Alternative Bucket List

Most bucket lists are full of things you WANT to do, but they usually involve a lot of money and time. So I am instituting a new kind of bucket list, a list of things I will NEVER do. (Someone give me a catchy name for it.)

• Own and drive a Corolla.
• Stop opening doors for women.
• Pay someone to change my windshield wipers.
• Obey stupid speed limits.
• Wear white socks with black shoes.
• Find religion.
• Shave any body part that is not on my head.
• Prefer a CVT.
• Secure the services of a prostitute or drug dealer. • Not crane my neck at the sight of a cool car.
• Vacation in Branson.

No offense to anyone, just my personal desires as of this afternoon.

So you'll have a Bin Laden beard on your face, and possibly other places too...?

Edit: Unless your chin & neck count as "on your head?"

I'm down with all of those, except for 2 items: I would own and/or drive a Corolla, and white socks with black shoes are perfectly fine (almost required) with blue jeans.

In addition to pinchy's list, here's a few random ones of my own:

• Cheat on my wife
• Own an SUV unless it is used more than twice a month for cargo and/or towing, or own a luxury SUV of any kind

Don't know about you, but my face is firmly attached to my head.

Mine as follows

Smoke
Quit enjoying wine, beer or Single Malt Scotch
Not own a V8 RWD manual
Believe a politician
Care what anyone else thinks of my way of life
Give up my firearms
Trust in the system to care for me or mine

Fair enough. I'll start calling pinchvalve King Neckbeard

Your argument is invalid.

I grew up in and around those. Leather interior does not make them "luxury".

Chicks dig the shorn scrot. I'm just saying.

In reply to pinchvalve:

How about the "berkeley it!" list?

I'm sure most of the things on your list have made people utter those words, so it seems to fit.

Isn't that the GGA thread?

shrug... I can't see ever un-learning the door opening thing ... I've always opened doors for others ... guess I'm too old to quit

This one was; my wife's DD, dog hauler, shopping cart, parts hauler, family truckster, race track viewing stadium, tow bitch, home improvement lugger, jump starting master, tool box and off roading animal.

You are missing the whole point

In reply to aussiesmg:

That car looks familiar...

I miss it dearly.

I like this thread

I will never be without a garage!

Own and drive a Honda.
Prefer an automatic over a manual in a given platform.
Get a tattoo on my face (which is attached to my head)
Give up eating red meat.

Own a P71.
Not like drinking beer.
Live in the North.
Vote for a Democrat or Republican for President.

Man I need to learn to read. I missed the whole NEVER bit first time round and started to write you must be berkeleying nuts reply. Luckily I re-read first.

Good list so far, I can't add much that isn't political so I'll keep quiet.

I will never deny my ability to do what I want, when I want.

That includes making a list of things that I cannot change.

FTFY

And this is where people differ- I've owned two corollas and am passively looking for an early 90's (post round body refresh) Camry- preferrably a wagon... even more preferrably a manual. Swank knows why.

insert hyperbolic declarative statement that I've probably already done
