Your Worst Purchase Ever

I treated condom purchases like any other item because I knew the feeling of being on the other side of the transaction. Then one day some cougar woman came in and bought ointment, an enima kit, fondu cheese, and a value pack of condoms. I asked "How are you today?" like I always do keeping a straight face, and she replied "Good now, but I'll be better tonight" and winked. From that point on whenever someone bought condoms I had to fight the urge to cringe because it always brings back a mental image of this woman using all of her purchased items at once with her partner.

I think it depends where the bar is located. If its an Edmonton bar probably the truck.. if its a bar where the girls have teeth then the porsche.

See heres the thing.. My truck would wax the porsche in a straight line so I guess it would up to her whether or not she likes gutless vehicles.

I've never heard it called 'alone time', but I think it's hilarious and awesome.

Sometimes women aren't appreciative of the fact that you are faster then everyone else.

[burn_this_city]

Hahah nice.. I dont mind coming dead last in those situations.

Wax it in what way? I have a hard time believing that statement.

Drag racing. I'd smash any non-turbo porsche. Those cars corner well but dont accelerate worth sh*t.

I don't get it......maybe heat the cheese, load it into the enema kit, and give 'er? Use the ointment in case it burns? Or was it lube? In which case it could be a pre-fudge pack enema after a gentle evening of fondue?

I could maybe see the base-Cayenne, but the slowest car Porsche out there (Boxster) goes to 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. I have a hard-time believing such a heavy truck can equal that. But hey, if you can back it up with numbers, I'll believe it!

I was just curious so i looked things up. From this article, it looks like both a gas 2500 and diesel 3500 are in the mid 8's....pretty great for most cars/trucks. But it's not a sports car.

Fyi, the slowest Cayenne is listed at 7.5 to 60mph.

I used to have a Skoda, and I used to always point out to my friends that it had a "Porsche" engine in it. It's didn't go 0-60 in 5.8 seconds though... hell, it barely went 0-60 at all!

[Table 5]

Oh I've been in an old 80's Skoda....it felt like you were going a lot faster then you really were. Believe me, the car let you know!

The new Skoda's are actually pretty nice cars. More or less, re-skinned VW's.

My truck isnt stock..

I'll scan my 1/4 times at work tomorrow..

I'll read this thread later, but my car.

I knew it would depreciate fast, but I bought it because I needed a better car than what I had. However, two years later, I know I bought the wrong car. I don't like it because it's underpowered, and is too small.

And also my condo. I bought last December, when I thought prices had leveled off, and would start to rise again. I paid more for it than what I could have bought it for today.

[Bend it like Bourgeois]

humidifier - i convinced myself I needed one over my wife's protests and if it is on at all it fogs the windows. So it's never on.

every nice piece of jewellery - it all sits in drawers because it's expensive and my wife is too afraid to wear it.
