Kim Jones (@KimJone68361822) reportedPut an ad on Craigslist and Facebook Market place that is where I get my eggs from. And have a porch pick up. Can you hang a sign in a tree that says fresh eggs. Go around the rules instead. You cannot fight the ******** in our government. They are mindless clones with limited IQ

adam (@wightdeath) reported@bestinclassyt my friend was buying 3-4 a month off of craigslist to fix and resale for a profit

ludwig (@ludwigABAP) reportedwhatever specs that would sell for 400-500usd max, as this is to unfortunately torture it in incomprehensible ways so I dont wanna buy anything too specced out fb marketplace and craigslist are barren unless I wanna go back down to Palo Alto
-
Area503 (@RealArea503) reported@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.
-
Nobody (@Nobody2018) reported@0xSwampy Wait until you try to sell something on FB Marketplace or Craigslist. The most annoying buyers are Indians, hands down. You will be amazed by the pattern of experience.
-
Alicia (@BarracoAlicia) reported@1995_nightowl Damn, that’s next-level neighborhood apocalypse. Karen didn’t just fumble the bag—she burned the whole village down, collected blackmail checks, shopped the baby like it was Craigslist furniture, and then dropped the video as the grand finale.
-
FkCoolers (@FkCoolers) reported@wwornwwell Totally agree, even if much younger me may have spent my afternoons blowing off work to argue on the Craigslist forums about whether Spoon or Broken Social Scene was better haha
-
Jaxon (@jaxoncoder) reportedA brother living near my house bought a used iPhone on Craigslist for $300 cash. It looked brand new. It was completely factory reset. A week later, his camera flash turned on by itself in his dark bedroom. He thought it was just a software glitch. But it was so much worse.
-
John Mac (@JohnMcCart87216) reported@AllHailTzeentch @StefanMolyneux My car was broken into, my wallet and music gear was stolen, and listed on craigslist and the seller included his address (across the street from me), and I had two gas station videos of him using my credit card --- the cops said THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW UP.

Spaceballs The X Account (@Grunt2A) reported@shenan_igan Not yet. I'm going to research it more. It could be the motor drive bands. They apparently go bad and cause the drive to not know the laser's position which throws errors. The laser has an adjuster screw too as a last resort, because if you adjust it wrong it kills it in the unrecoverable way And then I'd check Craigslist. I've really like to fix it so I don't have to mess with transferring my saved game files and account info to a new system Keep in mind my son has an XBOX Series X that this game will play perfectly fine on. But that is besides the point! My Nintendo Entertainment System that I bought with my own money that I saved in coins in 1990 still works. My stupid XBOX needs to!

North Appalachian Supply🌲 (@NorAppSupply) reported@WretchedRambles Ah man, my dad went through a phase where he bought a couple old lathes from craigslist to fix up

Joseph Lee 🇰🇷🇨🇦 (@jhylee95) reported@danielcberk turning down $11B then splurging on $80 Skechers... craigslist beat capitalism
-
LEYTON EVANS (@Leytonio71) reported@adamcarolla Go on Seattle Craigslist right now. Rooms to rent all over the Seattle area for $500-1000 a month. Rents not the ******* problem!
-
Szustak Me 🇺🇸 (@SzustakMe) reportedThey need to shut down the source of gathering listing. Probably Snapchat, Instagram or Craigslist

❁Fat *** Kelly Price❁ (@LaFawndah) reported@iBOOMiSOON @King_Treesus @ctreid89 Craigslist for ***. I thought it was shut down in like the early 2010s.
-
PureProduct io (@PureProductIO) reportedMost brands burn cash on flashy ads while their product pages look like 2015 Craigslist posts. Your listing copy, photos, and UX do more heavy lifting than any paid campaign ever will. Fix the foundation before you light money on fire. #ecommerce

EyesWideOpen (@ClarityHurts) reported@Thedude69750960 @bradleyryder @Cryptoboyy_Aji I did NOT have a "chance." I clawed success out of the rocky ******* ground. People make their own "chance." My fiancé and I rented an in-law quarters for $500 a month. It was ONE ROOM! So we slept and crapped right next to the kitchen. We had my pickup and a banged up scooter we got off Craigslist. Most times we took the scooter. Fun times. My fiancé waited tables and I taught piano lessons afternoons and nights, which paid the bills but still didn't offer much to save. So I went to a hard money lender (which means an exhorbitant interest rate and one year to pay it back - or you get your shins broken. But no credit check.) and bought wrecked houses, fixed them up, and flipped them. It was grueling work which cost me blood, sleep, and in the end a f'd up back. But we saved enough to buy our OWN wrecked house and fixed it up. Again grueling. We had to use the gas station bathroom for a months while we rebuilt the plumbing in the "new" house. Eventually, we started a new business and phased out the piano lessons and waitressing. Now we have four kids, and life is golden. Opportunity doesn't just fall in your lap. You have to fight and claw and dig for it. But it hurts. It's much less painful to sit around making lousy excuses.

BoVodio Toad (@BovodioToad) reported@LuckyMcGee lol. I'm just thinking, if you plan to stick it down with silicone, you really need another set of hands. Look on FB marketplace or Craigslist for a handy man and hire them for an hour or two. Maybe reach out to thumbtack if you don't trust the locals.
-
Some Guy (@randy_marsh97) reported@KeysRetired @GlennPurcell2 Craigslist should get you way more. Just make sure you know how to filter out the future problem buyers who are so dumb they think you’re a dealer despite zero evidence supporting such a theory and they you are obligated to give them lemon law protections. Hence, we trade in solely to avoid the riffraff and ease the sales tax due on the new car.

icangetemail (@icangetemail) reported@abandoncomfortx If you personally renovate I hope you budgeted spending a chunk of that 2-3 year timeline for tracking down your stolen tools that the **** heads and junkies posted on craigslist, filing police reports, and purchasing replacement tools
-
King Neptune (@neptunemining) reported3/ 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.
-
ghost of governments past (@ghostofgovspast) reported@CarolinaLion2 but wait...10 minutes ago you said the average price of a house is $516k. You're starting to sound like a craiglist ad for a motorcycle. Wait long enough and the price will come down to reality.
-
jade (@jaddee_exe) reported@LunaInfernale something that my coworker thought about and told me was a Craigslist/ Facebook marketplace esc game. just buy **** boxes and stupid **** and fix it up
-
Celeztial_Menace (@Celeztial_Loon) reportedThe surveillance shii been a thing, the anti was upped around 2018 when Craigslist personals disappeared only for that to not fix shxt , like the dating apps now dont have murder history but clients i talk to say they feel pressured and exposed on the dating apps

Joseph (@SirSenolytic) reported@sciencegirl She gonna have the feds at her door with cuffs. ****** retard doesn’t understand the law that shut Craigslist down holds site owners responsible for tutes on their site…

Donald Wilhelm (@donwnyc1979) reported@Real_Ames @GigaBeers oh No... Shut it down. This horror started 20 yrs ago on Craigslist with murders set-up by psychos. It's starting up again, God please make it Stop.

🐝 Carol Walsh ^Monterey Bay^ (@CarolWalshReal1) reportedWe built a garden shed from scratch replacing an old falling down shack. No plans just husband and I building with materials we could get off of Craigslist. It was so nice with the cobblestone floor we were like I don't know should we make this a hangout room instead of just parking the riding mower?
-
Sir Duke the Realist (@Thedukeg1993) reported@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

denny (@dennyluan) reportedfunny story, bluebird SRs ran a distributor instead of a coil pack, and the one on my donor engine was dead. in 2005 i posted on craigslist, and tracked down a spare ECU in Everett, WA from a 70 year old man who collected 240sx's. he was a millionaire from selling old farmland he bought in the 1950s, and for fun he built a barn with two working lifts just to restore S13 240sx's to showroom condition with all OEM parts. he had probably 10+ in various states that once finished he'd just sell to random people. he had a separate barn with a hidden sliding door with a room full of spare parts he collected off ebay. i spent a day with him driving back and forth between his farms to try and find the part. ive always wondered what happened to him, and regretted not staying in touch. pic of the beat up dodge colt he drove.

𐡀 (@Xyleniqq) reportedThere's a deli two blocks from my office. I've been going there for 12 years. I order the same thing every time. Turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomato, mustard, on rye. Today, the guy behind the counter looked at me. Guy: Can I ask you something? Me: Sure. Guy: Why do you always order this sandwich? Me: Because I like it. Guy: You're the only person who's ever ordered it. Me: What? Guy: In 30 years. You're the only one. Me: How is that possible? Guy: I don't know. But we keep rye bread in stock just for you. Me: Just for me? Guy: Yeah. I didn't know what to say. Me: I can order something else. Guy: No. Don't. We like the consistency. Now I feel obligated to order it forever. --- ## 9. A guy on Craigslist paid me $40 to attend his improv show and heckle him. It went horribly wrong. I needed $40. I saw an ad on Craigslist. "Need someone to heckle me during my improv show. $40. Must be loud." I responded. The guy, Tyler, called me. Tyler: You comfortable yelling in public? Me: Sure. Tyler: Great. Just show up. Sit in the back. When I point at you, yell something mean. Me: Like what? Tyler: Doesn't matter. Just be loud. I showed up. Small theater. Maybe 30 people. Tyler's improv group performed. Fifteen minutes in, Tyler pointed at me. I yelled: You suck! The audience laughed. Tyler: Oh yeah? You think you can do better? Me: Yeah! Tyler: Come up here then! I didn't expect that. Tyler: Come on! Let's see what you got! The audience started chanting. I walked on stage. Tyler handed me a prop. Tyler: You're a detective. I'm a criminal. Go. I froze. I had no idea what to do. Tyler: Come on, detective. Interrogate me. Me: Uh. Where were you on the night of... the thing? The audience laughed. Tyler: What thing? Me: The... crime thing. I was bombing. But people were laughing. Tyler: You're terrible at this! Me: I know! I stayed on stage for ten minutes. At the end, Tyler handed me $60. Tyler: You were hilarious. Me: I thought I was supposed to heckle you. Tyler: You were better as a participant. He asked me to come back next week. I said no. But I'm thinking about it.
