So I see this car...



Recommended Posts

Although I did see one that made me giggle for ages, KEPT. There was a blonde bimbo driving it, and yes, it was a convertable BMW driving down Toorak Rd which is a swanky Melbourne area full of bottle blonde over botoxed over tanned over nipped and tucked older women and men with trophy wives.

Many years ago I saw a powder pink vehicle coming towards me on the road and as I was snorting in derision I saw that it had vanity plates that said "I WON IT". My snort turned into a guffaw!

Does anyone else remember a show called Bumpter Stumpers, where the strategy was to figure out as many plates as possible? (Or something like that).

I remember some game show where the object was to decipher as many as possible....mid 80's or so I think.

I do not have any on my car...however since they have already been mentioned...we have a wooden sign hanging on the bar above the gate on our horse trailer....it says "Don't B Whatcha C". We have had many, many offers for it. Instead we just hung it with sturdier chain!!!

***topic hijack***

Wheetsin wasn't it you that had your band surgery on Ash Wednesday? I warned someone (who is having surgery tomorrow) about the "dirty" nurses earlier, ---I always have to smile over it!!!

Ayuh, that was me. Nurse Manson and Nurse Infection, as my husband now refers to them. :doh:

I saw a great one yesterday. It had a female cartoonish figure and underneath it said, "Girls Kick Butt". I like that a LOT.

My hubby has a support ribbon that says "I support road head".

I find it ironic that he supports something he is never going to get.

ROTFL.... :) Does he know that??? lol....

He should by now...I think he just wants to look cool in front of his friends. He used to have one on his old car that said "Official Pimpmobile". He got pulled over once and the cop just said he wanted a closer look at the owner of the pimpmobile and ask him where he got the sticker.

This was my first venture over to Rants and Raves.

I am so glad because Wheetsin, that was the biggest laugh I have had all year, thank you.

You are a witty writer, that was F U N N Y!!!!

And hey, someone's German Shepard may be smarter than my honour roll student, but can he play the violin?....:guess

Wheetsin - it was Bumper Stumpers! I love that show, my mom and I watched it all the time. I often wonder though why people get vanity plates that no one else can understand. Isn't the point to make a statement - not much of a statement if it doesn't make any sense.

I have to mention a couple of buttons we purchased recently:

Picture of Jesus with light around him that says "Look Busy, Jesus is coming" (probably funnier because of my non-belief :-).)

Picture of George Bush that says "A village in Texas has lost their Idiot"

I have seen "Jesus saves sinners. Then he redeems them for valuable prizes."

Recently have seen:

"Honk if you voted for Bush. It's the big button in the middle of your steering wheel."

"Despite this car, I am not a lesbian."

Always liked the "Visualize Whirled Peas" and "Stop the Violins".

Had a shirt once that came in a sticker too that said, "Stop Plate Tectonics!"

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
