Get to Biddin'!
Actual eBay item description. Got a giggle out of it.
You are bidding on the digital press kit for GARDEN STATE, the award-winning directorial debut from (and starring) Zach Braff from television's SCRUBS. The film also stars Natalie Portman, and you know what that means, don't you? It means you need this press kit. You need it more than air.
The CD-ROM comes with all of the typical press kit-type stuff, like scads of photos, posters, and the film's trailer. Once the other eBay kids find out Queen Amidala has a new film coming out, you know the price on this puppy is going to skyrocket. So get bidding, fools!
PayPal only.
Bid on more of my crud and save on shipping.
Good luck and happy bidding.
175 Definitions of Jesus, and Honkys!
175 Definitions of Jesus from UrbanDictionary.com. Interesting as an example of what people will say about culturally important topics when they don't have to worry about the consequences. Not for the easily offended.

This Guy is the Definition of Spare Time.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate good looking women, but not so much that I would devote what has to be a huge amount of time compiling a 50 gigabyte database of a quarter million images online. Yikes.

A&F Target Market = Morons.
Look at our butts! And our dog! And our lack of sports bras! We even drop the S-bomb TWICE! Wow!
Sorry, but this is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen on the internet. And I've seen My Dark Horse is Horny and thirty-seven chewies.
On the bright side, it turned me onto this cool new album.

Warning: Offensive (ergo funny)
MARIA F., Zebulon, GA
When I started dating, boys always expected me to have intercourse with them. I knew I couldn't resist the peer pressure alone, so now I double-date with my pal Shelly. Now when boys pressure us for sex, we say "no" together – then satisfy them by putting on a hot girl-girl show in the back seat.
MARK G., Atomic City, ID
When I started my junior year of high school, I was already the captain of the football team and the baseball team, I was a straight-A honors student, and girls were offering themselves to me. I just couldn't say no to easy sex and free booze, but I knew I was risking my future. So I prayed on it, drove to Boise, and got this butt-ugly haircut. I haven't been laid since, praise Jesus!
REBECCA K., Great Falls, MT
I know what you're thinking: "Anal sex?! Gross! No way!" But it's so cool! My boyfriends get totally turned on by watching me lube up, and I don't worry anymore about getting pregnant. And anal is definitely the fast track to the "in" crowd: Ever since I started taking it anal, I've been way popular at school!

Darned Angry Christian Bowlers.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
I thought "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" was the worst movie I've ever seen. "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" sinks lower. Glorification of the self-indulgence of any kind is frivolous at best and when this self-indulgence is recreational drug use, it's simply evil. Moral relativism is the underlying justification that recreational druggies use, and the self-centered morass that this movie portrays disgusts me. Moral relativism is Satan's arguement against the moral standard that the Lord gives us, and the resulting anarchy, even when appearing as harmless fun or benign, draws us further away from God's Truth. Some would tell me not to push morality at them, but I wish that popular culture would stop pushing amoratliy and immorality at me.

Fight Club
The best movie I can't recommend... Wow. David Fincher once more brings to the fore a cinematic cataclysm. This may be the best movie of 1999 that I can't recommend. Why not? Not because I think that the sex is particularly raunchy. Nor because of the attitude and worldview espoused. It's the violence. Not that the violence is gratuitous, mindless, or any of the other buzz-words so often associated with such films. Rather, the violence is realistic (I would suppose...) and is sometimes difficult to stomach. Bare-fisted pugilism is by necessity a brutal activity and so this film in documenting such fisticuffs becomes via transposition, brutal. My caution would be: Do not see this movie. That being said, Fight Club was probably the best movie I've seen this year.

And my favorite...
The Big Lebowski
I wish I had read your review before I went to see this movie. I love to bowl with my youth group and consider bowling to be a healthy pasttime. I was so disapointed that this movie would take a clean Christian sport like bowling and pervert with the drugs and sex and profanity. I would urge other Christian bowlers to stay away from "The Big Lebowski".

Now, to be fair, there were plenty of reasonable and well thought out reviews. These are the wierd ones.
The review site's home page, or you can go right to the Extremely Offensive page (the title is written in such delicate text. Kinda comforting, really.). If you use FireFox, I suggest the home page, as there's a neat glitch in the Current Better Choices window when you highlight the titles within it (See how wide you can make your browser window!).

ASPCA: Repeat, please.
NORAD: CENTCOM is telling us the dogs got out. Can you confirm?
ASPCA: Dogs?
NORAD: Yes.
ASPCA: Let me check. [8 second silence] Yes, they got out.
NORAD: Who let the dogs out?
ASPCA: Who?
NORAD: Who.

Why Can't We All Just Get Along?
5 September 1999, Jerusalem:
In most parts of the world, the switch away from Daylight Saving Time proceeds smoothly. But the time change raised havoc with Palestinian terrorists this year.
Israel insisted on a premature switch from Daylight Savings Time to Standard Time to accommodate a week of pre-sunrise prayers. Palestinians refused to live on "Zionist Time." Two weeks of scheduling havoc ensued. Nobody knew the "correct" time.
At precisely 5:30pm on Sunday, two coordinated car bombs exploded in different cities, killing three terrorists who were transporting the bombs. It was initially believed that the devices had been detonated prematurely by klutzy amateurs. A closer look revealed the truth behind the explosions.
The bombs had been prepared in a Palestine-controlled area, and set to detonate on Daylight Saving Time. But the confused drivers had already switched to Standard Time. When they picked up the bombs, they neglected to ask whose watch was used to set the timing mechanism. As a result, the cars were still en-route when the explosives detonated, delivering the terrorists to their untimely demises.

Until you find out the measurements.

"Spreading the Gospel in the werewolf and furry communities."
This poor bastard's got his work cut out for him. Note to the non geeky. You might have trouble "reaching out" to con kiddies when you write stuff like "I hate fantasy roleplaying games. I will state here and I will state elsewhere that I never want to be solicited with a request to join an online roleplaying game. Ever. Nor do I want to advertise for such games on my website or endorse paraphernalia associated with such games. Don't even send me your character's stats. It might insult me."
Keri's gonna love this.
