I’m sure you’ve heard the story before… Guy meets girl. Guy proposes to girl. Guy and girl get married, move in together. Girl makes guy throw away his collection of hockey jerseys. It’s really an age old tale, especially in the northernmost parts of Canada.
On Ebay you can find another example of such a story, thanks to some guy whose name appears to be Carl. It’s a Minnesota Wild jersey, which is said to be brand new. The bidding ended on Saturday at $65.44, so I’m obviously a little late here, but that’s not the issue. The real story lies in the description so humbly provided to us;
“Things used to be so good in Carltown, when I lived by myself and had my jerseys hanging wall to wall. Then I got a girlfriend. We moved in together. Things were not so good in Carltown anymore. We got a new place together called Cathyville. The jerseys are not allowed on the walls anymore. The jerseys are not allowed in the closets anymore. We are no longer to speak of Carltown.”
While we mourn the loss of Carltown, take a gander at another linguistic gem in the shipping details.
“USA Shipping will be $16, Rest of the World contact me.”
That’s an awful lot of emails, Carl. Are you sure you really want all of us to contact you?
