There’s this fantastic croquet sweater on ebay. It’s so hilarious. Check out the back of the sweater. The guy is in a very interesting position behind the girl. Oh yeah! I would wear it to one of our croquet matches as a joke.
The only problem is that the other person bidding on this sweater has a very high proxy bid. It’s already up to $15.53.
It does comfort me that there is someone else out in this world that would wear a sweater featuring croquet. I wonder who it could be. Is this person buying it for real–or like me, as a joke.
Your brother is probably the other guy bidding! -D
I just did some quick sleuthing and it looks like the person against whom you are bidding is also a big croquet fan. The last item s/he won on eBay was The Croquet Player by H.G.Wells [1937″> “Includes dustjacket in good condition with some discoloration. Book in overall good condition.A ghost story by H.G. Wells.”
maybe you have a twin.
maybe the other bidder is a girl, and it’s your soulmate.
I was going to say “He DOES have a twin!” but then I see it is you Laura, who made the comment, and you KNOW he has a twin! : )
that was wit, Tom. that was ironic wit.
wow, i like the idea that the bidder is my soulmate. maybe she’ll share the sweater with me.
email the seller, as if you wanted to ask them a question about shipping, but instead tell them of your mutual croquet obsession. i actually did that with a guy once on ebay who was making/selling paintings that i liked – we chatted about technique, materials, etc.
oh wait, you don’t want to talk to the seller. you want to talk to the other bidder. never mind.
nothing like some croquet lovin’
