Tiki torture is finding an illusive or rare mug on Ebay that you have been searching for or which has more of a sentimental importance to you than just another mug to throw up on a shelf and forget. Perhaps the auction title is vague enough that you start believing you're the only one to discover this "holy grail" and you're probably going to be the only one to bid. You wait, place your bid and when it's all over and done with you find out that that due to an upcoming mortgage and car payments your conservative maximum bid left you completely out of the running! Damn you bank account! Why have you forsaken me!!! :)
