Ran into this website a couple of weeks back: You Suck at Craigslist | Exactly what it says on the tin.

For those who don't know, CraigsList is an American online classifieds website. This website finds some of the sillier posts and publishes them, mocking them all the while. The most recent ones aren't that good, but just go back a couple of pages!

Here's a sample:

Mummified Lizard!!! Perfect Condish!!!
Perfect Lizard Mummy!!! Circa 1997ish
I did not starve or harm this reptile. I Found her in an old broken car!
Will not run away from you!!!

Toes = 10
Fingers = 10
Tail = one complete
Eye sockets = two GOOD?URNS
Numerous other detailed parts that you would find on any of today?s Lizards.
Beautiful Collector Item!!!
No cracks, scratches or broken parts. 100% Complete!!!

This one was sent by Blake who points out that it was listed in the barter section, without any particular indication of what the poster wanted in trade.

Frankly, I?m not sure I want to know. Perhaps they would like a nice raccoon?

For that matter, I want to know why the poster is referring to this lizard as ?her?? I suppose after conducting a detailed lizard inventory to produce the post (Toes? 10. Fingers? 10. Eye sockets? two GOOD?URNS!) he may have collected enough other data to infer a gender. Then again, I?m not sure how you?d figure that out for a LIVE lizard.

I?m glad it has all the parts one would expect on one of today?s lizards. I know some traditionalists scoff at all the newfangled gewgaws on modern lizards, but I for one support the march of progress as it applies to dessicated reptiles. (I am somewhat stunned, however, by the rare correct use of an apostrophe in ?today?s lizards.?)
 
Some really halarious stuff on there, man some people are stupid!
 
I am always vary of using CL. Afraid each time I meet up someone to buy/sell it will be the last time I am seen alive.

Phillip Markoff anyone?
