LMAO real "good news" ebay auction

I guess maybe I'm just weird, but for some reason, I fail, utterly and completely, to see anything that bears the slightest resemblance to humor in that auction.

Stupidity on a absolutely monumental scale, yes - PLENTY of that - but not so much as a trace of even the most insignificant scrap of humor.

Hmmm... Now that I think about it, maybe that's why I dont have any use for the so-called "humor" of "The Mark & Brian Show" and similar on the radio, or 95+% of the so called "comedy" shows on TV either... I just can't find a viewing angle that allows "stupid" to be mistaken for "funny".

Oh well...

Jim, Thanks for the link. It sure brightened up my day!. The guy running the auction has a great sense of humor. ERS

Sorry Don, I too am with Jim on this one. I thought it was cute. The guy is witty and he doesn't take himself too seriously.

BTW - I don't watch the sit-coms either. I consider most of them stupid, as well as an insult to men and fathers.

Because I don't watch TV at all, I cannot comment on the presence or absence of humor in those shows.

I do know that the ebay auction got a good laugh out of me. Especially the comments about Vin Diesel's acting career!

Jim

Anything that needs a laugh track can't be very funny.

Ah! Another closet watchamacallem (that doesn't watch TV) and has recently decided to "come out"!!

Welcome to da club. :-)oooooooo

A recent article quoted some research showing that for each extra hour a day that you watch TV, your chances of contracting alzheimer's increases by approximately 30%

AKA, TV makes you stupid!

I think it's been common knowledge on this ng that my household has had no live TV feed for about 16 years. I've commented on it many times, and I know there's a large number who feel likewise here.

Understand that we do have a TV, hooked up to a DVD/VCR player. So we do on occasion kick back and watch a film or something.

But most network/cable TV has is awful. So I don't miss it hardly at all. I do know that my daughter (coincidentally turning 16 this year...) does know how to read tolerably well.

Shitcoms? NEVER!

Hey, whassamatta you? I happen to LIKE Diesel's films. All of 'em. And his women co-stars: Asia Argento, Michelle Rodriguez, Eva Mendes, Rhada Mitchell, Jordana Brewster have all been TOTAL hotties!

Good auction prose 'n 'pics, BTW.
