Is it just me, or does this seem like it’s written in LOLCat?
Seriously.

Um, dude.
I don’t know quite how to frame this.
But. I’m going to try.
You’re doing it wrong. This is “Missed Connections,” not “I’m Going To Cut You.” Craigslist doesn’t offer the latter.

Sure, we all liked the Hitchcock riff that was Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder in Silver Streak.
We may have even sat through the entirety of James Cameron’s bloated Titanic.
But I think we can all agree that $50 for a pair of VHS cassettes you could get at Goodwill for $2.00 is a bit stupid.
(Also, wouldn’t you have to go back in time to 1987 to buy a VCR anymore?)

I have no idea what this post from the New York City “Wanted” board is really about, but from a glance, it looks like somebody’s attempt to start a specialty brothel. Or maybe a plants, chemicals, and backgrounds store. I mean, haven’t we all needed a background or air line at some point?

You know, I’m not a naturally suspicious fellow, but:

Maybe this will be a new feature, maybe not, but please feel free to send in the “best” Craigslist posts you can find to kevin(at)getofftheinternet(dot)org. Today, we feature what I can only suspect is a young man’s sincere hope that he can pay for his pre-order of Grand Theft Auto 4 by recycling a gift he got from his Nana. Poor old woman doesn’t know anything about your Kintendos or Space Stations…
