You know how you see those bored housewife type characters in t.v. shows, and they're always reading trashy romance novels or watching soap operas?
That's me, except that instead of soaps or romance novels, I faithfully read the Craig's List pet section every day, several times a day. Why? I'm not sure. I already have two cats and a dog. Getting another dog would effectively reduce the chance of my ever getting married to about .5% while raising my chances of becoming a dog soccer mom to 99.9%.
While occasionally I do come across some awesome English Shepherd dogs, I have found that most people breeding dogs and selling the pups have awesome creative writing skills. This leads to some fabulous ads, of which I will now share the highlights. (Please go to the bottom if you cannot decode these.*)
While the ad itself is not that hilarious, you'd think if you were selling AKC anything from excellent lines, you'd know how to correctly write the name of the breed.
( shiatsu = forceful, deep tissue massage. Therefore, baby shiatsus = bad idea)
(This one did take me a while to figure out, by the way.)
Then, we have a host of ads for a family of small dogs. We have chigugas, tea-cup chigwagwas, chihuhas, chiwawas, apple-head chiguhas, etc. I think these dogs are all related...
The saddest thing on Craig's List, though, is the large amount of lost dogs listed there. These dogs are always found "wondering around" and are always very "skiddish." If I had to guess, I would think they are probably wondering why they keep skidding so much. That just can't be comfortable.
