Seriously anyone have anything? I have a desk and a table, in my house right now, Cory has seen it. My bed is two blankets on the floor, my back is killing me. Yeah, so if anyone has a couch, or a bed frame they want to get rid of, hit me up. On that note, why the hell are mattress so expensive?

cody · 2006-07-24, 02:58 PM

Beds cost loot...unless you can find one used, but that's kind of freaky.

Bob Danger · 2006-07-24, 03:12 PM

Yeah buying a used mattress is shady, its just like buying a used car, you know someone has done it in the back seat, you just try not to think about it, but with a mattress its a billion times worse.

Kevin M · 2006-07-24, 03:13 PM

Inflatable beds make great temporary relief while you look for a deal on a cheap mattress.

I have an inflatable matress you can borrow until you find a cardboard box or an old shoe or something.

that's why thy are expensive, they know you don't want to buy a used one, so you have to buy new. I've been putting off buying a new mattress for 4 years.

"FRUNITURE"? Really?

Bob, you are easily the most consistant bad speller/typo-er on the board. Seriously, are you high 90% of the time or what?

It's so consistantly bad, it's becoming endearing.

MattR · 2006-07-24, 04:03 PM

Bobby, I have a really nice mattress and box spring I can sell you. I bought it for the guest bedroom, but I really don't need it, it has very low miles. Someone stole my bedframe, but maybe he'll give it up. PM me.

Dean · 2006-07-24, 04:09 PM

I slept on a queen sized airbed in college for 2 years. They are great, and cheap. Better than dorm mattresses for sure. Walmart for like $20-30...

Used waterbeds are also a good deal usually, and since the bladder is vinyl, you can wash it down with whatever chemicals you heart desires.

sti deede · 2006-07-24, 06:46 PM

I bought a queen sized pillow top mattress from JCPenny's for under 600. Don't know what your budget is, but I was amazed how cheap I could get a bed for. It's a really comfortable bed too.

M3n2c3 · 2006-07-24, 07:08 PM

Not trying to step on Matt's offer, but I can give a +1 to the $30 air mattress idea. We used one for a few weeks after moving back from Korea. They're really quite acceptable.

English is a messed up language. Constant and consistent are from the same origin, and if you say "con-sis-tant" no one could even tell you mispronounced it. Who put a g-damn "e" in there anyway? I swear it's just to mess w/ people that don't read the dictionary every night.

M3n2c3 · 2006-07-24, 07:34 PM

Is typo-er even a word?

Hint: No.

Nope, "typo" is a word. "-er" is a suffix.

M3n2c3 · 2006-07-24, 09:47 PM

And of course the combination doesn't really work because the primary use of "-er" denotes action and usually requires use of a verb. The word "typo" itself is a noun.

Well, lemme help you out:

There, now you can feel free to apply the -er suffix. Typoer, one who typos.

yeah, I know. Blame the schools not me. All four years of high school, my english teachers said that spelling was not necessary for todays youth, because the computers can do it for you, so they didn't teach it.

Dude, you should have been reading and writing in English for like 8 years before you got to high school... so it's not all their fault.

Hmm, well then perhaps you should have taken it upon yourself to learn how to write properly. If you can't write well, people won't take you seriously in any job/endeavour that involves written communication.

No Thanks

Bob Danger · 2006-07-25, 02:54 PM

Besides it's not really that bad, is it? So I misspell a couple of words now and then, most of the time it's because I'm rushing. I'm not so much a bad speller, but a bad typer.
