    I like the plan where they converted old missile bases to LSD labs better than turning them into survivalist condos.

    Back myself into a hole, nowhere to go. I’ll take my chances with Bartertown. I’ve got skills, I can trade them.

    I laughed hysterically over the guys sales technique @ 08:01. Convincing an old Jewish woman of the necessity of putting her body in a crematorium. Got to stare open mouthed at the salesman that’s making anecdotes of selling oven space to old Jewish people. Guy’s not just walking that fine line of sanity he’s doing pirouettes.
     

    I know what you’re going to say “He didn’t mean it like that”. Yeah I know that’s my point, he’s clueless about what he’s saying. That makes it funny, I can imagine the astonishment on the old woman’s face as this fool is just prattling on about stuffing her body in an oven, just trying anything he can to sell his shit. ROFL! Pure Americana.
