I didn't find that out until I mentioned to my dad that I volunteered at one of their events* where my job was to pick up trash. If I had known a) what they told my aunt and b) that I would be fighting cancer by picking up trash, I'd never have gone. I'll make sure that if I ever get breast cancer, I'm not cancery enough for them either. * I also have a GOML brewing about "racing for a cause" You said it.

I feel bad for gen y as they really did get messed up by their parents, but then again we all did in one way or another. Good luck to you all, may a large rock land on us and shorten the demise.

]]> Comment on Giant Pickup Truck Owners by Charles http://www.getoffmylawn.org/2011/01/giant-pickup-truck-owners/#comment-3172 Charles Thu, 05 Jan 2012 21:19:10 +0000 http://www.getoffmylawn.org/?p=99#comment-3172 Love it. I Drive a 2008 International CXT. One of the largest 4x4 pick-ups in the world. When I bought it I used it to haul sports cars too and from weekend racing events. It served its purpose well. Now I drive it every day and am trying to wear it out. It has close to 600,000 miles on it and has never given me a bit of trouble. The fuel mileage is about 6 mpg on the highway and less than that in town. The emmissions have been upgraded to 2010 specs which means that the air that comes out of the exhaust is cleaner than the air that goes in the intake. It now puts out less hydrocarbons that any gas powered car on the road. I just figure the quicker I use it (fuel) the quicker the oil companies will find a new source of alternitive energy to over charge us for. People love to stop and ask about it. It does take up several spaces at the shopping center but I do not try to be the guy that has to park next to the door. Unfortunatly it has crushed a car or two in its time. No humans were injured or killed but the moron in the the honda civic who cut in front of me way to close was lucky the truck crushed the empty passanger side. The officer that saw the whole thing told him that after that "exibition of stupidity" I should have backed up and ended the DNA chain. My wife hates it my kids want it when I die. To all the haters, we live in a free society and you do not have the right to anything other than your opinion. Right or wrong if some one is willing to spend the money it will sell. Actually for $120,000 mine is for sale. Love it.

]]> Comment on Perfume Ho by Scent Free Girl http://www.getoffmylawn.org/2011/02/perfume-ho/#comment-3055 Scent Free Girl Wed, 28 Dec 2011 02:09:10 +0000 http://www.getoffmylawn.org/2011/02/perfume-ho/#comment-3055 I was in a restaurant with my husband not long ago when a man was there who was so drenched in cologne that the whole room filled up with his stench. Several other customers complained about it. One waitress said a costumer asked her if they had put an air freshener in the room. Eventually someone turned on the ceiling fans. Why in the world would anyone think they should wear so much cologne (or perfume... let's not forget the women) that it fills an entire restaurant! If I lit a cigarette (if I smoked) in a public area like that and refused to put it out, I would be asked to leave. But no one would ever ask the overly fragranced person to get up and go.

They drove for 5 miles with the right turn signal on then merged into the left lane, then the dumb ass turned on the left signal AFTER they had made the lane change, then continued to drive another 5 miles with it flashing. And they wonder why they cause accidents. Fucktard! I was behind an ID10T just like this all the way to work on the free way today!

The little suckers are buying it, they internalize it as "good" and normal. Either they accept the idea of trophies for everyone, or they must oppose and mock it. The younger generation are turning out mostly socialist. Government schools are hollowing out the work ethic, free enterprise, and freedom itself.
