YSaC, Vol. 564: Asshat might be too nice of a word for these two.

2010 February 1

assorted female stuff


Ring for sale found on floor after drunken night. Need to teach this chick a lesson to stop leaving stuff at my place so my girlfriends dont get jealous finding flats, necklaces, etc that don’t belong to them.

Best offer.
564

Right … because the lesson that needs to be learned here is for “chicks” to stop leaving stuff at your place, not for you to stop cheating on your girlfriends (notice the plural there?). And of course the best way for you to teach that lesson is by stealing the ring and selling it on Craigslist.

The next one’s behind a cut, for potentially (and actually) objectionable language:

wanted: vid of me on your Harley – $20


this is not a joke. i just want a quick video with me in it sitting on your Harley while it is running. I’m lying to someone that I own a Harley because i think i will get some pussy from her. she likes bikers. i’ll give you a quick $20. I’m in [location] if you can come by or maybe i could come to you. LOUD bike ONLY!!!
delete it again faggots and i will send you a virus

I don’t know about you, but I am not inclined to help this gentleman with his request. I can, however, think of a million ways this can all go horribly wrong, and that pleases me greatly.

I’m also hoping that Sparky ends up on this site when he’s doing his Google search for “sending Craigslist flaggers a virus,” because — somewhat unsurprisingly — this post got flagged.

Thanks for the ads, Dani and John!

        I don’t know. Maybe I’m just a more hands-on kind of gal, but I tend to favor the idea of castrating them using just a carrot peeler and a fresh lemon or two. Sooner or later the parts’ll stop functioning, and surely by the time that castration is finished they’ll have fully understood the lesson (or died of shock. I’m willing to accept either).

    I think the odds of getting a virus from him are immensely more likely if you actually let him sit on your Harley. I’m pretty sure you can get Viral Hepatitis if you share the same Harley with an infected person.

      Obviously the once and future girlfriend was either not very bright or was very avaricious, as she either didn’t notice or care that the necklace didn’t come in a box. Any jewelry that I received that didn’t have its own box, no matter how inexpensive and generic, would just scream “purloined/found/bought off of the back of a truck/fell off of the back of a truck.” Doesn’t matter if the box says “Stan’s Jewelry Shack” instead of “Tiffany,” (well, actually it does, but for the sake of argument it doesn’t), at least it looks like it was legitimately acquired.

          As you say Patrick is also an amazing actor, he too came across really well. As for my man, not sure, although the one time I looked over at him he was doing something on his laptop, so perhaps that’s not the best sign.

        develish1 – I saw David Tennant’s Hamlet live at Stratford as well as catching up with the screen version. In the play they stopped for the interval at the point where Hamlet comes across Claudius praying and he holds a dagger up behind him. Gasps from audience – the Shakespeare afficionados because it’s not a scene end, the rest (Dr Who fans) because it’s a point of high tension.
        In the ice-cream queue the conversation behind me was “I wonder how it all works out, I hope its a happy ending”.
        I’m not sure the ice-cream salesperson welcomed me spluttering out my request for two ginger and honey and one strawberry ices with snot dripping out of my nose!
        I thought David did anguished and energetic very well; for pure sex appeal the Toby Stevens one was better. Also at least with the DT version Ophelia was believable – she often lets down the whole play – in the immortal words of Victoria Wood “Look at me, I’m a looney”

    Oh, take me now Jason F! Wait. Who is that naked woman?

    Oh, that’s Ashley. She’s putting herself through fake cosmetology school by being my naked housekeeper.

    Oh Jason F, we should all do it.

    Yeah!

    Yeah!

    I’m deeply confused over the first post for the same reasons others have said above. I don’t know of any man that would use the term flats instead of using shoes. And “girlfriends” is still used by women to describe their associated tribe. So this is my conclusion: this female is upset because some of her friends are sensitive. They hate seeing other woman’s accessories that are much better than their own.

    And excuse me I’m in College Essay Writing Mode (CEWM pronounced “swim”). *shuffles off back to writing about how environmental awareness is changing ethics in big business*

          Both, actually. He took pics of himself with my twin turbo Volvo at Pacific Raceways to show off to girls on myspace, after I drove his ass there and worked on my car alone. And the stories about suspicious items found in his house while he was living alone were soap-opera-worthy.

          There are many ways of being used. I dated a guy who, I began to discover, was dating me because he liked my roommate but she wasn’t interested. And then he also started dating his dealer, but would not admit that either.
          I was half the age I am now and deeply naive.

          Later edit: Wow, you totally had a separate exchange while I was posting this (the phone rang). 🙁

    I don’t know why it took me so long to think of posting this, since:
    1. I am a female
    2. I talk too much anyways
    3. being female, I know how devious we are.
    I have heard many women talk about ‘CU Insurance’. if they want to see you again, they will leave something inexpensive, yet important, at your house, so that they can either show up at any god-forsaken time with the excuse of wanting their ‘thing’ back, or you will be a ‘nice guy’ and call them and then return it. Also a good way to weed out jerks. I feel this is stupid, since you’ve already given him what he wants, and if he wants more, he’ll be damn sure to get a hold of you.
    Guys, if a female is at your home, seriously, make sure she takes everything with her. And don’t let her bring in a metric ass-ton of stuff to leave all over your house. If all else fails, destroy the item with napalm.
