Wow. Does anyone besides me want to go rent a room from this guy for the express purpose of releasing an actual pig into the apartment? Preferably one who has guests over late at night, rarely showers, and expects to rent the room for eight months.
Thanks Shelly!
No, not at all. Why would anyone think you were?
“Iam a very good person to get along with no worries from me”
Yeah, I suppose he’s right, as long as his new roommate is a chair or a light bulb or perhaps an envelope.
Sparky is gay-friendly and wants a roommate who basically does nothing but sit quietly in one place …
Sounds like we finally found a new owner for Mike the gay betta.
Mike has no proof of id, but he does have proof of ego, and super-ego too! And I LOVE bunnies. More hasenpfeffer, anyone?
Awww, you’re right! It’s a match made in…. Well, it’s a match, anyway.
A burnt one, most likely.
MOM!
Mom, Dad, the short-term tenant is ruining my life again!
My brain… it melted… *twitch*
Time for a little Coasters:
Fe-fe, fi-fi, fo-fo, fum
I smell 420 smoke in the single room
Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He wants no clown, that Charlie Brown
He’s gonna throw the pig out
Just you wait and see….
Why is everybody always lying to me?
*Sorry, I woke up with that ear-worm. It’s a little scary.
Hidden in this ad is Charlie’s hope that two hot lesbians will rent the room and not notice the hidden camera in the cable box. Sigh.
He’d have to make an exception on the “no couples” rule in that case. I’m not sure Sparky is flexible enough for that.
“If its a couple rent is more and so is security for two people always”
If it means he can charge more rent, apparently he’s good with that. 8)
:ding-dong!:
Hello?
Hi, I’m here about the room for rent…
Don’t step on the rug! I don’t like people touching my things!
But how am I supposed to see the room?
Go outside and up the fire escape, I’ll open the window for you.
:several minutes later:
Okay, this isn’t so bad.
Don’t touch that – it’s mine!
But it’s the bed – how am I supposed to sleep without touching the bed?
There’s room on the fire escape for a sleeping bag.
… Okay, what about the bathroom?
You can’t use it, it’s mine. There’s a McDonald’s around the corner.
… I’ll get back to you.
But can one use pearl-white slim-line push-button digital telephone with automatic last-number redial if one minds the wallpaper?
(Totally forgot to check in yesterday)
Sooooooooieeee, renter, renter, renter!
Terrific!
That’s some pig!
“Bensonmum, come here!”
“Yes, Mr. Hughes?”
“Any response to my ad for a renter for THREE TO SIX MONTHS ONLY??”
“No, sir there hasn—-“
“Bensonmum, you’re touching..things..again.”
“Yes, sir, I suppose I am but I must wipe your behind for you, sir. I know how you feel about *things* being dirty.”
:flush:
Yorkshire terrier bunny turtles,
13 in a half feet!
Sparky power!
13 in(ches) a (+) half feet (6″) = 19″ x (by) 8 in(ches) a (+) half feet (6″) = 14″
Ergo, “Charley” is renting a shoe box or a doll house (wonder if Chas is a Tuna?).
Leaping to the presumption that the putative room is 13′-6″ x 8′-6″, that’s a whopping 114.75 square feet. So, the rent, $575, works out to $5.01/sf, and no mention of use of a bathroom at all. Plenty of empty lease space available (locally) for $2-$3/sf, and at least the one bathroom, and Charlie will not be all “Francis” about “stuff touching” too . . .
My brain iz having a hurtz
IF, I cannot adore this enough even if the adores were unlimited. 8)
Nothing longer than three to six months unless told otherwise. The way he’s phrased it, repeatedly, it sounds like you could come in and maybe do a Jedi hand wave and go, “You will rent this room to me for sixteen years” and that would be a-ok.
I occasionally think about putting up an ad for a roommate, but I know that if I were honest about what type of stranger-roommate I would feel comfortable renting to*, my ad would look something like this, and I also know that no one in their right mind would be willing to pay solid money with those kind of restrictions/expectations.
$575 a month to be permitted (maybe) to huddle in fear on their bed? Where is this apartment, Park Avenue?
*There’s stuff you don’t mind from your friends or lovers or certain family, but when it’s someone you honestly don’t know, the “don’t touch my stuff or make any noise” factor goes up exponentially, I’ve found.
Actually now that I think about it, I bet it’s in the Hollywood area… and the person placing the ad is none other than Charlie “Easy To Get Along With” “Winning” “Don’t Touch My Stuff” “Tiger Blood” Sheen.
Well, Charley may be under house arrest, and the ankle bracelet comes off in 3-6 months . . .
Hmm, now wondering if this is a basement and Charley Mom & Dad are requiring some sort of income flow for the next 90-180 days . . .
This has got hikikomori written all over it, including the over-passionate, under punctuated, wall of passive-aggressive strictures.
Well, at last! Welcome to my world.
Felix Unger!
Felix the cat!
Maybe we could suggest the stuffed Pufferfish from a few days back for a roommate? It *might* be quiet enough to satisfy this guy.
(That ad keeps bugging me. Puffer-fish have poisonous spines, and it said nothing about them being neutralized.)
Rabbit Roulette is the name of my Echo and the Bunnymen cover band.
[corey]Rabbit,
I’m no expert, just a reasonably knowledgeable sort of person. I’m thinking that the freeze-drying that is used to preserve those puffer fish is sufficiently desiccating to make the spines less toxic.
That, and I’m wanting to remember that the common puffer is more an irritant than a neurotoxic risk (fugu, lionfish and the like being less-common, and not found as taxidermy).
[/corey]
I would hate to see the note he left you if the toilet seat was left up and you cooked hossenfeffer for dinner.
“Newly Renovated N” is IF’s N’ Sync tribute band.
tl;dr
wall of text on be clean is unclean
Was there any mention of kitchen or bathroom privileges?
And unless I missed this I’m really surprised that there wasn’t an explanation about the need for the short term arrangements.
I think 3-6 months might have been mentioned somewhere in the ad.

> working Responsible FEMALE Preferred or a Male with no bad habits at all
um, see, i have this bad habit of taking a shower once a day (on average) – ya know, to be CLEAN. But, since water is not included, that makes it difficult to bathe and be CLEAN. hhhmmm such a conundrum. Wait i know! i’ll just be a “working responsible FEMALE Preferred” instead! Anybody got a sharp knife handy? And the name of a good pimp?
> my house is not a hang out or a place for squaters
Well damn. After my “surgery” i’ll have to be a squater to use the bathroom – right? Wait! Since water is not included, that means no bathroom, so, i wouldn’t be a squater. Wait – house? What house? You got a house too Charlie?
> iam not loud or want that or need it in my apartment or the building i live in… Iam a very good person to get along with no worries from me i just hope you wont give me any or trouble because i dont stand for that or tolerate it in my house AT ALL!!…..
Wait – you ALSO live in a building Charlie?!?!?!? So, let me get this straight. Can’t be loud in your apartment or the building. And no worries or trouble in your house. i need a scorecard to figure out whether i want to rent out the room in either your apartment, house, or, building.
> The room is private..
OK, i gotta consult with my imaginary friend Rosemary, cus she may not like that. Ya see, she is a bit of an exhibitionist and doesn’t really like privacy – but she is really CLEAN. And, she isn’t gonna be living with me – just visiting. But, we are great friends – cus i’m a pervert dontcha know.
> once in a blue you might be able to pick up wi-fi from the neighborhood not all the time though …
OH! Rosemary LOVES to steal wi-fi – we’ll take the room!
[to Dan (BBUH)]
Actually, loosing a pig upon Chas here would not be so very messy.
Not unless he slops the pig and lets a “waller” form.
Now, if a non-corporeal entity were created, say “The We Can’t Clean a Kitchen Living Trust” that entity could suit Chas to a “T.”
And, Chuckles included “420 friendly” in the ad.
So, do you think he’d mind if we stashed these 15 five-gallon pots of,
hemp, er, Oregano in the room? They’ll be clean, and not invite friends over after the bar closes . . .[/topic]
After seeing the poster’s name is Charlie, I immediately read the whole rant in the voice of Charlie Day. However, I think Charlie’s character on Always Sunny would WELCOME pigs.
Wow, I just burned my entire lunch break reading that drivel.
I think I need a YSaC post screener.
CLEAN YSAC POST SCREENER WANTED.
I PAY OBOS THE MOST UNLESS OTHER WISE..
420 friendly, but no drugs? Okay there Sparky.
I’d write ads like that too if I were 420’d out of my mind.
I love the clarifications in this add.
“families meaning mother father and kids”
“liar that would say one thing and do and say and show another thing and way about them”
As opposed to those single-person families and liars that tell the truth. It’s almost like saying one has no bad habits except for chronic smoking and frequent drug use.
Wait…
anyone else thinking it must have been a quiet day in Craigslist for anyone to accept this long (and by long I mean not short but extensive) posting?
“hey, we’ve space to fill, anyone got anything long?”
Well Hallo Sparky Charlie
Well, Hammy, you made me break my new rule about no one in the box two days running. I hope you’re happy. And Taco, I’m sure Sis learned everything she knows about humor from you, so you should get a half punch for every time she’s in the box. 8) Punchity Punch Punch.
Good Morning, Good Neighbor Sam!
I helped raise her on video games and sarcasm.
It’s kinda surprising that she turned out so well.
*Hides*
I suppose with everything else happening here, Chuckster’s actual correct spelling of “chihuahua” got lost in the shuffle. Well I found it impressive.
Unless Charlie is a girl, Charlie is lying about being straight. No straight guy would have a purse dog and a bunny, even the turtle is quesionable.
My thought is that Charlie is a saddly illiterate woman with OCD and commitment problems who will die surrounded by stuffed animals in about 80 years.
