Craigslist: Missed Connections

craigslistmcbanner_big.png

Same thing, another week. As you move on to the next line on the calendar, you're still out there trying to make a connection. Sadly you let most of them slip by without saying a word. We understand, no one wants to be overzealous and get shot down. If only you had some place to find a second chance. Oh yes, Missed Connections. If only you had someone to sort through and find the best of the above. Oh, right, read below....

You looked at me, and I farted. Loudly. - m4w


It was at a BBQ this saturday, and the guy next to me wore a baseball shirt that said South Austin Whiskey Dicks. He looked slightly mentally challenged. I was the guy leering at your enormous bazoombas. I tapped you on the shoulder and playfully asked if I could call you Tits Magee, and you turned around to look at me without the faintest hint of amusement in your eyes. And then I farted. Loudly. My inebriated/retard friend yelled, "Suck my dick, BITCH!!" But it was to no avail. You left the party, but you haven't left my heart. Please respond.

Now, THAT'S a class act. I'm sure that she's probably still holding a torch for you. Or perhaps a match, as it were. And fyi, she prefers to be called Nebraska. And she's way too cool for you anyway.

City Hall (De) Brief - w4m

One Goofy Council Person Free now, so says the paper So am I. You: wishy washy and politically driven Me: willing to put up with spinelessness You: always a comment for the media Me: okay with an amoral opportunist Let me know where we can meet * Location: Central Austin

We'll tell ya council member, the ladies are hot for power. No matter how little it might be. Now if only you were representing a single member district, then you'd really be scoring the action.

babydoll, i'm coming back to town

how could i have left you? i'm rotten. take me back. i'll buy you cigarettes and booze day and nite.

We don't know who you are, but you've got yourself a deal. You do know how much this is gonna cost you, right?!

Oh, you know who you are... you stopped calling my roommate back!!! - w4m

Dear asshole.

You and my roommate used to be dating, and you guys were having a great time. Yes, you both went out of town for awhile, and that was hard on the budding relationship. But you're both back and I want you to get your shit together!! Take the girl out and hang out with her, for the love! She's hotter than you and witty and funny and you need her in your life.

If you don't take her out by Saturday (ahem, a special day), and raw, smelly eggs happen to land on your house/car, don't look at me.

love,
her roommate

Sweet jeebus, there's always got to be a sarge. We don't need your threatening bridesmaid speeches, we don't need you going psycho best friend, we don't need our bunnies boiled. The dude is probably an asshole, so guess what?! Let him go far, far away. It will be better for you friend in the long run. But guess what, you're still a crazy bitch.

all the hot guys who run town lake - w4m

i just want to thank all the hot guys that run town lake saturday mornings. shirted/shirtless you always make my walk that much more enjoyable god bless texas men keep up the good work. yall look delicious. * Location: town lake

If it wasn't for Lady Bird Lake, where would Austin really rank in both quality of life and quality of Missed Connections? Somewhere near the bottom on both we assume. New York has the Meat Packing District, Austin has the meat market known as the Hike and Bike. Thanks Lady Bird, for helping us hook up in such a beautiful setting. That is all...

That's it for this week. If we missed any of your favorites
just post them for us all to view. We'll be back next week with a new
round up. Until then, may you find Peace, Love and
Connections.

    These are always the amusing highlight of the week. What about combining this with the best of Austin Chronicle's Shot in the Dark? Those are even better because folks try to make them as short as possible.
