Re: XBox 360</p>

<p>how much more life does this xbox have left?</p>

<p>how many hours did you use it from purchase date? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<hr />

<p>From: Me <br />
To: eBay member <br />
Re: XBox 360</p>

<p>Actually, I haven't used it very frequently at all. Dozens of hours probably, certainly not hundreds.</p>

<hr />

<p>From: eBay member <br />
To: Me <br />
Re: XBox 360</p>

<p>really, so when are you going to relist it for a lower price?</p>

<hr />

<p>Oh my God. Never, that's when. I'd rather keep it than sell it for less. Especially to a douchebag like yourself.</p>

<p>Seriously, all of a sudden everyone on eBay is fucking crazy. Hey, my bike sold today so I can't be totally pissed, but I keep getting these asanine questions from people offering me hundreds of dollars less than my asking price, or being a douche and waiting till an auction ends then asking me when I'm relisting it for less (like the genius above), etc.</p>

<p>I'm not selling it to you, people! Fuck off! Seriously! Go search the classifieds in your stupid local newspaper if you want crazy deals. The stuff I'm selling is worth money, it's not half broken china I found in the attic.</p>

<p>Go fuck yourselves.</p>

<p>(p.s. I'm feeling very hateful today, sorry.)</p>

  <p>I notice you didn't get any bids on your Macbook.</p>

<p>Would you take $800?</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Considering that it is a couple of weeks old and still selling new for $999 (that's after a recent price downgrade by Apple) and includes a couple of hundred dollars worth of upgrades, um, <strong>NO</strong>.</p>

<p>Fuck off! Everybody forgot how to eBay! It's not a fucking flea market, folks!</p>

            <description><![CDATA[ <blockquote>
  <p>are you saying that you are selling an used bike for $25 less than a new one on-line?</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Well, actually, I'm selling "a used bike" not "an used bike". Regardless (or maybe for you <em>irregardless</em>),  if you actually read my entire post you would also see that I'm including approx $140 of upgrades with my bike, which are not in the online model, smarty.</p>

<p>So what I'm really saying is, you're not allowed to buy my bike.</p>

<p>Jesus.</p>

            <description><![CDATA[ <p><code>Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise without your prior consent. I got your contact from a professional database found on the internet.</code></p>

<p><code>I have been contacted by an erstwhile freedom fighter who now wishes to channel his money into productive ventures instead of war; he is looking at real estate property and commodities as a thought but opened to any professional advice on investment you might propose.</code></p>

<p><code>I will relay other pertinent information as soon as I hear from you.</code></p>

<p><code>Regards,</code></p>

<p>Wow, Tunde, it is a shame that all my money is tied up with that Nigerian prince guy, otherwise I totally would be into pursuing real estate investments with you.</p>

            <description><![CDATA[ <p>Seriously.</p>

<p>I want someone who's not out of his/her mind (therefore, preferably someone I know in real life) to explain to me what the possible benefit is of <a href="http://dantobindantobin.com/blog/?p=3823">a colonic</a>. I think it sounds like a stupid idea that some asshole made up and got "healthy" people to buy into.</p>

<p>No thanks. I'd rather drown in a vat of peanut butter. And if you know how I feel about peanut butter, you'll be impressed.</p>

            <title>Crazies out today?</title>
            <link>http://jennmartinelli.net/weblog/Crazies/thecraziesareout</link>
            <description><![CDATA[ <p>Are the crazies out in full force today? I'm not sure yet but so far I submit the following evidence:</p>

<ol>
<li>A too-long conversation I couldn't escape from (because I was trapped in an elevator) with a courier at my building about how I have great skin so I shouldn't start smoking (I don't think skin is the primary health concern related to smoking last time I checked) and about how he wished we would call earlier in the morning for our packages going to one particular office because he goes there every morning by 9. Um, yeah, but what if we don't have a package going there till 10? Then we probably can't call you and have you pick it up at 8, right? Crazy.</li>
<li>A random delivery guy in a cheese truck honked and waved at me. When I made a face and gesture like, <em>Why are you honking at me, I don't know you?</em> he did it again. Great, I have a cheese truck boyfriend.</li>
<li>Nobody in CVS knew how to stand in line. I mean no one. It was like I had just been transported to Germany or something. (Germans don't know how to stand in line. Seriously.)</li>
</ol>
