Camper shells are awesome until you try and load your first game.

If I want to load a game I just take it off. (why does that sound dirty?

)

Take some advice from the older guys... you can get a cab at any age. You're only going to have access to 18 year old girls for a short time!

As my parents said to me about a year ago: You can't take your girlfriend out to the movies in a pinball machine.

I believe this applies to you as well. Whether or not a girlfriend is/would be in the mix for us arcade folks in high school is another topic entirely...

is it just me or is mauzy showing twice?

to do... things... in.

Immitate scenes by Dirk Diggler perhaps?
Get neither. Just buy a ticket to Europe and become a pothead and have fun with stinking French and Germans in Amsterdam. Much better for your mojo.

HAHAHA, you guys are too great.

yeah, i have already settled on the idea of a car.

A girlfriend is something i'm also working on. I'm pretty nerdy, so the idea of a girlfriend only recently occurred to me, maybe the freedom of driving hoax that into the open.

but before all of this -girlfriend, i need a job. Balls these next moths are going to be busy.

translation needed?

before i get a car or a cab. i need a job, but i can have a girlfriend without a job.

He can have all he wants. The sagest advice that I ignored as a youngster was, "the hormones don't begin to settle down until they're 25".

Gravity is a cold ---smurfette--- and doesn't care about hormones.

You can get girlfriends without a job. I had them. You pretty much have to spend that time you didn't spend earning at the gym instead, though.

complicated, isn't it?

but i think youve pretty much settled on th right order there. job first, car will follow. girl will not necessarily follow

cab can be any time after the first two...

If your girlfriend was blown out by 25, there's only two people to blame:

1 - You
2 - Colonel Sanders

There is a long way between 25 and blown out... and an even longer way between 18 and 25. Men and women both.

No girl will go out with you in a clonker.

Get a Chevy V8 1500 Silverado.

Now that's not true at all. Many girls will go out with him on Paige's scooter if he can piss daddy off enough.

I dunno ... Paige is Paige and he's got the special mojo going on -- AstroTurf CPO's with no angled joysticks, more vehicles than I have owned recently, the MAMEd motorhome and, the piece de resistance -- that beautiful picture of Cheedsus above his couch.

the MAMEd motorhome

Damn! Someone beat me to it! I was gonna replace the fridge in our camper with an in-wall MAME setup with fold out CP...

I wonder if his scooter had a paperboy CP on it and that's why he crashed.

think van instead of truck.
I have both.

Well, cheaper all-round, unless you get a ricer or something hot, and those are often what chicks like. Unless you get a hog...but them's a different kind a girl. Just forget the chicks. Get a vehicle so's you can do things that are fun an all. Look up the surplus/seizure auctions. Hell, even privately-owned used cars might be going hella cheap - like that Integra so and so here got the other day.

dunno about in the US, but here the kinda girls that like you for your ricer are kinda, well, retarded...

most women really dont care about your car, although i must admit a lot of em like my car. probably precisely because it isnt compensating for anything...

that isuzu truck or whatever, that looks like a pretty good sort of thing to be aiming for. 4 cyl means you wont blow all your money on fuel, you can move stuff around, you can still pimp it out a little if you want (if you want to waste some cash). only drwaback of trucks is you cant have the sort of fun a carload of friends gets you...

He's 16! That's what he wants. He's not looking to find a wife, you know.

If it helps, though, should one of my sons come home with a motorcycle as a teenager, I'll cripple him myself and blow the motorcycle straight to hell. Ain't happening. HELL NO.
