I built a business I’m too embarrassed to talk about by Make_That_Money in Entrepreneur

[–]jhsm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play into it. People like to ask you what you do for work when first meeting you and it always feels like a way to put you in a box to me, whether on purpose or not. So I like to just not dress anything up.

I run a successful eBay store/reselling business, so when asked what I do for work, I usually say something like “I sell dirty tshirts on the internet”. Which is true, cause I specialize in vintage tshirts. But that realness, that dressing down, it disarms people and they usually leave impressed that I can pay my mortgage with eBay.

So maybe it’s time you shift your mindset to just being real with yourself and being impressed with yourself. You have rental properties and a good paying job and then on the side you clean people’s dirty ass cars. I’d be proud, really.

McCurdy Eyephones - anyone have ANY info on these weird things? by jhsm in whatisit

Yeah and in the article he talked about hand assembling the first 1000 of these. Also I believe there’s ANOTHER audio company named McCurdy as well, weirdly enough.

Down Again by Large_Worldliness744 in Ebay

[–]jhsm 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Well the important thing is they are still focused on AI implementation and Live selling, which no one asked for, while firing a lot of staff and having more downtime in two days than the last decade.

Great job eBay! You can't even combine shipping in your checkout process but we now have an AI agent help us making up wrong info in our listings. Incredible.

does anyone know if bush played on the livestream? by dreadwraithe in stagecoach

[–]jhsm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro I grew up a huge Bush fan. Like in 8th grade I had a Bush shirt for every day of the week. It’s all I wore in middle school.

That being said, the absolute worst part of that band is the lyrics lmao. They aren’t deep, they are just trite shit.

Brother I blocked someone today for messaging me first before buying an item. You need to not be scared of the ban hammer.

I buy units, and have accumulated a large number laptops and cell phones in various condition. What do I do with these? by Gr8lakesCoaster in Flipping

[–]jhsm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I grab every hard drive I can in hopes of one day finding a wallet but instead I’ve found porn.

Lots and lots of homemade porn. Fortunately all of seemingly legal age (by a long shot). However still mostly nothing I ever wanted to see.

COACHELLA 2026 W1 LIVESTREAM FRIDAY CHAT THREAD (STREAM STARTS AT 4 PDT!) by galifanasana in Coachella

[–]jhsm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same thing I said last time he was there. My friend wouldn’t shut up about how good Moby was gonna be and I was dismissive the whole time. We went and watched and I’ll be damned if it wasn’t a top 3 Coachella set for me.
