Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Great minds think alike ! ! ! worship You have no idea how close I was to asking for her address. But then I sobered up and realized that I was NOT going to spend money to send it anywhere any more than I was going to spend money trying to dye it a decent color. It is effectively hidden from sight and will remain that way until my sister gets here. Let HER be blinded by its obsceness (please note: spell check tried to change this word to "abscess" but I wouldn't let it). You people have already suffered enough having to look at the picture I posted. I just couldn't resist sharing it with you all. Yes, I'm weak. Especially when I'm appalled. laugh out loud
You think spell check saw the butt-ugly purse, and that's why it was trying to change the word to abscess? It does kinda look like a butt-ugly abscess! laugh out loud

Hey, I think I still have treedown's address from sending her Hall's coupons. I would even send you the money to ship the thing to her - it would be worth it to hear about her reaction when she received it in the mail! Rofl2

Thanks for the link. One of my daughters likes to drink coffee occasionally, but we don't have a coffee maker, so these individual instant coffee samples, along with the free Coffeemate coupons I've received, are perfect for her.

She thinks she might be depressed and wants anti depressants. i told her that was her night night meds but she doesnt believe me. She wants a second opinion from her dr because he put in her files that she was a hypochondriac!!!! Shes still fighting to get a new boobie since her other one was stolen from her car. $500 for a boob!!! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) She finally got it from her insurance since it was theft
Facepalm Do any of you realize how hard it is to go through life being a compassionate smart a$$? I don't even know how to proceed here. Admittedly, I always ask because I get such a kick out of you when you get going ... but jeeze! Give the lady her boobie! And wtf steals a boob and more importantly wtf was it to get stolen??? This certainly is a dilemma! Big Grin All I know is: if I spend too much time on this, I'll wake up screaming at 3:00 am!

I need to add this thought - I'd be really POed if her DR put that in her files. What if something serious came along and he blew her off?Soap Box Ok. Now, I'm done.

Hey, if I'm freak enough to like it, I'm sure that others would also. You should sell it on eBay, especially if it really retails for that much. People who would find it an ugly $20 purse would be thrilled to pay $40 for an awesome $100 purse (I hope that makes sense to somebody). I figured that out when I was making jewelry ... I sold so much more after I jacked the prices way up. Some folks are just goofy. Scratchhead I'll post my home address right here in front of God and everybody if you'll post a video of you twitching in front of the purse! lmao
I'm not the one twitching, it's shesays that's twitching over the butt-ugly thing being anywhere near her. I've offered to sell it for her on ebay - or give her treedown's address so she can send it to her! laugh out loud

You people are reveling in my shock at having gotten that vileness, aren't you? Well, I sent an email to the person who told me that I'd be getting a consolation prize [I didn't want to say anything until it actually arrived, because (1) I didn't know if they'd truly send something and (2) they'd already pulled a switch on the TV]. Following is what I sent:

Thank you???

I got the FedEx package today and it contained one of the most butt ugly purses I've ever seen. It's a green-tinged gold colored alligator/snake skin item. My first thought was "OMG, they have to be joking" but then, inside the purse, was a soft storage bag, so I said to moi-meme, "Hmmm. That looks kind of expensive." Went on-line, and the stupid thing retailed for like $95 a few years ago and I thought, "What a waste." Also wondered whose closet it had been sitting in all this time. Did you see what they sent?

I posted the picture on a forum I belong to. Following are some of the comments it received.

OMG, I am laughing so hard! LMAOLMAOLMAO
I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy!

give it to a dog - better(?) than a bully stick (you might need to look up "bully stick" to find out why it's such a funny remark)

OMG, that thing is ugly! That was not very nice of them at all! They could have at least stuck a couple crisp $100 bills in the darned thing!

In short, epic fail. But at least you tried. It's too grotesque to even consider re-gifting. My sister will probably dump it in the Lions Club yard sale box (after wiping off our fingerprints – wouldn't want it traced back to either of us) and with any luck they'll get $5 for it.

So trust me on this – the next time a contest gets messed up, do NOT send a consolation prize. Just apologize for the error and move on.

Ok, I thought I was caught up on posts, but we have boobies stolen from elderly ladies, God awful ugly purses trying to be discarded onto others, and the saddest thing of all, is one of you folks (I will not name names) actually likes that horendous thing that is supposed to be a purse! Oh my, I think it just might be my bedtime
