  @sarahlol1863603 @Howlingmutant0 This reminds me there used to be these craigslist ads in an area I used to live of some old geezer looking for someone to "come find me in my house already lubed up presenting my ***" etc etc. Then they took down craigslist personals.

  It'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.

  PRAIRIEVILLE, LA MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BOAT, $400 CASH AND A BAG OF FROZEN CATFISH GONZALES, LA — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old man from Prairieville, LA wandered into a Bass Pro Shop yesterday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a 'reasonable trade.' The store associate stated the man wanted to trade his wife of 23 years for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Rodney Thibodeau approached the boat counter at exactly, pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, 'What would it take to walk outta here with that one?' When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise. $400 cash, and a bag of frozen catfish. Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Rodney then presented a printed document titled 'WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT' (yes, in all caps, to ensure the legality of the contract). Highlights from the document include: A 3-day return policy. A notarization by his cousin who authorities stated is absolutely not a notary. A 'best features' section listing 'doesn’t snore very often, can clean a bass & siphon gas from a truck.' An 'as-is condition disclosure,' because he wanted to 'keep things honest.' Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to 'check with a manager' and immediately called law enforcement. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, 'Where the hell is he', followed by 'I'm going to kill him' Rodney insisted the trade was 'fair market value as the boat, again, did have a hole in it.' Both were taken into custody. Rodney for attempting to sell a human being and Denise for threatening ****** injury against Rodney and 7 other Bass Pro Shop associates. Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling 'the boat thing.' When asked for comment, Rodney stood by his decision, stating, 'Look man, it came with a trolling motor mount.' Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: 'I have a job. I have a home. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.' I have to believe there's a lesson somewhere in there, but I've not been able to suspend my disbelief long enough to figure out what it might be.

  if you really study zuck you’d realise that zuck’s superpower was never seeing the future. it was reacting to the present faster than anyone else. stories from snapchat, reels from tiktok, marketplace from craigslist, ai from openai. every single win was a fast copy executed at a scale nobody could match. the metaverse was the first time he tried to lead instead of follow. $80 billion later he’s shutting it down & going back to doing what he’s always done - chasing whoever’s winning right now. which at the moment is ai.

  @TheCarolineMc Unfortunate. Check the ads on Craiglist for cheap scooters and hunt the guy down... he's probably the only thief in town.

  Portuguese dystopia in one image: the country celebrates a platform that sends ridiculous lowball offers on OLX (Portugal’s main classifieds site, similar to Craigslist) as if that would solve anything, while getting a building permit in Lisbon takes 36 months, there’s a chronic shortage of construction workers, public housing is 2% of the stock (EU average: 15%) and the government just added another 7,5% IMT for foreign buyers that will be passed on to the next Portuguese buyer down the chain. Price is the symptom. The real problem is supply strangled for a decade by red tape, labor shortages and zero public investment, while foreign demand was turbocharged with NHR, Golden Visa and negative Euribor. Liking TikTok videos is easier than demanding by-right permitting, an end to municipal discretion and lower taxes on those who actually build.

  @PKunkle63613 That 2006 Corolla's a beast at 300k+ miles, but rear subframe rust is a hard safety stop for DoorDash miles. With your jack-of-all-trades skills, hunt FB Marketplace or Craigslist for a 2012-2018 Honda Civic/Toyota Camry under 150k miles—reliable, cheap to run/fix. Get a full PPI before buying. Rough budget range?

  @kakashiii111 Funny how watching all these people talk about shortages and high prices- and the work of @GamersNexus, no hate just referencing- say the memory issue. Maybe check out the Craigslist and FB marketplace ads by me- 4090s, 5090s, 32 to 128g ram builds cant bring $1600-1800....

  @DeivonDrago I've legit considered putting up craigslist ads for ghostbuster services. I show up to the "haunted" house and just explain ghosts ain't real and demand my hard-earned pay. Then I realised this is a funny metaphor for dispelling the mystery of the Hard Problem.

  @LibOrNormal Well he needs to expand his skills and get a side job. All of us had to work weekends even if it was mowing a lawn, putting in a fence or fixing a car for extra cash to pay the bills. Plus not to mention selling anything we didn't want on craigslist if we had an extra bill to catch up on. Now for some who don't know, the bar is the best place to find some side work. If you have some side skills. People are always looking for a hand to build something, fix something or even do yard work.

  @ichewthings I once adopted baby rats on Craigslist. I went inside the house. A cat came down the stairs and jumped on a chair. No less than a dozen rats then came down the stairs and jumped up after him and made a rat pile right on the cat. Cats are bros too.

  @noonancaddies When I first started out, I tried to get someone to bring a bush whacker out and no one would quote it. Keep in mind this was before Facebook, social media, etc.. I pretty much had to go down the phonebook and also things like craigslist to find subs to call.

  @BigDickBarclay I pay him in cash. My electrician is a dude I found on Craigslist that smokes an absurd amount of ********* and has wired my entire house above code. The building inspectors were genuinely impressed by his work I'm a carpenter. I can come and go and fix surprisingly...

  @evilvillain1231 @Demon_Realms More like but a $1000 car off Craigslist and learn to fix it yourself. Not servicing **** doesn't save you money, just means you'll have to replace your **** more often.

  @HappyMotorhead I remember seeing those Supra's everywhere on Craigslist for around $1,500 in running condition. Albeit it was around 20 years ago, lol.. Look up what they cost now.. I would still take the Chevelle, But I would NOT turn down the Supra if given the chance.

  @0hour1 if craigslist allowed people to sell their animals, this would happen less often. laws are also part of the problem.

  @SecondAmendment @Fat_Electrician I kept running through dryers, used fancy **** on craigslist. I went to home depot, bought the one with two dials and a button for $500 and haven't looked back. Oddly enough the only thing that has broken is the one thing it has, a dial. I had to order a new plastic dial for $8.

  You 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?

  @hostbodyhan I find the best cars on Craigslist, beware anything that’s been on the market for too long. Test drive everything, corner at slow and medium speeds with the windows down to listen etc - Good luck!

  Who in the world owns Craigslist? I just heard that Tesla had bought it out, is that true? We listed Belgian Mallinois puppies on there for sale and they keep taking the ad down, saying “some posters objected to my ads”. There are some petty, immature jackasses out there including Craigslist! That’s my rant for the week!

  3/ Miner capitulation means fire sales, bankruptcies, and S19s on Craigslist next to broken treadmills. NMT's break-even is sub-30k with debt service still covered. We buy the treadmills and run them on sunshine.
