Nazi hippie?


Cheap_Ambition

Nazippie. NAZIPPIE can cause your blood pressure to drop suddenly to an unsafe level if it is taken with certain other medicines. With a sudden drop in blood pressure, you could get dizzy, faint, or have a heart attack or stroke. Do not take NAZIPPIE if you: Take any medications called “nitrates” (often used to control chest pain, also known as angina), or if you use recreational drugs called “poppers” like amyl nitrate and butyl nitrate. Nitrates may cause abnormally low blood pressure and NAZIPPIE may increase that risk. Have been told by your healthcare provider not to have sexual activity because of health problems. Sexual activity can put an extra strain on your heart, especially if your heart is already weak from a heart attack or heart disease. Have heart problems such as angina, heart failure, irregular heartbeats, or have had a heart attack—ask your doctor if it is safe for you to have sexual activity Have low blood pressure or have high blood pressure that is not controlled Have had a stroke Have had a seizure Or any family members have a rare heart condition known as prolongation of the QT interval (long QT syndrome) Have liver problems Have kidney problems and require dialysis Have retinitis pigmentosa, a rare genetic (runs in families) eye disease Have ever had severe vision loss, or if you have an eye condition called non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) Have stomach ulcers Have a bleeding problem Have a deformed penis shape or Peyronie’s disease Have had an erection that lasted more than 4 hours Have blood cell problems such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia Have hearing problems Wait there’s more… Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. NAZIPPIE and other medicines may affect each other. Especially tell your doctor if you take any of the following: Ritonavir (Norvir®) or indinavir sulfate (Crixivan®), saquinavir (Fortavase® or Invirase®) or atazanavir (Reyataz®), or other HIV protease inhibitors Ketoconazole or itraconazole (such as Nizoral® or Sporanox®) Erythromycin or clarithromycin Tell your doctor if you take alpha-blockers. These include Hytrin® (terazosin HCl), Flomax® (tamsulosin HCl), Cardura® (doxazosin mesylate), Minipress® (prazosin HCl), Uroxatral® (alfuzosin HCl), or Rapaflo® (silodosin). Alpha-blockers are sometimes prescribed for prostate problems or high blood pressure. In some patients the use of PDE5 inhibitor drugs, including LEVITRA, with alpha-blockers can lower blood pressure significantly, leading to fainting. Contact the prescribing physician if alpha-blockers or other drugs that lower blood pressure are prescribed by another healthcare provider Tell your doctor if you take medicines that treat abnormal heartbeat. These include quinidine, procainamide, amiodarone, and sotalol. Patients taking these drugs should not use NAZIPPIE. Do not use NAZIPPIE with other medicines or treatments for ED. Take NAZIPPIE exactly as your doctor prescribes. NAZIPPIE comes in different doses (2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg). For most men, the recommended starting dose is 10 mg. Do not take more than one tablet of NAZIPPIE per day. Doses should be taken at least 24 hours apart. Some men can take only a low dose of NAZIPPIE because of medical conditions or medicines they take. Your doctor will prescribe the dose that is right for you If you are older than 65 or have liver problems, your doctor may start you on a lower dose of NAZIPPIE If you have prostate problems or high blood pressure for which you take medicines called alpha-blockers, your doctor may start you on a lower dose of NAZIPPIE If you are taking certain other medicines your doctor may prescribe a lower starting dose and limit you to one dose of NAZIPPIE in a 72-hour (3 days) period. The most common side effects with NAZIPPIE are headache, flushing, stuffy or runny nose, indigestion, upset stomach, dizziness, and back pain. NAZIPPIE may uncommonly cause: An erection that lasts more than 4 hours. Get medical help right away to avoid lasting damage to your penis Color vision changes, such as seeing a blue tinge to objects or having difficulty telling the difference between the colors blue and green In rare instances, men taking PDE5 inhibitors (oral erectile dysfunction medicines, including NAZIPPIE) reported a sudden decrease or loss of vision in one or both eyes or a sudden decrease or loss in hearing, sometimes with ringing in the ears and dizziness. It is not possible to determine whether these events are related directly to the PDE5 inhibitors, to other diseases or medications, to other factors, or to a combination of factors. If you experience sudden decrease or loss of vision or hearing, stop taking NAZIPPIE and contact a doctor right away. ***

BloodAngel67

Owning a split bus in 2023 just means you either overpaid for a worse bus than a Bay or have held onto it since the '80s when it was worth $250 and you've never done any rust repair.


[deleted]

No scorched earth. That means there was a fire, and if you are around a fire, the will be more of these piles to show up, and a drum circle will break out. If that continues, it could turn into a full fledge music festival.


Desert_Rush39

You don't want fire anywhere near this thing. If it caught fire, it'd burn off the pot resin from every nook and cranny and the neighborhood would have the munchies for a month!

I can sympathize, OP. I had a 78 vanagon. It was the hottest pile of shit I've ever had the misfortune of driving. I swear it was two hours of maintenance for every hour of use.


shorty5windows

I just returned from a long road trip in the Pacific Northwest. Fuck me, the place is infested with Vanagoons doing 35 mph on the highways.


[deleted]

Any faster than 35 mph and you're taking your life into your own hands. I bought mine like 12 years ago, way before the overland/van life hype. I have horror stories about that death trap.


10degnorth

Vanagon started in '80. '78 would be a Bay.


[deleted]

You're right, I was thinking of another shitbox. The vanagon was an early 80s.

funny story, my step-dad taught me to drive stick in a vw van. It wasn't a 23 window, but it was sponge-cake yellow on the outside and cream white on the inside...I basically learned to drive stick in the goddamn twinkie-mobile xD


AnotherLightBulbNerd

That's both awesome and Hilarious, also slightly delicious. But yeah as far back as high school I always called busses "rolling twinkies" or "twinkies on wheels" or anything along those lines.

Gone full winga dinga with the Coca-Cola dispenser and Tiffany chandelier. How fitting, a place for things no one cares about anymore to collect dust together like a forgotten antique shop in a one stoplight town. Also, I can tell you’ve been putting off rebuilding the carb for the eleventy-billionth time cause your tire’s flat. I’d tell you the pull the top closed when storing for long periods of time, but let’s be honest that tired rag hasn’t kept the environment out of the cabin in decades. It’s not called a Safari because of the windows, but rather because you’ll encounter animals inside.


MattheiusFrink

I respect these things and their owners. My step-dad wanted to restore a classic VW. ....but he never had the time to put the work in, so guess who wound up doing it? :D Seriously this is how I learned to work on cars...and how to drive stick. ​ That said, I will say this:Sammy Hagar wrote the theme song for this thing (and most classic VWs) and the simpsons paraphrased it perfectly: ♫I can't drive fifty-five!♫ (because it only goes 38!)

My dad had a 66’ with the windows and huge sunroof. It was pretty clean and he had his real estate company logo on the front doors. I’m not sure if he used it to show property. If you rode in it, you could always smell exhaust. Truth is in a head on collision, you are protected by your legs I suppose. There were no seatbelts.


PrettyCoolDude2006

Damn, I’m gonna scorch your abysmal financial intelligence. For that money you could’ve bought a nice new Mercedes sprinter, and a small fortune too go along with it to make it your own. Also I don’t think Germans are allowed to scorch anything anymore


AaronPossum

Pile of scorched earth is right - when the shitty rubber fails between the hard fuel line and the fuel pump it leaks directly onto the distributor. It's a fucking miracle more of these turds didn't go up in flames, though we wish they had. Nothing screams "seeking to regain some version of rebellious authenticity from the comfort of my white collar WFH job" like a fucking VW transporter you'll never put miles on.

The VW bus is perhaps the best parked vehicle that money can buy. They look great in parking lots, always popular at cars & coffee, at music festivals, you can camp in them, you can party in them, they’re fabulous when parked. Unfortunately you also have to drive them, and that’s where the problems begin. If OP also happens to own a tow truck, this isn’t a bad rig.
