My Wife usually lets me bid on items she considers pointless.
Ex: G.I. Joe Air Craft Carrier $300
Hero Clix Galactus $200
X-Box 360 $400
But when I said hey look, Silver Spider-Man only $200.
Her reply was, "Is it real Silver?"
My answer, "no just paint"
To which she said," how big is it again?"
I show her a minimate
After a quick look at a minimate she says "and you like sleeping on the couch?"
to which I said, "no."
and then she said, "you can do what you want but know where you would be sleeping"
I like sleeping in bed so I'm out of the bid insanity.
