Someone shared [this](http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1467&item=5558573507&rd=1) with me today on another bored.

My reactions:  
😕 :dubious: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Then later on [this](http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1469&item=5544760152) was shared.

:eek:

And I thought I was worldly and all having read way too many TMI threads on here.

Ebay is a wonderful reminder that even the crap we get through the mail goes through some sort of quality control:

(all from the OP’s links)

On a little searching (hey, I’m bored 😛 )…that seller’s feedback leads to " ADULT BABY PAMPERS _FORCED HUMILIATION & BABY WEAR_", which perhaps makes more sense for the whole situation.

Seriously those are the strangest things I’ve ever seen being auctioned off. I don’t even go to eBay anymore – it’s gotten TOO big IMHO. Maybe I’m just too impatient but really. Or that grille cheese? Did anyone see that one on eBay? :dubious:

Yeah, that William Daniels one totally blew.

It was better than the Anthony Daniels one, though.

Wait… wait wait… wait…

This is a CD for people to listen to, to hypnotize themselves INTO wetting the bed?

Didn’t _NCIS_ have an episode about this fetish recently?

You know, I always used to think of myself as a pretty kinky girl, open to many new things sexually, willing to try anything twice… but the more time I spend at eBay, the more I feel like I’m just plain old vanilla.

_hangs up the whip and chains, changes out of dom outfit and puts on some sweatpants_

le sigh. I used to frighten the world. Now the world frightens me.

I think that was CSI (Las Vegas). Unless it’s a trend and NCIS did it too–I don’t watch NCIS.

Could’ve been. I don’t watch _CSI_; but I think I did watch one show recently. Maybe that was it.
