rivercityvibe   “Puerile, smutty, schoolboy nonsense” – My Mom

Every now and again we stumble upon a Craigslist Classic. A post on that notorious site which has been written with humor rather than commerce in mind. You have to look carefully, but occasionally, in among the ads by truckers looking for prostitutes to murder, there is real comedy, which lightens your soul and convinces you that maybe, just maybe, life is not shit all the time*, after all.

Well an example of just such a post has appeared on our local Craigslist. Check out this legend, who goes by the made-up name “Pat”:

The question is, did it sell yet? And, perhaps more importantly, who bought it?

*The prevailing view in the media and elsewhere.
