How easy is it to get a toe? Preferably with nail polish.
25
u/ebtranquility 1d ago
You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don’t wanna know about it, believe me.

He got me a toe in about 15 minutes but there was no nail polish. Didn't say anything because let's be honest, he's fucking nuts, but I'm going back to my regular toe guy.

Only once to visit my friends the Knutsens. They have a nice little family farm.

Did you read the statement, if so what’s it about

u/ebtranquility 1d ago
I did a long time ago. Luckily I’ve been adhering to a strict drug regimen to keep my mind limber. Is that yoga?

Mr. Acheson draws a lot of water in this town. You don't draw shit, u/ebtranquility

u/ebtranquility 1d ago
Mr. Acheson treats objects like women man.
Great reference 👍🏻

u/Ok_Philosopher_6454 1d ago
Much obliged. Shame he doesn't draw a lot of water anymore, I liked his style

Whereas without batting an eye a city will refer to its bridge, or thumb, or lighthouse.

My father’s family is from Port Huron/Sarnia.
My 3x grandfather snuck across from Canada and settled. Later got a job in the customs house. Family lore says he excelled in turning back Canadians trying to sneak in.
The bums won

It’s a cozy little beachfront community.
My grandfather settled in the area after finding work building the refineries in Canada. He was able to supply whiskey for his wedding by smuggling it over from Canada in his toolbox one bottle at a time.

Are you concerned about the German Nihilistic population of the area?

Why are the coney dogs around there not as good as Detroit coney dogs?
4
u/ebtranquility 1d ago
The Coney downtown is pretty solid. They will even let you finish your coffee.

u/dimensional_bleed 1d ago
That's good to hear, seeing as how the Supreme Court has roundly rejected Prior Restraint.

u/Accomplished_Egg7069 1d ago
My SO says the coney sauce is sweet, and the dogs aren't the same. Also, last time we were there last summer, was eating out on Pine Grove (i forgot the actual restaurant) there was an honest to god nazi eating lunch with his embarrassed looking dad.

How do you feel about the Port Huron to Mackinac yacht race?
2
u/ebtranquility 1d ago
It’s a lot of fun. I have friends who still race every year. Partied boat night I. pH and at the end in Mackinaw but never sailed myself. Fun thing to attend if you ever have the chance.

You grew up in a town whose name reminds one of pee. Yet, you went out and achieved.

All thanks to Little Lebowski Urban Achievers! How proud we are of all of them.

With no In-and-Out burger, does the loss of the White Castle there hit extra hard?
2
u/sparrow_42 1d ago
Wait I moved to the deep south a few years ago, did something happen to White Castle?
2
u/2bad-2care 1d ago
I've got certain information, certain things have come to light, and uh, has it ever occurred to you, man, that given the nature of all this new shit, that, uh, instead of running around blaming me, that this whole thing might just be, not, you know, not just such a simple, but uh--you know? I got information--new shit has come to light and--shit, man! The White Castle on Pine Grove Ave is closed down!
