A mythical being that will magically appear and render assistance. No one knows what help looks like as no one has ever seen it. I think it isn't fair to blame help for promises that other people make, and help can't keep.
That cabinet looks to big and heavy to move by myself, don't worry you'll have help. I'm not qualified to do this job, don't worry you'll have help. I don't have enough time for this project, don't worry you'll have help.

Get the help mug.A $5.00 item that costs $10.00. May be of higher quality than a $4.00 item but not enough to justify it's price. Usually a fad or status item like a $500 Gucci purse.

Get the overpriced mug.A fictional crooked ebay seller,from Mr. Whipple in the old Charmin commercials , in other words a seller of ass-wipe. Mr Whipple will send the wrong items, and when contacted admit that it is his mistake. Mr Whipple will then offer to give a refund provided you send the items back. Paying $10 to return a $10 item is not worthwhile, and Mr Whipple counts on this. If you point out it is his mistake, and he should pay to fix it Mr Whipple will tell you to read his return policy. If you threaten to give him negative feedback if he doesn't set things right Mr Whipple will shoot back that you are trying to blackmail him , and he is filing a complaint with ebay. By now you realise that Mr Whipple has done this many times before, and the $10 isn't worth the hassle. Signs of Whippledom an item is listed at a good price and gets no bidders item is re-listed at a better price and still no takers. Buyers who would be interested have been burned by the seller,or know about his past scams won't touch it. The seller has some really nasty feedback, and his standard reply is I offered to return their money. A seller whose refund policy is the buyer is responsible for all shipping no exception's deal where the items' cost is cheap and the shipping expensive. What to do. If it makes you feel better leave nasty feedback (like it really does any good), warn your friends, accept the fact that you have been cheated by a pro, and forget about it.
The seller sent the wrong stuff, and expects me to spend $10 for shipping to get a $10 refund, Mr Whipple strikes again. This is the third time I got cheated by Mr Whipple, how many of those guys are there ?

Get the mr whipple mug.A junk car or truck ,that is driven like a tank by its' retarded driver. The driver forces his way into traffic, cuts people off, and does scary moves because he doesn't care if his ride gets into a wreck. Most battlecar drivers have no plates, no drivers license , no insurance ,and no brains. Normal drivers give way because they don't want a wreck.

Get the battlecar retardia mug.Someone who drives away without paying for their gas. Some try to claim it's a form of social justice because "the oil companies are ripping us off." Basically it's stealing from the guy who owns the local gas station.
