Hi. As a viewer from Germany, i am afraid, that i didn't understood the last word Bender said, before the bomb exploded. Was it "antiqueing"? If so, then what the H-Word does it mean? Thank you for answers... Triple, a guy from Germany

Ainoth (too lazy to pick a dictionairy)
ok they are both right. it depends on the context. since bender said the word alone we cant be sure which meaning it is in this case. according to the dictionary it means "to cause to resemble an antique" This isn't always done to scam people. A lot of people do it to be crafty. the sense of "going shopping for antiques" is more modernly used i think, more of a slang. Where i live we have a lot of antique stores and so people use that word a lot. you go all day and hit all the different stores (and possibly auctions) to see what kinds of cool stuff and good deals you can get. so yea what Nixorbo said
