There are 336 dimples on a regulation golf ball
Sitting around the house today, the roommate asked me to accompany her to the Edwardsville Panera Bread in exchange for her buying me lunch. Never one to turn down an almost entirely free meal I agree without question, well almost. The roommate told me she was meeting up with a girl off of craigslist so that the roomy could replace her now defunct IPod. This got me thinking. I’ve had a couple of craigslist purchases myself and they always seem to be incredibly uncomfortable. I once bought an huge pack of Mardi Gras beads and meet the seller at Einstein Bros. bagels. I knew as soon as I saw the women selling the beads; she had a long run of being the sluttiest most popular girl at Mardi Gras. I bought another set of beads from the creepy old guy that just didn’t know when to give up his partying ways and grow up.
So what is craigslist etiquette? If I were to have my way, the meeting place would always be public, a coffee shop, a restaurant, somewhere that the seller can’t kill you. Secondly, that both seller and buyer know the agreed price before showing up to the arrange time. Side Note: the buyer should have the exact amount asking the seller for change is a bit daring. Third and finally either the seller or the buyers job to give the other their description but not both simultaneously. If I know what you look like and I come in to by the Beatles entire collection on vinyl and you look like, the wild man from Borneo or the Unabomber, I reserve the right to book it, and with you never knowing I was there. Also giving a stranger your phone number is a bad idea but I do it all the time at bars when girls won’t get off of me so that’s not a smart practice but understandable.
Cards vs. Cubs this weekend. You shouldn’t be doing anything else but watching those games and consuming mass quantities of alcohol. Unless of course you have a doubleheader of kickball at noon and 1 tomorrow like me then you’re excused.
