o reason not the need
Dear self,
Even if you had the money*, you do not need** to own a pair of Hannibal Lecter's leather motorcycle pants. The fact that they may*** have once enfolded Mads Mikkelsen's lower body in a tight yet caressingly gentle embrace is not relevant.****
*Yeah, the bid right now is $10. But once the auction really gets going, these things are going to sell for hundreds if not thousands of dollars.
**I do, actually. My soul needs them.
***They're genuine props, but that doesn't mean they were necessarily worn. They could have been a spare pair.
****I do wonder, with all the costume items but this one rather in particular, about the proportion of bidders who are fans/collectors vs. the proportion who are pervs. Not that those categories can't overlap!
