So my guess is he's seen some of the other creative sellers on ebay lately and decided to have a go at it . . . only he's not clever which is why this auction doesn't work. People are stupid sometimes. Someone needs to e-mail him and tell him to get a life.

Its a cry for attention with a little cash thrown in. Give it a little time and they SHOULD stop it. My hope is that "MY LIFE" is sold for $10.00 and someone actually takes it.

Looks to me like the guy had a bad day and just decided to throw that on there to vent. What gets me is that he's actually had 12 bids on it....so who's dumber and more pathetic, him or the bidders?

I asked the dude to post a picture to confirm that he's ugly. He emailed me saying "picture posted". He is in fact ugly.

I checked the site again. I agree the guy is ugly. I can't believe that over 7000 have visted the site. I think there have been 500+ increase since I first visted the site only a few hours ago.

Isn't there ebay moderators? Like ebay is a pretty big company don't you think if someone found that they'd delete it? That was the dumbest thing I've read all week.

hmm... sad cry for attention. He's probably some 30 years old, and his parents finally kicked him outta the house (that or they gave up and packed up and left one day when he was in the shower) and he's going through depression.


looser.
