Feb 16 2009Digging Is Fun!: Backyard Toy Time Capsule
If there's one thing my grandpappy taught me it's how to make gin in the bathtub. And, if there's another, it's how to bury your money in coffee cans. So he would probably scoff at paying $20 for the Backyard Safari Underground Time Capsule. And, to make matters worse, you're only supposed to bury the POS six inches under the ground so you can still fill it with more garbage via the fake rock screw-off lid. Hey kids, I've got news for you: if I see a fake rock in your yard, I'm digging that shit up and stealing your G.I. Joes and love letters from Susie Q Heartbreak. And, if it turns out to just be a house key hiding rock, I'm letting myself in and kicking your ass! Happy President's Day!
Underground Time Capsule perfect for hiding things in the dirt [dvice]

I'm going to do a safari through Olivia Munn's backyard if you know what I mean. Aaaannndd I think you do. If not, I'm talking about anal.

@1 yeah lame unless you're 15. GW also said shit, so I'm going to shit in a coffee can & bury it out back.

ooo I love the rock- great so you can hide where you buried your time capsule from people.

Not sure where I'd have room since my backyard is littered with shallow graves filled with girl scou-*
I mean filled with... uh... dandelions... yeah.

Sounds like this was intended for teenagers to be able to hide their pot. Good luck with that, stoners.

@8
See, now THAT is a good idea.

@8
Except how do you get it back out w/o digging the whole thing back up. I mean 6"...who the hell wants to dig 6" while stoned.....
Now seeing how it's a 6" tube I'm depositing something else. That way when I'm sterile I can still have spawnlings and pollute the world....ha!

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadows are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max Told the Governor of Minnesota he was bleeding, and the governor replied he didn't have time to bleed. So Max shot a bunch of grenades up onto the cliff, and asked the gov, if he had time to duck.

@16 IS such a liar, it's so F!@*C#%N false that I commented back here just to show how obviously WRONG YOU ARE!!!

Every day we're standing in a time capsule
Racing down a river from the past
Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel
Facing down the future coming fast

The best thing about this is that it's called "Backyard Safari." The new definition of safari: burying a bunch of junk in a plastic fire hydrant.
15. Brendan Frasers Hair - February 16, 2009 8:35 PM
I think it's a great idea seeing that you can dig it up in the future and tell everyone back then in the 2000s people walked on 2 legs and thought the world was going to end in 2012.

I have a time capsule for you. It is called a zip-loc bag. Plus, it is freakin cheap. Can your time capsule prevent freezer burn. I think not.

What happens when you run over the fake rock with the lawnmower? Or break your toes trying to kick it out of the way to avoid running over it with the lawnmower...?

I don't care about coffee cans or the time machine but I really appreciate to share with us the technique for how to make gin in the bathtub. Just joking :))
By the way, good stuff :)
20. Angela - February 16, 2009 11:35 PM
this seems like an excellent way to lose your time capsule

takes "Dick in a Box" to a whole 'nuther level.
22. hedgehog - February 17, 2009 12:51 AM
That fake rock looks like it was made by a dog with digestive problems.
23. Al Dracone - February 17, 2009 1:14 AM
Damn! My son pooped in the bathtub again! Oh well... skittles and vodka it is. What were we talking about here? Oh, yeah! Now, about that... Hint: if you have a freaking rock in the middle of your lawn, any idiot would know there is something buried underneath it.
24. Confused Geek - February 17, 2009 2:34 AM
Me Granpappy said. . . . . Sell the bathtub and buy the Gin, Skittles and Vodka and if you see a funny rock in the middle of a garden, pop it into the closest windshield and steal the cigarette lighter. . . . .
Now, I will go and put on my sombrero, lies down under a tree and feed my donkeys.
25. Amanda - February 17, 2009 6:12 AM
I want one.
26. softlicious - February 17, 2009 7:25 AM
I would put my "top" in it, which is in secret backwards language that only "srenost" understand. Hint: try reading the words backwards :) I would also put some crakers in there, without 'ers'. I hope no law enforcement agencies come here to Geekologie to read our secret messages in secret backwards language. My house at 6'o clock like usual then? I'm gona open my capsule. Cops never look under rocks! Cops will never look under rocks for rocks, keep your rocks under rocks. Cops will never look under crakers for crack, therfore keep your crack in your crackers box. Cops will never look for pot inside pottery, so keep your pot in your vase. When the cops come to your kitchen looking for your stuff, remember not to spill the beans, just tell'em you ain't got no stuff.

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.
GW used this to bury the words we're not allowed to say anymore...
