here's to feelin' good all the time
Crossposting from the Boston LAN thread

holy poo poo. My friend posted this on Facebook; it's an exchange he had with a guy from Craigslist. My friend is looking for an apartment, and I guess posted a "room wanted" ad, and the following exchange happens

some rear end in a top hat posted:

I might have a room available.When do you arrive in Boston?The later you arrive the less selection.

Quick breakdown of the place:

ROOM:The furnished bedroom comes complete with full bed, desk & chair, dresser and a closet.

{Description of the location and house, sounded nice, but a bit out of my price range}

my friend posted:

Thanks, but I have room furnishings, I doubt I could store my things in a furnished room.

some rear end in a top hat posted:

WOW, for someone who needs housing you have a lot of baggage.Its late in the game to be looking and Im less than 5 blocks from the campus.

Boat has left the dock and you dont even have ticket yet.

my friend posted:

A lot of baggage? I wasn't trying to be rude, just realistic and respond quickly so as to not waste your time. I have a lot of stuff and it would cost me a fortune to put in storage. I do have a couple of options, so don't worry about me having a 'ticket', but thanks for your input.

some rear end in a top hat posted:

You negated it because of storage poo poo?You're a dumb sob.You'd option it out then if you liked it, sell your poo poo and avoid the storage costs.

But if you're not that bright or quick witted, you're school is robbing you because you've learned nothing.

You seem high maintenance already.

Dodged a bullet there

my friend posted:

Please tell me this is a joke... you offered a room, I responded quickly and told you it did not appear to be a viable option given my circumstances (Would you have preferred I simply didn't respond?) and you launch into a personal attack on me.

some rear end in a top hat posted:

STORAGE is your deal breaker?Really?It's AUGUST and you're homeless and you're nit picking STORAGE?Shows that you're not too bright and that your expectations are higher than reality.

Unless you're storing priceless works of art, you could sell what you dont need, save the cost of storage and be able to BUY what you do NEED later when you NEED it.

You owe me a salary. I just became your professor.

We're done here.If I want an rear end in a top hat for a roommate, I'll call Snooky

my friend posted:

I just don't understand your interest in even speaking to me past my first email... what is your interest in the situation beyond that point? You can't gain anything at this point it's not as if your aggressive and offensive emailing is going to suddenly convince me I should rent your room and clearly neither of us would want that anyway. You're just wasting your time and providing me a hilarious email chain to share with friends.

some rear end in a top hat posted:

We were done 3 emails ago.Go bother someone else.

my friend posted:

Still hoping this was a joke. Good luck finding a housemate.

some rear end in a top hat posted:

THIS IS NOW CONSIDERED HARASSMENT.REPLY ONCE MORE AND I WILL FORWARD YOUR EMAIL TO GMAIL.

I actually got my current summer job through Craigslist and it's complete legitimate, taxes and NI and everything paid. I thought it might be a scam at first because the woman responded that she would send more details closer to the time (and took a loooong time to respond), but this has been the best summer job I've ever had. The hours are great, the pay is above minimum, the people are really friendly, it's an established company, and I managed to get a friend a job temping in a different department.

Another job I do for beer money I got through Gumtree (another classified site). I assemble cards for a graduate who set up her own greetings card company. The pay is crap, but it's completely brainless and I work from home watching stuff on my laptop while I do it. My boss is super nice too.

But on the other hand, I have had some crap experiences through the site. The worst is flakey people. A woman put up an ad saying she wanted work from home seamstresses to assemble dresses for her, and I responded because I'm a pretty good sewer. She said great, and said she'd be round on Friday to give me a few samples to run up. I gave her my phone number, Friday comes, she doesn't appear. I sent her emails, but she never responded again so I don't know wtf there.

oh, have I got some GREAT news for you!

:stare: I was just browsing Craigslist seeing what kind of crazy poo poo I might encounter when I found this in Casual Encounters:

Avoidant personality disorder (updated with all my CL fails and pics) - m4w - 666 (Hell)

quote:

So ya it is one thing to think you got issues but when you are diagnosed with something like Avoidant personality disorder and to KNOW you are hosed up in the head....
If I don't do something I'm going to end up a hermit and I really do not want that. Who the gently caress wants to be old and alone...

So it is really hard for me to meet new people and even if by some miracle I do they never stick around long enough to even get to really know me....I suck

SO HERE I AM ON loving CRAIGSLIST TRYING TO CHANGE. I'm a prolly need some help though I have tried and tried and tried to do it all on my own but it's just getting worse not better!

So below the line is what I'm dealing with and pretty much describes me to the letter!

You know I really really really think none of you really understand wtf APD, telling me to hit you up or expect me to blow up your cell phone or some poo poo....no just no it does not work that way I'm an avoider I will avoid doing that poo poo because 99% of the time no matter how bad I want to do something when it comes time to.....I just can't....like my brain will not let me and if I try to force the issue....panic attacks....not fun dude! So the only promise I make to you is if you hit me up I will always reply the first chance I get!

It's really hard for me to explain how it works, it's like I'm a prisoner of my own mind no bars no locks just my own head working against me!

Edit- So this craigslist thing has been a total failure and has only shown me that all I am a joke to people I'm not even a person any more just a joke and a bad one at that!

I just had a chance at a pity gently caress from a newly single friend but hosed it up because I'm a big loving joke! I'm no man whore I have not gotten any since my ex, but my friends a really really pretty milf and we get along it was really only half my fault!

Even so was talking to another pretty girl from Holyoke getting along fine txtign and what not, so we hang out she is spending my money pretty freely cigs food and such I light some blunts and what not but every time I tried to go in for a hug maybe some cuddling she would get all mean and start talking about other dudes.

So yet another chick I'm txting in Westfield never hung out just exchanged pics and txting for hours at a time and then BAM one day never got any txts back, much have found someone better, not to hard to do being I'm just a joke not even a real person and all.

So cheated on after six years took a year off cuz that poo poo hurt like a motherfucker and then 3 rejections in a row! Plus let's not even count all the times I thought there was a connection and after the first time you swap pics BAM never hear from them again

My worst nightmare is to grow old alone and every day I'm living it! It's tearing me apart so bad been thinking about just calling it game over, I just do not want to be alone any more and it seems that is all I have to look forward to. . ...old and alone. . ...I mean I already sleep 18 hours a day because my reality sucks it would just be like going to sleep but never having to get back up. . ..

I'm add my pic so if you ever see me in public it is perfectly fine to point and snicker!


*snip*

This actually continues, you can read it in the link above. A friend of mine said that she had heard from him a few times when she used to use Craigslist to hook up with guys. She's pretty glad she never actually dealt with him before though.

Someone probably snapped it up; Gacy paintings are pretty highly prized collectibles, from what I've heard.

For the record, if I had some extra cash and the chance, I'd probably buy one, just to say I had it. Don't think I'd display it anywhere, though.

I'm tickled by the fact that "guys" is in quotations like that. I don't understand what the quotations would be implying if they were intentional- like maybe one of them secretly isn't a guy- but even then, colloquially "guys" can be gender neutral.

No way, I'd way more trust some rambling "WE NEED A LADY WITH BIG BOOBS FOR D&D! WE'LL PAY YOU SOMETHING SOMEWHERE! COME NOW!" that looks like he just pounded it out that moment over that any day. I don't trust a dude who sits down and drafts up an ad for 'busty lady needed for elf game' and goes 'yep, this is a thing I'm doing'.

This guy had plenty of time to realize 'woops maybe this is weird', but just kept on going.

I am a 27F BBW. I have brown hair and brown eyes. Im new to the ABDL lifestyle, but would like to experience more things, but I will be honest in saying that I have NEVER worn outside of my home. I dont have much of a preference as to a mom or a dad, like I said, Im new to this and looking to learn and explore more. Id like my ideal mom or dad to put me in diapers and treat me accordingly, especially since Ive been having a hard time keeping my panties clean. :-( One aspect of this that not too many people talk about is discipline. I AM looking for a parent who is loving, but strict and not afraid to spank me and more. There are many aspects of discipline that I am open to and I feel that I have a need for this in my life right now. I dont wear 24/7 but being able to get into this "role" is very much an escape for me.

If interested please let me know what part of town you live in, and if you were my parent, what is it you would do with me. Please put mommy, or daddy or something like that in the title, or I will delete it. Serious inquires only. Please be open to IM on yahoo, and maybe even skype. I look forward to speaking with you soon. :-)
