Craig's Followers

So I’ve decided that I dunno what “Craig” had in mind when he started his “List”, but he couldn’t have foreseen what it has become. I mean is there anything creepier than a Craigslist transaction? I say this to you as a 6’2 black male who really doesn’t feel as if he’s gonna be kidnapped or anything, but think about it… You get these people who always want you to come by their creep pad or even worse want to come to your residence to “check out” all merchandise for sale. I don’t want those random ass people to know where I live! Infact I’m pretty sure that’s one of the ten crack commandments ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRRGlVVZzkE ) “Number 5 …never sale no crack (or in this case craigslist goodies) where you rest at, I don’t care if they want an ounce tell em bounce!” I mean why can’t we meet at a public location or something? And while I’m on the subject of meeting people and comparing these transactions to drug deals… Why does it always have a drug deal vibe when you meet to sell or buy something from someone on craigslist… I mean it’s always in front of some remote location at night, with instructions to pull up to the black car on the corner, roll down the window and make the exchange. I might as well learn the secret handshake while I’m at it… And don’t get me started on all the crazy ass phone calls you get from unrealistic people expecting you to sell whatever it is you’re selling for 10% or what it’s worth… it’s like “I know in the ad I said I needed money, but quit asking me if I’ll take 45 cents and a piece of already been chewed gum for my 50 inch plasma.”… All that being said, If there’s a deal on craigslist I’ll investigate which makes me a proponent of the perpetuating cycle that is Craigslist
