Next Christmas season, I am so putting this major award on my lawn


It'll be six full feet of the soft glow of inflatable electric sex gleaming on our lawn.

We HAVE to get an outside outlet installed before then. Yes, our house actually has no outside outlets. It's ridiculous.

8. Pretty much the only rules we can find pertain to giving them money
With a couple about beach passes and when you have to take your boats in. I have a pirated canoe and don't like swimming in lakes, so I figure, as long as I pay my dues, there are no rules.

Oh, and I do have access to the lake bar. Drinks are really cheap there. We should have bought a house on the other side of the lake. The walk is pretty long to our house.

17. Actually, my personal opinion IS fuck the HOA
Edited on Sun Dec-21-08 12:22 AM by haruka3_2000
But that's for another thread.

And, seriously, I have gotten domestic. Before meeting LostinVA, I pretty much spent a bunch of time in bars and was totally undomesticated. Now I enjoy Home Depot, Lowe's and IKEA.

10. That's why shotguns were invented
to keep kids from messing with the shit on your lawn. Duh.

It should be fairly safe. This place is inflatable lawn ornament central. Every other house has them, and the people who don't go all out decorating are usually Jewish. I haven't seen an inflatable menorah or dreidle yet, but I think someone should start making them. Hell, there's a guy around here who drives around in his "Menorah Mobile" during Hannukah. It's pretty funny. A little sedan with a giant menorah on the roof.

15. That almost happened to my cousin with a BB gun
while they were under the supervision of the only sober adult present. They were doing better with the drunks watching them.

29. Amazon sells them, but so do a bunch of other places
Just google inflatable leg lamp, and a bunch of places will pop up.

I haven't bought it yet, I'm planning on getting it after Christmas, when it will probably be cheaper.

20. Oh, damn, I wish I lived right across the street from y'all!!!
I want one of those soooo bad. I have wanted one ever since I saw it in the Christmas Story movie. :bounce:

Plus, as an added bonus, if I lived across the street, I have a degree in Computer/Electronics Engineering and a diploma in house wiring. :D

34. Depending on where you order it, between $50-100
A worthy investment, IMHO.

That movie traumatized me as a child. I wouldn't go within 10 feet of a frozen pole.
