Saw this in the paper this week....two words....greedy cow. A mother of a 20 something (her daughter was with her in the photo...and just quietly, they both look pretty well fed so poverty is not an issue) you'd think she'd know better, but some people obviously are that stupid. On the plus side, since it was in the paper with a photo, she's let the whole world know just how greedy a cow she is and I only hope the people she calls friends treat her how she deserves to be treated.

Edit: the article said she paid $40 for the flag new, so she figures the tyre marks are worth $99,960....go figure.

That's about correct... they're Ford tyres so they're worth much more than the flag.

I'm pretty sure the EBay flag is a scam/joke.

Maybe, but it still made page 3 news here. Trivial stuff like the fact the road toll for the second year of speed limits is up almost 50% on the first year at the same time...which itself was one of the worst on record, barely rates a mention. I'm pretty sure I left the paper at work, I can scan the article if you like.
