Oh man, Freecycle has saved me hundreds of dollars in dump fees. I have gotten rid of rotted fencing, big piles of rocks, old stained carpeting, and more general construction debris than you could possibly imagine. The best part is when these people (women, 99% of the time) would tell me what they were going to build with my hazardous materials--doghouses, bookcases, a new "patio" in the back... it's sad, because I really think with some of them it borders on a mental illness, this inability to pass up a "bargain." But not sad enough to make me refuse to give it to them.

Time for an anally-themed intermission joke.

CF goes to her doc complaining of anal charley horse as a result of her new anti-depression regimen. He prescribes her 21 suppositories and (you can stop here if you know this joke) and tells her to one 3x per day for a week.

She gets home and shows Mr. CF the pills. "Jeez, CF, those are massive. Maybe if you break them up they'll be easier to swallow."
"Good Idea! I'll try it."
So a week later she is back at her doc's and he asks her if she took all the medication.
"Doc, I did, but for all the good it did me I might as well have stuck them up my ass."

We now return you to our regularly scheduled speculation and thread drift.

you'll notice she has not deigned to solve the mystery

It's like those people who tell everyone they know they're officially going to quit smoking... and then three weeks later they're back outside the building on their breaks. I appreciate generic support, but there's sadly a very real chance I'll lose my motivation again, and I don't want to be "that guy," you know? It's like fishing for compliments, but with moral support instead.

Perhaps.

But, jeeze... you're more than halfway there. Um. what?... one step at a time? one case at a time? 37,713 bottles of beer on the wall, 37,713 bottles of beeeeeer! Well. What can I do.

Here are eight and a half million for you.

Whatever it is Clod, you can do it! Go, Clodfobble!

How was that?

Sorry Clod, I didnt mean to bring it out in the open :o I thought it was something that I missed.

You can do it!! [/rob schneider]

Dollars they still owe on the mortgage?

For their car? Number of roaches left to squash?

C'mon, tell us!

You'll never do it you slacker, moral support troller.
I can see the number getting higher already.

No no, it's totally fine, I did start randomly putting vague things on the board after all. :)

college loan?
maybe its just
that ive been looking
at schools for a week now
and thats all i have on my mind
(and i must confess i don't know your age)
but for a state school, mayhaps, 80000 in debt
may sound almost right, and now, slowly, you try
to rid yourself of it all, and have already reached halfway?


nah.

Dude, if I could come up with $37,000 in six months, I wouldn't be eating mac'n'cheese for dinner all the damn time.

Don't give it up, Clod... make 'em wait. :thumb:

Is that what you tell all the women?

But who would count eternity in days?
(These old bones live to learn her wanton ways.)
