Crazy Ebay Addiction - REPOST - please lock

If it's real, I bet that house smells like ass.

The guy is pretty funny though.

"Those buttplug looking things on the monitor are old glass insulators they used to use on telegraph and telephone lines."

"One time I ran out of toothpaste or floss or something, so I opened the medicine cabinet looking for more. Instead, I found the bathroom cabinet full of my old prescription bottles. I then realized I'd never thrown a prescription bottle away, I'd get new ones, and the old ones had just disappeared. I'd never thought about it. I confronted my mom, and she told me she was keeping hers too, and was saving them to cut the labels off so the prisoners wouldn't know what medications we were on. I told her that was crazy, and that I was going to throw mine away. A few days later I went to do that, only to find they were all gone. Mom took them all, and hid them in a box somewhere so I couldn't throw them away. They were out of my way, so I didn't pursue it any further. I make sure to throw my old bottles away now though."

"The bathroom. It's only remarkable in that it's the widest open space outside of my room. It's the only place you could actually stick your arms out and spin around. You know, if you wanted to."
 
Manson put it best: "If I haven't seen it, it's new to me."

I'd help this guy move stuff. My apartment gets like that after a while (but because I'm a messy bastard, not because I'm OCD or whatever) so I'm used to "playing catch-up" with cleaning out stuff.

I have a feeling if someone shot his mother full of Lithium she might stop buying crap.
 
WTF...........?!!!!!!!!

it looks real doesn't it? sheesh that's insane.....why would you spend money on little things like that?!...
 
She could actually be sitting on a gold mine and not know it, since the stuff isn't cataloged or cared for in any way.

She's more addicted to the winning of the auction part than she is to the actual item she's winning.. heh
 
Man, my mom is the complete opposite. If I leave anything laying out for more than a few days, I can find it in the trash/recycling bin 🙁 My dad however, throws it in a box and puts it in the garage 🙂
 

That places gives new meaning to the word "cluttered" but it seemed pretty sanitary to me. Looking at the floor it just seemed like it wasn't dirty and I didn't see any filth. But is definetely cluttered
 
Just saw a story on this, it's a type of OCD, they're usually single, widowed, divorced and the telltale characteristic is the paths that develop in the house.

Note to self, clean the freaking garage, I'm starting to scare myself.
 
My Moms house looks like that too. She buys her krap from HSN and QVC though. There are boxes of unopened stuff all around. I am trying to get her to callthese guys for help. There are pics of worse apartments and houses on that site. Its a real problem.
 
She's sick mentally. There's no ifs ands or buts about it. What really tipped it off was the comment about the prisoners not being able to tell what medication that they were on. I think it's sad and she needs help, not someone humiliating her publicly online. That being said, I think I have two words for her.. Power Seller! 🙂 I find myself buying a lot of sh*t on these deals forums. Thank god I have Ebay as an outlet to sell this stuff. Sal
