I often search for thigs on eBay.
Minor spelling mistakes on items I want. I've occasionally been lucky.

No live lobster games though.
Bloody hell.

Weirdness. It's not just for the Japanese.

Um... My bike was weirdly inexpensive and perfect for me... My couch is weirdly comfortable.... If you lie down on it, you will sleep. Every time. My washer is completely normal and business like.... My dryer came with only one heat setting.... Molten.... But has since been rebuilt by the service contract I took on it.....

So, no. Not really. I guess I didn't follow the true spirit of the thread. Just yammering on about stuff im sure I already shared.

I'm annoyed with myself over this now.

Found my bike on CL too...and lots of other things. Have also sold a bunch of excess music gear there. Not sure how weird any of it is. Got a great deal on my bike.

Actually, I think a bar/restaurant nearby that we went to a few years back had one of these. It was pretty expensive to play and I had no idea what the odds of winning were.

At least I know how the toy crane games are rigged.

It would be cool to have for a BBQ.

I'm sorry, I was hoping for weird, didn't mean to bring you down. I found a job on Craigslist. a real one that paid real money and wasn't in the sex industry.

No no... Not brought down... Just copping to being self centered there. It annoys me when people do it, so it should doubly annoy me when I catch myself at it.

You were right... These things belong in a different thread. It probably exists.... Probably one of those "what"threads. What cool thing did you buy on Craigs list today.... Or something of that nature.

I miss my motorcycle. Fuq this winter Wonderland buuullllsheeit. I'm sick of sub 30° cold. And fat guys love cold weather...
