    eBay fucks up buyers, self
    "Online auction site eBay has said it plans to overhaul its feedback system and will ban sellers from leaving negative comments about buyers.

    EBay said problems were occurring, and slowing down trade, when buyers left negative comments about sellers who then retaliated with their own views.
    From May, those selling on eBay will not be able to leave unfavourable or neutral messages about buyers. "

    As Fragiletender pointed out, I read this wrong! It's SELLERS who won't be able to gove negative feedback, not buyers. Oops.

    Nipples on boy 'cos God wants it that way. And something about engine blocks.
    With her succinct post, titled, "Just wondering...", the redoubtable Feòrag ask:

    "...how do intelligent design advocates explain male nipples?"

    Well, here's how... (by a ID type called 'quintilis') with bad metaphors about car engines (of course!):
    Click for IDiocy )

    Found, by the way, on a site called overwhelmingevidence.com... feel free to go there and be spurned for your freaky use of logic and other evil stuff.

    I can't wait to hear his explanation for knees, the epiglottis and the old "playground built next to the waste dump" problem. If they're examples of Design, it weren't that intelligent. Or, as Saint Bill of the Hicks preached, God was stoned when he made us.

    Law and Order - Special Guru Unit (**chung-chung**)
    Not likely to be as much fun as the Crowley vs. Mathers court case, but still good for a giggle. Via Guruphiliac, this tale of enlightened seekers and true forgiveness:

    "JZ Knight is either a typically lame woo-woo woman who's fooled herself and millions of others into believing she's some kind of 35,000-year-old badass warrior guru, or she's an as-sharp-as-a-sushi-knife con woman enjoying the good life, scot-free as she surfs on the spectacular ignorance of her students.

    But lately, those Atlantian waters have been a little rough for the former manicurist turned super-rich New Age™ profitess. To protect that profit, Knight is suing another local woo-woo guru for biting her style. Every con has got to protect their cash cow:

    School founder JZ Knight, through the school's corporate arm, JZK Inc., has sued another Thurston County spiritual teacher, WhiteWind Weaver, for allegedly stealing Knight's ideas and Ramtha's teachings and using them in her own workshop. Weaver heads Art of Life Coaching, a personal growth program based in Lacey and Rainier. A four-day trial is set to begin March 10 in Thurston County Superior Court.

    How quaint: two completely wacked, fully-deluded, self-proclaimed New Age™ guruesses giving each other the business in court. We wish we could be there."

    Current Mood: amused, happily nibbling on a very nice truffle
