  • YSaC, Vol. 1779: Fishin’ in the Dark

    Free light bulbs

    condition: good
    Check your Spam folder for reply. About 6 or 8 regular light bulbs free, all work but are not the new energy-efficient kind

    Light bulbs? Light bulbs, you say?

    *squints*

    *rubs eyes*

    *looks again*

    Nope, still not light bulbs.

    Still, maybe I’ll finally have a use for this:

    Free Fishwasher

    Thanks, Ralph and Mackenzie!

  • YSaC, Vol. 1778: For sooth

    let an angel sing to you

    let me express my dedication to my two home countries.
    call me and i will sing either the American national anthem or Canadian national anthem to you.
    i love my countries and would like to let you hear the voice of an angel sooth you on this beautiful labor day.

    Oh hey – a national anthem post. I should totally use this for volume 1776.

    Oh crap.

    True fact – drmk and I go to a lot of amateur sporting events. At these events, amateur persons often sing the American and/or Canadian national anthems. 99 times out of 100 they are not even a LITTLE bit soothing. In fact, our friends have determined that far more entertaining than the actual performer is watching us twitch at each random modulation and botched intonation.

    So I think, Sparky, you will NOT be hearing from us on the dial-an-anthem line any time soon. Unless you want to perform the honors for Johncageistan.

    Thanks for the post, Greg!

    Large Dog Crate




    Large doge crate, as new. $100.00 or best offer

    Bought this a few months ago and it has never been used.

    Fits a fully grown husky

    So… this is a dog crate, right? And to use it, you put a dog into it, right? That’s how you use a dog crate, last time I checked. And this one has never been used – as in, no one has ever put a dog into it. Like that dog there. In the crate. Using the crate, as it were.

    Sigh. So Craiglist. Much suck. Wow.

    Thanks for the post, Michael!

    One question. What “Facture”?

    Thanks for post, sd!

  • YSaC, Vol. 1773: Technical Foul

    We’ve had plenty of posts from people looking to get something for nothing. It’s sort of a cliche that musicians get asked to play “for the exposure,” which as far as I can tell means that since they’re not getting paid, they’re likely to die of exposure.

    Here’s someone looking for a free photographer, although what they really seem to need is someone with a few extra periods and commas:

    Let’s create some art

    Hey everyone I’m Jimmy 21 year old male model for the past year I’ve been lucky enough to work with some amazing photographers allot of which I’ve met on CL so recently I’ve been slacking and I have not been producing new work so let’s fix that I have a few girl friends who have been asking me to shoot with them I’m looking for photographers who willing to shoot edgy provocative semi-nude work I’ve done full nude but I’m not too sure if the girls are willing to do nudes I’m sure some of them are all of these shoot would be individual maybe a group I have a few idea and we are also ready to help you execute any of your ideas this is a TF so no money would be made from these pictures let me know if you’re interested and I’ll send you pics of myself and of some of the girls thanks

    This is a TF. What is a TF, you ask? I have no idea. I tried looking it up, and here’s the first two dozen or so matches:

    • Transformers (toy)
    • Transformation
    • Track & Field
    • Transferrin
    • Transmission Fluid (automotive)
    • Transflash Memory Card (mobile device)
    • Tooth Fairy
    • Turbofan
    • Trotteur Francais (France)
    • True Friends
    • Trap Flag
    • Too Funny
    • Trigger Finger (stenosing tendovaginitis)
    • Tuition Fee
    • Two Fluid
    • Testicular Feminization (reproductive pathology)
    • Trace Flag
    • Transmission Factor (radiation exposure)
    • Transit Facility
    • Tranche Ferme (Marchés Publics)
    • Terminal File
    • Transient Fault
    • Terminal Forecast
    • Type of Funds (USACE)
    • Thomas-Fermi Approximation

    None of these make any sense, of course, but I really hope it’s not the Tooth Fairy. Thanks for the post, Mike!
