ooden


leg massa

I can’t help but feel I’m missing something here. Maybe this will help:

ion – $1


rab

Yup. Much better.

Thanks, Lisa!

    “leg massa”

        monkey – Mr. Sharpton on line 1 for you! He wants to know if you’re responsible for the ad or the enlightenment.

        If it’s the latter, he’s coming to get you.

        If it’s the former, he’s sending someone else to get you.

    Let’s try the anagram method.

    “ooden leg massa” = “Mega Ass Noodle”.

    “ion rab” = “Brain-O”, which I’m guessing is some dollar store brand of brain bleach, which I now need after imagining “Mega Ass Noodle”.

          As kids we used to pronounce “Merci beaucoup” as “murky buckets”. My dad taught French. Poor man, he must have despaired of us.

          My mum also told the tale of her father, who fought in France in WWI, and used to say “San Fairy Anne” if something didn’t bother him. Ca ne fait rien. Accents are wonderful things.

    I have a pilot by the name of Rab in an online game. He has an Ion cannon as well. He paid a whole lot more than $1 for it though. I wonder if there are any decent ships available on CL.

    My cheapie off-brand keyboard is horrible for not registering key strokes, bizarrely reading them in the wrong order, reading a neighboring key or refusing to shift to symbols at random, but I take the time to go back through even a quick chat message and proofread. It takes you three click-throughs to post on CL now, so how did Sparky not manage to notice half the words were missing? I think the first one he was trying for wooden leg massager, and the other is possibly iron bar, but then I’m used to trying to decipher what my keyboard was SUPPOSED to type. I wonder if Sparky has a Dynex keyboard?

      Would that be a massager for a wooden leg, or a leg massager made out of wood?

      Snerk. “Wood.”

      AFTERTHOUGHT: A massager for a wooden leg would be kind of silly, woodn’t it? Why would a wooden leg need massaging? Unless you just wanted to buff it to a healthy shine. Is that the equivalent of shaving a real leg? Or putting lotion on it? Am I thinking too hard on this? Did I just say “hard on”?

      Snerk. Yes, yes I did.

    Normally, Woden only gave leg massages on Wednesdays, but evidently craigslist has allowed him to expand his services. He lets Ion do the back rubs, however.

    Personally, I prefer Asdfgh; he’s more holistic.
