  • YSaC, Vol. 329: It’s the rare dolphin swan.

    Swan fountain – $75


    the picture describes this delicate water fountain better than I can… call Donna at xxx xxx-xxxx

    Donna is right about one thing — the picture definitely describes the delicate swan water fountain better than she can, given that IT’S A LAMP WITH DOLPHINS ON IT.

    Seriously? Not. A. Swan.

    Thanks to Meg for the submission!

  • YSaC, Vol. 320: Ice cream does fix everything.

    Elle, who was also responsible for the “Free blowdry and style” submission, sent this one in. It got flagged almost immediately, but luckily she’d taken a screenshot:

    Click here for a larger version, and be confused for a while. The two pictures themselves are like those puzzles in Highlights magazines where you were supposed to spot the differences between the two pictures: The hair comb! The green thing! The white/grey square blob to the right of the pink thing just above his head! Find and collect them all!

    Elle says, “I have so many questions. What/where is GUATSUSNAKE? Who is “HE”? Are they offering up an unemployed/retired person? A snake? Why did they include two almost-identical Photoshopped photos? Is that a mannequin? A dead body? Is there anything that ice cream doesn’t fix?

    This may have put me off Craigslist forever.”

    Here, I’ll save you the trouble — here’s a link to a Google search for “guatsusnake“. You’ll notice that nothing comes up. (I’m hoping the search engines will catch the word quickly enough that it will link back here by the time this post goes up!)

    In other words: Nope, I’ve got nothing.

  • YSaC, Vol. 316: If she WAS an alien, I’d adopt her, but …

    Rare long haired black chiwawa


    Jackie-o is her name she is going on 6 months old. she is very friendly loving and potty trained. Also knows how it sit. i have been working with her to fetch which she will when not distracted and also been teaching her cry when somthing is wrong. she is not spayed for i did not know if i wanted to do that to her. i was figureing i would give her the choice after her first period.

    (which she has not had yet)

    I am looking for a family home for her. she loves kids and is even great with babies. for she has been around my god daughter who was born three days after jackie. i am asking a rehoming fee for her to know that she will be loved for ever. I wish i could take her with me but i am moving almost three thousand miles away and my house is unfortanly not pet friendly. 🙁 if you have any questions feel free to email me. a recent photo is below how ever i took it with my cell so her eyes look bright,(she is not alien) And like i said before jackie-0 is a rare long haired loving black chi-wa-wa.

    LeAna sends this one in, saying, “First of all, black longhaired chihuahuas are not rare. Second — she was going to let the dog decide whether to be spayed? Oh, and don’t you worry, she’s not an alien, it’s just my crappy cell camera …”
    And … really? Chiwawa? I mean, I realize that chihuahua is sort of difficult to spell, but I think I’m going to have to invoke my “if you can’t spell it, you don’t deserve to own the breed” rule.
  • YSaC, Vol. 309: Mirror, mirror …

    vanity mirror with designs – $20


    xxxxxxxxx@bellsouth.net or cfmurphyxx@yahoo.com if interested

    this is a very nice vanity mirror with no imperfections

    309

    Sadly, the lack of imperfections in the vanity mirror itself does not mean that the reflected image also contains no imperfections. I mean, if that’s not a warp in the mirror, then that’s a really odd six-pack he’s got there.

  • YSaC, Vol. 307: They have their own Society, you know.

    Comfortable overstuffed chair w/audubon – $30


    We’ve had this in our enclosed deck and it’s in good shape with no tears, no odors, smokers or cats around. It has a drip stain from a storm that some water got in from but will clean up very nice for any room. xxxxxxxxx@hotmail.com

    This endangered species of audubon was preserved thanks to the efforts of the National Audubon Society. Please remember them with your philathropic donations, because if audubons go extinct, where will we put our feet? WON’T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE FEET??

    Sorry, but this is a cause I believe in very strongly, as you can tell. I’ve seen firsthand the devastation that losing a species of audubon can create, and I don’t want this to happen to the rest of the civilized world. SAVE THE AUDUBONS!

    And if you’re not interested in saving the audubons (because you’re a TERRIBLE person), perhaps you’d be interested in this?

    Maybe free automans will tug at your heartstrings enough. No? My god, people, what do I have to do to get through to you?

    [Thanks to Roz and Amanda for submitting these listings!]

  • YSaC, Vol. 299: Absorbent and yellow and porous is he!

    Beef Jerky that looks like USA map – $50


    It is a vacuum sealed package of beef jerky that resembles a map of the USA, without Florida. See picture. 296

    Oh, goody! I’ll put it right next to my Sistine Chapel ceiling tile.

    If you turn it on its side, it sort of looks like an obscene SpongeBob Squarepants, too.

    Sent in by Becci — thanks!
