YSaC, Vol. 1284: Not Craigslist edition

2012 June 28

Okay, it’s not from Craigslist. Sue me. Sarajean sent me this eBay ad a while ago, and I thought it deserved to be seen. I’m leaving out all the usual eBay nonsense and focusing on the bit that really matters.

Lovely Preety Words Stud Earrings 453

These would look great on a bruneete smoking a cigareete. Of course, she should be a clarineettist dueeting with a corneetist. Anything else would be gheeto. But don’t be unseetled; regreetably her largheeto was forgeetable, and she and her peeticoats piroueeted away peetily.

This post has been brought to you by a website that contains a list of all words that contain the letters “ett“. Why that website exists, I have no idea, but it sure came in handy today.

    If only it were Words With “Ett” then we could have Etta James belt out torch songs . . . except my fickle mind, what little is left after a ludicrous quantity of sequential Mondays, will only offer up samples of Eartha Kitt. The latter being no musical slouch either, just not an “Ett.”

    I’ll just guess that the target–egads, that would be a horrible pun–of this jewelry is that it is meant for those who “dress up” to go to Wal*Mart™.

    Otherwise, I am left with a stereotypical mental image of the person wearing this item having hair color from a bottle, applied at home, without skill at the task, who also engages in reflexive incessant gum-popping while chain-smoking Galoise (since you caint git ’em cloves no maor), who embodies “rode hard and put away wet” an indeterminate number of years and rodeo ago. Who would not consider the implications in being given “peaty” or “petey” earrings, and would wear them for being “shiney” . . .

    I may have spent too much of my like around hicks and (proto)hipsters . . .

    eBay currently has 302 listings for “preety,” or 538 if you search both title and description. The overwhelming majority have nothing to do with people whose actual first name is Preety. That’s preety unseetling.

    I believe these are for the girlfriend of Canadian financial expert Preet Banerjee, author of the blog wheredoesallmymoneygo.com. Also, he’s a race car driver.

      That’s “neckless,” Ralph. Sadly, I am not kidding – check eBay.

        Yes, do check out eBay, Ralph. I really think you might enjoy it. (insert obligatory winky face here)

        And while you’re at it, can you find me a hairloom seahell braclet with some decrotive cellulite churbs on it? I need some antic jewery to go with my breaded satan weeding dress.

          This is one of those times I wish eBay wasn’t blocked on my work computer. Damn my boss for not letting me search for breaded satans!

          They have some georgeous bearded stain ones too. Very shinny, not too much sequence.

    I actually bought a pair of these after I sent the ad in to the Llamanun (BBUH) and they look exactly like the picture.

        Of course I don’t – I read fanfiction. But I was kinda hoping I’d get a pair that said “gorejuice” or something like that.
