Poll: Man bulldozes house so the Bank couldn't get it

[GameOverGoblin]

That guy is the BAMF of the day, at least in my book!

I love your avatar btw. The Dilbert show was hilarious. I'm surprised it was canceled after only 2 seasons.

Dilbert had a tv show?
Damn my not living in the USA!
I'm so going to view it via youtube or whatever!

Your pic actually comes from the show, not the comic strip. I'm surprised you didn't know that.

My avatar is selfdrawn, based on some Anime girl
You mean the one from Clunkiest Turtle.

Yep. Sorry about that. My bad for not double checking and making an ass of myself.

I also apologize to the Escapist for the double post. Looks like it wasn't a double post after all. Whew!

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

That's just awesome.

Stupid, sure. But still awesome.

Stupid awesome.

I foresee that his legal battles have only just begun and by destroying the property he has achieved bugger all but the destruction of something of negotiable worth.

This story reminds me of the guy from Austin, TX last week who flew a plane into the IRS building there. Along with his long letter, talking about how the government can't get a hold of his life now.

At least no one was hurt this time around.

 

[JEBWrench]

Well he'll still have to pay for it, so in fact he has just destroyed a load of his own assets.

From the sounds of it, bankruptcy is his only option, (besides the aforementioned trope), so hey, why not go all out?

In fact, depending on state laws, as long as he left the foundation, he's good to go. Repossession of the house clears the debt. His credit is still borked, but hey, it already was.

Yeah, that guy was in such dire straits, what with owning his own plane and all.

No, not the dreaded TVTropes loop! No! Nooooooo!

Love the clip! lol

I'd normally say "fuck the bank".
So today I'm just going to agree with... Fuck the bank.. Plain and simple.
The look on the bank mens faces is far more worth than 1-2 years of jail.

 

[JanatUrlich]

I lol'd. I'd totally bulldoze my house though.

 

[JEBWrench]

I'd normally say "fuck the bank".

*googles*

Nope, no jail time. He'll just be indebted the difference in the sale value of the house-less property to what the remaining sum on the mortgage is. Similar to here.

Oddly enough, if he pays off the full value before its sold, he can keep the houseless property. Either way, bankruptcy wins!

 

[More Fun To Compute]

Americans, and British people, are fine with authoritarianism that verges on fascism right up to point where they get kicked out of their homes. This is why the opening of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy works so well that a zany, anarchic tale can be so popular with people who are more conservative.

Really? AWESOME No jail time woo! I'm gonna go out and plow down my house as well. And see how they like it. Ha-haa... Wait, who "they"?

Oh right, I'm not bankrupt... God damnit, now I wish I was. It sucks having no problems :/

 

[Dublin Solo]

I really wonder what the guy inside the bulldozer was thinking. Did it occur to him that this was kinda weird?

Anyway, the guy (the one who hired the bulldozer guy) is pretty stupid in my books. I'm pretty sure I could find something more stupid to do, but until I can think of something, he wins the Olympics.

Count your blessings dude...
Bad stuff always happens to good people.
And it usually does when and how you least expect it.

Now I'm thinking: if he ordered the Bulldozer from a payphone and paid in cash whilst disguised...
He could have claimed not to know anything about it?

But insurance might pay the bank in that case, defeating his point.

*ponder*

That would possibly help offset the remaining sum on the loan.

This man may be a genius. A genius with a BULLDOZER.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

There's definitely money to be made in this fine scheme. Behold, the Bulldozing Mafia and its Horde of Bulldozing Bulldozers.

EDIT: Replace "it's" with "its", before a grammar Nazi shows up.

FOR FUCKS SAKE CHILDREN!!!

putting a fucking joke answer into a poll is a retarded, attention grabbing, unfunny douchebag action which wastes everyones time and makes people take the author less seriously.

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH WITH A IRRELEVANT ANSWER??

does it make you laugh at yourself?? are you that fucking depressed??

jesus this annoys me, pardon me if this sounds a bit angry, this is the FORTH FUCKING POLL i have seen today with a retarded answer stuck in it so the author can think he is a fucking comedian.

It's mandatory to include it where I live, sorry

 

[JEBWrench]

The irrelevant answer accomplishes just as much as a relevant answer. In fact, it may drive more people to actually read what the poll is about, as a hint of irrelevancy often can pique interest.
