This man is my new hero. “You want proof that this lawnmower works? Here, mow my lawn for me. See? It works.”<\/p>\n

Or then there’s this type of optimism:<\/p>\n

Aerial Antenna<\/h2>\n
\n

Hello,<\/p>\n

I have an old-school antenna attached to the roof of my house that I do not need. I don’t know anything about antennas but it looks like a nice one to me. It’s free for the taking provided you bring your own step ladder (at least 10ft tall I’m thinking) and you promise not to fall off my roof. It’s tricky getting on the roof because you can’t lean a ladder on the gutters as they’ll collapse. Anyhow, if interested, please email me to set up a date and time.<\/p>\n

Sara sends this in, with her translation: “I don’t want to pay someone to remove this antenna, which may or may not work.\u00a0 So, if you have a 10 foot ladder that can magically levitate so that it doesn’t lean against my crappy gutters, and if you promise to not sue me if you fall and break your neck, you can own this fabulous, possibly functional, ‘old school’ antenna.”<\/p>\n

And, of course, there’s this:<\/p>\n

BROKEN BRICKS<\/h2>\n
\n

Have a pile of broken bricks from removing a walkway, need gone ASAP bring a truck you haul away………<\/p>\n

Matt says, “Here, let me clean up your mess for you.”<\/p>\n

I don’t know what the supply-and-demand chain is like for broken bricks these days, but this was<\/em> posted in Detroit — it’s possible that someone could take these bricks and build a house that would be worth $6.50. Then again, just about every house in Detroit is worth $6.50.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
