  • Submission update:

    If folks have listings they’d like to submit to You Suck at Craigslist, please submit them to yousuckatcraigslist at gmail dot com — this is a change of email address from before.

    Please send submissions! There’s lots of sucking out there on Craigslist, and I don’t have the time to find it all by myself.

    Thanks!

    Box of soy nuts


    There is a giant box of soy nuts at the corner of Rose and E. Park. Please take it and eat it!

    Is it really a good idea to pick up food that’s been left on a street corner? That aside, am I supposed to eat the soy nuts themselves, or the box? I can’t tell.

    Free Rent for the Right Female


    I need you to take care of the house with occasional bedroom romps (about three a week)

    You get your own room and bath.

    I have two small outdoor/indoor young dogs.

    Alcohol and 420 are OK. No other drugs.

    Ew. This can’t be a good idea.

    Also, the math just doesn’t add up. Let’s say the going rate is $100/hr for, um, services. (I have no idea what the going rate is, by the way.) That would be about $300 per week, or $1200 per month, that he’s not paying for those particular services … not to mention the “take care of the house” bit. That’s really a lot to, um, put out in exchange for rent.

    And you know that it’s going to be more than three times a week.

    Ew.

    Edited to add: In the larger version of the house pic, there’s a kidnapper van sitting in the driveway. Yet another bad sign (as if you needed another one!).

    one dozen new toilet brushes – $7


    Yup… a dozen new toilet brushes! Seven dollars cash takes all.

    Hi, have you met this person? I think he could really use those toilet brushes.

    used toilet – $15


    Used toilet

    It certainly is.

    Seriously, would it have killed you to take a hose to it before taking a picture of the years and years of … dirt — I’m going to go with dirt here, because the alternative is unthinkable — that have built up on it?

    Framed Shrek print – $60


    I had this print framed at Michaels (I don’t know why I needed a Shrek picture) and it’s been sitting in its wrapping ever since. Never been hung up.

    Green metal frame with non-glare glass. Certificate of Authenticity on back.

    Photos taken with webcam in bright sunlight, so colors appear dull, but print is very colorful and sharp in person.

    So let me make sure I’ve got this right: you don’t know why you needed a Shrek picture, so you’re trying to sell it to someone else for $60?
