=0 - HELP!!!!!!!!
So, hello..my name's Art. I'm in a bit of a spot here..I'm writing you from NYC. I moved here last Nov. to be with my girlfriend and well, the happened and now I'm moving back--which is very okay cause NY really really doesn't have the good flavor that the Bay Area does.so i know it's really difficult and I've got a long shot in hell being that I'm way the hell out here and I can't use my charm on you, but...here's my situation: I will be in SF by or around the 13th of May (driving across)...I do have a few friends and a brother in town that I can call on in a last-ditch situation, but the quicker the better...I'm a trance dj originally based out of Santa Cruz and have lived in the Bay Area off and on for a while. It looks like i needed to move out here to really realize what i was missing. Um, I do not have a bunch of cash (maybe shouldn't tell you that..) but I am very responsible once I get cemented, I'm really really cool :] and I won't give you shit for being you. I'll be 29 in June, but my spirit's on a whole different timeline which means I don't take life too seriously and I do take it very seriously, if that makes sense to you.I have opened back up connections with previous employers and have a few good options regarding getting work right away. Basically put, I can't offer you many of the prerequisite factors of a new rommate (butt load of cash for move-in costs, stability, etc...). What I can garauntee is a kick-ass roommate that does maintain all known factors (unless you're freaky in some way) of what a good roommate situation is.Another possible situation is this: my best friend Robert (another dj) was originally going to meet me out here (he's in Fresno *gasp* now saving money) until NY proved to be only a shadow of what SF is and is now working his way to meet me in SF on June 1st. He also is as copecetic as me, both being very mellow guys, fun, sincere, very aware and reflective, responsible, and respectful. He, however has been planning for this for a while and does fulfill those other aspects of the new roommate equation (he got money) and we've left open the option of the plausibilty of sharing a room (-both of us are single [now]...he's bi and intermitent / I am very not interested for a long while). Basically, both of us are moving to SF (..were going to do this in NY) to bring to light our musical (and spiritual) culminations, both producing and performing within the underground scene starting with our first event June 30th in San Leandro. We are both from in and around the area and are very poised to bring very special events into being throughout the area (--if you're having 2nd thoughts with having djs in your home, let's get back to that "respectful" aspect...we understand and will work with you).Third scenario (a short one): I am not financially all too stable right now/ Robert is..if I don't look good and both of us together can't work, please consider him for the room..he is really one of the absolute sweetest guys I've ever met (a humanic anomoly when compared to the general type of population). He has the money, a job, and I know you'll like him. Well, that's our lot. If you've made it this far, either my writing's gotten better or you actually think we're cool.ps..there is a picture of both of us attached. I'm on the left, he's on the top, the guy in the middle's Steve --he's the Knome king from Santa Cruz so, I hope you're mulling this over in your head or at least thought it was interesting. Please contact either of us if there's a possibility with you or if you might know of someone else who's looking for roommates or if you (or someone else) has a closet or living room or garage or basement/washroom that shouldn't be housing someone but it would help your rent, we like that stuff...Anywhichway, hope to hear from you of course but if not, i sincerely hope you're having fun here on Earth and try to remember what's it's really all about sometimes...love, light, and walkabout-thinkingArt (djseek) spaceshipgaiacollective ++ theChiaroscuroProject__― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 10 December 2002 21:25 (10 years ago) Permalink

You're not trying to "peak" interest, you're trying to "pique" interest.
You're probably not looking for a "discrete" relationship, you philandering buttwipe, because you don't know what "discrete" means. You're looking for a "discreet" relationship.
One female human is a "woman," not a "women."
People who make these errors should not be having sex.

re: If I look 33 and feel 25, does it make me 29? ;) - 29 - 19Reply to: anon-99741924@craigslist.orgDate: 2005-09-24, 6:20PM EDT
I am a guy!!!! To answer the headline question:If I look 33 and feel 25, does it make me 29?This question brings up many thoughts to this obviously bored individuals need for entertainment. So let’s begin shall we?
Ok it appears as though we have a syllogism here
If I look 33and feel 25does it make me 29?
So let’s take this argument and dissect its intent
If I look 33And feel 25Am I 29?
I think you see where I am going here as you probably realize that you cannot be 29 based on just feeling and looking an age. In fact, Age is based on a time construct created by man based on earthly rotation and revolutions around the sun. One ages in years based on these revolutions around the sun. So let’s take the argument again.
IF I look as though I have revolved around the sun 33 timesAnd feel as though I have only revolved 25 timesDid I revolve 29 times?
Now this argument is leaking worse then an Army engineered levee.
Conclusions, There is no possible way you can be 29 years old based on this argument.
Thanks for humoring me.Oh I am 41, look 33, but feel 5, does that make me 19?
* this is in or around maybe

Dear Catherine-
When I offered to buy you a drink, I was only being polite. I'm not that into you. Frankly I was surprised when you accepted, since you had a half full glass in your hands.
So where did you go? What the fuck am I supposed to do with a glass of Bud Light? I don't drink that shit beer.

seeking any woman with a garage - 33
Reply to: pers-386221✧✧✧@craigsl✧✧✧.o✧✧ Date: 2007-07-31, 1:09PM HST
I recently ended a relationship with a wonderful woman, we just were not meant for each other. I am seeking a new relationship with a woman with a nice garage. The garage does not have to be enclosed, but must have plenty of lockable storage. A workbench would be nice with good lighting too. I live in town, so the garage would need to be located near UH. The girl will need to have a sense of humor to be able to put with my odd sense of humor. I am open to any race, ages 22-45, perfer thin to average, and physical beauty, but less attractive women need to make up for it in "garage".
To alleviate your curiosity, I will now describe myself. White, male, 33, 5'10", exercise regularly, modestly attractive, fun to be around.
I thought i would give CL a try since I keep meeting women who live in condos. Mahalo for reading my listing.

Greetings,
Our apartment building has been a veritable revolving door over the past few months (thanks in part due to the excessively permissive flexible leasing system instituted by our notoriously spaced-out landlord) and our apartment has been no exception. Our current roommate, a nice beefy self-proclaimed hillbilly from the Twin Cities and a die-hard Cubs fan to boot (which naturally fueled malicious little one-liners from my former naturalized Southsider tendencies) is moving in with his long-standing girlfriend (who, mercifully, is a die-hard White Sox fan) following the dictates of Cupid which thankfully won over a frankly trivial raging century-old intra-city rivalry.
Of course, considering the fact that White Sox won the big one in 2005 while the Cubs have been . . . .
Never mind. Cubs fans know the facts very well while Sox fans would have used arguments along similar lines several, several times in the past, particularly in the wake of the Sox' misfortunes this season.
(Hmm. This is worrisome. I'm a Southsider purely by academic vocation only and don't really know baseball that well. Yet I talk the talk. I'll confess to not being wholly capable of walking the walk)
However, back to the main intentions of this post. The apartment is a spacious unit with three bedrooms, a basement, two bathrooms, a large backyard, a large kitchen and a living room area. The apartment is situated around 5 blocks away from the Six Corners and is on North Avenue.
The dramatis personae who currently inhabit this financially serendipitous piece of real estate are currently three in number.
One is a nice little 24-year-old blonde girl from Iowa who used to attend Columbia College and now intends to pursue academic interests in forensics (which I shall maintain to my dying day is the result of too much CSI). She has a big scaredy-cat of a dog who is probably one of the frendliest mutts for blocks around. Nobody who has crossed this threshold (save the landlord, strangely enough) has ever been greeted by anything other than a vigorous wag of the tail and a friendly "smile" on his face, as the little blonde girl puts it. Do not mess with the little blonde girl. She might be tiny and almost always alternate between sleepy and sweet. But, be warned, she listens to Rancid and Drop Kick Murphys, is tattooed (well, ONE tattoo) and will mess you up in extremely diabolical ways if you feel the need to be a jerkwad.
The second character is the aforementioned dog. He's neutered and he knows it. He will also fetch you one of his toys (once he gets to know you better), hold it tantalizingly just beyond your grasp and then run at top-speed into the little blonde girl's room where he shall energetically chew it every time he espies you after this baiting incident. You have been warned. DO NOT FALL PREY TO HIS TEMPTATIONS. BRING YOUR OWN TOYS TO CHEW ON.
The third character (and almost certianly the most minor in the roll) is a 23-year-old boy from a magical land far, far away. He's an aspiring economist, a wannabe investment banker, a graduate student at a smarty-pantsy university in town and purveyor of all good things literary, culinary, cinematic and musical. He's a vegetarian, usually smarter than a doorknob, frequently complimented by mothers of winsome young lasses to be a good-looking boy, easy-going enough to be a pushover without being a punching bag and is currently struggling with a newfound discovery that he has inexplicably and unprecedentedly become very, very shy around girls. He has no explanations or deductions about this. Applications for, ahem, things OTHER than the room in the apartment will be gladly accepted and be duly processed expeditiously by the boy. Since he's single, he will PERSONALLY give you big, BIG bonus points if the prospective applicant has hot, fun-loving and flexible FEMALE friends. His mannerisms are often British (though he's not), smart and world-wise and will insist that certain words must necessarily be written a certain way, Microsoft Word US Edition be damned.
This boy is currently the writer of this post.
Still with us? Good. Well, qualifications for prospective applicants are:
1. Pretty please with a cherry on top be in our age range (which would approximately be around 20 - 26 years of age in human years). This means that people who whistle and wittle twigs into fanciful representations of Lyndon B. Johnson as they "remember" him or people who need fake IDs to get into bars and clubs and still have the smell of high school lockers on them would be politely spoken to and firmly refused any further consideration.
2. Pretty please be clean, hygenically repronsible, a frequent washer of one's own plates and cutlery, financially responsible and suitably well-rounded and tolerant. We occasionally watch soap operas for the hot chicks (well, the boy does) but we would prefer it if we don't end up in one with a significantly less attractive and less wealthy cast of characters (once again, this is all from the boy).
3. It is generally preferable if you are the owner of a bed for your room (and a big point in your favour if you are the owner of a television and a stereo, adds the boy, so that he can play acid jazz and soothing lounge music on the stereo and watch fanciful foreign films with bad subtitles on the other).
4. The little blonde girl has said that she will be more open to female roommates than she was before. So, the little blonde girl has one bonus point for you if you're a non-bitchy female. The boy is unconcerned about the gender of the applicant as long as the applicant has hot, fun-loving and flexible FEMALE friends.
5. Bonus points if you're a student and are still financially stable. Double bonus points if you know and appreciate the arts, cinema and music in particular. Triple bonus points if you have a sense of humour.
This advertisement is being published a WHOLE MONTH IN ADVANCE (the place will be available by September 2007) because the last time we ran an advertisement on Craigslist, we were swamped by over a hundred applications, which we assume would be due to:
a. The conducive location of the apartment. The apartment is in one of the nicer neighborhoods in the city peopled by many interesting people and is strategically located close to grocery stores, convenience stores, Blue Line stations and bus stops.
b. The ridiculous cheapness of the place (considering the neighborhood) without the inhabitants being similarly so. The landlord of the place is accomodating, friendly, slightly mad and very flexible with the lease. A security deposit of $400 would be required and all utilities will be shared.
However, unlike last time, no telephone numbers would be provided here for you to call. A correspondence with detailed information about the applicant is deemed absolutely necessary (please take note of the amount of detail WE are providing you about us. Appreciate that and reciprocate. This would be one basic quality we are looking for in our prospective roommate), appointments will be booked (and hopefully maintained), viewings will be scheduled and finally, a telephone number will be provided just so that you don't get lost while looking for the place.
A decision will be made in consultation with the landlord (WHO WILL NOT BE MEETING YOU) and you shall be informed via email about the decision. If you're selected, you will receive information as to whether you could move in any time earlier than September (which is entirely possible, thanks to the urgency that Cupid inspires in young people) and any other relevant updates that you should know.
Peace out, ladies and laddies.

Hey hey, are you a free-wheeling, happy-go-lucky, creative class, 20-something person who loves the show New Girl, playing frisbee in the park, and being within a 1-block radius from at least 2 Citibike stations? (...) Did we mention how much we're all obsessed with the show New Girl (actually only one is...)? We even have a douchebag jar for those who leave dishes in the sink. (...) We're really looking for a cool, sociable person who fits all of our unique personality niches

So I need someone whose willing to come into my house and stay for a few weeks or however long it takes to become possessed, and then take the spirit out of the house and far away. When you become possessed where, and how you rid the spirit from your body is up to you.
Also: an atheist will do fine.

I guess paying to get rid of a demon just isn't economically feasible for some folks
― Nhex, Wednesday, 15 May 2013 01:55 (1 month ago) Permalink
And why pay when you can get atheists to house them in exchange for use of a hot tub and a pool table? ("House" is probably the wrong word there.)

These people are actually swingers and will believe their boarder possessed when the residents grow tired

This would be a wonderful chance to through a debauched party and blame it all on possession.

I seriously want to kill almost everyone on this website. People who write twelve-paragraph, Yelp-style reviews celebrating themselves and their awesomeness without ever getting around to where the place is, how much utilities are, whether the room has a window, etc. etc. are disgusting savages.

Are you sick of all the cover bands out there that have terrible musicians and cannot look the part. This ad is for a cover/original band that two brothers and two more friends have formed for your enjoyment this summer. We will play any venue outdoors or indoors. We have professional sound equipment and a semiprofessional sound technician. Our band has great chemistry and absolutely no drug problems. We just like to sip beer and play rock like it used to be. We have gigged at local bars in the Waconia area, and we have a gig August 3, 2013 at Waconia lanes. Our favorite bands to cover are van halen, led zeppelin, collective soul, and the cars. However we will play whatever you want us to. Our keyboardist is a mix of Freddy mercury and billy Joel. Out lead guitar can play a pretty good angus young or jimmy page. We are all in our 20s and love to just play rock how it once was. Our bands name is Bandammit. We are on Facebook and we sell merchandise. If you have a wedding, anniversary, grad party, or you are a local bar owner and you miss the classic rock. We are it. Professional looks, sound, and attitude. We charge between $1000-$2000 a night and we will play 1-5 hours. I'm the manager/lead singer. My cell is 952-356-2190. Call after 6pm or text anytime. I will answer promptly. Lets not let the rock die here people! Available June-September weekends.
2 grand. Sure...

Could go either way - I'm gonna sit this one out 'til I see how the gig at Waconia Lanes goes. They do play rock like it used to be after all. They even sell merchandise!

Wait this has been appended to the the original posting:
So if you like HAIRBALL BAND but don't have the $30,000 to hire them, we are similar in style and performance at a 10th of the cost! Sound too good to be true. We will audition any weeknight. We practice twice a week sometimes more. Thanks for checking us out.
Who are HAIRBALL BAND?

I'm pretty confident in saying Hairball gets nowhere even close to $30,000.

Obviously fake but beautifully, lovingly crafted, my hat is off to Duluth.
Do you like to alt-rock? (Duluth/Superior) Hi there. My name is Mack. This is my first attempt at starting a band. Have you ever been out to one of the bars and seen the likes of Trampled by Tortoises or The Lows or The Car and Truck or The Accelerators or the Sarah Cougers or the Charles Parrs and said to yourself, "I wish I could do that!!!" Well I know I have. I know that Duluth and Superior is LOADED with musicians. But I want to start a band with people like me - people that "got the look" but not necessarily the skills to play music. Do you have a beard? If not, can you grow one? Can you rock a scarf like nobody's business? If you're like me, you have a guitar that needs tuning. Don't worry - they Music Go Round can do that for $14.00. And my brother Curtis was in a band back in the late 80's and he gave me is old Peavy amp but the distortion channel cuts in and out. I've also got the old clarinet I played in marching band in high school. I don't exactly know how it'll fit into our sound, but we should try it anyway. "And just what will we sound like, Mack?," you ask? Have you heard of the Lumineers, or Of Monsters and Men, or the Mumford and Sons? I think Duluth needs more bands where guys wear vests and suspenders and scarves. I don't know about you, but that "Ho, Hey" song has been stuck in my head ever since the first time I heard it in the trailer for Silver Linings Playbook. If you're interested, reply to this ad via email. Don't be shy. We can get together over a 30 pack of Stroh's and hammer this thing out. Let me know what instruments you have. I like banjos as much as the next guy, but I don't want to get dissed for beating a dead horse. Mandolins and Ukeleles and other folk instruments are more than welcome. Washboards? Sure! Horns? Bring them on! We'll probably also need a drummer. The more irascible the better. And I think our drummer should wear horn-rimmed glasses if at all possible. We'll discuss this more later on. I have connections to get us gigs at Thirsty Pagan and Beaners. And I know RT Quinlan's is in a rough part of town, but we should probably consider playing there. And Luce. That's like the launching pad for every successful Duluth band. Also, basement shows. Everyone is welcome. Girls too, especially if you're artsy-looking. LGBT friendly. 420 friendly. No jocks.
