the ebay blog

I like ebay.
It allows me to buy crap I never knew exsisted or wanted.
It also allows me to get excited about packages arriving in the mail.
It also allows me further down the track to sell the stuff that I no longer want without having to deal with (many) fuckwits which is also an enjoyable experience in itself.
You see, since I was about 10 every so often when my parents got sick of the amount things we had collected over a year we'd either have a garage sale or a stall at the market, where in which one has to deal with people knocking at your door at 5am on a saturday to ask if the garage sale had started yet or whether or not you accept $5 for something that was marked $40, and would most probably see later in the day on their market stall marked at $150.
Ladies and gentlemen, these people are what we call vultures.
They prey on the naive and stupid purely for profit and pleasure
and they piss me off.
So I have no resolved that ebay = not dealing with vultures
therefore making ebay a member of the awesome pile and getting vultures a place in the fail room


til next time!

Time to look at the fail room and the awesome pile

Today I’m bringing back my two favourite things
The awesome pile and the fail room.
(hopefully they will be back every Friday)
So lets start with the Fail Room

*My upstairs neighbours whom play techno music until 3am at least 3 times a week. Manners; they don’t have them.

*I know this is somewhat late but it’s still a fail, but Brynne Groden‘s dress at the brownlow. IT was just plain WRONG

*the Cheese and Vegemite concoctions new name of “iSnack 2.0” more like iFail 2.0. It was pulled off the shelves within four days.

*Gaiaonline.com’s lotto, where in which they’ll give you 2 of the 5 winning numbers if you pay 98c (american) just so you can win virtual gold.
Who said you can’t make money off nothing?
Also considering that site is PG 13, why is there gambling allowed?



The awesome pile

*Mao’s Last Dancer being released as a movie. A brilliant adaptation from the book. Well acted and shot.

* Steve o’s  (Jackass fame) campaign to stop frog dissection in schools


Til next time!
