    $35 for something by Beuys and/or Hirst?* It’s a steal! Especially since the questions are included!

      I feel manipulated and lied to. I suppose Santa Claus isn’t real either and that what Sparky was trying to abbreviate was the word “Accessories”…?? A cold winter is on the horizon.

    The seller needs to specify whether those are freshwater or saltwater asses. Despite superficial similarities, they are different in care.

          I had a good 60 second giggling fit, thinking of a bowl full of ass-fish. You know, with their little cheeks pressed up against the glass, little bubbles coming out of their mouths.

    I have this sad feeling that they haven’t been using a filter or an air bubbler for those asses. Sure people think that just because they can gulp air that they don’t need filtration, or that they can just plant a tree over the tank and the asses will be fine eating the roots, but that seriously stresses the ass and reduces the lifetime of the ass significantly.

    Not many people know this, but asses have indeterminate growth. With proper care an ass will outlive you. If your asses are dying after only a few years, odds are you need to invest in a better tank management system.

    EDIT: Oh c’mon. I didn’t even say ‘detritus’ that time!

    What questions are included? Some would be a steal for $35, but others aren’t even worth 5 OBOs.

    “What is the meaning of life?” isn’t worth much, anyone can ask that, it’s the answers that are worth money.

    “How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?” is worth something for the rhythm and alliteration.

    “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” is worth quite a bit, as is anything by Shakespeare.

    So I’m going to need more information before purchasing the questions mentioned in the ad.
