YSaC, Vol. 1658: Close (To The Edgie)

2014 January 29

Edige,sofa table and more – $20


I HAVE AN EDIGE,WOOD WITH GLASS SHELVES WITH MATCHING SOFA .PLS CALL ###-###-####.NO EMAILS PLS.I ALSO HAVE A LOT OF NICK NACS,OFFICE STAFF,VCR,VASES….FOR SALE,cjheap,cheap.

It’s just not fair. Here at YSaC we have a ridiculously difficult time getting good office staff. I mean, sure, we expect them to dress like tarsiers on Fridays and engage in mandatory team-building gavotte practice twice a day. But still – this person doesn’t appreciate how lucky they are, when they can just sell their staff off on Craigslist.

Maybe I should have the Llamanun pick us up a few, just in case. Then we can give them all edgies as a hazing ritual.

Thanks for the post, Kris!

    If it’s a matching sofa, is it also wood with glass shelves? Are the office staff that you’re listing used to sitting on it?

      I, too, was thinking that a wood and glass sofa would be pretty uncomfortable to sit on. Maybe it’s in the employee lounge, to discourage the office staff from lounging too long.

    I collect Nick-nacs myself. I have a whole room filled with little random objects, all of them featuring Nicolas Cage.

      My favorite show in the sixties was “Nick Nacs—Private Dick”….He often had cases with broken glass shelves, missing office staff, and problems with VCR’s eating tapes. And guess what???!….he usually solved the mysteries by going on Craigslist ….(and yes, I know, this was before CL existed, but work with me,OK??)

      I read that as Nick-nags and pictured a room full of Nichole Richies.

        I think you’re confusing Nick-nags with Nick-skanks.

    Er, given that the primary item for ‘sell’ is an “eidge” the possibility that “staph” is also for sale must be–painfully, squickily–considered, too.

    Uhm, while edging around the topic like salmon treats at naptime of a cat convention, has anyone mentioned to Nick that a “nac” inventory might be a good idea?

    Is that a Jeep CJ heap, cheap? What model CJ — it makes a vase difference. Does it hold the office staff?

    And will the edige fit in it also, with the sofa on the roof?

    I’ve never liked sofa tables myself. They’re just not comfortable to sit on and they won’t come clean when you spill cereal on them.

    Is it legal to sell your office staff? ‘Cause it’s been illegal to sell your house staff and other “employees” for ages now.

      Kati, those were the days, you could load up the gardener, the parlour maid, the cook, and the laundress, and head out to the swap meet. Some times we bartered our butler for a bargain batman!

        bargain batman

        The hero we don’t need and definitely didn’t deserve. The one whose spare tire stretches the seams on his batsuit and who’s kinda ambivilent about the comings and goings of Gotham’s underworld. The one who sometimes forgets to wear his cape and cowl, so he has to run around with one hand covering his face so nobody recognizes him. The one whose batmobile-painted Chevy Nova got towed because he parked in front of a fire hydrant at such a sharp angle he was blocking the flow of traffic during an all-night bender at seedy al Ghul’s Gruel. The one who was reported seen climbing the tree outside Barbara Gordon’s window muttering “I’ll be your dark knight.” The one whom other supers call a cautionary tale. The one who got punched by Clark Kent after asking “why have I never seen you in the same room with that guy with the S?”
