I'm calling fake on this. Anybody who makes enough money to be able to afford a mac book is surely also smart enough to realize that posting the phrase "I don't want to get a ton of messages from you guys" on Craigslist is an invitation to get flamed, regardless of how stupid the thing you say after it is.

But, pretending it's serious:
1) Depending on the kid's age, she should be offended that he's involved in any sexual activity.
2) If he's old enough to be having sexual activity, he's old enough to go get a job and buy his own damned computer.
3) He's just going to take that laptop into his room and look at some very very high definition gay porn.

This is an outrage.

I'm straight; where's my computer?

LordJiro		2012-06-13 09:09:34 PM

So if he stops being gay, why would he WANT a Macbook?

/oh come on, it was too easy.

Yea, not so much. People are ready for sexual activity when they're ready for it, and overly policing it doesn't do anyone any good.

It's "retina" display, not "rectum" display...

I completely believe that this is real. Mainly because I told my parents I'd go straight for a new car in college. They bought me one.

/Suckers.
//No I don't feel bad about it. They sent me to two years of "ex-gay" therapy beforehand.

SphericalTime: Lots of stupid bigots make tons of money. Larry the Cable guy?

In all fairness, Larry the Cable Guy is a character. The comedian himself actually doesn't seem to be a complete moron when he's not in character.

He figured out to make a lot of money off of very dumb people and I begrudgingly admire that.

Coco LaFemme		2012-06-13 09:13:47 PM

I'd surmise that close to 55-60% of the ads on Craigslist are complete bunk. This being amongst them. I mean, really.

A few years ago you used to be able to find/google videos of him out of the "Larry" character performing in comedy clubs. He's actually a pretty intelligent fellow.

How hard can it really be to make money off these people? You could take a rock out of your backyard, paint it black, and sell it to one of these chucklefarks by saying it's a Democrat-repellant device. Shiat, if you lived near a quarry or something, you could pull in enough scratch to pay off your house.

These people are farking imbeciles, is what I'm saying.

Isn't using/wanting a MacBook homosexual activity?

Karac		2012-06-13 09:18:13 PM

Reminds me of one of my boss's programs. Anyone who smokes at least a pack a day can make a bet with him any time they want. If they manage to go cold turkey for at least a year from the start of the bet, he'll give them 5 grand.

Me and another guy asked if it was OK for us to start smoking just to take his money.

I'll pledge not to have sex with men in exchange for a new, top-of-the-line Mac laptop every year.

Right. Because denying your sexuality works really well. Just ask anyone at the Vatican.

Nope, they still find me and my "lifestyle" unacceptable. My boyfriend is not invited to Christmas/family functions/etc.

Fun side story: My little brother came out to me a few weeks ago (Mom & Dad don't know yet). He also has a boyfriend and is planning on telling my parents in a few weeks, once he's moved into his new place (he just graduated from college). They've looked to him as their golden child for years (for grandkids etc.) and now they have no "backup" kids.

Karma is amazing sometimes.

If you need to sell a computer, no one really gives a shiat why. Just farking name your price and be done.

Attention whoring.

General rule of thumb, people who are very good at playing idiots are usually quite smart.

That sucks. It really sucks- and who knows, maybe you and your brother can start new Christmas/family functions at one of your houses. Invite them, and if they want to come and see you guys for the holidays, they'll have to get over it.

I hope things change eventually. It has to suck to carry all that hatred and confusion around.

Lots of stupid bigots make tons of money. Larry the Cable guy? A number of Texas oilmen? Most of the members of the Saudi royal family? And don't get me started on the number of them that only make two or three times the U.S. median.

Not to stray too far off topic, but you know Larry the Cable Guy is a character that comedian Daniel Lawrence Whitney made up, right?

He reels in lots of proper redneck fans as well as lots of critical folks who easily buy into the redneck stereotype. I bet he's seen enough bigotry to write a best-selling book from the redneck and non-redneck perspectives.

Mind of the North Star		2012-06-13 09:23:50 PM

Wait, wait, wait... so it matters what sexuality you identify with if you go all an hero ?

I thought all people who did were just weak, selfish idiots and/or had crappy parents... mostly the former.

Oh I know they will.

Fortunately, I live on the east coast and they're stuck in flyover country. Just because they call doesn't mean I have to answer.

/You can't argue with religious nuts

Careful, there. Sometimes, if Daddy won't by them a new Retina Macbook, they simply find a new daddy who will.

Anyone smart enough to make tens of thousands of dollars is surely also smart enough to not send it to Nigerian scammers.

wildcardjack		2012-06-13 09:27:50 PM

Step 1) Gain access to someone's personal email account.
Step 2) Post something inflammatory to Craigslist and use email account to confirm it.
Step 3) Tip off a blogger that would be inflamed by the ad.
Step 4) Laugh your ass off as your mark from step 1 gets flooded with raunchy emails.

I am getting a kick out of this because I am the golden child delivering a grandchild

/my sister is a lesbian (but my parents are accepting of her and her wife/partner/"roommate" etc)
//actually not getting a kick out of it because my wife's step-sister put her oldest through take the gay away counseling even though as early as two years old she would talk about knowing her son was going to be gay because it was that obvious.

I would add to WhyteRaven74's definition that they have to be intentionally funny while playing an idiot (which does require quite a bit of intelligence). Therefore, Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, and Snooki would not qualify.
