red750 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 We were so poor, my parents couldn't buy clothes for me. They got me a cap so I could look out the window. Don't tell me - your parents couldn't afford windows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 "Quite often I get to thinking how as kids we got by Like at Christmas time at our house we couldn't even afford a fire But we made do with what we had back then when I was young Dad used to suck a peppermint and we'd all sit around his tongue We couldn't afford no sparkling tinsel for our Christmas tree So we'd just wheel old Granddad in and make the old c*** sneeze..."

planedriver Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I got blue pills to help with that And I was wondering why a whole tin of those blue elipse mints did nothing to help my situation. They looked similar, but I suppose you get what you pay for these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
