You keep loving the snark, I'll keep writing it.
I usually start these fun little trips to bitchy-land with daily perusal of the "furniture" category of my local Craigslist. Most of it is boring ugly stuff but sometimes there is something to take note of.
Pick up the tissue, Slob!
Generally speaking, I am sufficiently grossed out by the faceless cooties of strangers lurking in upholstered furniture. Thanks to this listing I at least have an armpit AND a face to go with the pestilence.
$50 is way too much for couch cushions full of that guys stinky gas, don't you think?
I simply must show you the text of this listing.
Do you have family gatherings but never enough seating? Are you also
drawn to bright dramatic colors? This is the table for you! It's your
statment piece. Get the family talking about something besides
themselves : ) The table top has a hand painted quote from English
novelist Dodie Smith. About the family- " That octopus from whose
tentacles we never quite escape, nor, in our inmost hearts ever quite
wish to."
The table has a formal feel but very casual at the same time. $150 or best offer
If you buy this table the family will definitely be talking about something other than themselves.
Me Tarzan, you Craig.
This is a listing for jungle decor with a plethora of pillows depicting animals, an oil lamp with no oil (above) and two coconut monkeys. The listing explains that one of the monkeys is missing an eye.
Now we all have to resume our search for a pair of coconut monkeys with intact eyes. Darn!
Last week's CL post poked fun at a less than appealing listing for a daybed and the accompanying yucky mattresses.
Oh Dear! Did they read my post?
Here is this week's tidy listing for what appears to be the same bed (in the same area too) minus the squalor and stains.
I'd love to clean up Craigslist, one snarky post at a time.
I think I will pick on a different city next week. I like it here and I don't want to get kicked out. But, seriously that octopus table!!!!!
