INAD - Time Machine

Found by: Chris on Joplin Craigslist

free time machine! may or may not work…

you pick up

INAD - Time Machine

It will take you to a grim future, in which you are burdened by rusty, inefficient appliances.

Unless you use it to go back in time, to before your fateful decision (“hey, I could use a beer fridge!”) was made. Good luck, McFly.

    After having read Long Dark Teatime of the Soul, no way I’m picking up an old suspicious refrigerator .

    Whoever posted this on CL knows their movie trivia.

    The original idea for the time machine in the Back to the Future movies was to use a refrigerator, not a Delorean. They decided to change it because they didn’t want kids emulating it and getting locked inside.

      Thank you. I didn’t know that about “Back to the Future” and appreciate it when folks like you take the time to fill in the blanks.

    lol that’s great!

  4. Seibee says:

    Is it a time machine ’cause it holds so many beers you lose enture days?

    • Seibee says:

      Or even ‘entire’.

        Three or four beers and even I wouldn’t care that you made a typo. I actually didn’t even notice it until you pointed it out, and I haven’t had any alcohol in months. Thank you for correcting yourself, though =)

    It is a time machine. Climb inside and close the door, and someone might find you in a few years.

    Perfect for getting rid of neighborhood children you don’t like. Just stuff ‘em in there, and let time and asphyxiation do the rest. When the cops come looking, just say the last you saw them, they were playing hide-and-seek with some kids you didn’t know. Probably will only work once.

    You could put a cat inside with some poisonous gas…wait, that has been done. Or will it?

    I need a time machine. I’m going ahead to next week, get the lottery numbers then come back to today and pick them. Yep. Perfect plan.

    • Anna Rexia says:

      By coming back to current time from the future, you would be creating a Grandfather Paradox. Please be careful not to step on any bugs when you return ;)

  9. Look! It’s a hillbilly TARDIS! I wonder if it has more room for holding beer on the inside than on the outside?

    Either that or the Doctor finally got that pesky chameleon circuit fixed…

    Apparently this item was purchased from Jeffrey Dahmer’s estate sale.

  12. jackiesayshuh says:

    sparrow if that is true that means the Doctor has been coming to Alabama a lot.

    It can take you an hour into the future in only 60 minutes!

  14. Steve says:

    Dude! That fridge is from the 50s! In fact it looks like it has the old-fashioned type of door latch that clicks shut and then can’t be opened from the inside! An excellent thing to own if you want to trap and asphyxiate children.

    Its possible it still works, in some feeble fashion, so long as it still has freon left. Those deadly, innefficient old fridges were very durable.
