Top 10 Creepiest Craigslist Posts

Sunday, July 13, 2014 14:52
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

(Before It's News)

When you think about places to post advertisements, rants, and just general ridiculousness, Craigslist should be at the top of the list. Each and every day, hundreds of thousands of people flock to Craigslist to buy things, look for love or sex, and look for jobs. With so many people coming together in one place, you can bet that hilarity will ensue.

Thankfully, the Craigslist Gods foresaw such a possibility, and the Best of Craigslist was born. Essentially, the Best of Craigslist consists of numerous posts about many different things, having been nominated for a prize.

When perusing the oodles of entries, you can tell that some not-so-funny ones were selected by people who just decided to be idiots and nominate worthless posts. Such people clearly have lives that they are ashamed of, and if they aren’t, well, they should be!

However, there are some true pearls of mediocrity on Best of Craigslist. These posts have made their way to the surface of the oozing amounts of crap exuded by numerous other posts.

That is why, the following posts should be thought of as “The Top 10 Most Ridiculous Craigslist Posts of All Time”:

10. A free, previously used urn

Obviously, the post title gets one’s attention, and is the epitome of ridiculous. Who in their right mind would want to borrow or receive a free, previously used urn? Where did the contents go? Are urns so expensive that you have no other choice but to get a used one? I feel it’s like buying aused toothbrush. As you read further down the list, the weird stuff gets even worse. Check it out!

 

9. Missed Connection

I recently came across the following missed connections ad:

~ I took your purse and felt a connection ~ 
Tuesday night around 11:30. On 53rd btw 1st and 2nd. You came out of the subwayand I followed you. You looked over your shoulder, saw me and started walking faster. I ran up, took your purse and ran away. I’ve done many a snatch-and-grab but no one has every stuck in my mind like you. There was a quick moment when our eyes met that I felt something strong. I think you felt it too. If I wasn’t so shy (or so committing a crime) I would have asked for your name. I, of course, later got your name from your drivers license. So Jennifer if you’d like to get together for a drink sometime get back to me.

I don’t think Jennifer will ever think of dating a creep that stole her purse. The only connection the two have – she’s a victim and he’s a robber. Would you want to date this creep?

 

8. Bath in Ramen

Brooklyn women who have bathing suits, are down for a 30 minute soak in a tub full of ramen noodles, and are looking to make a quick $175: Look no further than this stupidest Craigslist ad I’ve ever seen. I wonder why Craigslist was not quick to remove the advertising.

 

7. Seeking collaborators for Mark Zuckerberg based start-up religion

An anonymous Craigslist user posted an ad hoping to find others who would want help to create a startup religion where Mark Zuckerberg is the worship guru. The original post was in May 2014.

The scriptures of Zuckerbergism describe a religion that is a mixture of real-life people and places, as well as Sci-Fi and fantasy. The religion’s founder says it would take an approach similar to “Greek mythology or Japanese Anime,” with great stories about mythical gods and goddesses.

Someone get me a barf bag, I am about to puke.
