College kids will fall for amazingly stupid things sometimes. Who was it who had a roommate trying to convince him to invest his 401K in some get-rich-quick scheme that was bound to succeed because "Only losers fail, and I'm not a loser, so I can't fail"? Was that Dub? That's the typical sort of mind game that gets played on college kids. Of course, one must also add the "Why would you check it out with your parents, are you an adult or what?" routine.” 2:58:10 PM 10/12/04 “lol, no bit, Dub was trying to talk his roomie OUT of such a scheme that some other guy was pitching.” 3:27:34 PM 10/12/04 “the "implied license" is a good one though ain't it! :)” 3:28:00 PM 10/12/04 “OK, I knew Dub was involved somehow. Yes, the "implied license" idea is a great one!” 3:31:08 PM 10/12/04 “lol, i tried somethin like the "implied license" when i first heard about it - not quite that phrasing, but they just kinda looked at me like "haha, you're funny" I could easily see the dorm burning down scenario - I thought the house when I was on fire last night when I walked by my neighbor's apartment and you could see the flames dancing on the walls - they had about 4 of the damn things going on a cookie sheet in the middle of the kitchen floor.” 4:16:25 PM 10/12/04 “lol...you should probably destroy all your alcohol stoves and disavow any knowledge of how to make one. Now.” 4:19:13 PM 10/12/04 “what am i gonna do for my demonstration this weekend?” 4:22:41 PM 10/12/04 “Well, since one of your fellow students will likely burn down either your apartment building or the building that your demonstration was going to be held at, I'd say that's the least of your worries.” 4:24:54 PM 10/12/04 “i told you, the demonstration is given this weekend during a backpacking trip 100 miles from here...” 4:26:08 PM 10/12/04 “Oh missed that. Well, take along a can and make one on the way...” 4:27:50 PM 10/12/04 “what?? for my demonstration, i will bring a can with me and build one at the campsite one night - everybody has to do something, some people are teaching how to pack a pack, or how to build a fire, etc.” 4:29:26 PM 10/12/04 “Bring along disclaimers stating that you're not responsible for any accident, property damage, or injury resulting from improper use of the alcohol stoves you're going to teach them how to make. Make them sign the disclaimers, or gouge their eyes out in front of the group.” 4:35:01 PM 10/12/04 “hmm, whatever” 4:41:44 PM 10/12/04 “OK, I knew Dub was involved somehow. bloodpusher Hey now! What are you saying? Yes, this guy convinced him he needed to save $50K to open a touchless carwash where he would make $1-2 million a year. He told him his 401(k) would be useless and not to worry about it even though the company gave him 5% matching $1 for $1. So I talked him into doing his 401(k) in addition to his carwash scheme. He was supposed to save 30% of his pay for 5 years to get the money for the carwash and after 5 months of saving for the carwash guess where he's at... $100. At least he has that "stupid" 401(k) to fall back on.” 5:00:45 PM 10/12/04 “lol if the house catches on fire, just walk away quietly, and whistle nonchalantly.” 5:01:43 PM 10/12/04 “'Cause I remembered you posting about it, but I couldn't remember the details... Dub, you should get a medal for convincing that guy to not cash in his 401K. Too bad you can't get a percentage, lol...” 5:03:21 PM 10/12/04 “if the house catches on fire, i'm first grabbing, at least my backpacking gear before i walk away whistling...” 5:06:10 PM 10/12/04 “on an entirely different note... girls worry too much.” 5:08:17 PM 10/12/04 “on a seperate note... i'm bored” 5:10:32 PM 10/12/04 “Well, our firm has a client that runs a couple of car washes, the drive thru spray kind, and they seem to cash flow fairly well. I have no idea what they invested off the top of my head though. With 50k of his own cash, he could prolly borrow the rest, BUT getting that 50k isn't too easy, unless your in the lucky sperm club.” 5:18:12 PM 10/12/04 “he could go into the alcohol stove selling business... wait... check that, i'm gonna go build some stoves.” 5:23:41 PM 10/12/04 “you guys are boring” 6:24:19 PM 10/12/04 “but not as boring as you” 6:24:46 PM 10/12/04 “yeah, but I have a secret” 8:10:18 PM 10/12/04 “tell me, pahleeazee” 8:14:50 PM 10/12/04 “No you don't!” 8:18:36 PM 10/12/04 “no” 8:25:03 PM 10/12/04 “I'll tell next week sometime maybe” 8:40:21 PM 10/12/04 “somebody come drink a beer with me” 8:47:06 PM 10/12/04 “tell us ur secret!” 9:12:49 PM 10/12/04 “NO I can't jinx it, not yet I gotta wait to see what happens first, but it'll be BIG if it works out.” 9:28:37 PM 10/12/04 “dude. come on.” 9:29:40 PM 10/12/04 “are u moving to pa?” 9:29:48 PM 10/12/04 “I'll be moving to PA soon.” 9:31:17 PM 10/12/04 “i'll be moving to buddur's old place.” 9:32:02 PM 10/12/04 “you know... in PA” 9:32:46 PM 10/12/04 “nope, not gonna breath a word until after I have it confirmed BUT if the THING happens then I'll be one celebratin dude” 9:33:59 PM 10/12/04 “here we go with the twinkle toes thing again. "the thing" blah blah blah.” 9:35:36 PM 10/12/04 “I assure you, Twinkle Toes has nothing to do with my thing” 9:38:09 PM 10/12/04 “Yo yo.” 11:26:07 PM 10/12/04 “roam is roaming again. or are you getting married?” 11:41:54 PM 10/12/04 “Wow...just took me 20 minutes to look through 300 emails in my inbox that have been gathering for 5 months.” 12:13:01 AM 10/13/04 “dub...thats a crime!!! :D did you get the 50 I sent you ?” 12:14:04 AM 10/13/04 “Yes, I'm not interested in buying a pen1s enlarger or viagara from you...don't need it but thanks for all the emails!” 12:20:47 AM 10/13/04 “two words Dub: spam filter” 5:47:44 AM 10/13/04 “mmm i made pumpkin pie cheesecake last night” 6:08:32 AM 10/13/04 “ewwww j/k” 6:14:52 AM 10/13/04 “now you're talkin nonsense. it's damn good, my friend.” 6:17:22 AM 10/13/04 “only pumpkin cheese cake i ever tried was at Atlanta Bread Co. - it was a little dried out, but I'm sure that yours is excellent!” 7:01:58 AM 10/13/04 Jump to Page << prev
