Hi there readers! I’m Fry aka Aidan.
As I’m sure you can tell, I am not one of the usual writers on this blog, but am rather someone who was granted an opportunity I couldn’t pass up, and a promise I couldn’t abstain from doing.
(A quick disclaimer for personal and legal reasons, I, and the other authors/editors on this blog, do not condone any illegal activities in any form. Anything posted in this article should be read for purely entertainment and informative reasons.)
A few days ago I was offered, or rather offered myself to write an article for the esteemed Trendy Juice blog. Having suffered from a possible foodborne illness, origins unknown, I had a lot of time to myself, most of them on the toilet. In my boredom I rediscovered an interesting site that most of us are at least familiar with… Craigslist. Back in my day, me being a nineteen year old guy, we used to go on craigslist, look at all of the sex ads and get a good laugh out of it. But in my need to create an interesting post for Aloe and Macaroni so I don’t disappoint them like my father, I needed to do something that never in my life I would have dreamed of, posting my own advertisement. There were a couple requirements I needed in order to make this post look at least somewhat real, they’re as followed;
- I needed to make it look entirely less obvious than it really was. Or as least obvious as a post of this nature can be. I realized the perfect way to get my point across to someone who knows exactly who they’re looking for while still maintaining innocence was to pose as a “plumber”.
- Unfortunately if you’re just posing as a plumber in the missed connections section of craigslist, there will still certainly be people who will contact you looking for a, yes that is correct, real plumber (What no way!!).
- I’m not a seasoned “plumber” in any aspect, let alone in this sense. So this was the best I could come up with. So the final piece in the cog to my potential jail sentence was to just “send it”. Literally. After going through some hoops, I was finally able to get it published on the missed connections page for an entire forty-five day tenure.
So, if you’re in the Sandusky, Ohio region and would like to participate in my studies, you are more than welcome to. If not, join me in this experience over the next forty-five days. The success of this post will most certainly be defined by how many people actually go on craigslist as well how desperate people are during quarantine. I hope you enjoy my potshot attempt at something semi interesting! Enjoy!
