  • FUCK THESE FAG ASS COMMERCIALS

  • Somebody wants attention...

  • i know how he feels, man.... i still remember that day i'm X told me that she just dont want me anymore..... how could someone live with everything he owns that had so much memories with it. shit man... he is one lucky guy... i wish him luck!

  • I don't think it's crazy at all.... it's kinda sad. I'm not joking when I say he should write a book! I would most defiantly read it!

  • Uhm if you want a new life in Australia and he wants one ellsewhere, why not? YOu get a house, car, job etc.

  • he didn't actually get 2.2million

    there was a glitch on EBay that allowed unregistered users to bid

    in the end after they took out all the unregistered bids he actually only got about 380k

  • he got 2.2 million dollars i mean like he can buy everything he had and MORE THAT WAS a not so smart but kinda smart move

  • SAD!!!
