Details

Picture this: Author and troublemaker Gary Fingercastle posts hundreds of mock advertisements on the popular website www.craigslist.com and receives real-life responses in return. And because truth is stranger than fiction, this is what he learned:
  • You can purchase anything on the Internet (like bear cubs and tattoos for children).
  • You can give anything away on the Internet (like haunted armoires, torture racks, and mummies).
  • People will do anything for money (like driving into walls at high speeds and starving themselves for five weeks straight).
  • And finally, men will do anything for sex (like, but not limited to, jumping into a lion pen, dressing up like a Christmas tree, posing as Jon Goodman from Roseanne, and dating an ex-convict who murdered her husband).
This book is the hilarious and oftentimes horrifying collection that really makes you wonder—what were those people thinking?
