountains in the United States outside of Alaska.
I have the most beautiful Ocean in the World blocks from where I live and go surfing 3 or 4 times a week.
I also don't have to listen to the bare naked ladies for music. I think you know the World famous music scene in The City and Bay Area.
I know south florida, I've been to south florida, and my friend... south florida is a shithole outside of Miami.
Enjoy your time in Liberal Vail, CO.
We are still waiting for the funny part of your story. Don't keep us in suspense.

People from all over the country and world come to DC to live, work, go to school and recreate. It's full of well educated, ambitious and interesting people who choose career paths they care passionately about.
You, on the other hand, stayed in a boring regional capital where only people from Ohio and other third-rate regions like Kentucky, Indiana and the mid-south would settle for living in. Then you moved to South Florida where you can't insure your home and you have public health officials lying to residents.

I think the two urban libtards just underscored the veracity of my take. Both places are great if you accept street violence, needles on the streets, ridiculously expensive ordinary things etc. I’ve only visited Omaha briefly once, but I’m fairly certain that anything available at a shop in SF or DC for way too much can be dropped on the doorstep in Omaha in 24 hours or so. I’ve been to DC and SF many times. The best part of each visit is departing.
In DC and SF, they don’t know what it’s like to set up a smoker in their own backyard and make brisket. Never have they dug a hole, filled it with the coals from a bonfire and then roasted a pig wrapped in banana leaves in their own back yard. They have never considered growing some corn on their own land and then eating at the peak of perfection within an hour of it being picked. The best they can do is visit farm market, where produce has been brought to them and upcharged by a zillion dollars.
I also find it funny that the people in DC and SF think there is some sort of brain trust or magic happening there. Too fucking funny. It’s a bootlicking, asskissing networking society, where everyone at the top shits on those below, and the turd covered morons think they’ve somehow been anointed.
Stay in your sty. The world is better off with known concentrations of morons. Dispersed morons take a couple extra days to flesh out.

It's not that I've never done it. It's more complicated than that. You missed a thread at .net, apparently.
Seven or eight years ago my dad and I slaughtered two sows, wrapped them in banana leaf and burlap, caged them in cattle panel wire and buried them in a lukewarm pit. Pulled them out 12 hours later and the pigs were fizzing. We cut them open and the smell drove everyone out of the building. The luau had to be moved outdoors. In my defense, the guy in charge of building the pit was more of a "Dig hole, burn cardboard and pit liner, stir rocks, and cook" guy than a proper Polynesian chef.

Ah, didn’t read that one apparently. We used a probe that connects via Bluetooth to monitor temp. Was amazing every time. It was an annual thang in our hood.

I've got a question for you Trumpers.
Why does San Francisco have more billionaires per capita than any city in the World? Why not a city in Arizona? Or a city in North Dakota? Or a city in Florida? Hell, or any other city in the World?
Take your time. This should be interesting and funny.
Perhaps you should move back to the kuntry life, where everything is perfect...

Sometimes freedom smells like diapers smoldering in a burn barrel. If that offends your sensibilities, stay the fuck away from the methy woods. I'll take it over Diegoland's Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone smelling like dread locks dipped in used condoms.
