    Default Hello,

    My name is Dave and I have a farkeling problem. I've been uncontrollably farkling for over a year but I'm beginning to become rehabilitated. I have not farkled in over 30 hours.

    *In chorus* "HI DAVE!"

    I too, am a farkler. I started with small stuff, what could it hurt? A gremlin bell here, a sticker there. Little did I know that was the gateway farkles, leading to harder stuff. At first I thought I could control myself, you know, doing it in secret, playing dumb when someone asked where I got the stuff from. But then I just didn't care, I did it openly. I remember the first time I ordered real chrome... when I laid hands on it I just about had an orgasmic experience. We had our code words .... BRP, Givi, Spyderpops, Elka... "psst, hey buddy, wanna fan can?"

    The more farkle I get, the more I want. I need help, I'm afraid it'll eventually lead me to an RT Limited.

    Hi Dave. I too am a farkler. It started innocently. TricLed channel lights, Spyderpops blockoff plates. Then last September at Lamont's BBQ . I went wild with Spyderpops. The brakes were put on after that. Then, like others, the little white lies started. I needed some money for uh, umm, gas. I needed to help a buddy with bail money. But I was found out. The story about needing money for library dues didn't fly. I cracked, I admitted everything. At Spyderfest I was not allowed near vendor village by myself. I was allowed two farkles. The choices were maddening. I vacillated back and forth. Time was running out. I settled for Bajaron's sway bar and Reggies daytime LEDs. I wept with joy but at the same time I was saddened to see the mufflers, comfort seats, Lamontster road pegs, etc. sitting there. Their hearts broken because I didn't pick them. I have to go now...
