Better Stock Up Now…
…because eBay is about to cancel the selling of curses, potions, and other useful magiks and whatnot:
Looking a for a spell that will make your partner lust for you and only you? Or a black magic revenge incantation to curse your enemy? Or maybe a good old-fashioned $51 demon-obliterating potion that promises to “destroy heavy demonic energies, entities, beings and forces” is all you need.
Come September, though, you’ll no longer find these quick fixes on eBay. Beginning Aug.30, the online auction site will ban the sale of curses, spells, hexes, magic, prayers, blessing services, magic potions, healing sessions and more.
But why, Why, WHY?
“We are discontinuing a small number of categories within the larger metaphysical subcategory, as buyers and sellers have told us that transactions in these categories often result in issues that can be difficult to resolve.”
Sigh. Benny-the-Rat just cornered the market…

Well darn. With eBay out of the equation I guess I’ll have to go on Craigslist to find a witch doctor to poke more pins into a voodoo doll of Mitt Romney. Or into Mitt Romney, they’re both stuffed suits without a brain so how can you tell the difference?

I imagine they got a Cease And Desist from the RCC for horning in on the Dispensations and Indulgences racket.
hmpf. Zombie, note to self: read the WHOLE post before commenting, INCLUDING the last line.
Double double, toil and struggles
Ebay curses are for Muggles
Round about the caldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.—
If you have none, don’t be glum
Check on Craig’s list, they have some
Or order some from Amazon
They’ll deliver them a-non
(cackle, cackle: “entrails” “de-liver”, get it)
So, 13 shopping days left. Plenty of time, but stock up now.
A few weeks ago, a woman came into the store where my oldest son works part time. She handed him a small vile filled with a liquid and told him to sleep with it under his pillow. She explained that he would dream of her.
Now.. he doesn’t even know her AND, she’s about my age. My son is only going to be 19 on the 25th of this month.
Perhaps she bought her spell on ebay too!
((Hugs))

Laura -
Howdy – nice to see you again! It doesn’t surprise me that you would have handsome sons and beautiful daughters (and not need magic to do that) That said, it’s time for him to watch The Graduate, don’t you think?

It does kind of sound like Benny the Rat is about to crank up the old Exorcisms and Dispensations rackets again. I suppose he’s got to establish an incoming cash flow to replace all that Heavenly Lucre blown on settling court cases against paedophile priests.
Damn. Back to Benny? eBay was way easier. Hard to take news like this on a Friday. man.
