I sold my X-box today....

to some guy who responded to my craigslist ad. I met him in the Jewel parking lot. At first I felt kind of bummed that I wasn't getting as much money for it as I had hoped. Then I met the guy. He was the comic book store owner from the Simpsons. To a tee. At least 40. Ponytail with a mostly bald head, check. Front seat of his car stacked to the window with comic books in plastic protector sheets, check. Nerdy, elitist attitude, check. Sixty extra pounds around the waist, check. He paid me $60 in sweaty, crumpled fives and singles. Suddenly I was glad I had gotten rid of the x box...
