Buy Shit Tonite
FOUND by Chris in Findon, Australia
This was a weird find. I found it outside my office, sort of half buried in the dirt. It caught my eye and I picked it up.

Forget the light bulbs. You're gonna turn the lights off anyway. Save the money, give it to Ron on the next page.

ben's in for a good night
hope it's worth the looks from the supermarket clerk.
this reminds me of when i was working at a service station and this guy bought condoms, lube and six snickers bars at 2AM. he told me i "didn't want to know" what the snickers bars were for.

p.s. clover, who still has sex in the dark?

You know you're a pothead when you have to remind yourself to get the "good shit".

People buy shit, including drugs and sex paraphernalia. Enough of the shopping list finds.

Ben (in re: snickers)
That is hilarious! It's embarrassing to go to the store for condoms; now I realize that the way to cope is to say something that makes the store clerk more uncomfortable than I am.

M'thew in for a good laugh
Carrots, cucumbers, lube and condoms.
Yeah, I do not want to know what the veggies are for.

I had the same question as M'thew... I wonder if these items are being combined... like putting the weed in the brownie mix....

@ M'thew ... forget about the veggies. I don't want to know what the lightbulbs are for!!

Cube? As in Rubik's? Now, I REALLY don't want to know what that's for...

Maggi Noodles? Are those perhaps Europe's response to Ramen noodles? I'm jealous, I've never seen a Maggi noodle.

Only Uncle Fester would need lightbulbs for sex--but that's just because of his electric personality.

Child in time
you can get both maggi and ramen noodles in europe, orinoco^^

plus you can get pretty good weed if located in the netherlands or within reach of your dealer of choice (except maybe in parts of france and germany, they got a weird taste for that)

but what gets me about this list would be how it's written- some stone-drunk dude lying on his couch, thinking of achieving the same state again (and maybe even getting laid!)- and writing down great ideas while he's still able, then gently passing out, completely forgetting about having written his list.

for bets on what he's gonna forget to get-
i'd say lightbulbs and lube are promising candidates

I like how the vodka and beer and weed called for exclamation points.

I wonder what items where for immediate use and what items were just stocking up. Based on the handwritting, I would guess the light bulbs were an essential.

@ FLARGY- AHAHAHA!!!!! Good one, buddie!!! Fits the FIND perfectly, too.

I knew and use to hang with this couple back in the early 80's and they were, lets say, KINKY or TABOO for that time. If it would've been the 60's...no questions asked!
Anyhoo, she (Sherry) was telling me of their nightly schedule(and that's the word she used, too!!)and Sherry said that he (Dave) left the bedroom and came back with something long! I guess she thought it was him...hahaha!!! Now, the room was pitch black so who knows what it could have been!!
Anyhoo, all of a sudden, she hears a cap being twirled off a jar or a tube and Dave's hands were rubbing something (and it wasn't her!) well, the *something* was a cucumber from Dave's mom's fruit/veggie bowl on the kitchen table!
Sherry said she was frightened at first, but after she warmed up and the rythym got good...it was wayyy better than (ahem) him!!!!!
And, in the morning, Sherry went upsatirs to get some O.J. from the fridge and there was the mighty 'ol *cuke* laying in the bowl!!!!

Probably saying to her, in her head, "You know you want me...take me...eat me in a salad...use and abuse me...come on, Sher..."!!!!

I'll never, ever forget that story!!!
Mind you, I know Sherry is a vegetarian, now.

Holly. I'm more than a little disturbed by your friends.
+ July 25, 2008 09:40 AM +

Mona--I'm more disturbed that Holly felt the need to share that anecdote with the class.

It's always "a friend", isn't it. Sokay Holly, we all know who your "friend" is.

@ Holly - I know a couple named Dave and Sherry, but they've never lived anywhere near Canada so not them, but still amusing.

Nobody commented on the awful handwriting? I think it's just more than chicken scratch, maybe the person broke their arm and is writing w/ the opposite hand, or still trying to make do w/ the one in the cast?

@Holly That's the best story I've read here in a long while!It makes up for the fact that this Find is yet another list...the preponderance of which I've been railing against for over a week!
We can only hope that the Found guys will actually listen now that more people have started complaining about all the lists, and stop posting Found lists for a while.

Actually it's been more than a week, that I've been tired of these lists.

I do know a Dave and Sherry, who do live in Canada. I really don't think it's them.

I'm kinda tired of the lists, too.

Another list...people like to make lists, then discard them in random places, I am convinced.

I am going to make RANDOM lists and purposely place them in non-random places.

BTW, I have tasted some kind of Maggi product...maybe soup? The name rings a bell..

Another vote for "tired of lists"...

mona lisa in the grocery aisle
Sammy, Maggi (well, the one i know, anyway) is a brown liquid that comes in a brown long necked bottle with a yellow lid that allows you to sprinkle it into soups and stuff, to add some flavour. My family is Dutch, and we've always had it in the house.

I liked how he wrote: "Chocolate Brownies" like there were a lot of other kinds to choose from.

Weirdest thing on the list: "Cube"

Too lazy to Google and find out what "work-skil" is really about, but I hope they teach better spelling skilz than the logo would seem to indicate.

Unless they really actually work in the LOLcat sector...

YES! Thanks, Mona. I have used that brown liquid in a bottle. I knew I had seen it before.


Maybe a cube is a special kind of bong.

Well, it could be...

@John in Grand Haven.. just checked out the work skil website.. how embarrassing for them. I wonder if the list-writer is employed? Or even employable?

If Cube is really Lube, that means Condoms is really Londoms.

Beldar, consum in g moderate quantities
I wonder if this list writer is French, because it really looks like it says, "carotte." It also looks like "chocolat & brownies."

aaaaand.. it looks like Gucumbers, which, of course, is not French at all.

I'm just relieved that there's no E on Potoato.

@ MONA- Well, I'd have to find out if they're still alive and introduce them to you!!!

@ SICK- I don't embarrass that easy, so, if it was me...I'd been more than happy to share that story with the class!!

@ SMALLBEAR- You are so WELCOME, my dear *FOZZY BEAR*!!!!
I really do adore your stories, as well!

@ Christina- Thanks, and I'm with you on that...don't think it's that Sherry & Dave!!

In the states, they call that brown liquid Kitchen Bouquet. It's mainly used to add color.

Maggi Noodles are actually noodles, not sauce. I never realised they weren't international. I work in Findon (if this is the Findon I'm thinking), it's a pretty bogan suburb (not that the people aren't lovely despite that)

Mm, I love Maggi sauce. That stuff is better than soy sauce...and it's not whatever the texan was referring to.

Maggi Noodles. Some psychos eat them raw, most of us cook them. They're just two minute noodles. The type that come in a cake of dried noodles with a sachet of stock and herb flavouring. In a yellow packet, when cooked they're long and wavy, unless you break them.
A big old explination. Man I want noodles right now.....
If it wasn't in another state I'd swear my brother wrote it. You don't need a broken arm for that grade of scrawlings.
And the 'cube' is most certainly lube, only the 'l' has a dicky bit up the top.
Now, I'm off to smoke and drink. Have a lovely day.

And that's a freakin great list.

the lube makes me wonder exactly what purpose the carrots and cucumbers are going to serve... just a thought.
