Just in case you are behind, let me get you caught up on the history of the Halo 3 friendships being sold on eBay since early December. First, an auction titled “Halo 3 Xbox Live Friendship 360” was sold by a female seller on eBay named lilperiwinkle. A fierce bidding war broke out (primarily between two people) and it ended up being sold for an astounding $107.50. The next person to offer a “Halo 3 Xbox Live Friendship 360” (sound familiar?) was prozenmotorsports. The text description was almost verbatim to the female’s auction and while this auction was listed on December 7th, there has yet to be a single bid for this odd item offered up by a male seller. I know, surprising. Now we have a new “Halo 3 Xbox Live Friendship 360″ up for grabs, this time offered by eBay seller randomhero4507. And once again, the vast majority of the text is a simple cut and paste from the previous two auctions.
There are two things unique about this third auction. First, this just so happens to be the person who won the first auction offered by the demure young blond (who more than likely is not a demure young blond). Second, included in his offer of Xbox Live friendship is also a pair of his underwear. Oh yes, not only will you get to add this person to your friends list but you will also be receiving a pair of his highly coveted undies. Please, for the love of all things known to man, let them be washed before they are sent. And disinfected. And then burned. Maybe you can request to have the ashes of the underwear instead of the underwear itself.
Will this ever end? And just for the record, if you have to pay for a friendship, I’m pretty sure it’s not a real friendship. I’m just sayin’.
*Thank you to Nick for the tip on the third auction.

Ever wish that you were more popular? New Xbox Live friendship you purchased just isn’t the kind of friend you wanted? Now, new on the market – You can buy me as a better kind of friend: A friend-in-a-pinch! Thats right folks, I’m better than a friend, I’m a FAKE friend! Went -20 in a Team Slayer match and you’re catching flak for it? No sweat amigo, just invite me into the party and my fake friend skills will be hard at work making you look great. You heard me, even though we’ve never really met, your real friends won’t know the difference! I’ll come in and tell stories to your Halo buds of how badass you really are in real life to make you look cooler – like that one time after you qualified for the regional World Series of Video Games tournament with your mad skills, we got attacked behind a 7-11 parking lot by a dude with a knife and you totally saved my ass! Or that one time I went to MLG and almost got to the semi finals but didn’t because I wasn’t playing with you, and you wouldve totally carried my sorry ass like you always do because you’re awesome! Also, I’m distantly related to the legendary Ogre twins, and after that time we all played Team Hardcore with them all night, they’ve totally been asking to play with you again because you rock, and you turn on the skill only when you feel like it baby; Hey, theres no way they can back-up prove me wrong, right? And just for good measure, I’ll tell each and every person on your friend’s list/those met in matchmaking who talk smack to you that you’re hung like a Scandinavian Moose – that’ll teach them to stand up to the man! It’s easy! All you have to do is say that we went to High School together, and I’ll take care of the rest.
AND if you act NOW: I’ll throw in a free gift! A hand-signed personal sanitary product of your choice, yours for the asking, no extra purchase necessary. Choose from a wide variety of used shower hygiene products, under the sink toiletries or if you’re feeling adventerous – something from under my bed, picked at random. Who knows? You might end up with a 1-of-a-kind personally used Jockstrap with MY signature across it, a keepsake letting you remember our fake friendship forever. Don’t delay, bid now!

I think what befuddles me the most is the underwear part. I mean, really, what made this person think “You know what, I’m going to throw my underwear in too… because I know how many people want something I have had sweaty balls in, farted in, and most likely left trackmarks in..”
I doubt he wants his own underwear, so why for the love of god, would he think anyone else would want it.

Hey all it is “RandomHero4507″ and the gamer tag is the same feel free to add me. I thought it was worth a shot to sell my freindship and undies since if you look at my ebay profile I sold my undies alone for 10$ Thanks for the shout out and see you on PWNED.COM
