Praise the Lord and Pass the Weed

Actual quote from a Craigslist singles' ad: "I am looking for a strong christian man who... has a strong bong with the LORD."

Now, that's a religion I can get behind! Hallelujah!

Lately, I've been living on Craigslist even more than Blogger.com on account of my feverish activity in trying to secure housing. However, now that that crisis has apparently passed, I can peruse the other classifieds to look for stuff that I can get for cheap and to laugh at the pathetic singles' ads these people place.

Some of the sleaziest psychopaths on earth post singles' ads on CL. Guys pretending to be women, women who insist on hearing only from guys within nine months of their age group, asking for "discretion", insisting on there being no sex... and those are the saner ones who post for longterm relationships. You should see the "Casual Encounters" and "Miscellaneous Romance" ads. The "Missed Opportunities" ones are positively pathetic.

And, from what I'm hearing from the people who post replies, all Craigslist is these days is just a magnet for spambots who generate these emails designed to do nothing more than to get people to register at the same dating site (They all tend to end with the phrase, "GO STEELERS!!!" So I'm assuming they're all from Pittsburgh.).

Seriously, I could make a weekly series out of just the more insane singles' ads that I see on Craigslist. Who'd be up for that?
