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 !

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
Do you REALLY think you can sell it on eBay? Following is a link to the closest thing I can find: http://cgi.ebay.com/Brahmin-Rosal...3f0947707d

Mine is called "Golden" (versus the puke green which most people call it) but I don't have the registration papers (because it was given them for advertising or someone had it in the back of his/her closet). The one linked above, with the papers, is selling for $69.99 and free shipping.

If you can get me ANY money for it, that would be great. And if it helps, I have a paypal account, for buying only, though.

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?
Attachment 535603

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.
Ahh don't be so hard on your butt ugly purse. It would go great with some of those butt ugly hats at the royal weddinglaugh out loudlaugh out loudRoll Eyes (Sarcastic)Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

I didn't watch any of that yet, I'll bet it was a kick in the butt though. She does seem like a nice gal. Hope she doesn't meet her demise like his MOm did.FrownFrown

I would just like to reiterate here -- I posted that purse receipt on the assumption that I would get SYMPATHY from my fellow Funny Farmers. hug How could I have been so wrong??? EEK!

All I'm seeing is post after post of some of the most hysterical remarks I've seen in years. You guys crack me up. I leave for 10 minutes and come back to rude remark after crude remark about that stupid ugly obscene purse, and I laugh so hard I wake up the cats. They are not amused, but I sure am. I feel a lot better about that disgusting item now. I can actually think about it and twitch, not with dismay, but with giggles.

Thank you all for that. nod

I don't know if it will sell or not - worth a try though - there are only fees if it sells. You want me to use the picture you posted here & list it for you? I would make the buyer pay for shipping, deduct the final auction value fee & PayPal fee, then send the rest to your PayPal account. If it does sell, I will send you the buyer's shipping info & you would have to take care of getting it shipped to them.
