Right-angle Shower Arm Chrome (#110221062216)'



One right-angle Shower Arm Chrome and slightly shop-soiled breakfast radio host coming up, Mr. or Ms. Scudbuster2.



Wtf is a 'scudbuster', anyways? Is it some kind of anti Mark Philippoussis thing? And how on earth did someone else choose that nickname first? WHO AND WHERE IS SCUDBUSTER1?

I think they used Scudbusters in the first Gulf War (or maybe not ... )

I didn’t make a bid,I prefer to win my radio women at street racing meets.I am interested to hear you sing Scarlett style.

Scarlett style –to appear naked on the front of a magazine cover

OH come on now ! Irrespective of any seemingly acceptable plastic Transformer toy fetish, I put it to you any man who can see the value in 200+ Capsicum seeds, is a good catch. With his EBay navigation skills, sci-fi inspired creativity, and nous with his hands, think of what he could do with 200+ pot seeds and the cheap purchase of some hyrdoponics gear ! You need not lift a finger !

Yeah, scudbusters were some kind of US superweapon designed to shoot down Iraqi launched missiles.

At last count, I think they came within several hundred metres of two, but mostly didn't have any effect whatsoever.

What concerns me, Fits, is that I have never bought anything from ebay. This may put me well and truly back in the latter C20th, but somehow, knowing you can find anything in existence just by putting an appropriate boolean string in a search field takes all the fun out of shopping

Marieke my love, please don't give yourself to the winning bidder. Come to Queens Domain and you can stay on my fold out couch. Together we can post on BigFooty.com and discuss my interest in cosplay!

Yours forever in milk milk lemonade,

Ms. Fits

I think you need to look further thank just the last thing they bought:

'cityofaustralind2
10-Mar-08 19:04 FALLEN RELIANT SKATEBOARD
SHOE 13usa BLACK/GUM (#200201103408)

Is apparently a priest who prefers the company of small children according to their profile in the ebay community...

On the upside they do have 100% positive feedback, so I guess that covers any sin?

Accuracy beats vocabulary said...
@TLS

It's even easier than that. You can just use keywords, or, gasp, the name of what you are looking for, boolean operators are optional.

Submit AND Submit AND Submit!

Was there a reserve? Or indeed any reservations? Perhaps one where you and the Indian boyman could frolic a la blue lagoon: you could be either Brooke Shields OR the blonde lad forgotten by time. You are attracting a right assortment, so you're only a pronoun and six letters away from the right sort

"Scudbuster" is a spelling error. The bidder meant "Skidbuster", which is something inserted in your underpants to avoid unslightly stains. Plastic bags from the supermarket work a treat. Better still, just fill your daks with cat litter. Try it once, and you'll never go back to wiping your bot-bot again.

Marmalade said...
Here I was thinking you had Bevis down a well, Fits. Where has he been? Muppet egg cups?

In a well of his own shame. A soft, plush well.

@ Yokel: I think he meant 'Scodbuster' - a slapping device featuring a heavy glove mounted on a long pole. Best used when Tripod do one of those 'irony-free-serious-muso' numbers.

Congratulations Lady Fits! Im only newly acquainted with this fabulous blog but in my opinion its eminently deserving of its award.
I'm disappointed they didnt at least give you a gold-coloured statue though. Or perhaps an e-statue.

Aren't you meant to have some sort of official stamp of approval at the top of the page now?

I love that a blog that has been on my favourites for years has been recognised.

Must be the big radio star exposure! Maybe Hamish Blakes blog will get it next year.

I buy vintage strawberry shortcake dolls on eBay, and little else. I now have 20 of the little buggers. I tell myself that I'm not as tragic as those women who buy kitten posters ("Hang In There!") and Royal Doulton figurines but...

Yeah.

$5000?!

I would have bid on you Ms Fits, but alas I am a very poor man and I don't think I could have won with the change scrounged behind my couch.

Oh, dear. That could be my friend Scott. He's quite the catch actually. No, really.

strawbs said...
transformer toys were not just made out of plastic they were made out of metal and plastic
and back in the day they were 1 of the most articulated toys of their day and maybe 2day.
i still have all my transformers from my childhood and going by ebays prices ive got myself a very nice nest egg .
well done Ms fits on your award, soak it up!

ReservoirDog said...
Well that's just effing dandy. I find out about this ebay item 10 hours hours after it closes. Not that i had 5 Gorillas to part with for a dinner and a few happy snaps but it would have been nice to dream a bit. If i did know earlier i could have had a crack at a few extra multiples at the greyhounds on Sat night and scraped together the 6 large. Think I'd want a pash for 6 though, and maybe a signed photo from one of the early First Tues episodes. One with the puppies on show and a bit of leg. Those were the days.

I don't know what this post is about. I usually enjoy this blog... but this post seems to herald a descent into a thinly veiled circle jerk.

Ha! That's hilarious.

The only well of shame I'm living in is the one where I'm embarrassed that I couldn't afford to bid any higher than I did.

But I simply HAD to be part of the experience, Ms Fits.

So ... wanna go out for a cuppa?
