YSaC, Vol. 1745: I’ll take two!

Now, normally we try to conceal where a post was made, in order to protect the stupid. However in this case, that would seem to involve removing half of the post:

free (vancouver)

Seriously. That’s the entire post. And there’s an obvious joke to be made: This person is giving away free Vancouvers! Wakka Wakka Wakka!

Well, actually, it seems they ARE giving away free Vancouvers – since this wasn’t posted in Vancouver at all.

Really. It was posted in an entirely different, non-Vancouver city. So… there you are. Vancouvers for everyone!

Thanks for the post, Stephanie!

    I’ve never used a vancouver. My van doesn’t seem to need one, unlike my wood splitter.

    Hmm, with sparkii-speeling, there’s probably a dufus out there wondering why no one has collected the custom-sewn cover for their van . . .

    It was actually a political call to free Vancouver, but the oppressors censored it. Or something. That’s my story, and you can’t prove me wrong.

    As an avid Boston Bruins fan, there’s quite a bit I could say about “free vancouvers”… but in the interest of civility I’ll just say no thanks.

    I assumed it was an announcement of a Free (swimming anime) spin off set in Vancouver.

    They may take my Vancouver, but they’ll never take my hockey, eh!

    Sparky: I would love a Vancouver, but your post leaves so many questions unanswered. Do you deliver, or is it local pickup only? Is it a full-size Vancouver or one of those cheesy miniature replicas? Have you made any provision for what might happen if you run out of free Vancouvers before all the customers have got one? (See There Are Not Any Monkeys.)

      We also don’t know if it is a foreign Vancouver or a domestic Vancouver. We don’t need any language barriers with our Vancouvers because assembly instructions are difficult enough when in your native language. (Unless you are a guy and don’t read the instructions)

    You know, there are days when it just seems the internet is a waste of time, money, and computer equipment. The original name of the settlement where Vancouver sits today was called Gastown. Gastown, where men are men, and lumberjacks rarely press wild flowers.

    Around here, we call it The Couve. Yeah. It’s not hip or trendy like Portlandia. It’s The Couve and it’s free. Free of the commercialism, need to be cutting edge, bike lanes and mass transit, barristas and creative classism. Come to The Couve…and be free. Yeah.

    Free Vancouver, with purchase of second Vancouver of equal or greater value.

    I think they’re giving away free van covers. That fix doesn’t help though, ’cause there’s no contact info.

    I used to have a free Vancouver just like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

    With all of the racket caused by vancouver, I bet it gets caught again before the day is over.

      5 OBOs and a #2 meat Gerbert says it’ll get caught in less than an hour.

    OT-

    So I went to a job interview the other day. I was interviewed by the office manager. I had never worked in an office environment before and I let him know that. He said it wasn’t a problem. He also said it was a 9 to 5 job. He wanted me to start the next day, but I should come in 15 minutes early so he could introduce me to the people I’d be working with. He told me not to be late. I told him I was very punctual. The next day I drove to my new job and I was very excited about it. I was going to get there right on time. I walked through the door at exactly at 4:36….

    Does this story need a better punch line?

    The ad was just confirming that nothing free in Vancouver.
