Funny Ebay listing...

While surfing Ebay tonight for Mini stuff, I saw this and just had to share it...
And - you have to picture this - it was written in HUGE red letters...

"I KNOW YOUR PAIN,FASION CAR WITH LOUSY KEY SHELL,THE LOCK BUTTON ALWASY BROKEN AFTER DAILY USING,PAY HUGE TO DEALER?OR JUST REPLACE THE BRAND NEW MINI COOPER S LIMILTED KEY SHELL WITH CHROME WING ON UNLOCK BUTTON.SAVE BIG TODAY,AND HAVE A NICE AND CLEAN KEY NOW."

How did he know I would be in pain just reading his description?

You translated it

The true version would be

"All your key are belong to us"

I think I have figured out the ebay "seller" - cleverly hiding behind poor diction, this crafty thief is hoping to ensnare as many Mini's as possible, and thereby rule over MiniDom and his Minions...

that's right, it's none other than.....

















BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!
