Too Broke To Laugh

This is one of the worst sounds I have ever heard. No way she lived.

Does my butt look big?

I do too Sir-Mix-A-Lot, I do too.

A family of four in New Hampshire is trying to spend just $1,500 for their groceries, household items and personal care expenses for an entire year and detail their attempt in a blog.

To accomplish their goal Heather and Bourne Spooner have developed a new system of shopping that includes stockpiling foods and paying close attention to coupons and sales, MyFOXBoston.com reported.

“My first inclination was, wow, that’s not that much money,’” Bourne told MyFOXBoston.com. “But, hey, if we can do it it’ll save us a lot of money.”

And save they have. The couple said so far this year their average grocery bill is only $125 a month, MyFOXBoston.com reported.

In addition to clipping coupons, the Spooners shop at specific stores for certain items and have adjusted the way they plan meals.

“If I have chicken and ground beef and cucumbers and carrots and peppers that I need to use this week, then I’ll take all of that and I will look for recipes for those items,” Heather told MyFOXBoston.com.

The Spooners also have sworn off dining out until their wedding anniversary, on Dec. 28.

Since the start of the year I’ve spent about $350.00 on whisky, beer and cigars. What the fuck are these people trying to prove? Look at us everyone, we can save so much money, but have an absolutely boring, vice deprived life for an entire year. Great, sign me up.

People like this piss me off. It’s one thing if you are forced to do it, like no job, or you’re Corey Haim (I did like that show ‘The Two Coreys’ because Haim was a nut), but to do this on your own free will then you are an asshole. Those kids are going to hate their parents. Can you imagine the dialogue with the kids.

Mom can I go to the movies with my friends? No! Now get back to unraveling the two ply toilet paper and making two one ply rolls out of it.

Dad can we get McDonalds? No! Now if you’re not going to finish your milk, pour it back into the container before it goes sour.

Mom can I invite all my friends to my birthday party? Sure thing sweetie. We’ll play horseshoes with crazy grandpa, sing songs and all the kids will hate you because your party will be lame as hell, with no clowns, no fucking characters in stupid suits, no pizza and no soda.

You want to know what happens to kids that are forced to follow their parents into some self absorbed experiment?

Last night I hung out with my buddy BigFoot and we smoked a couple of excellent Perdomo Lot 23 cigars and drank some good whisky, which I can’t remember the name to save my life.

Oh, and ‘Goodies‘ are fantastic!
