Why are all of these old threads being revived?

THIS THREAD IS SO FUNNY!

It's not just Craigslist with scammers and weirdos with too much time on their hands. My husband sells on Gunbroker.com and sometimes we'll get emails saying stuff like, "Why are you selling xxxx for that much? So and so is selling it for [whatever] dollars less." It's a good thing that it's his gig and not mine- he's laid back and just shakes his head and deletes those. I would not be nice. BULLY for so and so, maybe he got his xxxxx a lot cheaper than we did! So go buy from him instead of wasting my time, dude. Sorry, but sending emails to people saying you think they're charging too much is stupid and rude and will get you nowhere. Asking someone politely if they'll come down on a price is one thing. Being a butthead about it is another. We also got a check in the mail from someone saying they had won an auction. It was waaaaaay more than the auction price and was from some attorney's office in another state. We found their number and told them about it, and they had closed the account a few months before because of the same sort of scam. The person who had sent it knew it was here because I had to sign for it and kept sending emails asking when we were going to cash the check and send him the remainder. When Hades freezes over!

Maybe someone just found it and wanted to comment and didn't pay attention to the date. Why does it matter? Is there some rule that says an old thread can't be revived? It's not locked, it's not controversial, so I don't see the problem.

There's not a problem. Just something I noticed. Sorry.

I've just been out in this hot humid weather, came in tired and soaked with perspiration and sat down to cool off under my ceiling fan conveniently situated over my computer chair. When I get up from here I have a full days worth of tasks ahead. THANK YOU FOR REVIVING THIS THREAD; IT WAS A GREAT LAUGH JUST WHEN I NEEDED IT!!!!

Aren't basalisks hatched out of rooster eggs? I could take care of all my neighbor's dogs and that pesky fox that's been hanging around...

The problem with a basilisk, is you gotta be real careful about where you point that thing!
