I figured we could use something funny for a distraction.
I have a lot of stuff for sale on half.com, and lately I have been adding trading card sets to my inventory.
The other day, I was trying to list my Dick Tracy movie set…but every time I tried to enter the name, I got an error message from the site saying that the field contained “profanity.”
Finally I gave up and just listed it as “D.Tracy.”
And in my seller’s notes, I said, "It’s not my fault that the guy’s name is “D-I-C-K.” (They had no problem with the hyphenated version, apparently.)
Got me wondering, though. What if there were an entire trading card set devoted to Pussy Galore?
I’m amazed that they let me list “Free Willy” with no problem.
