craigslist woman
i moved to seattle a couple days ago, and my first day i found THE perfect couch on craigslist. it was exactly what i wanted and it had just been posted! i called, told the woman my name and phone number, where i was and how much i loved the couch.
me: "i'm getting in the car now and going to an atm. i'll be at your house in 25 minutes- is that okay with you?"
she said yes, and i was there in less than 20.
me: "hi i'm outside your house- green one right?"
her: "the couch has been sold. i just sold it to this guy."
me: "what? but... but i drove straight here and i just spoke with you less than 20 minutes ago..."
her: "well it's gone. craigslist is whoever gets here first. tough luck." *click*
i went nuts. i'm from chicago where people tell you shit to your face. i was standing outside her house and she didn't even have the decency to come to the door. not only this but in the car ride there i had gone on and on about how she sounded like the first nice person i'll have met in seattle. everyone had been rude. irate i started screaming obscenities (i'm a young cute girl so it's not like i'm scary), i even screamed at her neighbor who was gardening. "your neighbor in the green house is a F******* B****" was someone about to cut off her dick if she didn't give them 125$ in the next 10 minutes? does she owe money to the freaking mob? the funniest thing was as i yelled and cursed and called her by name NO ONE reacted! for a good 4 or 5 minutes i screamed and not even the neighbor gardening 20 feet away could be bothered to look at me! she just kept staring at her damn dirt like even it was above me. when i got home i tried to forget about it, and thought that i did. i went out drinking with a friend and had a bit too much... the next morning i realized between shots of jaegermeister and puking i had sent the couch woman about 25 text messages, basically repeating my obscene rant outside her house. there was only one message in my inbox: "i think you have the wrong number."
i didn't have the wrong number... she is just a rotten self-centered shrew.
