  • Oh my God! Did you hear, there is an exclusive bust and I'm so screwed because I'll never get it.
  • Oh my God! Did you hear, that exclusive bust is going to be an "un-named" on-line retailer exclusive.
  • Oh my God! How long will we have to wait to hear who this "on-line retailer" is?
  • Oh my God! It's called ShopStarWars.com!
  • Oh my God! It's opening on a Wed and I have to work. How am I going to get out of work to order this bust? I'm so screwed!
  • Oh my God! Is the site opening at midnight or some other time during the day? How do I know? Well, I guess I'll just have to stay up all night and call in sick.
  • Oh my God! It's 12:01 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • Oh my God! It's 12:05 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • Oh my God! It's 12:07 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • Oh my God! It's 12:11:33 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • Oh my God! It's 12:11:41 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • [Editors note, this continues until 4:00am EST]
  • Oh my God! It's 4:00:02 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'm dead tired, I'm going to bed for a little while.
  • Oh my God! It's 9:00 on Wed. and the store isn't open...I'll keep refreshing.
  • Oh my God! It's finally open and I ordered my bust! Wooo-hoo! I can't wait to get it. That was so easy. I can't believe I got my bust coming.
  • Oh my God! It's 11:01 on Wed and I can not wait till my bust gets hear. I wonder how long it will take to ship out?
  • Oh my God! It's 12:01pm on Wed. and the store is down! I wonder how long till I get my bust? I wonder what's up with the store.
  • [Editors note, this continues for the next 24 hours]
  • Oh my God! It's Thursday and the SSW.com is still down and now there are reports that all orders were canceled because of a software glitch. Curse GG, curse SSW.com, curse George for letting them do this with the license! I can't believe I got screwed again.
  • [Editors note, variations on that post occur for the next few days.]
  • Oh my God! SSW.com announced that they are going to send out a gift certificate for $50, free patches and cards. Well, it's the least they can do. I better still be able to get my bust and now it better be free with that gift certificate.
  • Oh my God! SSW.com is calling people to verify their address. I haven't been called yet.
  • (4 minutes later) Oh my God! SSW.com is calling people to verify their address. I haven't been called yet. I'm so screwed, I better send an email. What number are they leaving for callback? I better call them.
  • (4 minutes later) Oh my God! I called SSW.com and my stuff is on it's way.
  • (4 minutes later) Oh my God! I can't believe my free stuff isn't here yet.
  • [Editors note, this continues for the next several weeks]
  • Oh my God! SSW.com is still down, people are getting their free certificates, why hasn't mine come?
  • (4 minutes later) Oh my God! I can't believe my free stuff isn't here yet when others are getting theirs! Curse SSW.com, I better call them to make sure my stuff is still coming. I can't believe they're sending me free stuff and it isn't here yet!
  • (Next day)Oh my God! I can't believe my free stuff is finally here! Now, when will the store open again? Curse GG for the exclusive bust, curse SSW.com for not being open yet, curse them for sending me free stuff and making me wait for it to come, free of charge! They better not screw me out of a bust again! Curse them, I better be able to use this gift certificate for a free, exclusive bust. I better not get screwed on this! Curse them. All of them!
