You know my philosophy is that your possessions own you as much as you own your possessions. When I was single I intentionally made sure I never owned more than I could fit into a small U Haul trailer. I was also a "hippie," no doubt. Didn't and don't wear fancy clothes. HATE wearing suits. Drive a 10 year old pickup truck and will drive it until it won't go any more. Then when I buy another one all I'm going to be interested in is practicality. I make a six figure salary and my wife makes money too but we've lived in the same 15,000 square foot 1970s ranch style house that I've lived in for 23 years. Only house I've ever owned. No interest in getting a fancier one. And, of course, I buy grain alcohol instead of trying to impress people by pretending that I have sophisticated taste in liquor.

The poor guy just doesn't know. He thinks he does but he doesn't. He's just another Liberal who thinks he's enlightened when the whole time he's just been programed and brainwashed into buying the environmentalist and egalitarian lines. The cliches. The talking points. Lives totally detached from reality while thinking he REALLY understands but of course those awful conservatives don't.

At least that's what the case is if those lyrics in some way reflect his view of the world.

Dude nobody picked up on your 15,000 sq ft house

In honor of spanos showing up I give you women washing a caddy

Honestly I'm thrilled there are guys (and a sh!t loads of 'em) who work their lives away collecting stuff...
Otherwise who would we sell our sh!t to..?

I have no interest in working like that
But I'm all for it - when others do it

I'm sure it's a very humble 15,000 square foot home.

Some Questions Regarding the LEM "taking off from the moon"

1. Who was operating this camera?
2. Where is the rocket exhaust?
3. Why was dust disturbed on takeoff but no dust was disturbed at landing?
4. Not only does this camera zoom, but it also pans- How is this possible?
5. Can I get my taxpayer dollars stolen from me to pay for NASA's complete and utter bullshit back?
6. Is the Cameraman left on the Moon going to be picked up ever?

You are an idiot for whom there is no cure

Death cures stupidity.

I love it, even though I would never buy a Cadillac unless they make a pickup truck and I also am not the type who would buy a big house with a pool, etc., no matter how much money I had. Also not likely I'd buy an electric car until the ranges get WAY better than they are now. Still like the allusion to the spirit of the United States...or at least what it would be if we could JUST get rid of liberals/progressives.

Why do you hate a difference of opinion? What makes your way of thinking so right and everything else so wrong?

Just a thought I had this morning while I was paddling around in my kayak contemplating the universe:

It wasn't people reflecting the persona reflected by that Todd Snider guy in the Youtube videos who brought this country to the top of the heap while doing things like (yes EX man) landing on the moon, splitting and fusing the atom, becoming the greatest economic engine in history, developing the most effective military in history, etc.

It's people reflecting the persona of the character in that Cadillac commercial that did it while people reflecting the persona of that Todd Snider guy threw insults from the Peanut Gallery while contributing absolutely nothing of any use to the effort.

Ummmm... you do know that professional musicians work their asses off right? Not to mention the importance and effectiveness of political commentary. Woody Guthrie, Bob Marley, and Todd Snider have had more of a positive influence on the world and America than some Caddy owning "leader of regional sales" who neglects his family and will die in his early 50's of heart failure.

Besides, Einstein, Oppenheimer, and Teddy Roosevelt would have all sided with Snider instead of you. You got trolled and are now attempting a re-troll. Nice try.

Too close to the bone there.. AZ ?

[AZGrizFan]

Too close to the bone there.. AZ ?

What I found comical was lumping Todd Snider in with Bob Marley and Woody Guthrie.

Oh...
(You have worked with Kalm before right)

But aren't you a 50 something middle management executive
Working your life away in obscurity

Yes, but that commercial doesn't define me. A) I don't drive a Cadillac (see the conversation about GM products) and b) I get more than 2 weeks vacation a year.

Oh, and just because I'm obscure TO YOU, doesn't mean I'm toiling in obscurity.

[CID1990]

Cadillac is a sh1t car made by a sh1t company and this is a stupid thread

Even cheesy Russian mobsters in fvcking polyester warmups wont drive a goddam Cadillac

Caddy has been worthless since 1972, sort of like GM

[Grizalltheway]

Motor Trend disagrees, but what do they know about cars.

I said "most".

I'm sure it's a very humble 15,000 square foot home.

Darn. That's the kind of typo that totally blows the point. 1,500 square foot home.

Ah, that must be why you also said "we".
