Attn: Anyone who has asked me to list something on Ebay for them.
I don't mind doing it, at all. But what I do mind is when someone bids on their own auction because they decide at the last minute that the price isn't high enough. And this happens, a lot. When you do this, I will not only be left with the insertion fees, but also a percentage fee of your fantastically high fake bid. And you will forget to pay me back, because everyone does. I CAN end the auction early, easy as pie, bids or not, I can end it. This is the way to do it, and I'm only a phone call away.

And while I'm on a . I'm sure no one on this forum is guilty of it, but there are so many drivers who are deathly afraid to drive in the rain.
Hey! It's not ice moron! Why do you think your tires have grooves in them?

Usually it's the other way around, people driving the same in the rain as in the dry, and poof, pile themselves into barriers and other cars.
