The Groceries in your Trunk thread

[baseball]

Went to Lowe's last week for fertilizer, top soil, etc. I was amazed that I not only got all 6 bags to fit (4 in front, 2 in rear), but I had room for at least 2 or 3 more bags.

This car's beauty is more than skin deep!!

LB, you crack me up. You sound just like my sister in her 20's. I know you are somewhat joking but you can't get everything without some compromise. You have to do something on that list. (who does it now?)

Your dad is an exception, he really spoils your mom. It is going to be tough for your future boyfriends to live up to your dad. Very tough. You will have to lower your expectations.

Things change when you get married.... get ready for compromise (toilet cleaning?)

[LoveBunny]

Hahaha, ideally I'd love to find a man to do all that, but really I'd be happy to marry a man I just truly love. Who does it all now? Me. But not very happily and often not very frequently. But I figure I can hire a maid if I marry a guy who just must have a clean toilet and won't clean it himself. But really, marriage, THAT is a scary word!

And yeah, my dad may be exceptional in some ways, but my mom pays for it in other ways!

[hjkim550]

We are going way off topic now.

Pays for it in other ways? Ominous. Marriage? You are still young. You have plenty of time to play. Marriage scared me as well until I found my wife. You will know.

Ok... I have to stop now. The other forum members will start picking on me if we stray too far from P-cars. I have to face Sammy and Nickcats at the autocross next week.

[LoveBunny]

I didn't mean that to sound as awful as it does when I said she "pays" in other ways. My dad can just be a real pain in the ass and he's also the king of farts!

Well LB, I guess I wouldn't be the good fit that hjkim550 says to find. Seems we have too many things in common. I hate shopping in general, grocery shopping in particular (I'll eat everything in my house before I go grocery shopping), I don't cook but I do BBQ, I try to keep things neat so I don't have to clean, and you're supposed to clean toilets? I do take out the trash, I do laundry but I probably mix things that I shouldn't, and I haven't ironed a shirt since Mutual of Omaha went business casual 4 yrs ago. I buy wrinkle free slacks and take my shirts out of the dryer early and let them dry flattened out on my extra bed.

We also have similar tastes in automobiles.

[hjkim550]

Ok that is better.

Paying for all the chores with farting? Big deal. All men are gaseous. You just have to realize that. If you are going out with a guy and he does not seem to be gaseous..... he is holding it in. He is still on his first 2 months best behavior. If he is walking funny and seems to be constipated.... let him know it is ok. You grew up with your dad.

Oh, I'd probably never go to the grocery store if I didn't drink a lot of water. So I make myself go when I get down to the last couple of bottles. Ironing? I have shirts I haven't worn in over a year because I keep putting off ironing, seriously.

hjkim550, I know all men are gaseous! Shoot, women do it too (don't tell!) But my dad seriously is like way off the Richter scale. And my mom said he never was like that before they got married. Surprise, surprise!

[Frodo]

OMG! Flatulence, connubial servitude, hauling bags of manure in the Boxster...PERFECTLAP, LOOK WHAT HAVE YOU STARTED!

[jonnycool]

well where else was he can he sit when he's got dirty feet?!?!?!

[jonnycool]

the animal used in my previous post is a trained stunt dog and was paid a substantial bonus of 3 doggy chews.....please do not try this with your own pets.....thank you!

[Paul]

We raised two kids.

I changed 2 diapers and never got up at night.

I never shop.

I never cook.

I never do laundry.

I do all the car repairs, house repairs, and outside maintenance.

My wife hates to work.

I earn all the money.

We have been enjoying life and marriage for 35 years. Kinda weird nowadays...

[RandallNeighbour]

All of you grocery toten' boxster owners are NUTS.

I keep my car out of grocery store and home improvement car park lots.

I can pack a great deal in the trunks though!

and yeah the rear trunk is empty.

p.s.
oh wow I figured out how to reduce the size of the picture.

just yesterday at school a couple of kids were marveling over how I put my stuff in the front trunk...they said "Wow, that's the coolest car ever!" and I said "Thanks, and it even has a trunk in the back." "Wow" was the only answer I could hear Another recent time, other middle school kids said "That is a really nice car!" and asked me what it was: I said "It's a Porsche, you should get one!" Hopefully they will remember that and do that.
Moral of the story: stay in school

[jonnycool]

well the rear trunk is occupied by my german shepard being second dawg n'all, pictures withheld due to possible prosecution!!!

[eqs]

I love it, what a forum. Groceries, hooking up, farts, toilet chores.....Fun!


Love that Pcar. Cheers

[70Sixter]

PerfectLap seems so be able to start these threads better'n most.

[LoveBunny]

I haven't been to the grocery store since this thread has started, but I fit in my front trunk pretty well.

[Perfectlap]

^ LB you got any junk in that trunk?

[eqs]
