You Know You’re a Penny Auction Bidder If…

“You know you’re a penny auction bidder if you learned to hate people you don’t even know” –letsplay

We really enjoyed the recent “life of a bidder” thread in the funny index of our forum that was started up by “letsplay” so this got us to thinking, let’s continue the fun and start The Official You Know You’re a Penny Auction Bidder If… Guide!

Here’s how it’ll work, each day/week, depending on how creative all of our awesome members are, you will (trust us, you’ll want to) post an image or slogan [in this thread] to complete the sentence, “You Know You’re a Penny Auction Bidder If…” we’ll then pick our favorites and feature them here on the homepage each week. P.S. there might just be a special prize in store for the weekly winner, so get creative! The 5 members who have participated thus far have already each won a prize,  please e-mail us now to claim it if you were among the first 5 to post!

We love fun photos, but here are the rules: You must use Creative Commons “Some Rights Reserved” licensed photos, flickr.com is a great place for these (go to advanced search + select “some rights reserved,” and make sure you post a link to where you got the photo. Don’t steal bandwidth: trans-load images  (upload url) with imgur.com or similar before you post it them in our forum!

Here’s the first post headed up by letsplay, you rock!

That’s why online pharmacies is becoming more pop over the last years. Well-known are remedies which are used to reduce inflammation caused by inflammation of the skeletal muscle etc. There were only few examples. Did somebody tell you about canadian generic Viagra? Maybe you already know about the problem. Sexual dysfunction can be a result of a physical condition. Even when it has a physical cause, psychological problems can make the disorder worse.

    I found the LOST one hilarious. Speaking of which, the auction was today for all the props and costumes. Is anyone going to participate on tomorrow's auction?

    You know you are a true penny auction bidder if…

    the enjoyment and frustration of winning an auction at 5:15 am after not sleeping for 43 hours somehow magically causes you to bring out your hidden inner undiscovered writing abilities.

    you actually moved your bed, mini fridge, Tv, Xbox360, pets along with thier food all out of your home and into your office where you can keep a constant watch on your favorite penny auction site.

    falling asleep in your office chair is normal, before UPS ruins your bliss by ringing that darn doorbell.

    preperation means emptying the ashtray, filling up the snack bowl, draining your bladder and putting two redbulls in front of you.

    you get so excited about your wins but have decided it’s best to keep it secret from everybody.

    bidding is ALL YOU DO.

    you have purchased a REALLY comfortable office chair, gained wieght, lost your friends, talked to your PC monitor.

    you have wondered if bidding may have been more beneficial during LOST or AMERICAN IDOL, and decided to DVR them only to find out the DVR ran out of time, but it was worth it!

    Thanks for the kudos PAW, I didn’t know if anyone would even take a look a the original thread, and thanks to those that have!
