Cornflake sells for $1350

[Archbob]

Ok,
WTH? So its shaped like ILL, why doesn it sell for $1350? I mean, don't people have other stuff to blow money on.

Whoever bought it probably ate it the next day.

I think I've seen flakes that better represented Illinois than that.

But they're stimulating the economy!

I agree; taking money from stupid people is most certainly good for the economy.

 

[Abaddon]

Fugin stupid. That "travelling circus" will never make money back on it. Heck, i could knock them up a cornflake shaped however they like for 50 bux!

 

[Godwynn]

Illinois sucks anyway.

I'd piss on that cornflake for free.

Sigh never under estimate the human mind's abilities for stupidity.

 

[Abaddon]

I hate it that I never get to dupe some stupid rich person tho

 

[Babbler]

WFT!

I doesn't even look Jesus!

 

[Abaddon]

Actually. This is ebay. It's news when the person actually coughs up the cash!

Wake me up when someone from eBay sells a cornflake shaped like the prophet Mohammed.

Wake me up when a food item looks like Abraham Lincoln or George Washington.

Does the buyer actually eat Cornflakes? I smell a cornflakes heretic.

I'm sure they would eat a cornflake that looks like a Pokeman .

Cornflakes suck!

Cornflakes suck!

Homeyg sucks for saying cornflakes suck!!

Who sees that when they're eating? Christ, from now on, I'm going to look in everything I eat for something that vaguely looks like something else, and I'll get a few dollars off of it.
And even then, thats pretty abstract to see Illinois in that thing. Or perhaps it's just stupidity.

Frosted flakes are much better, but they still pretty much suck too.

 

[obliterate]

I'm going to buy a packet of Cornflakes right away. How many cornflakes in a packet? 3000? so thats 3000 X $1000 = $3,000,000. I'd be a millionaire! I could scrounge together 50 flakes and make the United States. How much would that sell for? $1,000,000?

 

[FriendlyFire]

Where will the stupidity end ?

Well, my grandfather's sister's half-brother wife (don't ask) once made a cheese in the form of Bulgaria (accidently). And so what? We ate it, goddamit!
