All these years later, a little place down by the river don't sound so bad.

Legit, these days that's just waterfront #VanLife, y'know?

What do you do about an address? How do you keep your license and van registration?

[–] Darohan@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In my country the national postal service offers locked PO boxes for a very small fee, and it's fairly normal for even people who have a street address to use them to receive mail, so you could probably just do that. That said, I'm not personally partial to the "Van Life" so I haven't thought about it very deeply.

That’s a good point. I don’t believe you need a physical address to purchase a PO Box in the US either.

Getting your driver's licence can be a hassle though

What was a pathetic joke for gen X and boomers has Millenials and gen Z thinking, "is there a van that is river adjacent?, that's more the price range I'm looking for"

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

There's plenty of Boomers and Gen X thinking the same thing.

Hey remember that time on Letterman when cocaine had way too much Chris Farley?

[–] AceQuorthon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I love it, but what's going on?

[–] NexiusLobster@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

at first, I thought this was a sketch about a pedophile

Then I checked out SNL's greatest hits

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Down, down, down by the river.
