Damn them all.

[LordMaul]

OK, so it's like this.

My mother was one of those die-hard Y2K survivalists. You know, spending literally THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of dollars on buckets of fscking GRAIN, OATS, and flour grinders, dried this and that, around 8-55 gallon drums for filling up with water and gas/oil, 5,000+ electricity generator wired throughout the house, etc. Now, of course, she has wind of some kind of chemical attacks on the US, particularly around Chicago. So, she now must stock up on GAS MASKS, fill holes in the walls, cover up vents, clean out the house and such, fill up the ol' barrels again and hide them in the basement...

WTF is wrong with her? When I told her how she doesn't need to do this for Y2K, her repsonse? Something to the effect of "It's not your money, so why should you care?"

Arrrrgh....yes, there is a possibility. But if there is radioactive material spread all over our houses, water and gas masks isn't going to keep us all alive.

A fool and her money are soon parted.

If money is the limiting factor, she'll eventually realize the error in her ways.

If money isn't the limiting factor, then you don't need to worry about it. If spending money to feel safe makes her happy, so be it. It's better than a gambling problem.

 

[Mrfrog840]

gas masks wont do a damn unless you know EXACTLY how to use em. Like be taught from someone from the miltary

 

[LordMaul]

You'll be pretty damn sad when I'm fine and everyone else is starving and dying, she says....



BAH!

 

[Aceman]

Run! Run far away!











































NOW!

 

[StageLeft]

You have to take them off to eat and drink anyway - so unless you're able to get out of the area to take it off you're screwed - and a terrorist will not chem-bio attack a residential area when there are malls and business around.

 

[ThisIsMatt]

For fun, tell her they also have nukes

 

[notfred]

<< You'll be pretty damn sad when I'm fine and everyone else is starving and dying, she says....



BAH! >>



Does she have any guns? if not, when everyone else is starving and dying, and she's got her generator and 3000gallons of water, someone's gonig to shoot her in the face, and then they'll have her stuff


Is she aware of this? now she can go sped more money on guns

 

[Pr0Hawk]

LOL, would she be intrested in buying my 100% nuke proof bomb shelter.

<< Run! Run far away!











































NOW! >>





























RIGHT NOW!
danny~!

 

[Maetryx]

Suvival gear and hardware tends to hold it's value better than other purchases. You know: guns, tools, generators, etc. So think of it as an investment.

hahahahahaha....if you only knew....

Guns are not a issue in the homes of my family.

 

[jjones]

hmm....how should i explain this?




your mother's a nutcase.


seriously though, i'm glad you're not buying into it.

 

[Adul]

just be glad you didnt inherit those genes. on the other hand you could start a tour through the house and charge money for it

 

[killmeplease]

Sorry, but your mother is obviously insane.

This may be a rare look at yourself as you grow older. With age, you too could be hoarding toilet paper.

Good luck, toilet paper boy. LOL

 

[LordMaul]

<< just be glad you didnt inherit those genes. on the other hand you could start a tour through the house and charge money for it >>




I don't think there would be room.


Oh, and I just can't wait until she finds something new from an ad screaming, "Sleep like a baby through the worlds worst times in your solid steel cryo-chamber!"

bah!

 

[Martin]

look at it from this perspective: She's spending a wack of cash, which is always a good thing in times like these


She's not a nutcase, she's a patriotic american doing her duty!!!

No you don't. Don't make "factual" statements unless you know what you're talking about.

 

[Cyberian]

All right, then. I'll ask.
How does one eat/drink with a gas mask on?

The new McGas Mask happy meal. "For the kids who refuse to be called a victim".

 

[SilverThief]

My mother's church brainwashed her into this "doomsday" garbage a couple of years ago. She started buying stuff in bulk.......
2 years later, the world is still here, and she is now the proud owner of 10,000 rolls of toilet paper!
hahaha!

Let me guess..............Jahova's Witness? (sp)

They've been saying the world is gonna end about every other damn year.

 

[CocaCola5]

Tell her to become a flight attendent, when a nuke goes off, she'll be nice and comfortable in the air.

 

[snow patrol]

no offense, but it sounds like your mother may need 'proffesional help'.

It seems like she is a little to paranoid.......
