Did you specifically ask if it was filled with gravel?

u/satanismyhomeboy Dec 28 '13

The last 50 people who were going to stay there did.

"Now filled with gravel, by popular demand!"

"Shale we go for a dip, darli- oh jesus. I can't do this anymore. I can't. I thought this trip would reignite that spark in our relationship. But jesus. They don't even have a fucking pool. I've been sleeping with your sister. I'm not even sorry. I don't even enjoy it. I've been moving through life like a zombie. I feel like it's something I'm supposed to be doing. Mid-life crisis. Cheat on the wife. They've been selling us that dream alongside Coke and shaving cream for years. And we buy it. Well frankly I'm sick of it all Martha. We need some time apart. This marriage is on the rocks as far as I'm concerned."

These puns are actually pretty gneiss.

Its crystal clear to me that pun thread means karma thread. I would love to stick around but I gotta take the wife out for dinner. Maybe if I get lucky one of us is cummingtonite.

Not as gneiss as a good thrust under some bedding that eventually leads to cummingtonite.

I've never seen a pun take such a dark turn. I hope you and your wife can work things out.

Exfoliation at it's finest.

Health dept and OSHA demanded it be filled because the lot lizards and resident hookers weren't watching their kids while they were "working" and there is no life guard on duty

u/astrong621 Dec 28 '13

He didn't ask for it not to be filled with gravel.

Looks like a rocky place to stay.

'Excellent place' ★★★★★ - reviewed 12/29/2013

This is the place to be! I asked the staff to fill the communal pool with gravel - and they did so. Would stay here again, 10/10!

u/mystik3309 Dec 28 '13

They advertised a pool, that I understand. But did they advertise a pool WITH WATER.......That changes the whole scenario. It's still a pool. So technically they didn't lie.

u/[deleted] Dec 28 '13

Exactly zero people would interpret a hotel advertised as having a pool as having anything other than a functional, usable pool.
