Another fake poliwog

#1

Post by Onionman »

Up on ebay now are three fake poliwogs from the same seller. A link to the first one up for sale is below.

The seller is wxjgxp520927 from, you guessed it, China!
The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

I'm sure if the guy lived someplace where they could do something about it they would. if the guy were to get booted from ebay I am sure he would just open a new account in another well thought out and easy to remember sellers ID
I believe in safe queens , they do exist!

There isn’t any symbolism. The sea is the sea. The old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark are all sharks no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is ****.
~Ernest Hemingway (describing The Old Man and the Sea)
