1. Soul...
I tried to buy souls in high school for $20 each, cash money. All they had to do was sign over the rights of ownership to their immortal souls. Everyone was sort of freaked out by it.

5. Like when Milhouse bought Bart's soul on "The Simpsons".......
that was a pretty good episode.

What were you going to do with all of those souls, sell them on eBay too?

10. Are you still buying?
I'm interested in selling mine. I work in HR so it's hardly even used.

2. Been Done
He won't even get any publicity out of it. The first time someone sells his soul or the box of nothing, it might be cute, the 900th time it's just a waste of listing fees.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

4. Obviously it's not considered a body part
I was going to sell my urine on ebay for drug users who wouldn't pass a drug test for a job or whatever. I guaranteed cleanliness in more ways than one and they told "no body parts allowed to be sold on ebay". I am thinking about another method, but their stance sort of befuddled me. We're going to call it JP's clean pee and we will keep it legal, from a tax standpoint.

6. These come up every so often
Usually they're deleted after an hour or two. Occassionally they'll get a bid, even...

7. If it was cheaper
I sold mine for a pack of juicy fruit and a bottle of snapple in college.

15. Hey Now
Is that a dig on me or on the value of souls?

16. Neither, just giving you a hard time
Your posts are always worth a read, some of the funniest shit on the board. If you "get" them, that is.

:7

I posted a smiley, even though I hate smileys.

17. No problem
I though tI got a good deal. I had some bad drymouth from a hangover that morning. The gum and iced tea were way worth a useless soul.
Faust got nothin' on me.

8. Better than selling it to the company store, I guess.....
"SIXTEEN TONS"

By Merle Travis

Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
Muscle and blood, skin and bones...
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong

Chorus
You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' and the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal and
the straw boss said, "well bless my soul!"
.....you loaded...

(Chorus)

I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain
fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in a cane-brake by an old mama lion
can't no high-toned woman make me walk no line

(Chorus)

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't get you, then the left one will

(Chorus)

You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store.
