Graham Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 OK, I know this isn't science fiction or anime related, but I thought it was really funny, so I hope the Mods will let it stay for a while. This has to be the funniest ebay auction description I have ever read and so true as well. Read here. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone else find the humor in this quite reminicent of Douglas Adams? I was under the impression Graham was the site admin That description was priceless Some people will buy anything. Well, I'm sorta more like an honorary admin. I have the power, but Shawn, when he's around does most of the actual admining. As for the Mods, well they've just been given full licenses to kill and been let out of their cage. They're lean, mean wildmen that shoot first and ask questions later, so it pays to be polite. Be afraid, be very afraid. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel's Fury Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 You guys are right! It is somewhat funny. Why is this guy ranting about a useless piece of junk and why is he selling it? Instead of selling it on ebay, why doesn't he just sell it to a scrap yard? Is this guy brainless or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beltane70 Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 I didn't even think that was a real auction for a few moments. This auction is definitely a keeper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legioss Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 I sold, last week on ebay, a Rick Hunter MPC. Yes, someone actually PAID $50 for me to send them an MPC through the mail. Just when I thought actually getting paid for the MPC was amazing, this week someone else would rather have episodes of Robotech than $100! Next week I'm thinking I'll put Rick Hunter's toejam up and see how it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechamaniac Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 Why is this guy ranting about a useless piece of junk and why is he selling it? Instead of selling it on ebay, why doesn't he just sell it to a scrap yard? Is this guy brainless or what? He's not ranting about the useless piece of junk. He is ranting about the cretinous swine that seem to populate the internet in abundance, and most of the world as well. If I had to guess, I would say the auctioneer works in the Tech Support industry, and is used to having to explain what should be simple things, to the idiotic, unwashed masses that infest the Earth.

Blaine23 Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 That is awesome. One man's rant whilst selling a complete pile of crap. There are dumb people everywhere, though... I'm not sure why people expect the internet to be any different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly Rogers Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 That auction stopped being funny with all the added description the seller added. Sounds more like he's got a big and thick stick up his ass. He needs to get laid and relax a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
