Well, I suppose it's better than a nef for a first post, but brownie points are not awarded for usage of "ROFL".

*edit*
Oh, btw, funny funny. :)

Eh, I'd sell my vote for president. It's worthless anyway. My vote wil lbe counted towards the next democratic nominee for president whether I want it to be or not.

Well I discovered that selling my vote is illegal. Who'd a Thunk!! So I immediately cancelled my last auction #3178111989 (prison = bad!) and revise it here for your bidding pleasure...

UP FOR AUCTION: I was planning to waste my vote in the upcoming Presidential election by voting for a Democrat! But I realize now that my vote should not be wasted in that way, so I will waste it in a more entertaining way. I am auctioning ONE HOUR of MY TIME to the highest bidder. During that hour you will have my undivided attention while you try to educate and convince me as to why I should vote for the candidate of your choice. Of course I reserve the right to vote as I choose, as it must be, but will strongly consider your viewpoints and opinions in my decision making process.

If you win the auction, we can conduct the one hour session by telephone, or in person within a 30 mile radius of Houston, Texas. Upon Election Day, I will send you a picture of me voting for whichever candidate I ultimately decide to vote for. Shipping is free; starting price will be $5.15, the Federal Minimum Wage for MY HOUR of time.

Thanks for bidding.
I reported him to Ebay. :disgust:

Isn't that what he is doing illegal?

There was a case in germany of a student doing just that and he got a 5000? fine.

What's illegal about it? In this auction he's selling an hour of his time to the highest bidder during which time they can educate him and convince him to vote for a candidate of their choice.

Isn't that EXACTLY what political campaigns/friends/family/coworkers/neighbors do?

Good! He was draging that festering hell hole of an auction site down. Thank God you stopped him before it was too late!
