I'm shocked that you'd think that any amount of money, even 60k, would get me to compromise my civic duty.
40k is only a years salary for me so idk why they thought that would be anywhere near enough.
This 20k would have really helped me out, but alas, morals.
Somebody suggested that I’d get some money, but I never did. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m late for an appointment at the Ferrari dealership.
This was all beautiful, thank you everyone that pulled through
You’re beautiful.
120k is barely a down payment on a Ferrari.
Definitely not true for a sweet used one
Yeah, but you said going to the Ferrari dealer, not going to Craigslist.
Imagine your surprise when you realize you can buy a used Ferrari at a dealership
A Ferrari dealer is not like a Toyota dealer. They are like 99% new or special order, and the other 1% that is used is all current model year with very low miles, or older but very rare and expensive.
The odds of getting a Ferrari for $120k from a Ferrari dealer is probably slimmer than your chances of being given the bag with $120k to begin with.
Oh, so it’s possible though?
That’s crazy bro tell me more
apparently our 20k increments played well on Boing Boing . We did it guys!
Finally, we’re famous.
How do they expect to sway a juror for only $5k?
