My house in Virginia came with them. People who bought the house put them back , cut down all the trees in the front yard to make a parking lot and put up 2' high fake plastic picket fencing that encloses no areamy house has these and vinyl siding. it came that way, and I'm gonna ride it out until it's time to replace the siding.
Gotta fill it up with tchotchkes. The, "I paid a lot of money for this, it is your inheritance" collection of beanie babies, or Hummel statues, or some other collectible that nobody wants and isn't worth the effort to try and sell, except to another boomer so they can add it to their collection.I'm still trying to figure out why boomers would buy a giant goddam house... WTF is wrong with people?

My uncle owns a storage unit facility and recently commented about how much money he makes off people that mindlessly hold onto extraneous shit that they don't need but can't bring themselves to throw away.Fuckin' morans.
They key is to just not buy shit you don't need or will never use. However my basement is full of worn out old bikes. At least I wore them the fuck out.My uncle owns a storage unit facility and recently commented about how much money he makes off people that mindlessly hold onto extraneous shit that they don't need but can't bring themselves to throw away.
Basque Country. Spanish or French side, doesn't matter...Does it have to be the US?
My grandma had a metric shit ton of those God damned Franklin Mint "collectable" plates and I wound up with boxes full of them when she died. Kept them in the crawl space for probably 20 years. When we moved I started looking around on the Internet to see if they were worth anything to anyone. They absolutely were not. Every single one of them went in the dumpster and that was the exact sum total of the inheritance any of us got from her.Gotta fill it up with tchotchkes.

Recycle that shit! I pulled all the components off my wife's old hardtail and tossed the alu frame in the recycling bin.They key is to just not buy shit you don't need or will never use. However my basement is full of worn out old bikes. At least I wore them the fuck out.
That's the gift that keeps on giving.<snip>
Well that, and generational trauma.
Isn’t that pretty much hot and dry as well?Basque Country. Spanish or French side, doesn't matter...
Really? Maybe it's perspective as compared to CO? I moved to the Bay Area from New England and never feel humidity, particularly at the coast. I actually miss the occasional hot humid summer night. Looks like you're right about further North though.Well FTS. Every time we go to the Bay Area it feels like I'm going to die from the humidity. Anything in Northern CA and progressing north from there will be more humid - it's the beginning of the temperate rain forest that is the redwoods which drifts all the way up to Alaska.
I think the intensity of the sun here could be playing a part too. Somehow more testing is required outside of CO...
last year my mom gave me a box of drawings i had made dating as far back as preschool. what the actual fuck.lol this thread delivers.
my parents crawl space has every piece of luggage they have owned. Hard sided shit from the 70s, shitty nylon from the 90s, and the modern lightweight stuff too. It’s like 14 suitcases and carry ons. WTF
I received my first communion candle and a certificate of graduation from preschool. CASHMONEYYALL. I put it next to all the. Mcdonalds toys they saved for me.last year my mom gave me a box of drawings i had made dating as far back as preschool. what the actual fuck.

Charlottesville/Harrisburg/Roanoke in VA
also, sorry to hear it man.
They have a Wegmans there. Carbondale is cooler and has better riding.SC is definitely a college town. fall weekends when there's a home football game are an absolute shit show. clears out a lot in the summer at least.
it is very much a speck of civilization smack dab in the middle of deep pennsyltucky.
Were they any good?last year my mom gave me a box of drawings i had made dating as far back as preschool. what the actual fuck.
Come on, show us your wasted potential as an artist.last year my mom gave me a box of drawings i had made dating as far back as preschool. what the actual fuck.

Bend <> humidity increase above front range CO.Spent the day in Bend, OR a couple weeks ago. Cant say I didnt enjoy it...daughter is in uni in Corvallis, that seems nice too. The Frau and I cant rule it out for the future...
Come to Vermont. Don't tell anyone.Bend <> humidity increase above front range CO.
And my wife likely has PTSD about ever going there again as the bout of COVID I caught there in 2022 almost killed me and possibly contributed to her health issue after she contracted it from me.
I have enjoyed Sun River quite a bit.Spent the day in Bend, OR a couple weeks ago. Cant say I didnt enjoy it...daughter is in uni in Corvallis, that seems nice too. The Frau and I cant rule it out for the future...
