    While trying to watch videos on YouTube, only to be interrupted by bullshit scam ads about fixing stuck poop and hokey erectile dysfunction cures and other senseless crap. It reminds me of the old comic book ads back in the day (decades ago), with the X-ray glasses and flying cars- all these damn LIES! :mad:

    Something new? Ads for a combo thing for ED, the blue pill + Cialis, trying to make people think that it's easy to get, but then the fine print says that you need a 'recurring subscription' as well as still needing a doctor's scrip. These are nearly as annoying as the 'proper' pharma ads for wonder drugs that just go on and on and on.... at least half because of all the different ways that the wonder drug can kill you. Isn't that nice?

    Americans were all raised on Gilligan's Island, which is why they censor one episode. The show only ran for two years, and it's a national disgrace.

    Yes uBlock Origin, the best of all of them, it seems to work great for a lot of things and there is a version available for every browser that we use in our household. I'm a IT tech and I always check all of that stuff out as well as I can.

    And of course duckduckgo but use settings to turn off all of the crap that is turned on be default.

    I don't understand them either. $85k truck to beat the crap out of - towing a $150k trailer. No thanks. I can stay in the Hilton for a long time for that money...

    The first cars were the playthings of millionaires, and these mobile homes and trucks will soon be dinosaurs. All the newer designs for electric vehicles can put the motors right inside the wheels and the batteries in the floor. They look like a box, but the entire interior can be rearranged anyway you like, and the whole thing can even be self-sufficient. We are at the point now, of using chips that can pump heat out the air, and recharge your batteries overnight.

    The mobile home from hell, that will cost a fraction of this one.

    It’s for people who want to bring luxury with them when they go to the great outdoors, and hit the road a lot. Some folks don’t like doing the hotel room thing, and I understand why. Vacancies, shitty customer service, bed bugs, substandard amenities, rude receptionists, and etc., etc.

    I have a friend who just retired - they have a beach place and way more money than they need that they've worked hard for. Anyway, they got a big airstream trailer and decided to travel around for a year or two, get it out of their system then sell it off and settle in. Not my cup of tea, but hey if you like it, knock it out.

    All well and good.
    But not my cup of tea.
    This is more my cup of tea, a 1965 Serro Scotty.

    They used to build these down the road from where I grew up.
    About 1965 my father bought a used one, raised the top, put on a cab over overhang, dropped the axle and bolted it to our '49 Studebaker one ton stake truck.

    upload_2025-10-16_11-12-47.jpeg

    Loaded in five kids and drove 1,000 miles to Florida and another 1,000 back at a top speed of 50 mphs.

    Now that's luxury!​

    “Click bait”. Can’t stand it, it shouldn’t be allowed. Annoying, deceptive, waste of time.

    Maybe it's a California thing but hearing people on TV pronounce "didn't" as "DID DENT". It's a contraction of "did" and "not". Now, say it all together now...."DIDNT" there is ONE "D" in the middle...
