    I'd pay a lot of money to be introduced to the people who are bidding on that.

    It's just an entertaining way of soliciting donations; read down the ad to see where the money's going to...
    Pannier, 120rpm.
  • Not an email ad, so I guess I am shamelessly highjacking your thread (sorry), but I am reminded of the exchange that took place when a Aussie attempted to provide a picture of a spider in settlement of a bill
    Nobody told me we had a communication problem

  • The reviews of these gummy bears are certainly quite detailed!

    "As I type this review, I'm on the toilet, surrounded by my dearest family and friends and a priest. I'm not exactly sure whether this is an exorcism or if I'm getting my last rites read to me...What is occurring in my body right now may only be explained with the final 20 minutes of the movie Independence Day. The sweet gummy bears that I thought I had chewed and swallowed have now resurrected inside my bowels with a vengeance. The only thing that I can imagine they are doing is s***ting inside my digestive tract. Decomposed zombie gummy bear s***. This can't be all my s***. There's no way. That's not my s***. That's s*** from a supernatural entity living inside me. Literally nothing I've eaten in a dozen years could possibly turn my ass into a to-scale model of Mt. St. Helens, violently spewing what smells like a public bus filled with homeless people with fresh perms, in Mexico City at such a cyclic rate, that I'm worried the war veteran below me thinks he's storming Normandy again.
    Shame on everyone who handled these bears before they made it to me."

    And it's not just one, there's loads of them :shock:

  • Can't decide whether this is meant to be funny or not, given the price. Gotta be a joke, right?

    I've read a few of the reviews and was getting strange looks as I went from chuckling to myself to laughing out loud. I may have to buy some to give to 'friends'.
