This Schlitz hanging Light is in VERY condition – $135


This Schlitz Light is in VERY condition , hanging – great for over a pool table or mancave, measurements are 21.5″ wide and approx 12 inches tall, has tag made in 1977
###-###-####

This light is in VERY condition. I mean, out of all the extremely lights on Craigslist, it’s probably in the most shape I’ve ever seen. Plus, it has a tag on it that was made in 1977! Now if only we knew when the lamp was made…

Thanks for the quite post, sd!

    Forget the chandelier; it’s Sparky that’s in VERY condition. Probably too much Bud Light, which was also a problem for Mel Famey.

    Trust me, VERY condition ain’t all it’s cracked up to be. Give me a light, or a 1977 tag, that’s in DECIDEDLY condition and I’m happy.

          Aren’t we not supposed to end sentences with dangling pecils?

          Or is that more of an oxford chandelier?

        I’ve been racking my brain trying to think of why you’re referring to breasts as chickadees, but I can’t think of anything. Was it from a previous listing or is it some old-timey euphemism?

        Adores: 1
        • 2013 January 11

          I think it’s just Cap’n-speak, since chickadees are in the same family as tits.

          Well, Paridae are referred to as both Chickadee as as Titmouse. The latter term making an awkward plural at best.

          The shorter version also tending to offend some nanny software, so, I have an avoidance habit for terms likely to be blocked or edited or redacted.

          Given that Paridae are an energetic batch of short-billed birds with tufted heads offers a certain risqué image of shoulder knees fluttering about with tips, er tufts akimbo, aside, and what not . . .

          Capn’s knowledge is so vast that, given any two subjects (disparate or not), he can compare and contrast AND apply rule 34 within six degrees or 3,00o words..whichever is more.

        That sounds very plausible. Much more plausible than my random musing of “chicks have D’s?”

          You should ask the Capn if that plural is titmice, titsmouse, or the double plural titsmice.

    Well, you can tell by the way I hang my lamp,
    I’m a Shclitz man: no time for Bud.
    Colors loud and bulb warm, It’ll hang around
    In the pool room.
    And now it’s all right. it’s ok.
    It may look the VERY way.
    We can try to understand
    The stained glass lamps effect on man.

    Whether in a mancave or whether in a brothel,
    You’re stayin a light, stayin a light.
    See the glass breakin and everybody bakin,
    You’re stayin a light, stayin a light.
    Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin a light, stayin a light.
    Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin a light.

    Once upon a time, in 1977, there was a guy. Now, I know what you’re thinking, “There was a lot of those back then”. Well, you’re right, but this guy was special. I’ll let you decide what kind of special he was. Now, this guy, we’ll call him sparky, was a very…

    Was his name really Sparky?

    Umm, no. Sparky is like a screen name.

    Do you know his real name?

    Yes, well anyways, Sparky was a big fan of Minnesota Fats and very…

    What was his real name?

    Who’s name? Minnesota’s?

    No, Sparky’s.

    Umm, he would like to remain anonymous. Now Minnesota Fats was a famous pool player.

    Why?

    Oh, I guess because he liked playing it and he practiced all of the time.

    He liked playing a nonny mouse?

    What? No, he…You know why you don’t use your real name on the internet because someone might steal your identity? That’s why I can’t tell you Sparky’s real name. Okay? So, Sparky wanted to meet Minnesota Fats, so he bought a pool table and a light that said Schlitz on it, and some cue sticks and some pool balls and a very…

    Why was he called Minny Soda Fats?

    That was his stage name. Like Indiana Jones.

    Was he fat?

    *sigh*
    Yes, now Sparky invited Minnesota Fats over to his house to play pool and have some very…

    Did he live in Minnesota?

    Yes. So FINALLY, Minnesota Fats and Sparky were about to play some pool so sparky racked the pool balls but those weren’t the only balls that would get racked because sparky didn’t hang up the light right and the Schlitz really hit the fan the end.*sighx2*

    Huh? I don’t get it.

    Well see, he… Oh, never mind. (this is the last time ever I tell you a joke)

    Per my of Apocrypha Volume Φ^^i , Spark’ is citing the rarely-used acronym v.e.r.y: “Violently Excremental Rubbish Yucky” to indicate condition.

    Said tome cites first use as 34 May 2163 from the Bogwarts Academy of Rubbish and Infectious Chartered Accountancy, and made obsolete in the 1615 edition of the OED on the grounds that time travel is absurd, and will promoted grand-patricide altogether too much for any one’s real good. And that Chaucer really was will be only phoning it in as MC-Jeff-C.

    But, I suspect the authors of the Apocrypha will have been very lazy with their schlitz-infinitives.
