Looks like it.

ETA: Sort of funny, sort of not. Wonder if it’s an experiment.

I can’t finish… It all seemed normal until reaching the Additional Rules/Conditions area… then I went berserk. Also the mandatory drug test seems a little over-done. What is this, a job?

Craigslist never ceases to amaze me… To have a good laugh I’ll often read the Best of Craigslist section…

Man, that was hilarious.

I’m with the others; it has to be a joke. Even if it’s not, it’s still totally funny.

5am Wakeup Call, Visitors’ Log, Tenant ID Bracelet…?! Heheheh.

I’m thinking it’s social commentary of some sort.

At least I hope so.

No personal belonging in the exercise yard. So the Pastor is into nude exercise.🙂

They locked up a husband and wife religious nut job from Poynette in 2007. I suspect they would have posted a listing like this. I base that on the way the trial went and the printed statements in the paper.

I agree it has to be a hoax.

Still quite funny.

• You do not participate in lascivious deviant sexual behavior  
• You do not choose alternative lifestyles as your lifestyle

These two are highly laughable if you know that area of Vancouver. One of the higher concentrations of gays and lesbians in the city.

• You do not smoke, drink or take drugs. Mandatory drug screening required.

Yah, good luck with that. 😛

Isn’t Broadway and Commerical basically a Skytrain station?

The 11:30p lights out confuses me. Wouldn’t a good Christian want his tenant to get sufficient (more than 6 hours) sleep? Besides, why would anyone need to be up after dark, unless they were engaging in lascivious deviant sexual behaviour?

Most of those rules sound like prison rules.

Is it possible they’re reprinting the rules of the local prison?
