Selling your soul to the devil..ever think about it?

    I was checking a cool wiki article about a short story about a farmer selling his soul to the devil for seven years of prosperity before being taken to hell. In the story the farmer actually survives and doesn't go to hell in end, well until he actually dies maybe(if there is heaven and hell and there is a god).
    Most of you have heard about about the blues guitarist Robert Johnson selling his devil to play the blues.

    I remember a few years ago saying out loud I'd sell my soul for wealth one night drunk walking home alone. I was calling out the devil but he never showed the big f*cking eejit.

    Would you sell your soul(wtf is a soul anyway) for something?

    What would it be?

    I would, but there's not much of a market for second-hand souls :(

    If I believed in having a soul and therefore in eternal life, I think that would be a pretty bad bargain.

    So, no.

    Devil tried to take my soul once. I told him

    I'll take your bet; and you're gonna regret
    'cause I'm the best there's ever been

    It looks like a lot of stars sold their souls to RainMan, how do they do it, does he have a telephone number or something ?

    When I was growing up it would have been women and sex. I was brought up to believe in a devil but he seemingly was on holidays at the time so he never got my request.

    Norw of course, I no longer believe in either of them.

    The worst thing about selling your soul to the devil is that automatic doors don't work properly for you after that.

    It's really embarrassing bumping into them when you're trying to stride confidently into a 24 hour sex shop.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,766 ✭✭✭Bongalongherb


    Ah, all I have to do is summon it.

    Especially if you have a boner at the time.

    If you dance with the devil, you wait for the song to stop.

    If someone offered me a decent amount of money for my "soul", I'd take it and laugh all the way to the bank

    I bought a product from Apple once. Does that count?

    Tried to sell my soul for a night with Scarlett Johansson, however the big man said my soul was too tainted.

    Bastard!

    The Devil must be real. I've posted in this thread earlier.

    Anyway I'm out doing my walk and am using some of the outdoor gym equipment and up saddles this gorgeous blond Lithuanian girl in her 20s and we exercise together for a bit.

    Heart is still going.

    Watch out for what ye say here lads, the OP was probably working for the big man. :eek::cool::P:D

    That's one of my favourite episodes too and I think it's been 20 years since I last saw it.
