But have you guys ever looked at the "missed connections" on Craigslist?  I didn't even know this existed till about 30 minutes ago, and holy s#@t!!!  I don't even know where to start.  I mean, is it stalkerish?  Is it just plain creepy?  Is it a place for some good ol' fashioned whoredom?  Does it really work?  Anyone know of anyone or have you actually met up with someone because of a missed connection post?  I don't even know what I'd do if I was looking through those for entertainment and saw one that absolutely had to be about me.  And maybe this works better for girls than it does guys, because I can't imagine the thought ever running through my head, at any point in my life, where I would say to myself, "yeah, I just saw this hot girl.  I didn't get to talk to her (or maybe I did and she left abruptly), but I'll just make a post in the classifieds.  Yep, that'll get her.  For sure won't creep her out."  Is this site not weird?  Or am I just weird for thinking it's weird?  Maybe this is something that everyone does, and I just haven't heard about it.  And what if some of my best friends are on there?  Like what if Phil's on there?  I can just see it now..."i saw you in the frozen foods section at Kroger.  I have a blonde mohawk and lots of tattoos.  You were buying green beans..."  Haha.  I just weirded myself out typing that.  And I'm sure Phil's gonna love that, too.   So far, here are two awesome ones I've come across, and I've only looked at one page in Memphis.  One of them kinda gives me the willies.  One just straight up makes me laugh

(name withdrawn),
I really wish you wouldn't have left the rooster like you did. You
smelled SOOO Good and Kissed SOOO Good I was really hoping to get to
know you!!!!!



AND

Im looking for a man who was In Indiana 1999...He ran with the county

For even more amusement, check out the "best-of-Craigslist" section. I discovered it last week while bored at work.

The Memphis Flyer used to run a good section in their classifieds similar to this. I wonder if they still do it.

You know what I find to be really funny about this? ..You could have just posted "Go to our new website, ingramhillmusic.com. Matt built it. It looks pretty."..And I totally would have done that with OUT being all fouled out by the stalker chronicle's. ....But I really am sad that you left Roosters like that. You really are a great kisser. :P..

I loooove Craigslist. So entertaining and a decent place to find furniture, that's quite a combo. Awhile back I did see a couple on Ellen that "reconnected". They had met in an airport during a layover and had both been too shy to exchange information. The guy made a post and the girl's sister is the one that found it. I think the level of creepiness/crazy depends on the region.

I know right! It is super creepy. What is even creepier is the "casual encounters". I read these when I'm feeling down on myself. Atleast I will never be THAT desperate to petition for sex on craigslist. I throw up a little everytime I see one that says "58 year old man seeking 21 year old woman" or something like that- icky.

Yeah, that site is a trip! I love the ones that say "I saw you at a red light, you were in a white accord, I tried to pull up to see you better, but then you turned. It was 8:30am..... Please send me a message back, telling me what you had hanging from your rearview mirror so I know it was you" lol HILARIOUS!!!! .. .. I did post on there, looking for an old friend. But, that's the extent of it. Didn't really expect them to see the thing though.

Did you never read the "I Saw You..." ads in the Memphis Flyer? It's about the same concept.

Have you looked at the m4m section? I'm pretty sure that should be next on your list. I've posted a prank on there with my friends phone number and he got quite a few phone calls that night. The post that I will never forget in the "missed connections" is when a guy couldn't stop talking about a stripper. "I'm in love with a stripperrrrrrrrrr"

I never knew about that! ..Creeeeeeepy McCreeperson!..I am always doing something ridiculous in public so I would never think that a stranger would find my silly antics alluring enough to find me online. ....If I were to have one written about me regarding the past weekend, I'm sure it would read:....Where are you my dear angel?I saw you dressed like Lady Liberty in the Pennsylvania Hotel in New York, NY. You look lovely in green! ....On the other hand,..Maybe I should check it out? haha..

I feel pretty sure when I say this idea doesn't work for girls either, and I'd get a restraining order if someone from 1999 thought it was "very important" to find me!!! ..creepy.

Um wow that is just a little strange. "He fathered my sisters son..." Yeah thats the way to find your baby daddy let me tell you. You should post a super crazy one and see if anyone responds. "I saw you two days ago run the red light at wolf river and g'town parkway. You had a flat tire, just thought you should know. Hope your ticket doesnt cost too much. You were pretty hot too. Want to go out sometime?" Lol DO IT!!!

i found one that is age appropriate for the blog (in case of teens) here you go jmo...looks like your phil actually exists, only here in huntsville rather than memphis ...."I saw you near the oj and then by the milk- you were wearing a northface jacket or fleece and jogging pants. I was wearing dark brown down jacket and jeans and I have short brown hair. I should have said something! Hope you're not married!!!" ............awesome.
