Epic win

I just used to look at when the auction ended and set an alarm/reminder to be at my computer or on my phone with a few minutes to go. I'd never bother monitoring anything. Maybe I'd check in a few days in advance just to make sure it hadn't already gone above my intended max.

But then I was just doing one or two auctions a week. Can imagine it's different if you're addicted to eBay.

If you put something on your watchlist and have notifications on, you'll get a message telling you when the item has 15m left.

Thanks for that. A wee light of cheer under gloomy skies.

I wonder if they'll keep the store open.

Might be a nice little earner.

My best eBay win was selling a cycle jacket I'd never worn. Two eejits got into a bidding war and one ended up paying £120. Jacket was available brand new from Endura for £90.

The disappointment when they realised it was not impregnated with your fragrance must have been crushing.

Good on The Onion. Maybe The Daily Mash will buy GB News. Except, The Onion is actually funny.

With the amount of literally ridiculous shit happening on such a large scale these days, it's a shame more of it isn't this hilarious.

Onions making the gullible cry.

It is all government lies, or a hoax. Very elaborate hoax.

Maori MP leads haka in New Zealand parliament as a protest.

Pfff, gave me goosebumps

Same!
Hits different when it isn't on a rugby pitch.

That’s how you make a point.

I now have terrible images of Rees-Mogg leading a morris dance around the commons.

Oof that's powerful. Every so often I'll watch Jonah Lomus funeral where 3 separate groups do a haka for him and brrrrr every time!

Perfect!

Apparently, the day after Welby resigned, Ian Hislop bumped into him at a British Museum bash where he was still being all airs and graces and "Isn't this a lovely event." At which point Ian rather lost it and had a go at him. There's something about it in the latest Eye but some footage would be nice.

I doubt that drinks parties at the British Museum are the kinds of events where people whip out their phones to get a viral clip.

It came up on HIGNFY too.

So did I.

Really have a lot of respect for Ian, but do think of his people (at Private Eye) as a bit shit.

If you've tried to open bacon packaging using the useless tab provided, you'll appreciate the enormity of this achievement.
