Who'd a thunk it?
7I never would have thought when I purchased my Built neoprene sleeves, way back when, that Meh would make me rich, but they have.
I was browsing at ebay and saw this:
I’ve got SIX of them. I’M RICH! Plus, I’ve still got a whole bunch of other sleeves left from my two box purchase. I’m doubly, maybe even triply or more, rich.
Anyone else around here still investing in Built Neoprene covers?
YOU’RE RICH!
Thank you, Meh.

@mediocrebot Why you do dis??
@DennisG2014 @mediocrebot creepy AF
@mediocrebot @tinamarie1974 So, apparently, “creepy” triggers both the Adams family gif and the one of that statue that I think might be from Dr. Who.
But that’s not what’s triggering the Saw puppet.
The image doesn’t bother me… not knowing what’s causing it bothers me more than it should. h/t @Irk.
@mediocrebot
/giphy WHY?!?
@DennisG2014 @Irk @mediocrebot @tinamarie1974 Could it be Meh? Or maybe mediocrebot just likes Barney?
@DennisG2014 @Irk @mediocrebot @tinamarie1974 Maybe mediocrebot gives everyone a creepy image for their first post of the day?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@DennisG2014 @sammydog01
@mediocrebot is weird.
@Irk @mediocrebot @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974
Duh.
It just occurred to me, when I “saw” it appear under Sammydog’s post in another thread saying that you “saw” the movie I was talking about.
See? Saw.
@mediocrebot Ok, that’s enough of that.
@DennisG2014 Thank you. It was bugging me too.
@DennisG2014 @mediocrebot Is pumpkin a thing too?
@DennisG2014 Yep.

@DennisG2014 @RiotDemon @sammydog01
That’s just spooky.
Maybe that’s your thing, too. Yep.
@DennisG2014 @RiotDemon @sammydog01
So is scary.
I’m glad you saw that. I feel bad that I sold a bunch for a dollar each at garage sales, but there are still two or three floating around that don’t have devices in them. Maybe these are the new Bitcoin. I can buy the first Built Lamborghini.
@djslack I wonder if Lamborghinis come in purple?
@Barney loves purple.
@mediocrebot You bet your sweet bippy I do.

@Barneybot isn’t a real bot.
@mediocrebot I am a better bot than you and you are jelly.
@RiotDemon I love purple.
purple loves @barney.
@mediocrebot You can be so sweet at times.
@Barney years ago (probably about 20) there was a purple Lamborghini Diablo sitting in the driveway of a house probably worth less than half the price of the car on the way to my high school. It had a tarp over it that was weighted down with flowerpots. The front fascia was cracked and it made me sad.
Turns out it belonged to the older brother of a guy a friend of mine knew. He was in jail for selling drugs, surprise. I was trying to figure out how to put money together to try to buy it, figuring he needed to pay lawyers. But i had zero chance of getting together even enough money to buy a crack dealer Lamborghini at the time.
@Barney loves purple.
@djslack Do you know what happened to the car?
@Barney it went away after a few weeks or so, but i never found out the story. The guy’s brother and my friend were not close, just close enough that he got the initial story.

@Barney loves purple.
@djslack That would be a beautiful car to have, but I’d be scared to death to drive it.
@djslack A matchbox Lamborghini maybe. They sold for 99 cents, $3.49 (with free shipping) and $5. On the up side they all sold.

@Barney @djslack It’s a new undercover operation vehicle.
Thanks to federal seizure laws. Sounds good on paper until we are where we are today with local and state police making up for budget cuts through seizure programs (“you keep what you sieze/confiscate”, no due process, it’s basically legalized theft).

At least it’s not a

@Barney @mike808 while it’s no hellcat, I have an NA with a 306 and T5 that desperately needs me to finish it… sadly it’s been on the back burner to the rest of life for a while now. Started when i had little money and plenty of time, but now I’ve turned that into pretty much the opposite problem with some money and little time.
Re the seizure, I don’t know if that was prevalent in the late 90s. It obviously wasn’t impounded as part of his arrest but I suppose it could have been seized later, maybe after conviction or something.
Hmm… I wonder if @sammydog01 realizes that she sent me a polka dot neoprene sleeve a few months ago.
I’m rich!
@Barney
Meh’s entire reason for being has been undermined…
@duodec Meh doesn’t want to make us rich?
I’ve got creepy for you but to Damn complicate to have to post of fileshare 1st
@DrLysergic turn your phone sideways if you want to upload a photo. Otherwise just post the link if it ends in gif jpeg PNG etc.

@snapster @bro
I totally have a box of 50 in the basement somewhere.
I use mine to carry and protect my little Bose SoundLink speaker when I travel.
Most of my haul is now on Ebay too! I recently donated them to a local charity who has flea markets and sells on Ebay.
The one on my Kindle was more than worth the price I paid and I still have a spare. I’ve given a few others away.
