Every couple of months, I feel this weird compulsion to head over to craig's list and see what the morons there are up to. The chaos on the site never fails to boggle my mind. I've seen plenty of people who claim they're able to sell items on the site and that it's better than eBay, but it just looks like the shittiest classifieds in the world. The sort you'd see printed up in those free papers that hobos try to sell to tourists for a dollar on the streets.

Anyway, the only redeeming part of the entire site is the 'best of' section where they pull and itemize the weirdest entries made in the recent past. That's where I found out about the catbus.

I HAVE A 1995 MO' VAN THAT GOT TRANSFORMED INTO THIS CATBUS. I BROUGHT IT TO A SHOPS AND I WAS LIKE HEY, CAN YOU TURN THIS INTO A CATBUS? SO THEY DID. THEN THAT DAY I DROVE IT HOME. THE CAT BUS ONLY HAS 50K, WHICH ARE ALL HIGHWAY MILES AS I DROVE IT TO WORK 2 DAYS A WEEK AND THAT WAS IT. IT'S IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE AND ALL THE FUR IS STILL ALL THERE. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS A CAT ON IT. IM ONLY ASKING 2900 FOR THE CATBUS BECAUSE ITS REALLY FURRY AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE GET SICK ON IT.

Well, you can't tell me that's not pretty fucked up. And yet....I have to admit that there something interesting about the idea of someone driving this thing to work, or anywhere for that matter. It's almost like having an Oscar Meyer weinermobile. Still, I'm sure that this is one of those things best admired from a far. It's no surprise that people sometimes 'get sick on it'.
