Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[ill_omened]

Dear Ill Omened,

Your father and I have decided to purchase two shipping containers for storage purposes. We're just sorting out placement and contractors.

- mother dearest

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

How much stuff do they have that they need two shipping containers for storage?

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

Is two shipping containers a lot? Like are they a really big specific type of container? Because I am picturing generic plastic boxes.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

NAYRT, but I am picturing those giant boxes that they transport on SHIPS pr trains (essentially a semi-trailer). Mainly because of the "we're just sorting out placement and contractors" part.

NAYRT

"shipping container" to me means a transport container about the size of a boxcar on a train (they are attached to flatbed train cars for shipping)

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

Ayrt

Like the two anons above, I'm picturing those huge shipping containers that are transported on trains or ships.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[ill_omened]

To clarify, yes, as the other anons have suggested, really large.

This was the first hing I clarified, with a shocked "wait, you mean like the containers they use to transport goods on ships"?

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[ill_omened]

They're pretty much permanently hosting someone else who's a packrat, and look after a lot of animals I suppose?

But yes, I don't know either.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

What? Why not just rent storage space at one of those storage-mart type places?

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[ill_omened]

I guess they've got a decent amount of land, are looking for some long term solutions, and it's cheaper then you would expect/there's no required planning permission.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

I guess that makes more sense. I was thinking about it from my city-based background.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[kallanda_lee]

I sort of lose track, my family is sort of weird, especially if you count extended family and the bf's clan.

But, the thing that struck me as weird: my nephew is apparently now dating a girl with the same name as his younger sister (my niece). Like, I get that this can happen, but I think it would sort of weird me out if my love interest was named the same as a close relative. It's not even a really common name, either.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[inkdust]

My best friend had a crush on her dance partner who had the same name as her little brother and it never stopped weirding her out. Obviously not enough to stop liking him, but I think she was glad to get over him. It was a fairly common name, though.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

A friend of mine has a brother named Brian who married a girl called Jane. Jane has a brother named Brian who also married a girl called Jane. Life is weird!

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[diet_poison]

I don't know if I could. I mean, well, if they went by my brother's first name I'd have trouble, but at least my brother exclusively uses the full version of his first name, and it's not that common used that way, but the short version is much more common and I think if he just stuck with the short version it'd be ok.

My dad is another matter - both the short and full versions of his name are common, and it would be really weird for me.

Extended family would be somewhat less weird and I could probably handle it.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[shortysc22]

We have at least two of them, but that's because my dad keeps tons of spare parts around because he has so many types of work machines that he never knows what may break and he's got to have certain things pretty handy.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[iceyred]

My older brother went with his sugar mama to China to find a manufacturer for his clothing line. This is after they went to London and Turkey for that same reason. His last business plan read that his company will 'crush the competition.'

He's a dirtbag, so when this blows up in his face I'll have popcorn ready.

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[scrubber]

oh my god what the fuck

Re: weirdest thing your family have done recently

[(Anonymous)]

I have a friend whose mother has a few shipping containers worth of stuff on her rural property because she's moved house a lot in the last few years. This seems normal to me because of that.
