my most recent craigslist ad
I have a clean, smoke free, stain free, rip free couch with a hide a bed in it for free in the Richmond District of the CITY OF SAN FRANCISCO. I’m not talking about the city of Richmond. It’s like we don’t exist out here, no one’s heard of this neighborhood? You’ve heard of the Golden Gate Park right? The Presidio? The ocean they call The Pacific? What neighborhood lies in the middle of all that glory? The fucking Richmond. Sorry, but I hate people not understanding this and calling to say they’ll be over in ten minutes when they are in Albany. That’s more like a two hour drive. Anyway, because it has a hide-a-bed, I can’t donate it because they don’t take hide-a-beds. So I’m giving it away. If you want me to bring it to you, I will. It’s not insanely heavy. Two strong people can move it. I will charge a mere $25 dollar delivery fee. I will deliver in the city of SF, preferably The Richmond. This is a picture of the side. It is loaded on my truck and I can’t get a full picture of it. This is the side. It’s cream with tan pin stripes. Not gaudy, not over stuffed, just a simple square couch from the 1970′s? that never got much use and shouldn’t be thrown away.
NOTE: Please respond only if you can take delivery of this by 11 pm tonite! And that means helping me get it in your house, I can’t do it alone.
Wow, it got flagged for removal! I guess cuz I swore?

The CL police are on the case. Just take the “fucking” out of there and it’ll stick. Or put it on the sidewalk like the rest of S.F.
