Craig's List drops personal ads
 
Always got a laugh on reading the personals. Been a couple a months since I purused them.

Saw this notice when accessing them.

Taking PC to another level.

Mostly for hookers and pervs anyway, but true entertainment none the less.

(it's a good time to equalize divorce and alimony laws, then, since those are based on the idea of sex for money)

Theraputic/Services is still there.

There’s a thread on here where one of you fellas did CL personals to find a date to a car show, or event or something? Ring a bell?

Track day with a 911.

It ended with them supposedly headed out some time to ride horses, and nothing ever posted after.

As I’ve pointed out many times before, what politician is EVER going to alienate the “female vote” by taking away their easy money gravy train and actually giving the feminists what they claim they want - equality (as in, “you keep what’s yours and stand on your own two feet and the other party keeps what’s theirs and stands on their own - you’re each on your own now just like you were before you ever met”)? Simply, none. They all care only about reelection and to do the right / fair thing on this issue would guarantee they wouldn’t be re-elected since the women would go berserk for being called out. You’d see all the spite, vitriol and venom come out - “sexism!” they’d scream...

THAT would be fair and equal, but that’s not what they’re really after - they want the present-day “what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine” sort of equal.

So, as I read it, CL did this because a bill passed that said the women who are victims of sex trafficking can sue the websites that facilitated the exchange even if they had no knowledge of it.

Without getting too into PARF...how is this any different than a gun shot victim suing the gun manufacturer?

You guys really frequent CL for meeting people. :eek:

Well can’t sell guns on craigslist either.

Craigslist Personals in the early/mid 2000's was the equivalent of Tinder & Bumble of today.
It was like shooting fish in a barrel..... eh-hem, or so I'm told :)

Mike Andrew 03-26-2018 06:17 AM

I will miss them as they were always good for a chuckle. Now where can hookers and fat girls advertise their availability?

pwd72s 03-26-2018 10:19 AM

Now how can a guy get hookers and blow?

tabs 03-26-2018 12:31 PM

Ohhh Dear where are the Snowflakes supposed to pick up their Twinks...?

Well, looks like Backpage just got shut down. Wonder if they'll go after traditional online dating sites? Ya never know. :rolleyes:
