Title: Dennis the menace looking to buy a new bicycle he can ill afford.
Post by: dane on January 24, 2013, 08:29:38 PM
He's had multiple posts about credit card debt, how it is affecting his life, AND posts about new bicycles and buying on that over-used credit card.  Now there is a plan to do it again.

I am thinking about buying my fantasy bike in the spring.
I'm considering one of these:

(links to several different bicycles snipped out)

Anyone have any insights into any if these, what I should look for?
Along comes a nay-sayer

2. I am looking forward to a new
long wheel base recumbent, but if I get it now I'd have to put it on a credit card.

I already have one LWB recumbent and a diamond frame bike (Transeo), and consider a credit card purchase (for another bicycle) at this time would be imprudent. Many people would agree with that (especially my wife.)

$8k - $10k bike for someone who can't even pay his bills?

Eight grand?!  Yeah, just put it on a credit card. ::)

I've had cars that I have paid less than that for.

I have three cars in my driveway that I did't pay $8000 for.

I remember my first bike. It was a hand me down that was used completely up. It didn't even have a seat so you had to ride it standing up so as not to have the pipe that was supposed to hold the seat poking you in the ass.

Come to think of it, if I still had that bike I could probably paint it like a rainbow and sell to a DUmmie male for several thousand dollars.

There's room for 7 cars, but my brother insists on parking his truck under the carport.

Think of the collection I could amass with room for seven cars.  That's the kind of stuff that would keep me up at night.

Just like no one needs more than 7 rounds to kill a deer, you don't need 7 cars.
We need to pass a law limiting garages to 3 or less.

No one needs an $8K bicycle. A Law should be passed against owning one.

Ahhh, maybe that's why I crashed my bike.  I paid $400 for mine, and I hated spending that much for it.  If I had one of them fancy $8K bikes, I wouldn't have crashed it, right?

Just kidding. We wouldn't do that. But if I did, I would put it in a parking garage.

This is the second time the lunatic has posted these same ridiculous bike links.

If it were any other DUmmy, it would be a Pam Dawson-ish attempt to imply he can afford such an extravagance while the other DUmmies can't.

But Dennis the Menace is a true lunatic, so he's trying to figure a way to rack up another $8K in unsecured credit.

He'll probably need to steal his mother's credit card.

Make sure we're at the top of the hill.  I love the look on a DUmmie's face when he looks like he/she/it's about to have a coronary from pedaling their worthless asses up the hill on flat tires.

Absolutely. If we throw an extra bag of cheetos up there, even GOBUCKS doesn't have to drag a chair up.

Eight thousand dollar bike ? Really ?

Primitive should pick up a 1978 Schwinn from a second hand store, a can of spray paint to 'pretty it up' and donate the rest of that money to charity where it will do some good.  [/DUmmymode]

Waaaait a sec.  Let's say that DTM makes it up the hill, on his banged-up rims . . . don't you want to see him go back down the hill again?  With a combo of the bent rims and a healthy dose of gravity, it could go on YouTube and be viral in a day or so.

Now that's hardly fair.

People have long marvelled over what a nice guy I am.

In fact, the second-nicest guy one could ever hope to meet.

DUmp democrats, without exception, are parasitic vermin.

Wishing them short, impoverished lives filled with misery is hardly an indicator of meanness.

It's just an appeal for justice.

There is no reason a non-professional biker would purchase a rig for $8000 dollars.
But that's why Denninmi is a retard. and anyone who would float him credit for that bike is a fool.

If Denninmi gets that bike on credit, he will claim it was stolen and sell it for a fraction of it's worth. Then he'll blow his ill gotten gains on drugs.

I still think he's got some devious plan to maximally max out all his credit cards, and then get committed to an insane asylum.

How's a credit card company to collect from someone in a fantasy hospital?

GOBUCKS isn't naturally mean. He's really nice as a little kitty cat. He's just been a little grouchy since people started using a photo of him in all those lolcat Grumpy cat pictures. Then to make matters worse Freeper started using one of the photos as his avatar/userpic.
