yeah, but you gotta work at reading through those lines, as to what is truthful, and what is just posing

Yep. I would call them and show up wearing a t-shirt that says "Warning: I do dumb things." Yep, I own a shirt like that.
I didn't really see what the problem was with this one other than being wordy...until I read the last two lines.

The poodle bites, the poodle chews it.
This is either a poorly executed scam to sell a terrible bass or was posted by a seller who is blind:

These are the pictures (I can't seem to spot the "Brownish/Sunburst" bass, but can kind of make out a black Thunderbird that looks like it was hit by a sandblaster and is now stored under a police interrogation room spotlight):

My guess is that it was a sunburst that has since been spraybombed flat black...which makes me wonder how much I'd burn my fingers on it, if I was foolish enough to buy the thing.
This isn't music related, but...

The poodle bites, the poodle chews it.
I would actually be interested in sitting down with this person and jamming if it were in my locale. Not seeing the dumb in this one.
It wasn't when she placed the ad.
What I find the most odd about that ad is that her husband moved out and her biggest concern is getting rid of a gallon of milk he bought?
we probably are missing the ads for the "deer head, ammo boxes, tools" and other cool guy stuff he left behind.
I am thinking this guy knew his old lady was vindictive enough to give all his stuff away and thus cleared everything out when he bolted, leaving her nothing but the old milk to give away.
Came across this one here in good ol' State College.
I think this ad just about has it all: a "band" that pretty much is missing all of the players in order to semantically be thought of as an actual band, pseudo-intellectuals who are naïve enough to think anarchy is actually realistic (and are most likely Penn State students, which is one of PA's state-related schools...damn that government for helping subsidize my education!), influences that make no sense when considered together (e.g., The Clash and Louis Armstrong?), insults towards other people and players who don't fit into their idea of what is cool, bad language in order to try and appear hardcore and edgy, and the promise of no gigs or crap gigs (e.g., busking).
Somebody sign me up to play with these Chumbawamba wannabes! I bet these are the type of intellectually dishonest people who sit around, whining about bands selling out but unironically worship the Sex Pistols despite them being put together in much the same way 90s-era boy bands were.

RICKY the DRAGON <~~Metal SHRED Master--World Tour**
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
RVA Daggers,
I'm RICKY The DRAGON, and I'm offering a once in a lifetime opportunity; the chance to join me on a 2015 World Tour. North America, Japan, Madagascar Europe, Booze Cruises, Brazil, Australia....you name it, I've probably got something lined up or already booked & confirmed. Balls to the walls METAL, brotha. This **** will be epic, like when the Vikings pillaged the highlands, and torched the villages of the shire. This Tour will be awesome...screaming fans in every city, await the arrival of Ricky the Dragon. Metal Mayhem Complete with midget tossing, bottle poking, pantie sniffing, limousine riding, going down Space Mountain like Ric Flair type ****. The metal messiah, Ricky the Dragon, will bring the pieces of Pangea back together! The world will reunite through his Metal!
Ricky the Dragon is the best AX greasing Metal machinist alive today. I am the Ultimate Shredder that could have taken those ninja turtles out in less than a minute. Master splinter can suck deez nuts. <~~
Without Question, I am the CHOSEN ONE. Ain't no 40 years in the desert ********, or FBI burning down our Waco pad, shenanigans, going down with ya boy, RICKY***** 5 Star, Mofos....,Damn Right! My skills are plentiful like nutsacks and sausages at a high school party. Ain't nobody like me, homie. I'll beat any hee haw cotton picking Chinese food eating, scalawag that thinks he can defeat the Reigning Champion. I am the Wizard of the Shred, the 6 string master, and the leader of the 7 kingdoms. I am Ricky the Dragon.
Ricky's Bio
I was born in a foreign desert land, raised by coyotes and buzzards, until I reached my early teenage years. Then, I ventured on the most ultimate quest of discovery and understanding. I've been isolated in the tundra of the ice lands, and also immersed in the urban landscapes of Babylon. During this voyage, I was blessed by the divine mystics of the underworld, and granted the vision to become the voice of the future. The gift to play guitar like no one else, is one of the many tremendous abilities that I have earned in my 25 years on planet Earth. Yet, I think my guitar playing is the best mechanism for me to connect with the people. I am the best guitar player in the universe, and deemed by the God's of planetary alignment to lead a Revolution of metal enlightenment. I have only strengths. My notes bang like a shack door...My solos soar like a Pterodactyl, And my scales will become legendary like King Soloman's Temple. I am the enchanted path....the Temple of the Dragon will rise!

Just so we are clear, little dragons, I am the Zeus of this enterprise. I am the income. I am the product. That said, I'm chill like Mrs. Brady's 70s bush, and I don't think there will be conflicts that we can't resolve. Cause Metal Rules, and everything and everyone else...can join the unicorns down in "shoulda thought bout **** before chasing glorious rainbows and getting my wings clipped by comets & asteroids " ~ Quote the Dragon.
So, where ya at headbanger freaks, speed demons, cotton mouth Stone Agers, Power Violence hipsters, Doomsday preps, wanna be hardcore locos, burn ya at the stake Metal Heads? I need a REAL Drummer like kill em's Lars or the dude from Deicide. I need a real bass player like cliff...Not the Indian dude or Jason the Toolbag. You gotta be able to keep up with Ricky's wicked tunes...can you shred with the chosen one? And, Ricky's got the vocals covered like your grandma's old beat up pull out sofa bed. I can sing high like the sirens of the Greek isles, and low like your wife's discreet affair. Also, I DO NOT need a Rhythm guitar player...cause Ricky's pinky, on a cold morning, can shred better than any of you wanna be Cheetos. But, you can still be "little Dragons at heart" you can still try to be a roadie for Ricky's Fire Breathing Shredding 2015 world tour. "We shred, you wipe....just like in the porn industry."
~Quote the Dragon
Ricky has sponsors lining up to endorse our group and support our tour. You will need some gear for the next few months, but I'm sure you will receive all kinds of perks, in the near future. I see a Ricky the Dragon movie in our future....Cause our metal will change lives, and everyone will want to be aligned with the Dragon Revolution.
So, shoot me a message and give me a description of yourself, interests, and why I should invite you to the Dragon's Lair to check your skills. "The Real deal has zero need or desire to prove himself to the fake & phony"
~Ricky the Dragon
PS: For all you haters & doubters that question Ricky as the rightful heir to pick up where Slayer left off, you will see the Truth very soon. And for those of you that want to insult Ricky's appearance, weight or whatever; I've been doing weightwatchers and P90X for last year, and look amazing. Double chin vanished like Al Capone's lost treasure....I am flexible like a Korean gymnast...My muscled pronounced like a Italian sculpted Adonis. But, I'll let my Ripping abilities demonstrate that I am a Metal Monster that will melt your face if you **** with Ricky the Dragon. I am the past, present, and definitely the future of Metal. I am Ricky the Dragon.

Ricky is awesome! He needs a washboard player, so I'm sending him a message right now! Or was that the acoustic Sex Pistol wannabe. It's hard to keep track of all the awesome these days.
