-
george (@idobadtakes) reported@cSchaez I think the issue is that my car genuinely does run fine, but if you look at all the listings around it on autotrader / craigslist a lot of them are actual scams or don't work. So people just understandably avoid the whole category
-
joey baum (@joeybaum13) reportedIn San Francisco, a city on the cusp of every new technology, has a rather antiquated system for finding rental apartments. it's mostly craigslist and calling the phone number that hangs on a sign in front the building.
-
Lisa Ann Jones (@LisaAnnJones61) reported@the_dadchef When my '77 wall oven started acting up: "Ma'am, for the cost to fix this you may as well buy a new one!" After TWO new garbage wall ovens later, I'm scouring Craigslist & Marketplace for a circa 70s-80s oven in decent shape (avocado or gold now acceptable). Ridiculous.

Rich 🇵🇸🇵🇰🇹🇷🇺🇸 (@aliensuns) reportedBy the way, the only activity on this email account today was me responding to a craigslist ad which goes through some kind of relay to protect the privacy of email addresses. I don’t know if this is what caused your concern. You might want to fix it. It’s alarming.
-
KB 3.0 (@SDdude420) reported@CardPurchaser Not yet but I did find someone trying to sell hundreds of cards on Craigslist last night. Only problem is that they’re 5 hours away from me. I really want to buy their collection but there’s no way I’m driving for 10 hours to go get them.

TheEndOfDays (@TheEndOfDays13) reported@GeorgeDienhart @aleksbrz11 @ritapac2 USA has a 100 million people age 18-65 that are not working and not looking for work...except when needed for paid protesting on your local craigslist under "gigs"

Thomas Meijer (@ijsthee) reportedYou don't need a designer. You need a decision filter for 'what belongs here.' 3 Proofs: 1. User Onboarding study: 86% of churn due to unclear flows, not ugly UI 2. Craigslist looks terrible. Still dominates because IA is perfect for its job. 3. Most redesigns fail because they change visuals without fixing structure Question: If users can't find features, will prettier buttons help?

EVILiNNside (@EVILiNNx) reportedYears ago, I Interviewed for a really good job around the same time my phone # was being used for some craigslist scam & after multiple calls I finally lost it on a # I didn't know and of course it was the company calling. That feeling was so terrible, still went and interviewed.

Greg Betz (@gregbetz55) reportedIt's not a coincidence that God killed the founder of the prostitution website OnlyFans with cancer. The government needs to shut that website down like they did with ******** and Craigslist.
-
Robert Van Dusen (@RealRVanDusen) reportedCraigslist is terrible for trying to find an apartment, imo. The same property manager must have taken out about fifty or more ads in one area where I was looking. Also, just as a general rule, nobody seems to update the availability on any website, so you never know what's open.
-
InsidiousWeenie (@InsidiousWeenie) reported@Oceanbreeze473 Cheapest way to solve the problem; $500 Craigslist car Turn on "back dat *** up" Floor it
-
Burner Jay (@BurnerJayHarris) reported@BeardoTrader No problem that’ll just be $20k on craigslist

priscilla (alt) (@seashell_luvr) reportedMy mom once saw searches on my phone for a used car on Craigslist, and she screamed at me until my ears rang, telling me that I could never dream of affording it, how I don’t know about insurance (I did), and how I was childish for wanting to “just buy a car” (I was only curious and doing research, I didn’t even want one yet). Yet will also put me down for lack of social life, for my age and lack of independence? But will also make negative comments about making friends in unconventional ways (like through Twitter)? And disparage any attempt at independence? My parents have supported me in so many ways. I was unstable and unable to work at one point, and I would have been homeless without them. Yet I also feel incredibly trapped and claustrophobic. A part of me dreams of living far away. I just want to be left alone and not have to talk to anyone for a really long time.

Tina Ryerson (@Ryerso53654Tina) reported@TodayUpdates0 THE HEADS OF ALL THESE DEPARTMENTS SHOULD BE FIRED AND WE SHOULD THROW THEM IN PRISON FOR LIFE AND THEN WE SHOULD SALE THEIR ASSETS ON FACEBOOK OR CRAIGSLIST AND PAY THE DEBT THAT THEY ENABLED TO RISE WITH THIER MONEY ! THE HEADS ARE THE PROBLEM ! THEY ALL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF US!

Rest in Peace Banewreaker 又 (@SkinSinge) reportedI learned how to fix these with 8 pennies and a bit of electrical tape and I would buy them on Craigslist and re-sell them fixed. About 12 cents in "parts" and 10-15 mins of labor.
-
MrGamis (@GamisMr) reported@combatbaIIerina @MattieMatt1q88 @TheLizVariant Craigslist, tho not perfectly, disallows the selling of companion animals. If you see someone attempting to sell an animal on the official Craigslist you should be able to report them and have their post taken down. Believe this is every online marketplace policy.
-
Quillionis (@Quillionis) reported@PS0302 @lyndseyfifield @SammyBarrow32 Can definitely fix appliances yourself but it almost always means getting new parts. Meanwhile the frozen food is going to waste and probably has to be emptied anyways to make repairs. Best solution is cheapest freezer you can find on craigslist to tide you over. Maybe even rent
-
CosmicVoyager (@School4Clowns) reported@jimmykimmel On second thought, you should put out a Craigslist ad for local dancers, and give Don Lemon a grind down down on National TV!
-
🥤🦆 (@MilkshakeDuck3) reported@RedPillMediaX @ScottPresler already has his skinny jeans down around his cowboy boots. I wonder if he'll sell the videos on Craigslist again?
-
@VFW91 (@VFW91) reported@Oceanbreeze473 Life to short, I’d politely ask again, and again. Then I’d buy a $200 car off CraigsList and park it there permanently. Problem solved for $200.

Rogelio Rodriguez 🇵🇷🏳️🌈🇵🇸🇮🇷🇨🇺 🖖⚾️ (@rorodriguez73) reportedLast time a newspaper classified ad was of use to me was in 2007, when an ad in a physical copy of the Tacoma Tribune got me a new apartment. After that, Craigslist online was the go to, especially in emergency situations. Too bad they had to shut down the horny part of the site.
-
Hurricane Ben (@lukane89) reported@swanlake322562 @DAKKADAKKA1 bought cars consoles furniture and tvs on craigslist no problem, just gotta use common sense if a price is too good to be true there's a reason..Also the structure of the ad is very telling. If the person can barely put together a proper sentence stay away
-
Area Eightythree (@AreaEighty4366) reported@LibOrNormal I recommend this old woman go down to Houston, rent a room, and put an ad on craigslist saying, all u can handle, fee kitty. She can go home with souvenirs. In any case, don't take revenge advice from another woman, girls. Especially an old one
-
EdwardMaga (@edwardmaga01) reported@IRanMediaco “I found a guy on Craigslist who built my deck for a fraction of those other guys!” “But they didn’t get permits and the job has to be torn down and completely redone and you’re getting fined” “Damn…what a hormuz chalupa!”
-
Kain Yusanagi (@KainYusanagi) reported@solitaryasmr You could always set up your own personal server for cheap; it'd be much less to run than paying for Dropbox. You don't even need any special hardware; just use an old tower or laptop. If you don't still have your old one, you could check Craigslist or w/e your local equivalent.

Quietinthechaos (@Quietnthechaos) reported@J3ssicaStarling People pushed for COMPANIES to have to be responsible for the content they HOST. Since UNDERAGE girls, Trafficking victims, and REVENGE porn victims couldn’t get photos of themselves taken down. ******** and Craigslist CHOSE to remove the ability to post yourself safely to save $
-
Angela Baird (@AngelaB89611706) reportedI was thinking. Bad bunny lyrics were really that explicit. He needs shut down for putting our Spanish speaking kids in jeopardy. But I think Austin's Google account being shut down because he tried to get a bunny from craigslist is either his sickness I don't know or a problem
-
𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗨𝗥𝗥 😵 (@thedurrr) reported@StealthQE4 There’s literally an option on Craigslist and tons of other sites to buy with crypto what’s this dude on. He also doesn’t understand the use cases of these blockchains they are solving real world issues. There is a lot of vaporware in the space but also a lot of good.

turtlewithdastrawberry (@tinkayoonocapoo) reported@Bitcoin_Teddy There's a lot of broken monitors being offered in Craigslist where I live. No way they're sweaty gamers in this economy lol
