Re: Am I a Dork

On our way back from the lake last week, we passed a drive-in theater. I told the wife and kids that we should pull in. We could all sit in the boat and watch the movie.:D Yes, I may be a dork, but I'm a happy dork.

If you actually hitch up the boat solely to go to the drive up, then you sir are a real man of genious!!

Re: Am I a Dork

I do it all the time. I do the engine noise's & everything. I want the "retards" that live around me to think I'm a nut bag. This way they never bother me with stupid crap. I don't even know what their names are, & don't care. So I say, Jack up the show, make them think your crazy. It pay's off in the long run.......

You are the biggest dork around..and probably go to Wheenie Hut Juniors for a steamed wheenie ...(sponge Bob Square Pants)

Great, now I really feel the dork-ness upon me, I know this reference VERY well.

In my only defense I do have a 7 year old daughter. Phew, I hope I am safe!!!

Re: Am I a Dork

LOL love this thread.

Call a friend, have them back their boat in next to yours, tie em off together, and throw a party. HAHA

.

We've actually done this. Didn't call them over though. We all got off the river, went to my place for the ritual "after boating party". My buddy parked his pontoon and my other bud put his bowrider next to it. I thought, heck ya! Pulled mine on the other side of the toon and partied in the yard the rest of the night.:D

We could not decide if we were rednecks or hillbillies, but now I know, we're just dorks who need to join "land boaters annonymous":p

I'm Thad and I have a problem.:rolleyes:

Captain of the Driveway. Driveway Captains Unite and invite those who would call us dorks to join us.

Sorry I'm not a Driveway Captain yet but will be hopefully in about a week and a half.

Yes I too can hear the song playing in my head now. OH to have my next beer MMMM it is going to taste so good especially while sitting in my boat. Where I am i cant have any.

Guess I'm a dork too!!!!

But hey, I've never shot anyone - so I guess it is a viable relaxation technique.

Re: Am I a Dork

I want to be a dork. Hope to join the society of dorks in a month or so when I get my boat. Promise I will "land boat" at least twice a week.

Re: Am I a Dork

So practicing with the cast-net off of the bow, on to the grass is considered normal here ?

I will have to get my brother to sit at the helm so I can yell at him to speed up and slow down.

Heck yes, sign me up !

Re: Am I a Dork

On a more serious note - I call that puttering. As in, sitting in your boat, letting your mind wander while looking at something - the best ideas will come to mind about a way to fix something, or a new reno, or a way to spend more money!

It's like, every time I spend time in my garage (hiding from my wife), I usually find a better way to put something away, or tackle something that's been sitting on my bench collecting dusty.

I _love_ sitting in my boat.

Which reminds me, I need to look for a bimini that fits my tower....
