Default ttdude's stupid Friday poll #25: car or house

I've been thinking a lot about money, expenses, cost of living, etc. lately. Probably because today is my last day at my job (I quit because it is sucks-wet-farts-out-of-dead-pigeons bad). So, of course, that influences the poll! There was also the bit where I met a couple who paid more for their TT than their house...

Which is higher, your monthly payment for the TT or your rent/mortgage?

A) TT
B) Rent/mortgage
C) Paid off the TT, so rent/mortgage
D) Paid off the house, so TT
E) Live with my parents, so the TT
F) Paid off both (you can all hate me now)
G) Rahul (he's back, baby!)

Self-response: B, but it's damn close

Last week's results: Thank you all so very much for grossing me out with your tales of smooshed things. I need to remember not to leave an opening for such ickiness. And I think Lloyd of the Rings would have to be the winner. I mean, c'mon, a freakin' anvil?!? Not gross, but it certainly surprised me the most!

Vincent: "What you mean 'walk the earth'?"
ttdude: "You know, like Kane in 'Kung Fu'...go places...meet people...get in adventures..."
Vincent: "For how long?"
ttdude: "As long as it takes."
Vincent: "As long as it takes for what?"
ttdude: "Until God puts me where he wants me to be."
Vincent: "So you decided to be a bum?"
