It was an auction to have this guy break up with your boyfriend for you - I thought it was kindof funny!

It said he would call your boyfriend from a payphone and break up with him, plus send him a 3 page letter as to why he was such a bad boyfriend.
okay that's pretty dumb....people can be real idiots sometimes

I originally found that auction via Neil Gaiman's blog and he has thousands of readers, so chances ebay may have gotten wind of it and shut it down.

1) You don't pay actors outrageous salaries. If you offer a payoff at the end, you pay $1 million for the season and not that or more per episode.

2) More than enough people willing to make an a** of themselves for money or just to be on TV.

3) People keep watching.

4) Apparently we haven't run out of gross or "outrageous" things to eat.

5) No one has had an original idea since the fall of the Berlin wall.

6) Fox will buy anything. "Now, son, they do some quality programing, too." -HJS

The guy was offering his services to break up with someone for you, including a 3 page letter explaining why you're breaking up, and a phone call from a payphone. The information now isn't funny, but it was the delivery of his offer to do so that was funny. One of those "you have to see it" deals.
