What's one thing you can't live without?

I was 16 so just barely.
I remember seeing gas at that price but not yet buying it. Originally Posted by discreetgent

Glad those days are over, I love it now at $2.50 average, not to low and not to fucking high, as long as it is in a stable window frame, then it is workable for every one. But if you do not like it, you have the choice of supply and demand.

Back on track. In the context of the original question I must say that I have nothing. Or there is nothing.

Now family as previously stated of course but that's not what she asked.

Clearly the:

"Monster session with my ATF" Totally hedonistic luxury that is impossible to replicate in normal life.

Sex is like chocolate...once you have it and have it good...you can never do without it.

I kind of liked it high like $3.50 - 4 a gallon in 2008. It gave everyone something in common to bitch about. Young, old. Rich, poor, Black, White. Gay, Straight. Repub, Dem. etc. If you wanted to bond with someone all you had to say was something like, "Can you believe it just cost me ^&*^%% $120 to fill up my Tahoe?"

And I loved the bullshit out it gave people from doing things, like "You know I don't want to drive down the street to the movies/game/theatre/restaurant. Gas prices, you know!"

Yeah, I know, but Continental actually carried a piano and someone to play it. Of course, this was back when gas was around 50 cents a gallon. Originally Posted by pjorourke

Pack a cigs was .50¢ (and I struggled to come up with that) for me in high school (in 8th or 9th grade). I quit 31 years ago (quitting cigs is one of the harder addicitons to break). Originally Posted by SR Only

I'd be utterly miserable if there weren't any little furry things around to love and play with. Then again, my animals are incredibly awesome.

This is my first post here in this section, so hello to all and I hope you don’t mind me jumping in every now and then.

The one thing that I cannot live without would have to be my dog. I consider him my luxury. He is a Rottweiler and I have found that they are not easy dogs to have, as most places will not rent to you because they consider them aggressive bread. It is funny though because my dog is the biggest baby ever and has never been aggressive, but that is a whole other conversation lol.

I found a place 4 years ago when I moved here to Nashville that would allow me to live here with him and I stay here mainly for that reason. It is a very nice apartment community therefore I do have to pay a higher rent than I would elsewhere. Although I have considered moving because of what I have to pay in the increased rent I would not be allowed to take him with me and there is just no way I could give him up. He is like my child and I cannot imagine seeing his adorable face every day when I wake up or once I walk through the door from a long day.
