Cut yourself some slack, unless you're hawking your presents already.

It's not an instrument for everyone, that's true. I know loads of bass drop outs. |

S. | Dude.........
1. Complete the phrase "People who live in glass houses......"
2. Understand the meaning of the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black".
3. Look up the difference between "Add" and "Ad".
4. Look up the difference between "hawking" and "hocking".

But the second one seems relevant considering the listing and the occasional twitchy nature of CL sellers.

"it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests" is attached to every CL advert. unless you (the lister) decide that you'd like to be contacted about commercial interests.
peace... the advert. DID make me laugh

learning for real in the beginning sometimes is NOT fun, it is time consuming, full of effort, and you cant put it on "pause"
