Going once, going twice, gone
This is a pretty funny string on comments that went on one night on Facebook. Thought I’d share. It started with a status update from Chris.
Chris Ngiau
It’s an eBay garage sale weekend for me.
Shauna Lim
whatcha putting on ebay?

Chris Ngiau
Lots of junk in our garage. CD changer, VCRs, air rifles, stereos, TV’s. Stuff like that. All old, still usable but taking up space.

Guns? You got any guns? How about chainsaws? No? Machetes? Sayyyyy….you don’t have Corey Haim’s dead body in your garage do you?
April 17 at 2:55am
Jeremy Chin
Hey, you know those sexy mannequins you used to own? You sellin’ those?
April 17 at 3:00am
Manas Datta
What about those “special” videotapes? The ones with all the instructions for the sexy mannequins?
April 17 at 3:02am
Jeremy Chin
I’ve watched those tapes. My favourites are volumes 5-7. Volume 5: Making love to a dummy for dummies. Volume 6: Bend her like Beckam. Volume 7: Stiff like your mannequin. Everything after volume 7 is beyond my level of difficulty.

These are turning into real collectors items among plastophiliacs. Though I wouldn’t trust anyone who put up an eBay listing describing them as “sparingly used”.
April 17 at 3:23am
Jeremy Chin
“Well conditioned” might be a better way to describe it. The ones I’d stay away from are the ones which read, “Animal Tested”
April 17 at 3:30am
Jeremy Chin
Chris is going to wake up in Detroit and say, I needa get me some new friends.
April 17 at 3:32am
Manas Datta
He’s gonna blame YOU for having ME on his friend list!
April 17 at 3:33am
Manas Datta
That is – if we still qualify as being “friends”.
April 17 at 3:34am
Jeremy Chin
And to think that he once thought that only his mannequins could give him a hard time.
April 17 at 3:39am
Manas Datta
You mean when he was giving the mannequins a “hard” time.
April 17 at 3:40am
Jeremy Chin
Hey Chris, just wondering, are you also selling the tranny dolls… the ones you used to refer to as the Manlyqueens.
April 17 at 3:41am
Manas Datta
And do you have any Limited Edition Shemale-Barbies? Sorry, I don’t know what kind of a childhood you had. Jeremy might be able to shed more light on this.
April 17 at 3:42am
Chris Ngiau
Jeez I leave you two alone for 20 minutes and the string’s like a page long lol.
April 17 at 3:43am
Chris Ngiau
And you two sure know a LOT about mannequins!!!! I would just settle for videotapes
April 17 at 3:45am
Manas Datta
Hey – we’re not the ones with 80s classic sex-dolls in our garages.
April 17 at 3:46am
Manas Datta
Honestly, I’m just bored. I’m watching “V” online – and the new version is just not as good as the original one.
April 17 at 3:48am
Jeremy Chin
For all of Chris’s other (normal)friends out there, I’d like to state that we were just having some fun with him and that Volume 7 doesn’t really exist.
April 17 at 3:55am
Manas Datta
Yeah, the series ended at Volume 6. Jeremy completely made up the thing about Volume 7.
April 17 at 3:57am
Jeremy Chin
Manas, are you watching “V” the series, or is “V” an abbreviation of the thing you’re watching.
April 17 at 4:01am
Jeremy Chin
It’s 4 am here. I’m going to bed. Ya, ya, I’m one of them weird people who wakes up in the middle of the night, commits a bunch of criminal offences, and is oblivious to it all the following day.
April 17 at 4:03am
Manas Datta
I wish I was watching the thing of which V is an abbreviation – but unfortunately, I’m actually just watching “V”. Seriously. Someone just painted a big V on the street outside, and I can’t take my eyes off it. Not very exciting.
April 17 at 4:03am
Manas Datta
Well – I’m not one to go around committing crimes by myself. My work is done as well here – I better get something to eat – about 9pm here.
April 17 at 4:05am
Manas Datta
Oh man, I can’t wait till Chris updates his Facebook status again
April 17 at 4:05am
Jeremy Chin
Ya, if there was a big V outside on the street I think I too would not be able to take my eyes of it. Ok… I’m done. Promise. Going to bed now like I said I would.

Chris Ngiau
*face palm*
April 17 at 7:12am
Jeremy Chin
Ok… what you do with your palm is your own business buddy.
April 17 at 10:02am
Manas Datta
I guess there’ll be a lot of “palming” once the mannequins are sold.
April 17 at 8:35pm
Jeremy Chin
Was just wondering… How did Palm Springs get its name?
April 18 at 12:20am
Manas Datta
Now I’m afraid to ask – how do they make palm oil?
April 18 at 3:17am
Jeremy Chin
Malaysia was once the world’s largest producer of palm oil, but I think it has slipped to number 2, after Indonesia. Am guessing they just have way more palms in that country.
April 18 at 4:30am
Manas Datta
Seriously…33 comments…
April 18 at 4:50am
Jeremy Chin
And it’s been mainly just the 2 of us, plus that Shauna person, who by now, like the rest of Chris’s friends, are no longer his friends after learning the true reason behind his weirdness. I guess we’re his two remaining friends on the planet… the two who will stick by him in hard times and in flacid.
April 18 at 4:58am
Jeremy Chin
It’s 5 am here. Have committed my crimes against humanity and will go back to sleep now.

Manas Datta
Yes Jeremy – it’s up to us to help him stand all, overCOME all obstacles, penetrate the impenetrable and blow away the opposition.
April 18 at 5:21am
Manas Datta
Let’s put our palms together in a moment of silent contemlation.
April 18 at 5:21am
Manas Datta
Contemplation dammit.
April 18 at 5:21am
Chris Ngiau
WTF. 40 comments? LOL
