Everyone reacts differently to an embarrassing situation. Some cower; some brush it off; some lash out at the other party even though it was clearly their fault. As a wise old man once said: “It’s just how the world works.”
But every so often, you get an example so out of place, so ludicrous and so unexpected that you can’t help but wonder:
Is that really how the world works?
Are they the reason why aliens haven’t landed in Yishun yet?
Meet Gar
Gar is a live-auction bidder.
(If you have no idea what the hell a live-action bidder is, it’s just my term to describe someone who bids during live stream auctions. Like someone who bought one of those elusive S-Hooks during the now famous Ah Lian’s online auctions, for example.)
And according to his Facebook profile, he’s a CEO of a company. Anyways, my handsome-but-fat boss is also the CEO of Goody Feed Pte Ltd, but he can’t even afford a COE. Okay, moving on.
And this one fateful day, he (not my mean boss: I’m referring to Gar) happened to be attending Jovi’s live-auction (which was essentially a clear-out sale due to them changing offices) and took a fancy to a wireless Ant-man mouse on sale. Like anyone else would do, he bidded for it.
Below is a series of screenshots showcasing the ‘done deal’:
Seems pretty routine so far. A buyer wants something, and the seller complies.
That’s business in a nutshell, guys.
But it seems that the nutshell isn’t as sweet as one would have thought.
A little sour, in fact.
You didn’t read it wrong. Gar, the buyer, effectively got a “verbal ban” on bidding. Well, not exactly, but more of a warning.
And it seems that he didn’t take well to it.
Daddies are the popular term nowadays, I see.
But putting that aside, the conversation soon restored a bit of civility.
Although it soon got ‘weird’.
The admin, Jovi, evidently didn’t, however, as she posted a convo on Facebook criticizing Gar for his rudeness.
And Gar evidently didn’t appreciate it. Employing the classic ‘taunt and get’ method, Gar tried to get Jovi to agree to a classic ‘revenge match’
Boxing style.
Karma’s a bitch
Following the revelation, Netizens tried spamming the man with messages of their own, with some actually dialling his phone number.
Attempts to contact him directly, however, have failed.
The man has since deactivated his Facebook account.
Incidentally, here are some comments left on Jovi’s Facebook post:
And apparently, there’s even alleged firsthand feedback on how Gar plies his trade as a boss.
But well, if there’s one thing for sure.
He sure has a bossy attitude huh?
I’m so glad my boss is much better. At least he doesn’t even know what live-bidding is, and given his fat size, he would have sank into the boxing ring when he stepped on it (sorry boss, I don’t regret it).
