You offer a warranty on strawberries? Sign me up. I’ll pass on the toilet paper warranty, though.
I may be an ignorant ass, but I just pretend they aren’t there and hey haven’t interrupted me. Works for me, and I don’t get all upset.
You’re correct, and I apologize. I didn’t click your link. No offense to Shakes, but I assumed that link was to a previous pit of him. My bad.
On Saturday I asked ma why she didn’t purchase an extended warranty for the $.99 bag of hose washers. The clerk didn’t ask her, but I had to before she paid.
Hitler’s sitting at his desk getting reports from his advisors.

Just for anyone else reading the thread who might be misled by pkbites’ whining, he got shit on in that thread for calling people retards and bitches.

Poor you: when you act like an asshole in the pit, you get called an asshole in the pit. seriously, what do you expect to happen? there elm with your unloading is that you show yourself to be an asshole in the process.
