1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Effin A brother ... it was mental health issues I've struggled with my whole life that lead me to move into a vehicle full time. Off and on again I probably lived on the streets for 8 years of my life over the 3+ decades I've been alive.. I considered myself "houseless" lol i never begged for money and I wouldn't take food as a handout unless I could exchange an odd job for it (rake a yard here, clean gutters out there) I wasn't above digging through trash for food (the amount of good food people throw away in public cans still makes me upset) I was able to keep a fulltime job for the most part but paranoia kept me from trusting "the system" enough to hold an apt or stay in one place too long

Most important lesson I can share with anyone that cares enough to read to this point..

you don't have to give a homeless person shit. You don't HAVE to feel bad or guilty for not sharing what you worked for with them. But when they wave their sign at you at least acknowledge you see them .. give a smile or a head nod ... nothing puts you deeper in the dirt then having everyone that walks past you act like you're invisible or not a real person

 

Yeah they should be for 3rz. I think i have like 2 of them. They are yours if @BartMaster1234 wants to ship them

 

You're a legend sir, I'll PM him now

 

He just told me that if you throw it in your refrigerator truck and give it to him the next time you're around he'll ship it for me

You got paypal? What beer do you prefer? I'll send you the funds for a sixer

 

Glad he’s ok. I’ve had to leave a couple places like that before and did the same thing

 

@Kwikvette is this true https://www.instagram.com/p/CC__Y7QhLbo/?igshid=nvot8ffckvo0

 

DM me and tyler so we can figure this out

 

Good, shows you care. Can we do burnouts for Dan's dad?

 

If it is I'm going for a police officer. (I been thinking about it more and more recently)

 

@BartMaster1234 drove the truck some and checked a couple things couldn’t find anything else obvious. Truck is running smooth wth. Oh well gonna drive it and see what all she’s got. Love this truck for real. People look at me crazy when I tell them I don’t want a brand new truck

 

We have to grab a beer sometime

But yeah that's what I mean about treating any homeless person less than a human being; we're social creatures. A simple interaction costs you nothing, and could go a long way for someone that is used to being ignored at every moment in their lives.

 

It won't be ready for Moab this year (if you even go or if there's even a trip still scheduled) but hopefully next year.

Worst case scenario I'll come to central CA to share a beer

 

People are gonna think I'm nuts but I think you'd be a great cop..... At least judging by what I know of you from here
I'd hate for you to have to deal with the BS cops have to deal with though

 

Yeah, I notice it more now, strangely enough. Most of it is newer Tacoma/4 Runner guys. For whatever reason, they get super cunty about "cutting up a classic."

Little kids fuckin love it though.

 

I can imagine with those guys lol I had buddies that were into ratrodding datsuns .... the amount of shit they got for it at car shows was inpressive! But they called themselves trailer trash chique so I think they got off on it


I'm gunna agree with the kids, they probably dig it cause the tires are twice their size it's flipping badass to see one!

 

Well I want to be a fish and game warden. But you need to be a cop for 5 years first. But thank you for saying that.

 

Oh that'd be hella cool actually

 

Are you serious?

 

The physical capabilities and requirements for law enforcement have always been low.

 

I could be trailer park Ricky drunk and still do that
