OT: funny auction on eBay

[PovertyRow]

I saw this earlier today from a link on another message board. It's making the rounds, just like the drunken sailor.

 

Why do you use "drunken sailor" in the pejorative?

OK, my "question for the seller" was just rejected. His e-mailbox must be full. I hope he can do the second chance offers until one of those legit buyers will take the dress. ---Sid

When it was at aboot $15K I think there was a legitimate bidder. Some rich guy that may have appreciated the humor in it. Some total jerkwads are playing around. That could have destroyed this guy's mini-windfall. I just e-mailed him to let him know that he could cancel and block certain bidders if he wanted to. ------Sid

 

Yeah, it's really sad now. $15,000,000 and climbing by the minute. Just a bunch of losers who want to play in a famous auction. He needs to figure out who is real, then do a lot of cancelling.

Probably his ex getting her final dig into him. BTW, i thought there were special requirements for bidding over $10,000 much less $15 million?

I'm not certain, but I think you have to put those in place before the auction starts, as when you have a very valuable item and each bid has to be verified. This guy started it at a buck.

 

It's now at $45,000,100,000 and climbing. But that number will change as soon as I post this message. It's changing by the second.

No - I mean "SUCH talk." Talk is the verb but TALK - unto itself - has no qualitative meaning. SUCH adds the quality to talk that I intended. So go back to your whatever and do whatever it is you do in your whatever and also please wish me luck at the upcoming Wonderon. (oh - provided a freebie spelling error if you want to take advantage of!)

Boy, Khaos, I pay you a compliment and you turn on me.

 

It's a work-related message board. Bunch of writers. Not comic-related at all.

 

The dress appears stuck at $99,999,999.00. I wonder if ebay doesn't go any higher? And it appears he did just cancel a bid. Maybe he'll cancel some more.

Don't you mean "Such TALK!"?

 

No - I mean "SUCH talk." Talk is the verb but TALK - unto itself - has no qualitative meaning. SUCH adds the quality to talk that I intended. So go back to your whatever and do whatever it is you do in your whatever and also please wish me luck at the upcoming Wonderon.

You also ended a sentence with a preposition.

Yes, I did. Why? Because these boards are more spoken than written. The text is typed by necessity. The thoughts are usally those which are spoken.

 

One must take into consideration context. Without proper context, much meaning may be lost.

 

PS - Nyah nyah!

Actually, I would disagree. In this case, I would be so bold as to say that the word "talk" is not functioning as a verb. It is clearly a noun. Regardless, your "emphasis" argument holds no water!

JOANNA! I would NEVER turn on you! Honestly. BTW, I have news. Exciting news.

A preposition is a terrible thing to end a sentence with.

Well, my dear Clarkerosity, you make a fine case for TALK as the noun and SUCH as an adjective. SO lettuce agree that TALK in this instance is a noun. I maintain that the NOUN talk and also the VERB talk are passive, and awaiting n\modifiers. And I believe that noun or verb, SUCH is the awaited modifier. So go and look for the freaking typo!

Are you talking about "Wonderon"? I mean, I'm not sure, I'm just... wonderon. BWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!

Yep - that be it - of COURSE it took a hint to have you get it - but nevermind about that. You missed my 2nd typo in the subsequent post. You be slipping like a 1983 Mazda RX-7 with no more juicew in the clutch's hydraulic cylinder!

 

Errr - have not seen any rejoibder re: the verb vs noun concept I offered.
