Bit of a tangent, but on ads for machinery.

 

’no time wasters’

 

1: I will waste your time if I like, you saying no time wasters will not put me off one bit.

 

2: It’s a second hand stump grinder, not a Ferrari, no one lives in a dreamworld about owning a pedestrian grinder.

 

3: ‘Relisted due to time waster’ Take a deposit before marking as sold you muppet.

 

[Mick Dempsey]

‘Only 30 hours from new’

 

It is an underpowered piece of crap that I regret buying, hoping to find someone as stupid as me.
