Hilarious ebay arcade listing HINT: CAMO

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.

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.

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.

Never argue with an idiot, he'll just drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

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.

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 :)

I believe it is an empty cd rack covered in dust.

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 :)
