Funny stuff on CL

Look what I ran across in the free section of Craig's List today:
Toilet Paper (Rosslyn)

Are you masochistic, have a fetish for sandpaper, or need a passive aggressive way of getting back at your roommate?!
Then this toilet paper is for you.

LIMITED TIME OFFER for free rolls of toilet paper which are sure to leave you asking yourself “what have I done to deserve this?!”

I bought this super environmentally friendly toilet paper to appease my hippie roommate; however a girl can only take so much before she puts her foot down and says “NO MORE! GIVE ME THREE PLY OR GIVE ME DEATH.”

*Note: there is absolutely nothing wrong with this toilet paper other than the fact that it’s rough and extremely unpleasant. It is however, free, and available for pick up after 5 o’clock today. I’ll even put it outside and mark it “Craigslist” so you can sneak up and grab it without anyone knowing your secret obsession with being uncomfortable. No need to email me, just come pick it up.

You can pick it up at:
1820 N Quinn St, Arlington VA. It is the “Rosslyn Vue apartments located just 1 block behind Ray’s hell burger.

Dee8go,
Forget the paper, try a wire brush or a roll of 60 grit emery !!
Do you know the origin of the saying "got the wrong end of the stick" ?

Reminds me of British public restrooms where the price of convenience is sheets of wax paper.

Ray's Hell Burger is great! That's the place they show Obama eating lunch at every now and then.
I mainly posted that ad because I couldn't believe anybody would actually put an ad on CL or ANYwhere for a few rolls of toilet paper. If anyone responds to the ad and actually takes it, I'll be REALLY amazed!
Anybody remember that stuff they used to put in the restrooms in elementary school? That stuff was like wax paper. Who comes up with this stuff?!

I had a female roommate one time that would not chip in on any communal buy (TP, dish soap, ect) so I bought some TP that was as described in the add and stocked the bathroom with it.
