Cashing in on J.R.R.
 
Is it just me, or have the slimeballs over at eBay started cashing in on The Old Man big time? Look at these examples of pure profiteering:

$5900 - Two Towers
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1497945886

I'd buy a First Ed. TT, but $5900! Come on...

$1600 - J.R.R. Disses Cambridge English Geeks
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1049467150

This might actually be worth it if he wrote "Piss off, you wankers, I'm smarter than all of you combined, you milk sucking spawn of idiotic goats. Ha!"

$250 - RARE! RARE! RARE! Gandalf Doll
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1313226198

*sigh*

I guess it had to happen. All I know is that the first person I see with one of those glowing mugs from Burger King is gonna get my boot up their ass.

You've been warned...

Note that the first one is just for the dust jacket, not for the book itself.

Egad! You're right. I am acting like a Slashdot editor and not thoroughly researching the topic of my submission. How JonKatz of me. I truly apologize.

Taco's worse. What a fucking tard.

The only JonKatz article I truly object to is the bullshit Afghanistan one. What a crock.

michael's right up there with the CmdrTaco. He can take an interesting story and add the most banal comments to the end of it.

Headline: Einstein Resurrected - Proves Universe is Finite

michael: Wow, I can't wait to see another picture of him sticking his tongue out.

I officially nominate Slashdot for my monthly "Boot up the Ass Award".

hehe. I agree. Michael is a tool too.
