It scares me to think that someone was reviewing the Craigslist personal ads period.

I hadn’t read your blog in a while and thought I would do some catching up and then I see this post… wow. I’m glad you found out about it though and I love your response. :)

Kris, I want to be your friend. I think my penchant for tripping over things and your nerdy glasses would make a dynamic duo. We’d be like superheroes. Only with cheap wine and a lackluster wardrobe. P.S. freckledk? Totally start that vibrator buddy phone tree. And sign me up.

[...] Dear Chicago word pilferer, I hope you’re still single. An open letter to the woman who cut and pasted a local blogger’s writing into her own personals ad. Not A Girl, Not Yet a Wino. [...]

This must’ve been the same person who copied my real estate listing from Craig’s list. WORD FOR WORD. I know some people aren’t very creative and I’ve been told it is a form of flattery but I was SO mad when I saw their ad I wrote a scathing reply. I felt much better and they removed my copy :)

That is TOO funny and so crazy! Hope you had a Happy 4th of July, and I can definitely understand being angry, aggravated or upset!

…your eighties WARDROBE! That’s really funny. I’m going to go try to make a link now.

I am a lazy blog reader. Eventually I will make a link to your site from my blog because I love reading your stuff. In the meantime I am amusing myself by repeatly getting here from my usual link, where it says “UPDATE YOUR LINKS, YOU EIGHTIES….” something or other - I’m not a speed reader, okay? Anyway I think that it’s hilarious, and you are correct - at least about me. It’s like a subliminal message that keeps flashing before my eyes every time I visit your blog. But I’m not willing to succumb to it yet. Since I know it’s there, I just can’t resist going back to see what the rest of it says, so you’ll be getting a lot more hits from me in the next few minutes. Or maybe for the next few days…however long it takes!
