The New Black

20 most bizarre Craigslist adverts of all time

5) Woman to sit in my bath tub full of noodles, wearing a bathing suit
"I will pay you $1 to sit in my bathtub full of noodles while you wear a one piece bathing suit. I will not be home, nor will anyone else while you do this. I will leave the key for you, and you will sit at your leisure. DO NOT bring any sauce. I will season the pasta after I return home prior to dinner."

7) I have a huge bathroom"I am a female in my mid 60's and I am looking for a room mate. Times are tight and I need some extra money. I am willing to rent out my bathroom in my 1 bedroom east village home. My bathroom is large. You can easily put a twin air mattress in there. I only ask that when I need to use the bathroom, you or your air mattress are not in it. I do ask that when you are in the apartment, you confine yourself to the bathroom. I do not feel comfortable with a stranger walking around my living room. This might change as I get to know you better."

11) I took your purse and felt a connection
"Tuesday night around 11:30. On 53rd btw 1st and 2nd. You came out of the subway and I followed you. You looked over your shoulder, saw me and started walking faster. I ran up, grabbed your arm, took your purse and ran away. I've done many a snatch-and-grab but no one has ever 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 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."


12) Looking for bridesmaids
"So, my fiancee and I are getting married in June. He has 8 groomsmen lined up and I only have one bridesmaid. So, I need some girls who are attractive and around my age to stand up in my wedding. You can be single or taken. It doesn't matter....you just have to be hot. But, not hotter then me. Email me for more information. The wedding will be in Madison and you won't have to pay for a thing."

14) My teeth"I left my Dentures in your Silverado last night. I gave you my number but did not get yours. Please call me asap. I need my teeth. We met in the parking lot of Margarita Jones. Get back to me asap please. Thank you."

20) 300 stuffed penguins
"I'm going through a pretty weird time in my life right now--having just gone through a break-up and graduated college and temporarily living in my parents' house before I move out for good in in the fall, though I remain unemployed because my philosophy degree is at *such* a premium--and sifting through my room (which has become a strange amalgam of my adolescence and burgeoning adulthood), it's been brought to my attention that I probably won't "catch a man" or have anyone believe I'm about to turn 23 with 300 penguins and a bunch of purple furniture around, that looking at my current room one might think some sort of 13-year-old with developmental issues is living here."

Asking someone to call you after you rob her!

Losing your false teeth in a stranger's car!

Advertising for moderately attractive strangers to be your bridesmaids!

Oh, the humanity.

This totally made my day. I'm in tears over some of these in the article, especially the pony, the eggs, and the free couch.

This is why Craigslist entertains me! I'm pretty sure many of these are fake, but they are still good stories. Like a dollar for someone to sit in a tub of noodles while the person isn't even home...funny image. But I don't think they're serious. If so, I would ask for more money.

Hmm, maybe I should check out CL. Back in the day I used to love reading the personals, especially on Sundays when they were usually really expanded. But I think that CL is too huge, I might get addicted...

OMG..was one about the lady and the bathroom for real?

burgundy_locks

has anyone ever thought about responding to any of these? LOL.

Also, i think its halarious when people get upset about a post and do like, a follow up post with nothing but curse words, etc. that cracks me up!

I’m not sure if this ad is authentic but it’s giving me a stitch in my side and a flashback to when I lived in Vancouver. I once answered an ad to rent a den in a condo. When I went to view the “den”, it was nothing more than a broom closet; the room was located right behind the entrance door and it didn’t have any windows. The closet was only big enough to fit a mini bed (no walking space and no drawer space). The room reminded me of a coffin.

Anywho, thanks for the comic relief.
