Says the man who lives on Fake Street ![]()
I’m pretty sure he nailed it.
Yep. Flatlined and Ducati are the two biggest bullshit peddlers on the Dope.
I believe our OP is in the running for Chief Shit Peddler. Of course, you can’t even trust her to ship that in a timely manner.
In what possible way is it relevant that a doctor told you this story?
Who you gonna trust to correctly diagnose a doughnut on a penis if not a medical professional?
Nitpick, “decorated donuts.”
Better donuts than a bagel dog
As pointed out in post #117, the story is an urban legend, as are pretty much all such stories told by a trustworthy/esteemed member of the community or friend of a friend.
“I’ve got bad news for you. That’s not glaze.”
Yes, doctors are not immune to believing and spreading urban legends.
You’ll notice the snopes link doesn’t list this as false. There’s really no reason to think nobody has picked up the legend and actually done it. I was good friends with some members of the men’s crew (rowing) team in college and they pulled this stunt on the women’s team, although they said they gave the girls fresh donuts and temporarily let them think they’d eaten the dick donuts. I suppose they could have been lying to me about it, but I remember being told about it that day, and they were all amped up about it, and it’s exactly the kind of prank they’d do.
Cause, yeah, wow- no mortal human could sell used Motorcycle stuff on eBay! :eek:
Do you know what eBay is?![]()
:dubious:
Yeah, it doesn’t list it as false, but it does list it as a “legend”. I don’t know - everybody’s always got anecdotal evidence for urban legends; that’s how they work. It’s always something a friend claims to have experienced, but never the person telling the story, and there never seems to be any verifiable proof (you’d think at least pictures would be shared, in this case). I tend to go with “bullshit” for these kinds of stories.
Well, let’s just say I witnessed first-hand the prankees punching the prankers in the shoulder and calling them assholes for weeks whenever it was brought up, so if it was bullshit, they were putting on a pretty good act. 
How do we know YOU’RE not an urban legend?
Umm in no way did I imply that the person ordering it would not make other arrangements to get ANOTHER gift once they saw the original wasn’t going to get there in time for the hypothetical party :dubious: I was only discussing THIS transaction and this particular BAG.
Also, in my attempt to avoid writing too long of a response I apparently did not make it crystal clear “I do not agree with ANY of the OPs actions.” and I agree that she’s ‘nucking futs’ just like the rest of you. The purse should have been shipped ASAP without delay. The question was valid; sitting on the item while waiting for a response was NOT. I was simply addressing the many people who simply couldn’t dredge up enough imagination to see why a buyer might not want an item anymore.
Apparently eBaY agrees with me because when opening up a case against a seller you have to check a box about whether you still want the item or not!
The OP smells funny, and not like poop … more like rotting fish heads out in the sun.
I know there people out there who act like the OP, and I know they post their tales on the web. I see them on FaceBook, Twitter, even here on SDMS.
But the long and well-thought out story was posted in the Pit, very peculiar. All the right buzz-words and catch-it-alls as though they WANTED all the negative postings that followed. It doesn’t add up …
… seventeen years on eBay … do you know just how long that is in internet years?
I say the OP is a tall tale, never happened.
The OP’s tale is that she didn’t put poop in a bag and send it. If that never happened, you’re saying she actually went through with it? I’ve never heard of a non event being described as a tall tale before. Seems reasonable to believe others would have talked her out of such an action not any stretch of the imagination.
