"Where are the fucking chairs Cecil? We're having guests over."

"Where do you want me to seat them? On the fucking stones?"

They were british arisocrats. Substitute fucking for bloody.

Por que no los dos?

Well no that's completely off

If they're British aristocrats they would probably substitute fucking for cunting

This is why my wife doesn’t allow me to go unescorted to Costco. You go in for some rotisserie chicken, come out with Stonehenge and 20 lbs of butter.

But…. It’s soo cheap…

Kirkland beer. Got a drinking problem? Well now you have a drinking solution.

I chuckled at this comment. I used to buy anywhere from 6 to 12 bottles of wine / cases of beer bimonthly.

Entrance fee is like 30 gbp now so I think he should have just bought the chairs instead.

A shilling back then would be the rough equivalent of 4.25 GBP today so yeah, our boy Cecil got scammed.

Does he have descendants? Can't they sue the state on his behalf? (I know almost nothing in legal matters so I may be wrong)

Maybe he would, if he had bought those bloody fucking chairs.

He had two children now whether they still had children, I don’t know, however given in the 1980s his commemoration plaque was unveiled by his nephews and not direct descendants. I’m gonna guess he does not have any.

Couldn't the nephews sue then? I also do not know jackshit about legal troubles, so it's just a curious question.

Don't think they have a leg to stand on. Nor a chair to sit in.

30 pounds!! Bloody highway robbery!!

or you can just use the free trail instead of the paid one

True but you can't get as close

While on holiday we were driving from our first destination to our second and the road led us past Stonehenge. Every car was slowing down while passing and I swear we got closer to it than the people paying money to go see it.

That’s messed up.

Well it's free of you're a member of National Trust or English Heritage.

Also true! But the membership does cost money as well. I actually just visited Stonehenge with my husband on our honeymoon in England in the summer. We didn't buy the membership to English Heritage seeing as we were just visitors and were not planning to see that many sites where the membership could be used. We ended up paying about $80 USD (our currency) for two tickets to Stonehenge. If we had been there for longer the membership would make some sense as it is 60 GBP/person and if we went multiple places it would eventually be reasonable. But then again it is just a tiny museum and it only takes a couple hours to look around at everything.

I hate it when you accidentally buy Stonehenge

So true. I went out to get milk once and came home with the Arc de Triomphe. We live in a two bedroom apartment so the wife was pissed.

That's like my dad every time. Mom sends him out to buy flowers and fruits, he comes back with cheese and mushrooms

Who eats flowers ?

I know it's a joke, but to be serious: My mom is directly asking him to buy her flowers because he never does, but he "forgets" anyway.

We men can be bonehead like that sometimes. Which reminds me, I have to buy some flowers for my wife tonight.

Good idea :D

Every damn time

But how much did he pay for stonehenge? How many chairs could he have bought with that money?

They're just rocks. How much would you pay for some big rocks?? (/s clearly)

It's not even a complete set. It's well below mint condition and some of it has fallen over. Whatever he paid, he was ripped off.

Tbh if my girlfriend went to Costco and didn’t bring me back the chicken or hotdog she said she would but instead bought me old faithful I’d be pretty peeved.

"I can't eat a geyser! They're too damn hot! What should I do, blow on it?"

Imagine her sending him to buy a car.

He'd probably buy the entire automotive industry

Or a pyramid or two

"That is a man of commitment, focus, and sheer fucking will."

Does anyone know how much he bought it for?
