And I really don't care what you have on craigslist! (I know most of that is bs.)
I found my apartment on Craigslist.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Many of the specific listings are BS -- like, I notice the same pictures being used for multiple listings that claim to be different apartments, or the broker has one cheap place listed that somehow is always already rented when you call, etc. I just don't put much credence in the actual listings.

Yeah, the best way to filter out the bs is to look at by-owner listings only, but that's a hell of a lot more work if you're looking in a different city.

I forgot to share my freaky dream with y'all.
not sure what was going on but in the dream were Billy Bragg, Adam Lambert, drunk Irish tourists trying to drug a drink of mine, a race of some sort including vans of college students, missed airline flights, me being in an episode of Castle like it was real life.
thanks crazy head.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Not that Craigslist isn't mostly BS, but I found both my house and Cat #2 on CL. The house, I moved into without even seeing it first (I was pushed for time); I got a six-month lease thinking I could always move out... I loved it; a month later it came on the market, and the owner sold it to me without even taking other offers. Perfection. Cat #2 was also perfection, exactly who Leo and I needed. That said, CL is still hideous and full of crazy people. Wasn't there a serial killer murdering people he found on CL?

Ah. I never encountered that, but I can believe it.

Yep.

Technically I think he is still an alleged serial killer.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sorry Ginger, but amych cracked me up with her Hawthorne-fu.
I had a weird ass dream last night too, but no one famous in it unless you count Shamu.

He was murdering hookers he found on CL.
And don't get me wrong; I'm totally using it to look, just not getting invested in individual properties on there.
