I often play fast and loose.
I bid an item up to below the expected final price, half hoping I get it, half just making others pay the max if they want it.
I have no hate in my heart towards any person or any group of people. There is one exception to this otherwise steadfast rule : early bidders.
I will make it my mission in life to remove your kind from this Earth. Know that if I ever come to power, I will exert it in such a way that it will hinder early bidders to the highest possible degree. I would happily aid in the rise of a dictator if it meant that early bidders would be eradicated; if Stalin had decimated every gene pool that would eventually lead to an early bidder, then he would have had a net positive effect.
You and all others like you are the bane of my existence. I wish nothing but ill fate towards you. Being a good person and being an early bidder are mutually exclusive. You're all rodents of the lowest order.

I should note that artisan early bidders are the best kind of early bidder, since artisans are destined to reach idiotic prices anyway, and seeing them go very high is a little amusing.
