Sometimes you see something for sale online that makes you think, "Wow, what can't you buy online?"

There's very little that you can't buy online these days, as you may know from your own time perusing Facebook Marketplace, eBay, or Craigslist. No matter how obscure, useless, or silly the item is, you're certain to find it online somewhere. 

You can always tell when a seller is strapped for cash. They'll have a page full of listing of random trash from around their home that they've tried to assign some value to. Yes, I am talking about the person who's trying to sell a large handful of Taco Bell mild sauces to make a quick buck. Those are free and plentiful my friend, you simply cannot sell it. I'm also thinking about the one dude who's trying to sell a quadruple peanut, which is really just a triple peanut, neither of which is really even that rare. 

I get the desperation to make money at any cost to one's dignity, but there's gotta be a better way than posting things no one in the whole world will buy. Some folks are trying to make the best of a bad situation. Remember when, a few years ago, a big push to eliminate plastic waste made stores get rid of their bags? Well, one person framed a plastic bag (not even in a cute way, just saying) because it was the last one given out. Sigh… It's definitely not worth $250, but kudos for trying to make a quick buck I guess. I enjoy the way they've narratively framed it as the last plastic bag, as if that's not something you can still find at lots of stores anyway. If you asked nicely, they might even give you a bag for free! 

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever own a home of my own to furnish in the style of my choosing. I'm only in my very early 30s, and home ownership is now something you do in your late 50s or 60s, so there's still time for me yet. I need space to buy the "L" from the Chipotle sign and have room to display it. A guy can dream, right? I could furnish a room with the L and perhaps some of the decrepit furniture that's also for sale here. You gotta walk the walk — make your guests sit on a futon that'll crumble into 489,578,244,092 crumbs the first time you sit on it. Taking an L is a lifestyle, baby!
