Cheap! Cheap!

[Diva]

I was listening to the radio today when they were talking about cheap people. Everything from 'washing' paper towels to not flushing toilet.

How cheap are you? Do you know anyone cheap? What have they done?

[Andie]

I wish i was cheap..then i would have some cash once in a while..

[Jake]

My great aunt would bring her own teabag to restaurants. I would just cringe when she pulled out that tinfoil. Not only that, but the teabag might have been used once already.

[Jennafer]

God, I know people (well used to) that used to go to all you can eat buffets and then put bags in their purse so they could eat more. I never did cause I thought that was pretty stupid...???? All you can eat and still need more....???? Damn. I'm cheap to a degree, but because I have to be not by choice. It's kinda cool now cause I love getting a bargain deal and it gives me a rush to find something for a buck or $.50 that would have cost alot more at a department store. I used to be the total opposite, but I got tired of blowing all my $$ and being broke. I've even heard of people snagging sweet and lows at restaurants. That's bad.....

[kittyroze]

Um, besides stealing extra food out of food schwag here on campus and stealing their toilet paper to use as tissue/towels and showering once every two days to save on the soap, hand washing clothes to avoid paying to use the machines, the only food I buy is ramen...

Hmm...I'm not cheap, I think I'm just a college student :D

[SysLord]

Um, wash once every two days? Mm, hope you are not a hairy kitty :cheesy:

[Jake]

tissues as towels? That must be mighty strong tissue.

I can relate to the hand washing your clothes. And Top Ramen was my best friend in school, too.

[Bff Biff]

Let's take up a collection, and buy the Kitty girl some soap. The idea of a two day old puss... oops, kitty, is disturbing.

We will have to have film though, OK?

[kittyroze]

Lol...no, not a dirty pussy...er...kitty...I'm very much a neat freak and hygeine oriented...not that it sounds like it, huh?

[Diva]

Heh. You gotta watch it around these guys, Kat. Leave em an inch, they'll call it a mile. :eek:

[Jennafer]

Well, here's my poorest time.....Homeless!!!! It was only for about 10 days and I had a great time, but I'll admit handsoap sucks for the hair in the bar. Dawn dishwashing liquid is a little better. But, I had everything in my purse, make up, brush, toothbrush, perfume, deoderant, hairspray, money (some) keys.....I just didn't want to come home. I even went to RHPS. But, after the 10th day, I bummed a bus token and went home and had some vegetable soup. (?)

[SunnyHeadcase]

I was thrifty when I needed to be, when I first moved out here. But now I prolly spend to much money on stuff like the Chung King soy sauce instead of the La Choy, The Old Navy jeans instead of the Target AZ, Pepsi instead of Safeway brand cola. I've been burned too many times from buying cheap stuff, so if I can afford it, I get the best.

[kittyroze]

Again, I'm into the college cool look. Thrift stores where you can buy jeans by the pound rock. Not that I don't go all out once in awhile. I AM a business major, I drop cash into power suit dresses and stilleto heels when I can.

[Bff Biff]

Stilletos....... Never do we get video, just images in our minds, of our forum ladies in high heels and power suits. Diva, I demand we have a video thread.

BTW... I surrender, take me to your leader....Please.

[kittyroze]

For some reason I doubt you guys could handle us forum ladies over video ;) :winkkiss:

[Bff Biff]

Probably true, but I want to die taking a chance. It's good for the soul. Good night, you bad, bad girl!!!

:baby: :baby: :baby: :kissy:

[kittyroze]

I thought I was just dirty ;) From not showering that is. Sorry. I would like to clarify that I do shower daily...I just don't necessarily introduce the soap.

[kittyroze]

"Hi soap, this is Cat" "Cat, this is soap"...sorry...I just...yeah. Nevermind.

[Bff Biff]

Uh Huh...... fess up! did you finally buy soap?

Buy Martha Soap, for all your friends.........

[kittyroze]

Lol, maybe I did, maybe I didn't. If you can smell me from New Mexico, then maybe not.

[Bff Biff]

I'll just keep that thought in mind, and go to sleep. I hope I don't have any 'fishy' nightmares.

Film at 11:00

I am a business major too but still I say: f*ck the suits :)

MM, maybe it depends on whether it would be interactive or not. Playstation 2?

[kittyroze]

Mmm playstation 2. I am dying to play Final Fantasy X.

[SysLord]

How can a poor college student afford a PS2 heh? :)

[kittyroze]

I can't...which is why I'm still dying to play the game. I have a PS 1 an ex lent me the day he broke up with me. Needless to say I've kept it over a year...I'll probably return it at some point...buuuuut...after I can buy a PS 2 ;)

[SysLord]

Good timing for breaking up I would say. My sister has a PS2 she hardly ever uses. Another case of how trends and commerce can fool people into thinking they *need* something. I will stick to SimCity on my Psion :D

[kittyroze]

Lol, I just want to borrow a PS 2 really, to see FFX. I just have a thing for the final fantasy games...something about beautiful graphics.

[SysLord]

I will give my sister's contact details lol. I think I have a Final Fantasy game once and I have seen the film. Very nice indeed. It's amazing what the design studio's can do nowadays with the top-notch graphics hardware power. DOOM III is supposed to be ghastly scary. :eek:

[kittyroze]

I haven't heard too much about doom...I HAVE heard a bit about Halo on the XBox...it's supposed to be a blast.

[SysLord]

Haven't head about Halo. Well too be honest I am not a M$ lover so that's probably why. DOOM is pure cult though. How I still love playing the first version of it. Primitive but fun! Roooooooaor :)

[kittyroze]

I'm not a M$ lover either...but...yeah. I like to download old nintendo games, meself. Something about crappy graphics appeals to me...in a different way from the good ones...but they're still great. It's those ones that are middle of the road that bug me.

[SysLord]

Exactly, the real primitive ones are great! Where are they days that people could code a whole game in 10K! My first ever computer was a Philips one that could hold game cartridges with a memory size of ... 2K!

[kittyroze]

Wow...how long ago was that ;) My first experience with electronic games was the gameboy. My parents refused to let me play nintendo until I was nine...when I went on a tour of france with my family and had to spend hours and hours on a tour bus.

[SysLord]

Gameboy, that's way advanced. That used to be my favorita pass time on the toilet lol. It was my sister's gamebody mind you :) Mmm, the 2K computer was about 20yrs ago.

[kittyroze]

So, my age then. Yikes. ;)

[SysLord]

'Yikes'

That says it all.

Ancient

Prehistoric

Fossile

AULD

Darn, where's my cloning therapist!?

[kittyroze]

Oh my my my.

[SysLord]

Jee, what do you with a patronizing tweener heh? :D

[kittyroze]

I'm sorry, did you say something?
(ignore them ;) )

[SysLord]

You can't, they are a fact of life. They have infiltrated the core my existence. The truth is out there.

[kittyroze]

Where? What are you talking about? Huh? Weird?

;) The truth is in there rather...I think we'd all be better off if we understood human nature/thought processes a bit better. I really don't think psychologists have come that far.

[SysLord]

I don't think we ever will not even with the most advanced genetic technologies. That will remain part of the mystery and beauty of being a human being.

[kittyroze]

Although I won't put a limit on the vast and beautiful intricacies (I am too sleepy to spell right now) of the human being, I will also say that one shouldn't doubt science. I don't think there's anyway we can say that in the next 300 years (or whatever) that we won't be able to make any huge leaps in understanding people.

[SysLord]

No I don't kind but I choose and hope to believe that some parts will always remain a mystery. I'd very please with a 95% figure.

Hey Cat, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :)

[kittyroze]

Don't encourage me...I've pretty much committed to an all-nighter at this point.

[SysLord]

How about some coffee then? Cappuccino? Espresso?

[kittyroze]

I wish. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with myself...I'm just trying to cut back on the high calorie beverages.

[SysLord]

simple: water, water, water. Pure and harmless as life itself. Recommend brand: SPA

[kittyroze]

At college the best thing I can afford to do is use a Brita filter. That's about as luxurious as things can get. I am misspelling things left and right...oye

[SysLord]

As long as it is not poisoneous I am sure it will do fine :)

[kittyroze]

Over chlorinated, but not too bad for me. I hope. Although I do have a weak immune system.

[Diva]

... I knew a woman who would bring tinfoil with her and save the tea bag that she ordered. :eek:

[kittyroze]

People seem to be prety concerned with their tea :)

[Bff Biff]

Diva... we all know the teabag 'lady' is you. Fess up....... cheap, cheap, cheap.

[Jake]

I knew a guy who walked around with duct tape holding his shoes together. He insisted they had some life left in them. We took them when he was sleeping and gave them to a homeless person. He actually was going to ask for them back.

[Diva]

Iced tea, baby. I drink iced tea. :p

I saw this man take 2 news papers from a machine. Why would anyone need two papers?

[kittyroze]

When I'm out of bandaids and have no cash I've used cotton and tape. I once used cotton and duct tape when I was out camping to deal with blisters.

[Bff Biff]

I've used duct-tape for everything. Birth control (i taped my thing to my butt) and Birth control (i taped a bag on her head) and birth control (i taped her mothers' car keys to my ass)...

Do I need to go on...

Moral: Duct Tape is good. I'm simple...........

[kittyroze]

Hey baby, let's try this kinky toy...yeah...okay, here it is. Yeah, no no...it's not a paper bag...come on....just put it on for a second...ahhh...pllleeeease ?

Duct tape rocks...if you can't do it with duct tape, it can't be done.

[Bff Biff]

Agreed.... Agreed.........not only a bowling, trash mouthed, educated, cheap, slut... but practical too. You cannot hang off the ceiling without the aid of Duct-Tape. My roadies called it 'fix-all'

"A new thread" Kitty?? ? The many uses of Duct-Tape????

You first, Diva next, Tats and Jenn if you're still talkin"???? Then the boys, that when it'll get wicked........

[kittyroze]

http://www.octanecreative.com/ducttape/new_intro/index.html :p

[Bff Biff]

Kitty, you are a piece of work. Who would guess that there's a 'duct tape' site. Halloween yet....... amazing.

[kittyroze]

:winkkiss: There are several duct tape sites...that one is just my favorite. Continuing on with random weirdness... http://www.twinkiesproject.com/

[Jennafer]

Kitty Rose, you can have high calorie beverages.....Just drink while standing....See people in America....kids more like are gaining and gaining from technology. Don't get me wrong I love my toys, but I would stand and get online if I had it set up right. But, back to my point....when I was a kid we went outside played all kinds of shit, but now a days they've supersized all the fast food products so you're stomach will stretch and all the toys kids have now they just sit in front of. No wonder kids are heavier than when I was a kid. Times have just changed so that's all they know, but shit! I didn't even have Atari!!! I had a fucking Vic20 from hell....Still do somewhere??? (closet stash) But, me and my friend realized that god who needs a supersized Big Mac!!! I get a fucking "happy meal" and toss the fries...."Ooo, I got a toy!" I'm going to collect them and do ate up pics.

[kittyroze]

I understand, but now people are trying to sue McDonald's for serving those high calorie, artery clogging good time, high fat meals. Which is ridiculous. It's people's own fault for eating them. And for not going outside more.

[SysLord]

I think you can blame your 'sue someone's ass, get rich quick' practices for that.

[kittyroze]

Yeah yeah yeah. Sometimes I wonder if I should just find a new country...I mean the US is fine. But. Yeah. Huh.

[SysLord]

Hey you asked, I answered :) I didn't even start about that rotten president of yours :D

[kittyroze]

President Pube? I mean...er...Bush. Yeah, I used to have plenty of thoughts on him...but I realized it wasn't even worth bothering ;)

[SysLord]

Disagree, you should be bothered. Too many people not bothering makes Mr Dickhead get away with so many things.

[kittyroze]

I bother when there's something I can do about it...my best friends and I take turns writing some mean letters to the editor...but that's about all we are able to do at the moment.

[SysLord]

Whatever you can do, however small it is. It helps.

[Jennafer]

Bush's baked beans.......Yum. I think I plastered my tits on a wall in green paint, but can't remember? I have paint on my jeans though......???????? "Roll that beautifal bean footage...."

[kittyroze]

Speaking of idiot politician...check out my govenor...
http://209.41.184.21/partners/311/public/news366001.html
"Judy Martz has extolled her husbands virtues, including the fact that he never beat her, "but then again," she said, "I never gave him any reason to."

[kittyroze]

Two things...politician(s) and gove(r)nor...

:p

[Bff Biff]

Fuck!!! "I never gave him any reason to???" See, miss kitty, I rest my case. Fear. Any reason??? of course you didn't give him any reason. Is there an acceptable reason???

None... No reason to kick the dog either, for doing a no-no on the rug. Rugs you replace. You can't replace a loved one, including your "dog" "wife" "love" "mum" etc... get my drift???

I'm starting to really like you and understand you Kitty. Please bring on the next generation of people that care, by saying "NO" The future is in your hands.

Carry it carefully.........

[kittyroze]

Wow, you're really sweet Biff. Let me warn you...it's DAMN hard to get anyone to care. Everyone seems to be filled with such apathy...and yet it seems so forced. Like they just put up that wall to protect themselves. Anyway, more later :)

[Bff Biff]

Kitty, read my bio... I'm 50, happy as a clam, retired, although I have never quit working, and I have a great family and great friends/dogs/critters/varmints/food.

My concern is one thing and only one thing. The future holds no mystery for me. I've 'died' twice, am still kicking, and will go on kicking for a while longer.

However, my kids, and you, will have to carry on in this world. I hope, above all things, that we take a lesson from our indian brothers and sisters, and start to care for the earth, so that it is still inhabitable for the next generations. It's scary to think that we could leave a wasteland, or even worse, nothing at all, for the next generations. I would hate to be remembered as the generation that 'fucked it up' for everone that follows. What a great legacy. eh???

[kittyroze]

Happy as a clam cause you know how to appreciate the important things...

I've been raised to live hard and fast...and not give a shit about the other things. I figure if it's what I was taught, it's what other kids my age have learned as well...

I'm not saying I don't give a shit about other things...I do...it's just so hard when so few other people do. And those who do, don't seem to be making that big of a difference. SIGH!

[Bff Biff]

SEE... you do have 'balls' Carry on Miss Kitty, ain't no stoppin' you.

You will make a diff (biff), even if you don't know it yet. You'll find a 'niche' Lots of folks here to help you, too!!!

Bless the NCT, and our boss, the Diva gal...

[kittyroze]

Flatterer. I like nothing better than being called a classy broad...okay, maybe a few things :p

[Bff Biff]

Classy Broad......... take that!!

[kittyroze]

Woot! I see your classy broad, and raise you a silly set of pictures...none are very good...better ones will come...

http://www.nochicktrix.com/fun/oth/vb/kitty/catscrazy.jpg

[Jake]

Cute pictures, Kitty. Heh. My dad told me about a guy who demanded the rest of the soda on a plane. Now that's cheap. It's free!

[kittyroze]

Now, if you mean the rest of the can, since they don't give it to you...then I do it too :p

[Jake]

:eek:

[Diva]

Speaking of cheap... I hate that you have to pay for ear plugs on a plane... and then give them back. Five bucks to rent a pair of earplugs for a lousy movie. You'd think they'd also be included...

[Sterling]

Bring your own headphones, the airline ones suck anyway. Even better, if you travel a lot, bring noise cancelling headphones - they make it significantly more restful. I highly recommend it.

[Jake]

Can you use your own? I thought they had special plugs.

[Bff Biff]

All women have special plugs!!!and yes, you can use your own!!!

(women plugs, that is)

[kittyroze]

Um...This makes me think of a certain feminine product. Why oh why did you have to mention women plugs?

[Bff Biff]

These were the 'special' plugs I was referring to, however, don't ask your flight crew to pass them out. That would be silly.

A little PMS Kitty???

[kittyroze]

Nope, no PMS...Then I WOULD have gone crazy last week. I have this theory that men get PMS too...I can't prove it yet...but someday, after a degree in medicine, I shall. It will be done.

[Andie]

Kitty..Please give us notice when its time..i want be safely hidden somewhere..

[kittyroze]

Hee hee hee...warning? You don't need no stinkin warning!!!

[SysLord]

Do men have PMS? I thought we were just grumpy?

[kittyroze]

PMS
"Psychotic Mood Shift"
"Pack My Stuff"
"Perpetual Munching Spree"
"People Make(Me) Sick"
"Provide Me (with) Sweets"
"Pardon My Sobbing"
"Pass My SweatPants"
"Pissy Male Syndrom"
and finally, my favorite...
"Pass My Shotgun"

That time of the month. When things start to look a little less Rosey. Right Diva?

You're my little angel here!

*blush*
Thank you Diva..I do try from time to time..;)

[kittyroze]

I would just like to announce that I went to costco and bought a butt load of soap. That is all.
