It Will Answer LIVE FISH OF INDIANA on the Phone

I'm just gonna post this AutoTrader ad for a 2001 Honda Insight in its entirety. There is really no good way to sum it up and I wouldn't want you to miss any of the details.
I got this car in Dec 2005 for my new wife 19 and she never got a drivers lic and divorced me in 2007. I never one time drove the car it was damaged and has a rebuilt title. It still needs work because we never complete fixed it. It needs airbags and seatbelts, ( about $500 used ) and the rear battery is not charging due to sitting. If you drive the car it might start charging or you can have a new battery placed in it. I have an extra battery a man sold me. I have an extra engine with 50,000 miles on it I will sell for $300 if u take the car $500 without the car I gave $900 for it. The car needs some paint on doghouse. It has very low mileage and would go 200,000 if fixed more. I got the car to take my cheater wife on trips, but her last trip was with another man so I just drive my new dodge truck & have no need for any car. You can drive the car without the battery working and it might then take charge if the engine forces the charge or the dealer has 144 Volt chargers to try charge it. It gets 61 MPG on the dash reader. It starts and runs good but I never drove it so you might want to tow it home. I am firm on the price. I am 60 years old and have a new wife 20 whos a nurse so she is away doing hospital work and we go no place. She is wife #6 not the one I got the car for. I am going to sell my farm an everything I do not need this car. I have $8000 invested in the car now and need $5000 as I still owe that on the car. No lien on title I got it on credit cards at 30 % interest is why I am selling to cut my interest down. Location is 17 miles west of Bloomington Indiana. Leave a message it will answer LIVE FISH OF INDIANA on the phone.

The term "doghouse" is based on vans. There is a massive hump inside the van between the front seats that can be removed for engine service. Well, when out that cover looks like a doghouse.
Now, people use it in reference to any engine coverings, or the engine bay itself.

This is just plain sad! Any 60 yr. old man who'd marry 19 & 20 yr old women (children really) deserves exactly what's happening here. For God's sake...just quietly sell the vehicle..you're embarrassing yourself here for such stupidity!

It's a Honda Insight, not a Civic.

Oh, and Genius Mike left a personal link... to digg.com

what's the point of leaving a personal link to a wide open site, and not a personal webpage?

Well, if I drink heavily for an extended period of time or suffer a series of concussions this all might make sense on the first read-thru. I imagine it would be like going on a binge and hearing Keith Richards talk and realizing I suddenly UNDERSTAND what he's saying.
-
Sure, there is an assortment of things that are understandable, but his dialogue is rambling and complex and unless you've read all posts, many people seem to have a degree of difficulty nailing down exactly what he wrote in its entirety.

Oh, and according to the Mensa test, I'm a genius although I don't think IQ tests are infallable.

There's enough info in this ad for someone to make a pretty cool film about this guy's life.

OMG, I am from Bloomington, and work with a girl from Spencer, IN... the place that is 17 miles west. We just about pissed ourselves laughing, then wanting to kill ourselves b/c of the kind of stereotype re-enforcement this brings. BTW, we found this courtesy of FARK. Thx for our daily dose of heritage.

Marrying a foreigner doesn't automatically give you a green card anymore because people were abusing it. Maybe he's quite hung for a 60-year-old...

He says it needs airbags. I suppose that's because the previous ones dumped him.

I think it's fairly obvious his wives are Filipinas who married him for a green card. That explains why she's so young and why she can't drive (poor people in the Philippines don't have any reason to get licenses).

There are many problems with how this was writen, but what the hell is wrong with the people who are unable to read.
It seems like most of the commentors need to work on thier comprehension skills.
not unpreposterous

He bought it on credit cards with 30% interest. If most else was funny, that just makes me cry. Poor ol' idjit.

"I think the best line read "It starts and runs good but I never drove it so you might want to tow it home." I almost died laughing."
Do you always die laughing when someone makes a good suggestion? Sure the engine starts and runs good, but do the brakes work? Is the suspension okay? Does it have any overheating problems? He hasn't driven it, so he isn't sure, so makes the rather safe and smart decision to recommend that the buyer tow it home to make sure it's safe to drive.

I have no idea why my comment posted twice, but it bears repeating: rednecks love meth.

They call it the doghouse because once you remove the motor, your dog has a nice place to raise a litter of pups. You wouldn't want them climbing around in the interior, b/c that's where your meth-making supplies are stored.
