Traveling Pants, Sign ‘em and sell ‘em

What a great idea! Buy a pair of pants, and put em up on eBay with your signature on them. Then the buyer will also sign them and resell them. As the number of signatures increases so does the value of the pants.

What a great investment. The theory seems sound. You buy these pants and are almost guaranteed to sell them for a little bit more.

I am just curious. Do you get a set added value from your signature, or is it on some kind of exponential scale? Or maybe they will never be worth more than 30 bucks, and its a huge scam!

Want to add your signature?

Autographed Deodorant

Oh man, I am really excited about this auction. I can't believe I finally have the chance to get an autograph from… who? Who is this little treasured autographed by? No body knows!

The seller claims that if you buy this item, it will help get women to sleep with you. Hrm… " Hello miss, want to come home and see my used stick of deodorant? It is autographed!" I don't know, just does not really seem like a winning pick up line to me.

The concept of a used stick of deodorant is pretty gross. I could understand if it was Angelina Jolie's used deodorant. She is hot, and famous. Then you could put the deodorant right up on the shelf with your jar of her air! But some random guy's deodorant, with or without his signature, is pretty crazy!!

What if he smelled really bad, then this thing would be really awful!

Little yellow soda lid

The little yellow soda lid, or LYSL for short, is a classic piece of Americana. This particular one is one of the few surviving members of the LYSL secret brotherhood for world domination… don't be the one to let this little beauty slip through your fingers.

As an added bonus, beside this extremely valuable soda lid, you will also be receiving a free jewelry box. Its little and has flower print on it. What's inside the jewelery box? No body knows… you will have to bid to find out.

Ok, seriously people. I have to know! Why would you bid on this LYSL? Why? I just don't get it. I wish that these people who so dearly wish to waste their money would come and give it to me instead of bidding on these crazy eBay items! If you know why they do it, please email me the answer.

Did you lose the lid to your soda bottle? Want to replace it?

Angelina Jolie’s Air?

The Dunce is just blown away. This has to be some kind of joke, right? I had thought I'd seen it all, but the amount of money being thrown at this jar of celebrity air is amazing. Guess I underestimated the amount of value a celebrity can add to a jar of air, if they might have exhaled a few molecules that found their way into that jar.

This particular volume of air was captured at the premiere for Mr. and Mrs. Both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie might have added a few of their own carbon dioxide molecules to it. Maybe that is why its so valuable, after all one jar with air from two celebrities is 100 times better than air from just one celebrity.

Maybe its the authenticity of the air that is generating such a stir. The auction has a bunch of pictures on it that show the exact moments when the air was being captured. Then there are more pictures showing that just moments after capturing the air, the jar was sealed shut with two white stickers. Thus proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that this jar does in fact contain air that was gathered from the Mr. and Mrs. Premier.

Oh yeah, and you get two t-shirts too. WUPEE, t-shirts!!!

Celebrity Spray

Be the first one in your neighborhood to own your very own bottle of celebrity spray cleaner. This magic spray will help you clean any celebrity, no matter how dirty!

It seems that Woo Hoo Mystery Man has truly started a fad. So go sell something random and worthless on eBay, everybody is doing it! Who knows, mention the Woo Hoo Mystery Man in your auction and you might get your item to sell for some obscene amount of money to someone who has nothing better to do than to bid on your pointless auction…

I am starting to think that maybe I should be selling all my random stuff that no body in their right mind would want! Anybody think there is a market for my dryer lint? Maybe not, but we're going to find out if there is a market for this woman's bottle of water with a construction paper label on it.
Who knows, maybe this will be the next big thing in Hollywood
