Craig and his wonderful list

craigslist alpacaThe good thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations. The bad thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations.

Good or bad, we'll let you decide...

Not a good public transit experience.

"LOOKING FOR BRAHS TO COME FIGHT CRIME WITH US."

With his scruffy beard and wool hat at the Biergarten, he was the best looking person she'd ever seen.

How would we resolve the status of hot city workers without Craigslist.

He helped his grandmother, and he was beautiful.

She was applauded for being pleasant.

Well, you could fire her. That would help with the boss part -- maybe not the other part.

People wear pearls to Walmart? We're guessing that would automatically exclude one from People of Walmart.

She doesn't go to Starbucks for the coffee.

Her bumper sticker was apparently truth in advertising.

Are you sure she bumped your chair? Or did she move it with her mind?

Sounds like it could have been a good bachelor party.

What's more embarrassing than seeing a Twilight movie? Seeing it... alone.

There are hipster empty nesters now? They grow up so fast.

A lesson that would seem to be obvious, but alas, no.

See, even trolls have feelings.

That's terrible about the girl who was robbed at the bus station. In the middle of the afternoon no less! I never stop being amazed by the fact that people can get away with things like that in broad daylight-- not to mention the fact that they had the audacity to do it in the first place. It's deeply disturbing to me to see such violence in people so young.
