		<description><![CDATA[What is the best way for an aspiring fashion designer to get a big break? Well, for starters, you can post a Craigslist ad directed at a specific Oscar nominee to make their gown. In a ambitious (and kinda desperate) attempt to make it big, a guy named Michael is soliciting his design services to make Sandra Bullock&#8217;s gown for the Academy Awards. In fact, he wants to make her the &#8220;belle of the ball&#8221;. The homeboy has even made a spec dress now and is holding an open call for Sandra look-alikes so that he can do a photo shoot that will hopefully get sent to Sandra. Now that&#8217;s dedication&#8230;with a dash of neurosis. Sure, it&#8217;s a tad desperate, but you got to hand it to big Mike &#8211; the kid&#8217;s got balls. I mean, when you have nothing, you have nothing to lose, right? Furthermore &#8211; Sandra might jump on this because we all know what magic Craigslist can bring to a person&#8217;s life &#8211; and I&#8217;m not just talkin&#8217; about those m4m rendezvous. I&#8217;m actually curious to see what will happen&#8230; Check out the ad by clicking here.]]></description>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I LOVE it when people get into arguments on <strong>Craigslist</strong>! And it&#8217;s even better when it&#8217;s on the m4m missed connection portion &#8211; it&#8217;s so catty! </p>
<p>In this particular public argument, two people go at it with such fervor:</p>
<p><strong>dear asshole checkout boy at rainbow grocery. &#8211; m4m (mission district)</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>i waited the extra 10 minutes to get in your line because you kept staring at me. you were pretty cute, even after i noticed your love handles. i was purchasing some pretty expensive herbs and probiotics because i have been sick lately and they are the only thing that make me feel better. i came in specifically on thursday because of the 20% off coupon. i forgot my coupon this morning the rush out of my house. i asked if i really need the coupon because i had forgotten it. you responded with the most snide and eat shit &#8220;yeah&#8221; i think i have ever heard. thank you for being so fucking rude and not swiping that coupon you have on top of your register for me. you owe me $15. i&#8217;m a poor student. that could have fed me for a day. thank you for putting a damper on my morning. i hope the rest of your day is plagued with extremely annoying new wave burning man hippies and that your line never ends.</p>
<p>my favorite line from abfab: &#8220;you can drop the attitude. you just work in a shop.&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>&#8230;and then someone answers:</p>
<p><strong>Dear Rainbow Grocery Shopper &#8211; m4m (mission district)</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Rainbow Grocery is expensive! What the hell is a cheap-skate &#8220;poor student&#8221; doing shopping there? Methinks you&#8217;re more upset that he didn&#8217;t slip you his number than you are about the $15.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m hoping you&#8217;re not majoring in English.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8230;then it gets GOOD:</p>
<p><strong>Re: dear asshole checkout boy at rainbow grocery. &#8211; m4m</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>You&#8217;re the poor, whiny candy ass who can&#8217;t even afford to get by in this town and you&#8217;re criticizing ME? A student huh? Well for being so supposedly &#8220;youthful and slender&#8221; you look pretty lousy. Here I thought Clay Aiken was the ugliest gay guy under 30.</p>
<p>Perhaps you&#8217;d be a happier more contented and less lonely person if you went straight? Stop stalking me at work! You ought to be ashamed of yourself!</p>
<p>At least I can support myself and don&#8217;t ask for handouts. I don&#8217;t just work there I own a piece of the store genius. I also don&#8217;t stalk people as you obviously do. </p></blockquote>
<p>Some of this doesn&#8217;t even make sense which makes it even more enjoyable&#8230;and I don&#8217;t think that it&#8217;s only 2 people. I am so tempted to go hang out at Rainbow Grocery just to see this kind of action.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love to look through the missed connections on Craigslist; not only in hopes to have a serendipitous storybook romance that only happens in movies, but to also be thoroughly entertained.</p>
<p>Today I found this one:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Question: What does &#8220;dickpainter&#8221; mean? &#8211; m4m (castro / upper market)</strong></p>
<p>Someone called me a dickpainter the other night. What does that mean?

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?</p></blockquote>
<p>I don&#8217;t know what it means, but based on this video, I think it was a compliment:</p>

<p>I really do not know how to feel about that video.</p>
