LOL. I was actually referring to an old thread by StacyV and Larson? And their famous “spit on you soul” line. But I am probably misremembering.

Oh man, that brings back memories. I wouldn't have gotten the reference with the cost of fencing alone, but "spit on your soul"... good times.

lol! I'd forgotten about that.

awRight.
For us newbies, give!

Okay, so first, staceyv posted this thread, suspecting that her husband was cheating on her and asking what we thought. Everyone basically confirmed, "yeah, he's a dick," apparently too quickly for her liking, and she got somewhat offended on his behalf.

So she showed him the thread, and he made his own account, and started this thread defending himself. The classic quote comes in post #7 of this second thread, via staceyv posting through her husband's new account about what her husband said about us after he flounced off and refused to post any more... :)

welp. She *did* ask for really bad advice!

I have no idea why I found this thread memorable. But it was this one.

How much does it cost to fence a yard?

I probably remembered it because the idea of asking the cost to fence a yard that you might wind up renting was just so off the wall. And then all the advice to buy a house instead with no money down. Just a couple years before the housing market crash.

I think all this was about when I was a newb. Fun times (in a batshit insane way -the best kind)

That was quality content.

Are there really people this stupid?

the ones that do love stuff on sale!

same goes for "ultrapremium vodka" once it's distilled and filtered enough to be vodka, further filtration doesn't make it more vodka.

I saw a thing one time. They ran cheap vodka through one of those water filtration pitchers, over and over. Each time, they compared the taste to a premium vodka they had on hand. After several runs through the filter, they declared the two tasted the same.

I'm not sure if that was because filtering, or because they got drunk as shit during the taste comparison.

Sounds like fun!

I grabbed some hand sanitizer at a gas station a couple weeks ago, smells like cheap bar tequila.

"alcohol-based"
