Thread: Google begins to make the "Other" site shudder

  1. #1

    Default Google begins to make the "Other" site shudder

    Read the recent update about how the other auction site is shuddering about google becoming fully commercial and no longer free, and that "They" will do all the "Heavy Lifting & pay for the fees" and that all we sellers have to do is bring more "Compelling" items to sell....somehow I feel a vaseline moment coming on for we sellers again, I would suspect it will drive many more here to EBID as new sellers.

    What is a vaseline moment?

    (Have I led too sheltered a life?)

    I believe it's something involving a certain body position.

    Found this on Google "The awkward moment when your mum asks "Where's the Vaseline gone?"

    Still have no idea how that relates to Google going commercial.

    Vaseline moment = slippery slope?

    My guess is "a vaseline moment" is alluding to a potentially painful invasion of one's nether regions, i.e., nonconsensual interpersonal congress, initiated by a hostile aggressor. In other other words, more fee extraction by eBoy.

    Agree. I like some of the other interpretations though.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,
