Ebay

Last week, I wrote a post about an Onion writer who sold a joke on eBay. I thought it would be funny to say that the post about the joke for sale was itself also for sale. The winning bidder would receive:

1 .mp3 of me reading the post aloud to my dog.

1 Drawing of the socks I wore while writing this post.

But, I'm stupid, so I actually put it on eBay, and of course, someone bid on it. Actually, three people bid on it, and one person won it for the tidy sum of forty American cents. So I just spent the last hour creating all those things. For $.40.

You're probably wishing you would have bid now, right? I mean, what a bargain. Well, in honor of St. Knut's Day, I'm giving the whole package away free in this blog post. Click past the jump for a whole bunch of ridiculous bullshit.

Wow, Todd. That's pretty cool. CC Insider has so much SEO heat in 09.

Matt, you should Google the words "joke for sale" and see what you get. I did just for shits and googles and was quite impressed with the results.

Matt is in the dog house with me now for not putting in a 40 Cent joke (my 10th favorite rapper).
