Favorite white trash delight!

I was probably about 9 years old when this story takes place. The events took place somewhere in the woods of middle Maine. I was visiting two friends of mine at their house. The afternoon started off like any normal Maine afternoon, a nice 4 wheel ride through the mud and grass and everything else. This went on until my buddy did a barrel roll off of the thing and got bruised up. This made us turn to our next event of the day......................... Smashing old cars with metal poles and other miscellaneous objects. Now when I say cars they were literally at least 30 different cars throughout these woods. And our job as kids was to smash all the glass we could find and dent in as mannnnnnny doors as possible. This went on for at least an hour and a half. Never can a child feel as much joy as when he smashes two headlights at once and watches and glass shatters throughout the woods. Once we were done with this it was time for dinner. I believe we had grilled cheese and blue drink served in old mayonnaise jars. The reason I cant remember what I ate was because of the next event that took place. My friends older brother who was probably 14 at the time took three shop N Save brand hot dogs and put them in a bowl and melted two pieces of American cheese on top. This was his dinner, or so he thought it was. The second his parents caught whiff of this meaty delight he was yelled at like he had just stole the meal. They said "That there meal is to expensive for you just to eat". And carried on about how selfish he was for eating those 3 hot dogs and 2 pieces of cheese. They made him offer some of his treat to me and his brother. I kindly declined and stuck with my blue drink and grilled cheese. I guess the thing that always has got me is as much as I like hot dogs and cheese is the fact that 3 of those hot dogs and cheese probably cost about maximum 2 dollars total. I guess they were looking for him to eat along the lines of a 30 cent meal instead. O well to each his own I suppose.

I will always remember this fine and random day of my youth.

Latest Poll

Sorry It took a bit to make this official, but shits gotten a bit crazy lately. So there seemed to be a pretty overwhelming vote (50%) that MMF's (three ways with two dudes) were Super GEEE, suprisingly the runners up both at 22% were Totally legit, and as long as swords dont cross. so essentially 44% seemed to think in some way or another it was cool to be helping your bro show a nice young lady what a chinese finger trap really is. and apperently nobody got the whole "get em Tone" thing which really dissappointed me.

Bar Fight !

So tonight a few buddies and I decided to roll down to the senior social. The theme of this event was a pirate luau. There were some amusing 40 year old dudes there breaking it down with equivalent aged women that made me chuckle at first. But then out of no where an unprecedented event took place. I turned around and the bartender is hoping over the bar attacking literally the smallest dude in the place. He sprints and him and grabs/swings at him. Then is when people start to react and step in. The good news is they let the little guy get at least two solid face shots in on the bartender before pulling them both apart. The thing is the bartender I believe was the only dude that worked there in the room so he had no one to back him up or kick the kid out from what I could tell. Apparently what happened is The bartender cut the young man off so the young man said a few choice words to him and hit all the beer taps so they were spilling beer all over the place. This is what caused him to hop the bar. You may be thinking that this is a waste of beer. But no my fine people several folks came up to me stoked that they were able to fill there beers for free while the fight was going on.
I believe this bartender can fit in the category of townie which I spoke of in my previous post.

How many of you have seen a bartender hop the bar and try to beat the shit out of someone? Well I have now and it is truly amusing!

Hell for a small town in the middle of Maine there sure are a lot of amusing things that go down! What will happen next?

Senior citizen discounts

Recently I have started to notice that old people get benefits in life that us younger folk do not. For instance my dad and I went to Wendy's the other day and because he was over 60 he got 10% off his meal. I am 23 years old I want 10 % off my meal. Does Wendy's think that old people are going to eat that much less that they deserve a discount. Or is it that they thoroughly enjoy the presence of old people so much that they give them a discount.
Another instance is the early bird special. Often happens around 5-6 am. Old people can cruise on through since they have already been up for an hour or two and get a 2 dollar breakfast. Now I realize this is not the busiest time of day so the companies might want to get these oldies in their seats. But damn if i get up at 5 am and want fucking breakfast at I Hop or Denny's or something they best be giving me that deal as well. I mean hell I earned that discount. I was probably up till 3am and only got 2 hours of sleep and just felt like wandering to get some food. As where an old person went to bed at 6:45pm and got 10 hours of sleep. They did not earn this discount at all. They got a great nights sleep. They had time to get up. Shower, put there teeth in, fix their toupee and they still get a discount? What kind of society is this.


Wow I just learned of a senior discount that takes the cake............................ An EZ pass turnpike discount for seniors. This is the most outlandish thing I have ever heard. First of all this discount starts at age 65. This is an age where old people need to start cutting down on driving for the rest of our safety. Not only is this unfair, it just encourages our roads to be less safe to drive on. I do not want to drive down the turnpike and have 4 lanes full of old people who said hell were going to travel more now because we got our EZ pass discount. I can just imagine people going 60 miles an hour and then not looking slowing to 50 to change lanes and cutting people off left and right. This sounds like a hell on earth, and I for one can not be a part of this.


Someone soon needs to take a stand against these discounts for the old folk of our nation. Do yourself a favor a google simply " senior citizen discounts" and look at some of this shit. Some of the sites have a mind boggling amount of deals for the "old".
I am young and don't have money, and the amount of discounts I receive as a student does not compare at all to that as an old person.

It probably hurts companies to give these discounts to seniors only. I do not want to be in a place or restaurant that is overtaken by old people. Don't get me wrong this articile is not about bashing the old people themselves, its about the fact that old people are profiting from being old, while us younger folk are spending more money so old people can get discounts. Its just not right!

Townies

Townies...................... The folks that heckle you as you walk around any sort of town. The people that sit under light posts after midnight and yell things at you hoping that you will want to fight them. The guys that all day every day drive there shitty cars or trucks around and peel out all over town. The guys that will go to parties and creep in the corner or outside, or maybe just try to start shit if there is enough of them just for a little entertainment.

Well is there a place for this forever? How long can you just be a townie for?
After thinking about this for a while now I have come to the conclusion that Townies will live on forever. Sometimes they will even just keep growing in numbers because the elders of the group do not move on from the current town.

The way I look at it is most of the time Townies seem to be some sort of friends with the local law enforcement. Therefore most of the shit that they pull gets swept under the rug. This being said if you don't have a whole lot going on. Why not stick around, hoot and holler and raise hell with no repercussions?

Well there is something I like to call moving along. Maybe growing up in some ways.... Or even just changing your scene. How long can you do literally the same shit every day for? There has to be a point in a Townies life where He/She realizes or thinks..... there must be more out there. There could be other cities to explore... there could be other activities to take part in.

Some may choose to move on from there typical townie ways. Maybe they meet a girl, or actually decide to get some sort of job. But most seem to decide to stick to their guns, and just keep on doing what they always do annoy and bother everyone who is not them.

In closing I pose the question what is worse than being the dingle berry of a town?
