    no name fridge

    so i work in a real nice neighborhood in san francisco, like lots of multimillion dollar homes, currently like at least one house on every street is being remodeled. so i was cruising the dumpsters afterwork and then a song comes on the radio "IM THE SCRAPPPP MAN! HEAD DOWN IN YOU GARBAGE CAN!!!" and right then next to a construction dumpster i spot a pretty crappy fridge for a multip millionare, it was plain and white and even had a few scuffs on it, totally looked like something that belonged in a regular persons house. so yeah i loaded it into my truck and when i got home to check what i had, i could not find any label on it. so i cant really look it up and see what its worth



    also i laid it on its side so it will be at least a few days before i can check if it works but im pretty sure it does. my mom says she doesnt want me to store it at the house saying i wont get more than 30 bucks for it, but ****, i know i should get a cool hundred for it, thats like a whole days work at a job

    Could be a Roper brand. Roper makes cheap smaller affordable style fridges. They are owned by GE I believe.

    he means just turn your wheels into the curb so when and if it does go rolling it will hit the curb and stop, not go sailing into the pacific!
