<title>Sea Monkeys</title>
<link>http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/bou/1604286957.html</link>
<description>Please rescue my son&#x27;s Sea Monkeys. &#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
The Sea Monkeys were a well-intentioned gift from a relative, but my son has poor vision and can&#x27;t see them at all, so they&#x27;ve become Mommy&#x27;s problem. We are moving and I have no idea how to transport them across the state- plus, I don&#x27;t care. So, they would love a new owner. They come with their tank, food and food scooping spoon, and a little syringe and keychain thing in case someone wanted to suck Sea Monkeys out of the tank and carry them around for some reason. As shown except that our tank is red, not blue, and that the eggs have already been hatched.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
They would be a great dorm pet as they don&#x27;t take up any space and are quiet. Really, they would be a good pet for anyone. I&#x27;m not picky, I don&#x27;t think they are either.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
I realize that people feed Sea Monkeys to fish and such, and I have no problem with that, but I&#x27;m not interested in giving these creatures away for that purpose simply because it seems like a waste of all the plastic crap that comes with them. So please only take them if you actually want to keep them.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Thank you!&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
**Please do no flag and tell me this belongs in pets. Seriously- they&#x27;re Sea Monkeys. Come on.

<title>Orange Popsicles</title>
<link>http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/bou/1573701441.html</link>
<description>Okay, it&#x27;s Craigslist.  One day you can have free fill dirt (you haul), the next day it&#x27;s tons of moving boxes all in good shape.  &#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Well, today it&#x27;s orange popsicles (all in good shape, you haul).&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
A regular box of popsicles includes cherry (my favorite), grape (so-so) and orange.  I don&#x27;t like the orange ones.  I&#x27;m a grown-up and I don&#x27;t have to eat them if I don&#x27;t want to.  On the other hand I can&#x27;t bring myself to throw them away and I don&#x27;t have children or grandchildren living in the area to give them to (assuming they would like them).&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
I currently have a bunch of orange popsicles in my freezer.  If you want them,, let me know.  If you are paranoid about them, you probably shouldn&#x27;t be looking for free things on Craigslist in the first place.  However, keep in mind they are all &#x22;factory sealed&#x22; and whoever takes them probably isn&#x27;t going to end up on the 6:00 news because they were poisoned to death by orange popsicles.  &#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Someone is going to want these things, so you better hurry.  If things work out, maybe we could develop a &#x22;popsicles are ready for pickup&#x22; relationship whereby I send you an E-mail whenever the freezer overfloweth.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Keep in mind that a box of 24 popsicles costs about $4.50 and you are only getting 1/3 of a box...or in this case 1/3 of several boxes.  The point is I don&#x27;t think you should consider driving from Estes Park for the orange popsicles.  However, if you do and you are first, I will give them to you.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
FAQ: &#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Q:   Are the orange popsicles sugar free?&#x3C;br&#x3E;
A:   Do I SOUND like someone why buys sugar free popsicles?  No, they aren&#x27;t.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
Q.  How many orange popsicles are currently available?&#x3C;br&#x3E;
A.  As of 3:15 on 1/27 I have 17 of them.&#x3C;br&#x3E;
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
First person to respond gets all of them!

<title>We shared a cab, you hit me in the face. - m4w</title>
<link>http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/bou/1505676272.html</link>
<description>Hi! I am almost 100% positive you remember me. I was standing in the cab line for about 15 minutes in 1 degree weather, and then you and your girlfriend ran in front of me in the cab line right as my cab, that I had been waiting so long for out in the ball shivering cold, arrived. Now I admit, I am a nice guy, and women get to take advantage of me quite often, but that said I haven&#x27;t been laid in months, and when that happens, I somehow feel that the goddess of feminine nurture and chivalry can... how do I put this? Suck my six inch piano player. This is the point where I told the cabby what you girls did, and informed him that he was throwing away the very long cab ride to Erie as well as his moral saint 1-month chip. At this point he had the very bad... very bad idea to give me (a drunken narcissist, in the right) a ride with the girls who shunted me most literally to the curb. This is where the sh*t show began.                       Your friend and you are both very attractive, but nevertheless I have become accustomed to, when necessary, seeing only the ugly souls of the monsters who arrogantly think they can get whatever they want. The cussing, the womanizing, the abuse, the screaming, and everything that ensued for the next 15 minutes, is unlike me. However I was not alone in this endevor, in fact I would go as far as to say that it was YOU two who did most of the screaming, and abusing. Nevertheless I stood up to the both of you. I let you know exactly how sh*tty it was to leave a stranger to freeze for the sake of your own toes. And although I am a tired soul, tired of fighting petty battles with girls, there are times when the wild thing from my youth finds the perfect combination of irritation and gravel to carve a path to the surface and cuss you the f*ck out. So I did. Somewhere along the way you hit me, good and hard across the face for addressing you by your lady parts. I probably deserved it. But even so, when your friend got out of the car, the attitude from the back seat was cut in half. This reduction in calamity is what made me flip around, to see you face to face for the next 10 minute drive to your home, perched on my knees, and just listen. I watched as you blasted me with insults and be-ration, never admitting nor denying that you intended to leave me on the cold cabby curb.Your visage melted from rage into a pool of confusion as I just sat there and listened. By the end, you were reduced to a puddle of tears, and as gratifying as it was, it is these empty moments that remind me why I hush my inner child to sleep, and open the door for you, and hold your purse, and buy you presents, and walk your dog, and keep you warm, and give you kind smiles. When you exited the cab, my body took me over, I hopped out and gave a &#x22;Hey!&#x22;. You turned around, and I threw my arms out. &#x22;I&#x27;m Sorry!&#x22;. You sheepishly just looked to me, and through the tears came a genuine moment. A deep smile. Full of the confusion and joy that comes with being twenty-something. I just wanted to say I appreciated that smile. In it, you told me that you were okay, that we are only human, that you value people over right and wrong. Expect to have a beer on me if I ever see you again.....

<description>you were at that &#x22;retarded vegetables&#x22; themed party
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
your costume was centaur/bell pepper (red)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
unibrow, several hairy moles on exposed body parts
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
obvious Napoleon complex (turn on)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;

&#x3C;br&#x3E;
my costume was rotten pumpkins/seared grouper 
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
(i know that grouper isn&#x27;t technically a vegetable, but have you ever met one?)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
i had created the scent to match with my costume, remember?
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
and you were impressed because this, scent, is an element of costumery that is often overlooked
&#x3C;br&#x3E;

&#x3C;br&#x3E;
i am muscular, 5&#x27; 1&#x22; tall, 4&#x27; wide, sexy 8-pack abdominal muscles
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
very submissive in the bedroom, i like to go limp
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
financially independent (successful writer of advice for those who love a beast)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
cleft chin
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
veiny
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
shiny
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
colorful polka-dots tattooed from the torso downwards (festive)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
intense &#x26; painful aversion to hygiene, particularly of areas behind elbows/knees
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
people say that, when lost in reverie, i tend to open my lips very wide around tightly clenched teeth and that my eyes become large, with an intensity that some (often strangers) have described as &#x22;maniacal&#x22;.
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
i hunger
&#x3C;br&#x3E;

&#x3C;br&#x3E;
my hobby is I sit in a darkened room for many hours and study the television static for hidden messages/signals
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
you will be my stenographer as i lovingly dictate my findings (from the static) and you jot them down
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
and you will commend me for the brilliance of my findings
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
this will be our way of romance
&#x3C;br&#x3E;

&#x3C;br&#x3E;
please respond soon as i have not left the house or opened the curtains since we first met that fateful evening, and i am suffering from amnesia/many &#x22;bleeds&#x22; as a result of my Condition (a vast and reverberating Amorousness)
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
time is running out for the both of us
&#x3C;br&#x3E;

&#x3C;br&#x3E;
love &#x26; light,
&#x3C;br&#x3E;
S. Mitchell
