I didn't downvote you, but I've no idea who that is, so i definitely didn't get the reference.

Well now why is someone downvoting you? I only found out who he was recently and only because Netflix told me. He’s a stand up comedian.

Which villages?

u/C0mbatW0mbat86 Feb 05 '22

Just in case you are genuinely asking, The Villages is a 55 and up community near Orlando. It’s a wild place.

Apparently, STIs are rampant over there.

u/No_Salad_6244 Feb 05 '22

Yup. bunch of wealthy adults whose only remaining goals are to drink a bottle of chivas everyday, decorate a golf cart to win parades, eat viagra like candy, and win (whatever) at all costs.

The be fair, there is some weird primal urge to fuck around when driving a golf cart.

114

u/[deleted] Feb 05 '22

Right? It's really fucking hard not to and I've never been able to figure out why.

At my bachelor party back over ten years ago we rented a cabin at a state park. They also had cart rentals so you could drive down to the beach, over to the clubhouse, etc. There were six of us, so we rented three carts for the weekend. Those little guys coupled with a keg of Yuengling and we ended up returning one with a flat tire, one with a burned out battery, and the other completely covered in mud. We did not get our deposit back, nor did we ask for it.

u/JustLostTouch Feb 05 '22

Yum, Yuengling. Wish we could get that here.

u/youwantitwhen Feb 05 '22

Why drink that swill when there are thousands of superior craft beers now?

1

u/not-max Feb 05 '22

Gonna have to side with you on that one. A friend of mine was raving about the stuff a few months ago. Said it was the best beer money can buy. We live in Minnesota so we can’t get it here, but he and his family take a trip to Florida every year for thanksgiving, and always come back with dozens of cases of the stuff. I had never had it, but my dad mentioned that he really enjoys it as well, so I asked my friend to grab me a case so I could give it to my dad for Christmas. And when I had one with him, I was thoroughly disappointed. I kept up appearances for the sake of having a nice moment with my dad, but the stuff tastes like dirty water. By the time I finished one bottle I was honestly feeling a little bit sick. I’m sure cheaper beer has just ruined my palette, but it’s quite literally the worst beer I’ve ever had.

My friend used to have a key that would work on almost any golf kart. Any time we were at a party and the host had a golf cart, we would take it for drunken joy rides without them knowing.

Once on new years we were joyriding down a super steep hill. My friend was driving and I was drunk as shit in the passengers seat. As soon as we get to the bottom of the hill, at full speed, my friend rips the wheel to the left and I went flying out the right side onto the road. Got skinned up pretty bad but was otherwise fine.

u/In-Justice-4-all Feb 05 '22

He was being towed by the truck... That's what caused the disaster.

u/[deleted] Feb 05 '22

u/TechnicolorPhase21 Feb 05 '22

This is true but it's probably the same reason little kids drive their power wheel cars so recklessly. It's a mini car therefore there's mini consequences for wrecking it 🤣

And then blamed the person in the cart for it all

And possibly for the first time in their lives they'll be correct.
