There is a better way

I dislike you, and all my neighbors who want bumps in the road because we live near a high school.  I've found throwing rocks at the cars that are going too fast to be very effective in getting them to leave the area.

That's not "on a budget", mate. This is "on a budget":

Well, choad, you've reached an age where shouting "Get off my lawn!" is entirely acceptable. In fact, it's one of the few perks. I'm sure it's okay to make minor adjustments which would encompass the surrounding roads.

Shall I see how long it would take Amazon to get a box of roofing nails to you?

Nah, town this size there are more satisfying remedies.

And I've got the oldest nail factory in the nation a couple miles away.

Diplomacy is usually the art of saying nice doggy until you find a suitable rock.

I'm banking the abutting neighbors torch the place. Updates as events warrant.

I have Prime. Free 2 day shipping. Wanna split the cost and get them on the way to him?

Get (and use) their Chase credit card and you now get 5% cash back on Amazon purchases.

sweet.

I buy everything I can in order to limit my time in stores(in order to avoid people).

Just did it. They gave me a $70.00 gift card as well. Thanks for the info, I never noticed that before.

Nah, it's more of a lesson to my youngsters by example.  Have watched too many young adults fuck themselves with credit card/car loan 40-grit condoms.

In this family we only leverage credit for viable reasons, I never find taking a hair cut on my investments or purchases to be a viable reason.  We aren't completely liquid but on the other hand we are only beholden to the home improvement revolver and the Taxman.  And the revolver can be resolved via T-plus if necessary.

I bought some dog food.

I didn't realize they sold live cat, rabbits and squirrels on Amazon Prime.

Dude if I'm going to go all Fnord-like it ain't gonna be for Nicholas Cage, you gots to be talking Warren Buffett money before I'll even begin to consider it.  (Yes and control of the suite at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln has to be part of the deal).

That gay thing just ain't for me, didn't even have to try it to figure that much out.

Thanks for fucking up my "Related to items you've viewed" home page on Amazon.  Nicolas Cage and chicken suggestions... :/

Yep, we've finally resulted to "ad bombing" each other for our pranking fun.

I wish I still lived on the farm. I would buy a dozen quail eggs every couple of months just to release them after hatching. I miss seeing them running around on the farm. The downside of stopping DDT is that there are a lot more predator birds and nearly no prey birds any more.
