Where's the Florida tag????

Grand_Moff_Joseph		2003-07-11 07:32:24 AM

Yes, because that will scare off the repo man for good...

stark		2003-07-11 07:32:58 AM

Well he didn't really shoot his OWN truck to avoid having it towed did he? One random bullet happened to strike his vehicle.

/pedantic mode off

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 07:34:08 AM

Oh so he wasn't really aiming at his truck...

Scary if you ask me.

mutt		2003-07-11 07:34:29 AM

1) stupid story
2) Florida tag?

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 07:34:47 AM

Oh stark u bet me to it. U suck donkeyballs dude.

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 07:37:40 AM

Hey out of curiosity and seeing Fark only has one US state as its tag, surely there must be other states that deserve the distinction of a Fark tag. US farkers what might some candidates be? I heard from some americans I met that Wisconsin ain't to bright of a state either...

BiggerThanJeebus		2003-07-11 07:41:43 AM

Police are still looking for the gunman.

I hope they can figure out where his house is. He might be there.

LaughingGremlin		2003-07-11 07:42:30 AM

Don't feel the repo....

PS..repossession/man? Yeah...me clever 2 day
/wipes drool

LaughingGremlin		2003-07-11 07:45:16 AM

don't FEAR the repo...

d'oh

Gryn		2003-07-11 07:48:10 AM

I wouldn't want to "feel" the repo, either. Though, I believe it's don't fear the "reaper."

Yeah, it sounds like "repo" to me, too.

ZoSo_the_Crowe		2003-07-11 07:48:36 AM

I'd love a California tag for articles dealing with the "Save the dolphins! Tuna? Screw them, they taste good!" types out here.

Some people just need to eat more dead cow.

cuzman		2003-07-11 07:49:22 AM

I once had my car towed... If I would have thought like that guy it would've saved me $230

Gryn		2003-07-11 07:50:58 AM

I'm sad that any creature has to kill something else to survive.. including some plants. Though.. wait, aren't there some plants that don't actually kill to survive? They just live off of dead things, and sunlight.

Speaking of which, the sun is rising here, time for me to go to bed now.

stymie		2003-07-11 07:54:48 AM

I'll see you in HELL Tacoma!

sundog_rocks		2003-07-11 07:59:35 AM

They forgot to mention the part that it was being repo'd because he hadn't made a payment in 4 months...

Hmmmm, those banks are so damn pesky when you agree to pay them back and you don't...

LaughingGremlin		2003-07-11 08:00:09 AM

01SSJay		2003-07-11 08:00:23 AM

They said the owner then exited his house with a pistol in hand and fired several shots at the tow truck.

Police are still looking for the gunman.

I sure hope they know where his house is.

BanjoMan		2003-07-11 08:08:18 AM

what a dumbass...I am sure the repo man was laughing as he was grabbing for his gun...those repo men are a different breed...got a buddy that does it and he is in a world all his own

What the h-e double hockey sticks is going on? It's after 8 and there are no naked man stories yet?

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:11:33 AM

Good point. I want my nudity! and where are all the stories today? I feel like a flamewar. How bout some news on Bush and WMD and how they lied blah blah blah...

LaughingGremlin		2003-07-11 08:17:06 AM

IForgotMyPassword

News Just in: Bush and Blair lied about WMD, they meant, actually, W(here's)M(y)D(ick)?

* good enough for you guys?

FriendGirl		2003-07-11 08:17:22 AM

Why does so many wierd stories originate in Florida? Is there something in the water there?

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:20:13 AM

I say, what will happen to Bush when they find out he lied? It is obvious this war was only about oil. I mean, it has destabilised the whole region and thousands of innocent people died. What about all those other poor people dying under other less economically important, dictatorial regimes!

/Will they bite??

Mr_Vimes		2003-07-11 08:25:57 AM

LaughingGremlin, it think there will be a film, starring[sic] Ashton Kutcher, called "Dude, where's my weapons of mass destruction?"

Mr_Vimes		2003-07-11 08:29:32 AM

FriendGirl, Why does so many wierd stories originate in Florida? Is there something in the water there?

Yes, sharks, cottonmouths and alligators and they are obviously not doing the job evolution has prepared them for and cleaning out the gene pool.

Why do you hate America so much?

/yes, this will do nicely

flambore		2003-07-11 08:32:35 AM

Completely unrelated, but I know you were all thinking the same thing...

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:34:01 AM

Because all americans are loud and easy! You pollute the world with your culture, your big multinational corporations are screwing poor workers in the developed world and you are making a mockery of the UN! This is all fact I am not stereotyping at all!

/How's that BiggerThanJeebus?

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:37:32 AM

flambore I wasn't thinking that. What are you thinking? Seriously, I don't get it...

/Actually I was thinking about sex. (obvious)

nothingyet		2003-07-11 08:40:22 AM

The FLORIDA tags trumps the DUMBASS tag here. Poster is dumbass for not using the FLA tag.

BiggerThanJeebus		2003-07-11 08:40:42 AM

UN??? UN??? Without the US, there wouldn't be any UN. Is it America's fault that old Europe wants to keep it's head in the sand? Which, by the way, they did for the oil.
Everybody is "polluted" with our culture because they all want to be like us.

/faster, faster...need more gas

Cute blonde girls make the world go round.

OH YEAH! Well...well if it weren't for Europe there wouldn't BE a US! Ha! Take THAT you ignorant american swine! I light my fart in your general direction without burning the hairs on my bottom!

Feh. Not even his truck - 's the bank's.

Seeing it is World Fark Abstinence day today lets just have a random discussion. So.... how bout the local sports team then, I hear they are pretty good...

/Desperate

Mr_Vimes		2003-07-11 08:46:57 AM

IForgotMyPassword, BiggerThanJeebus, you're both threadjacking this away from the topic of cute blonde girls. Cut it out.

/concerned.

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:47:47 AM

PortWineBoy what were you thinking? I don't see anything...

IForgotMyPassword		2003-07-11 08:49:59 AM

Good point Mr_Vines, unfortunately my experience with cute blond girls would make for a very non-existing discussion.

BanjoMan,

It's illegal in the state of Florida for repo men to carry firearms [There was a whole thing on the radio about this when it happened and a few repo guys called in.. [yes, it's lame, I know]]

/eye for an eye

Mr_Vimes		2003-07-11 09:01:30 AM

LaughingGremlinI prefer blond guys myself.. preferably a lot taller than me...........

I'm blonde and 2:05. Does this qualify me?

Mr_Vimes		2003-07-11 09:03:17 AM

IForgotMyPassword Good point Mr_Vines, unfortunately my experience with cute blond girls would make for a very non-existing discussion.

I guess for the purposes of discussion, the words cute and blonde can be considered optional.
