What weird stuff would you like to insure?

I'd like to insure my spot on the couch so that if my dog/kids take my favorite spot, I get money.

I would like to insure the stretch of Spring Street from Oakland to where it turns into HWY 32 so that if I get stuck behind someone going 15 mph I get money.

I would like to insure my favorite crossramp machine, right in front of the tv at the Y that plays Sportscenter, between 5 and 6 every morning. IF someone is on that machine I get money.

You?

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments I'd like to insure my Mickey Mantle autographed baseball. Not silly, that's serious.

I'd also like to insure my bedding from dog treats - my dog keeps hiding his damn treats in my bed and they stain the bedsheets or make them crumby. I should get money when he does that.

Sarah | 13814 comments I'd like to insure all the cute little restaurants and shops I like so they don't get eaten by chains. And all the green places I like so they don't get turned into chains or housing developments.

Some of the things above seem more like a question of "What would you Scotchgard?" than "What would you insure?" ALong the lines of Heidi's, I'd insure/scotchgard everything Bo hasn't peed on yet when he gets into his "my butt hurts/I shall forget I ever had training" mode.

RandomAnthony | 14536 comments Every now and then my seven year old yells "My butt is on fire!" and runs to the bathroom.

That is all.

That's exactly what Bo does, but he usually launches himself onto the nearest thing he isn't allowed on - a couch, a lap, a computer, etc. Luckily, this doesn't end with him going to the bathroom. He just shakes and looks pitiful.

I'd like to insure my set of Martika picture discs.

HAHAHAHAH that is AWESOME!! What are you feeding that poor child? (or maybe he/she? will just win an Oscar someday :)

Cambridge (hsquare) | 509 comments Oh yeah, and I would like to insure that one day a month when you actually "FEEL" thin, fit, totally energized, you are rocking your jeans and they are a bit loose and you are having a great hair day and the sun is shinning!

TheConsort | 3 comments I'd like to insure that I continue to keep my sense of humor and continue to misuse the American language.

Zen (zentea) | 515 comments Yay! The Consort has appeared!! I would like to insure his legs. They would look nice in the Utili-kilt form the other thread.

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments is this insure or ensure?


message 15: by Zen (new)

Zen (zentea) | 515 comments Unsure? To be sure you sure should look it up in the dictionary. Assuredly you will then feel reassured.


message 16: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) Oh sure.

Phoenix (phoenixapb) | 1619 comments I'd like to insure my thoughts, because sure as $h!t something or someone is going to come along and make me lose track of them. Those somethings and someones include, my kids, my husband, my evil neighbor, the fedex man, random religion pushers who are determined to save my so obviously damned soul, telemarketers, mysterious odors, shiny things, and my empty coffee mug. Of course with this many distractions, I would bank rupt the insurance companies inside of a week. But that's thier problem not mine.

On a different note. This is my first post, so the group rules bubble keeps popping up. I'd just like to say I have infused my spine with as much steel as I can muster and am prepared to recieve as much merciless mockery as you can dish. Because a) my spelling is usually atrocious b) I don't speak/write standard English, I speak American, and we all know how messed up that can be. c) Punctuation, I've heard of it. I know it's supposed to be important and there are rules to using it. None of those rules apply to me...and I'm very fond of.... d) Grammer....yeah, just mock me already I can take it.

Phil | 11837 comments Hi Alecia.

Thoughts are good to insure, as they're so easily lost track of.
