"Well, crying isn't gonna bring your dog back . . . unless your tears smell like dog food. So you can either sit there crying and eating can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food to make your dog come back or you can go out there and find your dog."

This Post is Not About Sarah Palin

I've been selling stuff on eBay for almost a year, and I'm constantly surprised at the rudeness and presumptuousness (and cluelessness) of people. I'm sort of hacked that eBay doesn't allow Sellers to leave negative feedback on Buyers any more, because I've had my share of irate morons I'd love to warn people about.

Just now I got a message from a buyer whose auction closed on Sunday. He wanted to know why he hadn't received his CD yet.

I politely informed him that the post office is not open on Sundays. Or on Labor Day. And that I shipped his CD to him this morning.

I wish I could say this was the lamest message I've gotten.

Yepper I deal with people at work and they can be so interesting. I've been cussed out, stuff has been thrown at me, and I have been blamed for things out of my control. I’m sorry that people are sooooo lame.

On the flip side some of them pray for me, look for me, and tell me how much they love me. People are soooo great.
