Entirely because of the Dope, I......

… bought a Roomba Robot vacuum cleaner.

After reading this thread about household gadgets, my next stop was to Google “Roomba”, having never heard of one.

And now one is merrily trucking around my new hardwood flooring picking up the stray cat litter and cat hair, while I’m surfing on a Sunday afternoon. Much coolness. (And much hilarity when the cats first met it.)

What life changing (or not so life changing) purchases, journeys, or other lifestyle choices have you made entirely because of the wisdom of the Dope?

Hijack: Since you have cats, you may enjoy a hilarious Roomba vs. cats story, Viva la Roombalucion!

I’ll have to think on the topic, in the meanwhile.

That was absolutely hilarious, thank you for sharing!

I’m one of the many who put my wedding ring in my nose. Among other things.

…am married with children and living in FL.

Well, I don’t know if “entirely” is true, but I did meet my husband here.

I am learning to say “no”. No, I can’t do that today, no, I can’t drive you somewhere in a snowstorm, no, you cannot foist that (___) on me this week. Being a lifelong doormat, it gets a bit easier when you get older and you just don’t need to suck up to people.

…discovered and liberated the angry retard within.

Now he won’t fucking go away. :mad:

watched the Princess Bride for the first time

I know, not nearly as life changing as the others (even the Roomba), but I’m glad I did.

Because of The Dope (some) of my faith in the hope for a rational population has been restored. There’re human cesspools in this machine. True.

Becaused of the DOPE I’ve been reading about Chicago.

Because of The Dope I’m missing a nice, sunshiney Sunday afternoon and am going to log off.

Later. . .

… read the dope at work.

(If it wasn’t for the dope, I wouldn’t do that)
