Are there other Jesus-themed mini-golf courses? I've never seen one, but the unintentional comedic possibilities are endless. Gutter Phoenix fucked around with this message at 16:35 on Mar 21, 2021 |

I would remind those people that "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image", but I'm pretty sure nobody going to The Holy Land Experience ever read that book

god i miss flea markets from 15-20 years+ ago. back when half the people there were just selling poo poo from their house and they never knew what it was. the last 2 or 3 I've been to have been minimum 50% poo poo that fell off the back of a truck in bulk, like aspirin and magnet bracelets and poo poo

Yea that thrill of finding some weird thing you were looking for and the thrill they feel at the sight of the weirdo they've been waiting for to give them cash for this junk.

i guess it depends on what youre in it for. i think the days of going to the flea market and getting well built wood furniture for next to nothing are gone, but i haven't really tried. in general they've gone from "quality interesting stuff" to "people buying and re-selling loving crap in bulk", at least here in the midwest

I remember as a kid in the 90s flea markets already being 75% knives and t shirts they obviously stole from an import container or maybe bought from a wholesaler. I guess the difference now is any body can just order it direct from Ali. Intense copyright infringement Tazmanian Devil energy at every booth.

The flea markets near me (Canada) are a mish-mash of poo poo since it's basically low-rent commercial space. It consists of: Stores that sell ebay knives and trinkets Stores that sell bongs and other weed paraphernalia Used CD and Video Game stores Dudes selling repaired laptops for 30% more than what you can get them elsewhere Old people selling a few old-ish things. Usually either ugly crystal and dolls or broken tools and poo poo no one wants. Old people selling lovely furniture and appliances Liquidation clothing Local businesses selling jerky, home-made incense, belts and whatever else. And the highlight for me is the little kiosk that sells bannock

There is a localish flea market here in MA that has your typical tons of Ali stuff, knives, nachos and vhs tapes. Outside however is a different story - they sell a weekend pass for random people and it's a gold mine of esoteric poo poo. I've purchased everything from framed prints of ancient Japanese books about rural life to giant metal breaker bars. Haven't been since covid so who knows but it was extremely america for MA, where it's usually just racist and not folksy.

Palpek posted:Here's a really chill, slow documentary on the history of burgers that I just remembered seeing all those years ago. I don't know if it's just simple conversations the author has with the diner owners or the lazy pace of the film but it conveys the sort of authentic American town atmosphere very well. I really enjoyed it and maybe you will too. All sorts of interesting burgers in it too. At the 10:40 mark, is that a massive slathering of mayo on the underside of the top bun?
