  @redumbrellaclub Absolutely! Remember when craigslist and ******** got shut down, and people lost their income overnight? Well guess what that’s not happening on Facebook and Instagram they’re randomly shutting accounts down for no reason and people are losing their money.🫠

  @paulg There is definitely a space for rented private workshops. Even boomers who advertise their ****** overpriced garage on craigslist as a cool workshop at the end basically get creeped out if you actually tell them you intend to use it as a workshop. It's a NIMBY issue.

  @GOP_is_Gutless One, never buy anything off of Facebook marketplace or Craigslist. That's a lure into trouble. He could have bought it from a real dealer (not victim blaming, just a smarter, safer alternative). Two, usual suspects. Typical

  A young Swedish woman, who described herself as having extraordinary beauty and extremely seductive charms posted an anonymous ad on Craigslist stating that she was looking for a wealthy man to marry with an annual income of over $500,000, plus several conditions. She received a response from a commenter, as follows: - My dear beautiful lady... I read your post with interest, and I think many beautiful girls have questions similar to yours. Allow me to analyze your questions as a professional investor. My total annual income is over $500,000, which perfectly matches your requirements. From my perspective as a businessman, it would be a bad decision to marry you. Here's my short answer, and let me explain why: "Regardless of the details, what you're doing now is a pure transaction. An exchange of your "beauty" for "my money." Person A has the beauty, and Person B will pay money for that beauty. A perfectly fair and straightforward transaction. However, there's a fatal problem here: your beauty will inevitably diminish over the years, while my money isn't expected to diminish without a strong reason. The truth is, my income will likely increase from year to year, while you won't be any more beautiful in a few years. So, from an economic perspective, I represent an "asset" whose value increases over time, while you represent a "consumer" asset whose value decreases. If your beauty is all you own, things will get worse because you won't be a normal consumer product, but rather a product with a very high depreciation rate that will completely expire within 10 years.

  My ADU was broken into recently and several musical instruments were stolen. So I built Vigilanthony An agent who tracks stolen items. It has a list of all my stolen items, and every morning scans online marketplaces like Craigslist and Ebay along with several **** shop sites surrounding the Austin area. It then analyzes the results and looks for matches with my item list. No hits yet but we will stay vigilant. ✊

  @GravityDarkAge No one said they did. There is no indication where this file came from. I am guessing it was in the "UAP" folder on the JWICS server.. sort of like a secure version of craigslist for DOD/IC folks.

  Am I the Ahole for refusing to pay my parents rent, moving out, and going completely ghost on them? ​Used a different account to post because some of my extended family members follow my main, and frankly, I don’t need the extra drama right now. ​I 22 male recently graduated from college and managed to land a decent, entry-level job in my field. Because the housing market is an absolute nightmare, my parents offered to let me move back into my childhood bedroom "to help me save up for a down payment or a place of my own." I was incredibly grateful. I figured I'd be able to stack some serious cash, pay off some student loans, and be out of their hair in a year. ​Well, the "honeymoon phase" lasted exactly two weeks. ​On the third week, my dad sat me down at the kitchen table with a literal spreadsheet. He informed me that since I was now a working adult, I needed to "contribute to the household." He demanded $800 a month in rent, plus a 1/3 share of the utilities and groceries. ​To put this in perspective: $800 plus utilities is essentially what it costs to split a decent 2-bedroom apartment with a roommate in my city. When I pointed out that I was living in a tiny bedroom with a twin bed, sharing a bathroom with my teenage sibling, and living under their strict house rules (curfews, chores, asking permission to have friends over), my mom chimed in. She said if I lived anywhere else, I’d be paying market rate anyway, so I might as well "keep the money in the family." ​I tried to compromise. I offered $300 a month plus doing my own grocery shopping and taking over yard duty. They refused, claiming I was being entitled and disrespectful. My dad literally said, "Our roof, our rules, our rates." ​So, I played nice for a month while I secretly scoured Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. I found a great apartment with two roommates from college. The rent is actually less than what my parents were demanding, and I don't have a 11:00 PM curfew.

  @The8bitidiot The issue was so bad that Microsoft had to extend the warranty by like 3 years if I remember correctly. They couldn't figure it out...there were multiple mobo iterations. I used to pick them up with the RROD off ebay or craigslist for cheap. As long as the seal was still intact and would mail them to Microsoft, wait 4-6 weeks for the replacement, and then resell them for a decent profit. Probably did this 6 or 7 times. If memory serves correctly there was a "arcade" version you could get without a hdd that had HDMI and was the most reliable version. The cover on the disc drive was white instead of chrome.

  @Wolfskampf89 @buperac I had been watching Craigslist and Marketplace for months and I got up before work and sat down to have a coffee and it was the 2nd ad on lawn and garden and it was priced very low with very low hours. I called anyways honestly thinking it was a fraud and it was a doctor who was selling it and it had belonged to his father who had passed away. It had less than 700 hours on it in 2011 when I bought it. I could sell it today for thousands more than I paid for it 15 years ago.

  "I need a box truck to make real money." Nah. I started in a car after my 9-to-5. Saved $2,200 in courier work. Bought a cargo van off Craigslist. Then a box truck. Your vehicle is not the problem.

  Story time 😈 pt 1 When i was 16 i gave my *** up for the first time for the first time to some guy I met on Craigslist. I labeled my ad as 18yr virgin hole and I included pictures. After gettin what felt like a million hits I finally settle on one. We exchanged emails and eventually texts. I explained I was a virgin and looking to take **** for the first time. He had big **** and was obviously older (at the time mid 40s) He walked me through douching via text. I remember using my Gatorade bottle from my high-school gym bag lol to clean out. Which was easy cuz I had my own bathroom in the basement (perks of being the oldest lol). My bedroom was in the basement so I would sneak out of my house through the window, pushed the car out of the drive way so It didn't make noise when I started it lol. It was about 130 am when I finally got to his house. He lived about but about 30 minutes away. I remember being so scared as I got out of my car walking up to the door of his house cuz it was Hella dark. He opened it without coming outside and I walked in. He guided me through through the house, we eventually got to a door which lead to the basement. We go down the stairs and I remember seeing an entire set up, blue lights, music, giant *** bed and giant *** mirror in front. I remember sitting on the bed. He told me to get down and come over to him, as I walk over he drops his pants and told me to suck his ****. And which i did. I remember thinking his **** was much bigger and harder then my friends (we would sometimes jerk each other in the bathroom at school during lunch). About 10 minutes goes by and he tells me to get on the bed but get on all 4s. I started tk sweat slightly cuz i was getting nervous and I remember telling him again that I was brand new to all this. Telling me to just relax, he guided my body to an all 4 position with my *** literally hanging off the bed I was thinking i was gonna fall. He then gave me a bottle (poppers) and told me to sniff lightly. I remember getting the biggest headache and then just just laid my head and chest on the bed cuz **** was spinning. *** still up, he began to eat my hole. Never in my life feeling that sensation immediately tensed up. Things still spinning but slightly less, he tells me to lightly sniff again and then lay back down head and chest to the bed. So I did and he began to eat my hole. Now I'm feeling the euphoria of it all and he begins telling me to push out. I remember being confused and asking what do you mean, he stops and he said verbatim "push like your taking a ****" He hands me the bottle, I sniff and push. I remember literally feeling his tongue slide in and out of my hole. So for about 15 minutes so I'm *** up while he "prepped" me. Then he turned me on my back and dragged me to the edge of the bed. He put a pillow under my lower back and told me to sniff lightly like I've been doing. Now getting a good look at him, I realized this was definitely an older man, but we are so far in and hes clearly into what we are doing so I brushed the idea out of my head. Still slightly being out of it from the poppers, he tells to sniff and push out. I remember feeling the head of his **** on my hole and was hard and pulsating. I remember getting hard and he started to suck my ****. Only for a slight moment and quickly became brick. Once back to position, he then told me to sniff and push. Which I did. Once I felt the head of his **** penetrate me I immediately tensed up. Him talking me through it just said relax, sniff, and push. So I attempted to relax and did as I was told. Once the head was in, it was slight movement until I felt relaxed. He stroked my hole with the head slowly and repeatedly till I opened up which didnt take long after hitting those poppers. After a few minutes he told me I was ready and he went all the way in. I remember squirming in pain for about 1 minute till it just stopped. Then pure pleasure.

  @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.

  @Ridire_Creachta I promise you it is. Found a motorcycle on Craigslist and scheduled to go drive down that weekend to get it. Parents wouldn’t let me leave the house and said if I did “in their truck” then they would report it stolen and the only way I could leave was if I paid them what I “owed” them.

  Sell home goods, furniture, and electronics locally 2–4 weeks before listing by using platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, or Craigslist for quick, high-volume sales. For high-value, high-end items or extensive collections, hire an estate sale professional. Prioritize creating a neutral, decluttered, and bright home environment to appeal to buyers. [1, 2, 3, 4] Top Local Sales Strategies: Facebook Marketplace (Recommended): Best for furniture, electronics, and large household items. Good for rapid transactions. Craigslist: Efficient for furniture and tech, attracting local, direct-sale buyers. Nextdoor: Excellent for reaching neighbors who can easily pick up items. OfferUp: Another user-friendly app for local furniture and electronics, say. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Tips for Maximizing Value & Efficiency: Bundle Items: Group small kitchen tools, office supplies, or decorative items to sell them faster. Pricing: Check "completed listings" on sites like eBay to set realistic, competitive prices. Clearance: Consider hosting a garage sale for a one-day purge, suggests. Safety: Meet in public places if possible, or ensure someone is home during local pickups. Donate/Junk Removal: Use charities like Goodwill for donations, and hire services for junk removal to handle items not sold, says. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Preparing the Home for Sale: Depersonalize: Remove personal items, religious items, and specific, distracting decorations. Don't Fix Everything: Avoid massive renovations; focus on cleaning and minor repairs. Lighting: Ensure the home is bright and clean, which appeals to a broader audience
