An ad posted on Craigslist is thought to just be a cruel joke but it may also turn out to be a post of a real-life Cruella. The listing was posted this month where the poster sent out warnings such as “I am hiding dog poison at dog runs“. The post had been flagged and removed but this didn’t pass the eyes of the Parks Department of the city, according to the NY Post. Dog owners were put on notice regarding the Craigslist posting.
Thankfully though, no dog poison incident had yet happen nor are there any evidence of such cases, Parks Department still deployed officers to spot check. They also told the NY Post, that although the post may only be a hoax yet they are still taking it seriously. The department is working with The Department of Health, Animal Care & Control, NYPD and ASPCA regarding the matter.
Do canine owners should be concern about the post? At least they know their Parks Department are not taking anything like a joke and would only realize that it’s real once a victim had already been killed.
If there are any desperate Craigslist posts out there, this one would be on top of the list. A fan of the New Orleans Saints really wants to go this year to the Super Bowl, so much that he is even offering his left testicle just to get Super Bowl tickets in return.
In his ad, he wrote “high capacity, O-, well maintained and larger than average, used for 22 years only”. The poster of the ad describes himself as a Caucasian male with blonde hair.
The transaction, as it seems, would only be completed once the game is over. So, if you are interested, you should give him the Super Bowl tickets first before you can get his left testicle. Hmm, now that doesn’t sound so fair now, is it?
There is this Craigslist post we spotted that looked like a very good start for a movie plot. It can be a romantic comedy that will surely be a nice hit! Here’s the post:
looking for a writer who knows how to impress women
Busy executive is looking for a good writer to send emails on his behalf in “match.com”
From the looks of it you can start thinking that the poster of this ad is an ugly and old man who is in desperate need of a lovely companion yet doesn’t have the romantic side that can impress the ladies to date him. So, he hires a brilliant writer to start impressing the ladies through match.com and here comes a beautiful lady who fell in love with the man who she thought is the person she was sending messages with. Later on she realizes she wasn’t in love with that man but was actually in love with the writer he hired to send him those emails! Too bad, the ugly old man realizes that it’s not the looks that can attract a lady but it’s really his personality and sweetness.
What do you think guys?
After posting an ad on Craigslist selling the Tonight Show, now Conan O’ Brien had another brilliant (?) idea. After all the drama with the Tonight Show issue, Conan now posted an ad selling himself under the Casual Encounters section on Craigslist. In the title of his ad he posted “Tall, Slender Redhead Available for Nighttime Recreation“. He posted an ad about himself using words that impose an intimate characteristic such as this line “tall, slender redhead available for nighttime recreation” and “completely ripped, very caucasian” as well as “can go a whole hour“. He added an extra humor to his ad saying he is currently homeless so he must meet with you at your place.
Too bad for Conan but he seems to be enjoying his Craigslist ads. He even talked about it in his show saying that the ads are real and he is getting thousands of responses from the previous ad he posted. The Tonight Show issue actually flares up more humor from Conan and Leno as they are sharpening their tongues and making comical insults with each other.
Guess we just have to wait for what Conan’s third Craigslist ad would be next time.
Help Desk Associate – Part Time
IT HELP DESK ASSOCIATE part-time, 20 hours per week
Temporary assignment that could become temporary for the right candidate.
Now this is another one of those funny Craigslist posts that make you think for a second and wonder what the heck the poster was thinking. Anyone interested in this job surely has no ambition whatsoever.
Sure you can work hard, be the right candidate and show them all you’ve got. But for what? Well, your temporary assignment could become a temporary assignment when you convinced them with your performance! Now, would you still want to make a good impression for that temporary assignment that will be a temporary assignment? Or does it mean that if you’re not the right candidate and that you make a very bad impression then the temporary assignment would become a permanent assignment? Whatever. Brain starts to hurt!

Read the ad and ask yourself, are you up for this job? Craigslist sure has lots of funny posts here and there but this one smells outsourced. Outsourcing for an ad writer ain’t a bad idea, as long as you pick good ones! If not, you are bound to get Craigslist posts such as this one that is enough to give anybody a bit of a headache.
Hotel front desk clerk that is computer illiterate? Give us the name of the hotel and we should all avoid them. Online booking would surely be confusing in this hotel.
It’s also a wonder on how they would get to assess “confidence” via phone interview when they also stated that they won’t be accepting phone calls. Well, nonetheless, this is an ad that caught our attention.
Conan O'Brien
Conan O’ Brien’s feud with Jay Leno had led to the Tonight Show’s sudden online auction presence in Craigslist. Yes, that’s right. Conan O’ Brian placed the
Tonight Show on Craigslist. You can read the ad here http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/clt/1551463643.html
Conan O’Brien is obviously bitter about the announcement of NBC that they officially replace O’Brien with Jay Leno for the Tonight Show and promised to pay him the remaining money off his contract with over 2 years left in it.
Conan O’ Brien had been cracking jokes against Jay Leno and the executives of NBC and the auction post for the Tonight Show is just one of his ways of showing his disgust with the recent updates on the issue.
Conan had refused to accept a later timeslot for a new show. It’s just amazing how Craigslist get different types of participants that it even became part of the O’Brien and Leno feud.
A very funny ad was posted on Craigslist and the title might seem interesting enough for snack lovers out there. After all, who can resist free stuff, right?
Here’s the ad, just censoring the store’s names.
“TONS OF SNACKS!! Pretzils, cheese doodles, corn chips
They’re in the dumpster behind Just-A-Buck on $$$$$$ next to the Shoprite in @@@@@ There’s like hundreds of bags in there”
Well, who would want to get tons of PretZILS? Why not some dumpster pretzils? It’s free and there are tons of them there.
Some people can just be so funny nowadays. Still, it’s nice to see ads like this time to time. We all need humor every now and then.
Someone got a brilliant idea for this Christmas season. Yes, someone thought of selling the ultimate gift this Christmas and posted it on Craigslist. What is this ultimate Christmas gift, you might ask? It’s no other than a baby reindeer! Yes, you read that right! Someone is selling a baby reindeer on Craigslist for an amazing price of $7,000! Probably Rudolph and Donner got too frisky and bored that it seems like out of nowhere, the baby reindeer was born!
Here’s the entire Craigslist ad. “I have for sale a Reindeer Calf. He is brown with buttons (no antlers yet, should have them grown in by mid-March). Rudolph is the stud and Donner is the mare. He is un-altered and would be great for breeding more reindeer because he is just so cute!! He is CKC registered and will only go to a loving home who will keep him indoors, where he belongs. I am asking $7,000. And that’s a steal for a reindeer. Hurry up, this deal won’t last long!!!”
Now, to those who may be curious and dumbfounded, this is obviously a joke. Who would want to keep a baby reindeer indoors? And for the price of $7,000, you could buy a lot of reindeers already. Anyway, this Craigslist post is very unique and perfect for the Christmas season, don’t you think?
It’s fun reading about lovers and how they met, right? This one will surely make your day. A couple shared their love story which started through an ad on Craigslist. No, it’s not an ad looking for love, but it was an ad for a roommate.
What started as a perfectly normal ad in search of a roommate bloomed into a wonderful romance. Corbett Campbell posted an ad back in 2003 looking for a roommate and Kristin Reed was able to spot his ad. She was in need of a change as her living situation is not so great. When she spotted the ad and saw the place, they both felt something but it’s not for the place. She invited him for a get together as she wasn’t much interested with the flat. And then, things started to look great for the two.
Corbett Campbell said that he would have blown it if he was allowed to convince her to move in. They started to date and it just bloomed. Now, the two are so much in love with each other but are not planning for any wedding in the future. Kristin said that planning a house and having kids would surely take over 20 years of their life and that should already be enough.
