I’m not…really sure where to start with this one. Could it be the “I’m deeply in love with my girlfriend” part? Maybe it’s the fact that $300 for living in a living room isn’t a great deal for the neighborhood, when you can easily find a room of your own for $350 if you’re looking. Maybe it’s the fact that they’re going back and forth between the “three quarter house and rehab, but still go out to the bar LOL”.
No, no, perhaps it’s the fact they wake up bright 'n early to make it to the Methadone clinic. :eek: Ohhhhh! Excellent! Where can I sign up for this living arrangement!
Ah, screw it. The funniest part is the air conditioner in the bathroom.
I like the part that started out, “For those of you who don’t know, my gf Brandi and I are in luv.” As if this is a national news alert that most people would know about.
I don’t use Craig’s List but I have a couple from the weekly county “Home Magazine” which serves a similar purpose in that I usually crack up at some poorly written ad.
Gestalt, didn’t you like the methadone clinic part?!
Jimmy, I’m glad I clicked on it, since the best part is far and away “The working title of the painting is, ‘A Commentary and the Future…and Mythology’ but I’m fairly open to suggestions.”
Bahahahaha…who commissions a painting and then writes the title themself!?
Is it normal for lesbians to mention their significant other all the time?
In my quest for hilarious ads on CL, I didn’t find much.
A bit too specific. Then again, I see online dating ads all the time where a woman is looking specifially for a police officer, fireman, or soldier, so why not?
Craigslist is very new to the UK and hardly anyone uses it. However, I did find this, allegedly in Oxford: Goats for sale. Clearly educational standards have slipped at the university.
This is pretty strange. The first part is all, “I’m seeking the love of my life,” and the second part is all, “Also someone to rake leaves and do my bookkeeping,” all while emphasizing “financial security” like it’s an arranged marriage. Which, it kind of is.
Wait a minute, he’s going to extend me the umbrella of financial security but I have to put my own gas in the car?
I wish I could think of enough keywords to find this really funny Craigslist roomate ad that went around a while ago - it was all AWESOME and made me kind of want to live with the guy.
Definitely a winner (if all the rest wasn’t enough to convince you)
“i am primarily attracted to exquisitely sensitive women. i adore femininity and all that comes with being a girlie-girl. i am an extremely sensitive male who is an “emotional builder/giver”, and i perform my best in a relationship with a woman who is seeking the love of her life to fill a “void” or internal need. I find it exciting and challenging to unravel the mysteries of a feminine mind.”
What I would consider minimal for living in a living room would be a particular ikea sofa bed, set up with a wardrobe at the one end, and some wall mount cupboards above it, with locks on some of the cabinet work. [that particular sofa turns into a double bed, and there is a storage compartment internally for storing the bedding while not in use.]
Although I hate to admit it, the whole rehabbing while still going out drinking is a huge flag to me. Not having any personal locking private space really really bothers me. I can not see this turning out well for anybody, to be honest.
