How to torture an eBayer

We’ve been trying out selling things on eBay recently.  Just spent over an hour sorting real Legos from fake ones.  I can’t see tiny things anymore.  We recently attempted to count a K’Nex set with over 1000 pieces and finally gave up on that one and just sold it as a lot.

Welcome to the future

The alarm clock on my phone crashed instead of waking me up.  Our TV took 9 seconds to boot until it updated itself…now it freezes.  Welcome to the future.

more insane facts about womens' clothing

Vanessa showed me another insane fact about womens’ clothing (aside from the wrong-sided buttons thing).  Their jeans only come with novelty-sized tiny pockets!  These pockets can’t hold a cellphone most of the time.  Just ridiculous.  Who knew? (aside from the women)
