    Craigslist has always been a mess both functionally and substantively. That the newspapers couldn't figure out how to compete with them on quality is stunning.


    Half the clist job postings in my area seem to be scams -- people collecting email addresses, pirating resumes/contact lists, etc. -- or from flakes. I was shopping for a used car three years ago and there were a lot of junk postings in that section too.

    I tried to buy a used "t-4-m" robot for my Star Wars collection. When I went to pick it up, some gal with a wiener explained some interesting stuff to me.

    "Hahaha when inmates kill themselves it's such a headache!" Uh yeah. It is. Same as when patient's who are on a psych hold kills himself.


    You are doing your job as a police officer or ER nurse. Someone you are responsible for pulls some emo bullshit and tries to kill themselves. Unfortunately, sometimes they succeed (whether they intend to or not) and your ass can lose your license, your job, and in today's economy the house where you are raising your children.


    And you know what, if you have had everything in life handed to you by your dentist dad, and then you gambled too much and figured you'd steal from hookers who can't safely call the police when you beat 'em up and steal their cash, and then you fuck up and kill the one that fights back, and get busted because you are too dumb not to get caught on tape, I have negative sympathy for you, asshole. And if you are so terribly depressed (not that you took another human life, but because you've destroyed your own) that you want to kill yourself, your attempt *is* a fucking headache for those around you. Its not tragic. You are a pathetic waste of skin and were it not for the fact that we're bound by certain laws of a civil society, you'd be happily assisted in your attempt.


    And for all the emotards who tell their friends they tried to kill themselves by taking a whopping 6 tylenols, do a little research on teh google, OK? There are tons of sites that will tell you how to effectively do yourself in (many with little or no pain... well except the pain of knowing that everyone in your whole life fucking hates you! Whaaa!) But if you insist on pulling your manipulative bullshit and then end up in the ER on a psych hold, sit down, shut up, and effing behave yourself. And if you pull some shit like slashing your wrists in the bathroom don't expect sympathy. Expect a Ferguson (or better yet 4 point leather restraints and an adult diaper to piss in.

    Getting a Ferguson sounds a bit bawdy.


    In a sentence: "He tried to give me a Ferguson without even buying me a drink first."

    Aw, poor SpongeBob, all strung out and sad on that thin mattress. I bet he regrets having pushed Mr. Krabs into that pot of boiling water just for stiffing him on OT pay.
