That cabinet itself is not really the funny part (other than the price) but the funny part is the wallpaper in this guys trailer.

The wallpaper probably looks a lot better once he has his Jack Daniel's.

I like the New England Patriots tampon dispenser.

Is that a bunch of stuff piled right in front of the fireplace that looks like it may have an actual fire in it?

Hoping it's one of those electric faux fireplace units....though if it all went up in flames, there's no loss

The electric fireplaces still have a 1500 watt heater in them and all that crap is still a fire hazard...assuming the heater is on.

There are fake ones that don't have a heater... dumb, I know, but I've seen them.

As long as they remember not to try to light their crack pipe while cooking meth, it's usually OK.
When that happens the pile usually migrates to the middle of the street, along with a sizable portion of the trailer.

OMG!! That made me chuckle.

seems awefully proud of his Jack Daniels drinking to place them so prominently on the fireplace mantle...

vorghagen · « **Reply #11 on:** March 18, 2008, 09:20:51 pm »

Also note the row of (at least) 4 empty Jack Daniels bottles lined up above the fireplace..... they actually look like the 1.75L bottles too. A little bit too chunky for the standard 700ml.

edit: beaten to it metahipster. damn badly timed phonecall.

Actually, I beat you both by mentioning Jack first

That wallpaper rocks. It's the best of both worlds you can be inside and cozy and warm and still feel like you are outside. I would love to play video games in the great outdoors. The Jack Daniels just completes the illusion.

In the second pic what is that on the wall. It looks like a picture of a ---well you tell me

Heh, a few of my friends get together a couple times a year at a cabin, and by the time the weekend is over, the mantle over the fireplace is usually lined up with various bottles of adult beverages

ummm...no....it's not that kind of get together

Actually, we're volunteering at a historical society we all belong to, working on their archives, and the cabin is a very big lodge type cabin, and cheaper than staying in a motel since we all chip in. Just wanted to clarify that

what would you need a fireplace in florida for?

Lutus · « **Reply #23 on:** March 21, 2008, 08:40:38 am »

It gets cold enough for a fire here in florida about 2 days out of the year.
