I'll be sure to outbid him tonite when I get back from the bar.

:roflmao:

 

You have no idea.

 

Nice Shoes! (thumbs u

Roy always says "Chicks dig the shoes." I just never understood what he meant. Now I know what type ladies he was referring to.

And for those who think I'm over reacting... he bid under my account AND said he didn't realize he had typed the extra zero's

How many guys on here probably zeroed in on that statement and thought :cloud9:

 

Watch it! You could start a massive fan club. :baiting:

Well... for all of you who restrained yourselves from bidding until the very end... Thank You! A little guilt goes a long way in getting projects done on the "Honey Do" list and with having a three day weekend... the hubby got A LOT of projects done. :acclaim:

 

Another thank you goes out to the anonymous bidder who decided to trump the drunken beer goggle bid! (worship)

 

And a classic comeback for all the guys... the hubby promptly put the spin on the situation that since he has "now saved $450 - how could I possibly begrudge him a $300 comic book he's been eyeing. He's still saving $150!"

I think you'll find that that one comes straight from the 'Wives Who Have Been Denied Yet Another New Pair Of Shoes' playbook. :baiting:

I'll bet the hubby secretly rebid to get himself out of a potential doghouse situation because it will be cheaper for him in the long run.

Now he just has to resell it.

 

:o

Conspiracy theory!

 

Do not give him ideas or feed him beer. It will ruin the natural balance of the marital system :devil:

Ok, I'm sure many people have fallen to the perils of late night infomercials... but this time around my husband fell for the Comiclink auction trap... and bid after a few too many beers. doh!

 

So, he is in the doghouse, possibly neutered... and for whomever he outbid on the Crime Illustrated #1, I can promise he will NOT be bidding any higher. Please feel free to outbid him ;)

 

And for those who think I'm over reacting... he bid under my account AND said he didn't realize he had typed the extra zero's... this may save your relationship - please learn from his mistake :makepoint:

 

Neutering him won't do you any good.

 

It just reinforces bad comic collecting behavior.

I'm assuming you're talking from experience? :eek:

Absolutely.

 

Comic geekdom and impotence go hand in hand (excuse the non sequitur). Didn't you know that?

 

A sure sign of this is when a comic geek insists on using multiple pictures of a completely inaccessible and beautiful babe as their signature line. :grin:

As opposed to scans of his prized slabbed books, or a link to his uber-cool registry set? hm

 

Yeah, I can see why you'd classify him as a geek.

I wouldn't call her inaccessible per se. More than likely, the jail time and subsequent divorce may be more of a price than he's willing to pay.
