And make sure to read the entire listing.

That was wonderful, damn near made my day!

The little shit deserves his punishment, in my not-so-humble opinion. If I were his dad I'd have sold his games too.

Oh certainly that kid deserved his punishment. And I think the parents made the perfect choice by picking out the one thing that would really hurt the most.

As for the games, they're not much use without the console... though if I were the parents I'd put them under lock and key so he can't take them over to a friends house. If the kid further infracts, then they should start ebaying those as well.

But by the same token the person listing the auction is an obnoxious twat, so you can probably figure out where the kid inherited the behaviour from, no?

Have to tell you, that's made me laugh hard for a good few minutes now...
*well done*
*grin*

If, as they say in the listing, parents are smarter than their children, and the parents make eBay listings which...

  • are copied out of Microsoft Word;
  • are all-red "just in case" people can't read them in black;
  • SHOUT IN CAPITAL LETTERS;
  • contain numerous typos and grammatical errors,

then I would hate to think how stupid the child must be.

Point taken. However, I still think this was a great punishment for the little turd :P

[identity profile] trejkaz.livejournal.com 2004-06-06 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, absolutely. It's just a shame nobody can punish the parent at the same time.

I guess having a kid like that might be punishment too :P

Plus their special occasion rare champers is the way of the dodo.

Other than that, I live in hope that English wasn't the parent's first language. Or second.






It's a futile hope, I know.

That is one stupid fucking kid.

Now, I'm prone to steal some of my parents alcohol from time to time myself. If they buy some beer for a special occasion, I might nick one or two. Some liqour my dad bought because he wanted to make one Margarita, I'll snag some of that too. But, I generally refrain from inviting friends over and drinking all of the beer, and anything in a bottle with a date on it is to be avoided at all costs.
