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'.

Here's another gem from Craig's List:



My first thought reading this was WTF are cat hats? I know that people often choose to dress up their dogs in ridiculous looking outfits but I hadn't heard of a corresponding fetish for cats. Not to mention that a hat would seem to be the last thing you would want to try to strap on a cat seeing as they're usually neurotic as all fuck and will bite/scratch at a drop of a hat. Ha, no pun intended.

Lucky for all of us, the hapless individual saw fit to include photos of some of the hats, still sitting on the head of what I can only assume is the late Snowman. By the way, was anyone really surprised that this dingus lives in California?

( On to the cat hats )

I don't spend any time on Craig's List but I'm always appreciative when someone points out one of the weirdos there.



Think it's worthwhile to message her? I can tell her I look like Ganon and I'm interested in touching her triforce.

Welp, I'm tired and I have the time to sleep but after less than 3 hours abed, here I am again. Feh. It's ecspecially obnoxious since I've got a full day tommorrow of dungeoncrawling over at the Bills' and it's not like I'll be able to nap during the day or anything. I just can't seem to get back to sleep for some unknown reason.

So since I can't sleep, I was looking through LJ and stumbled over a secret from the postsecret RSS feed I thought was pretty hilarious.



It reminded me of a time way back when I was reading wonkette and found an entry soon after the '04 election about a personals ad she found posted on craigslist.

Anyone up for some political sex play?

I’m a very good looking and intelligent white male looking for a Republican couple to dominate and humiliate me. Make me blow him while you tell me what a bunch of losers Democrats are. Make me clean her up after you’re done with her while she tells me how much better Republicans are in the sack.

I’m picky about who I play with and I expect you to be too. I’m very good looking, discreet, STD/HIV free, non-smoker, down to earth, and I’m for real — YOU BE THE SAME.

I will provide pictures and further description once I know you’re for real. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Male/Female couples only please — and please be real Republicans. Phonies and trolls will be ignored.

Silly hippies.
