I'm guessing that wasn't his brightest idea ever. - Vindexus, on 12/27/2008, -0/+40"Hello, I'm here to bail out my accomplice. My partner in crime, if you will. The person I have committed crimes with. Illegal crimes. Illegal crimes I have not yet been arrested for."

- metrodigg, on 12/26/2008, -0/+28Who has a brain between their balls?
- rolf, on 12/26/2008, -0/+27I heard even worse stories: one contractor was gone from his home for the day, and somebody posted his address and said everything was free. The contractor came home, only to find like 20 cars parked there: people broke into the home and started taking everything and when he started yelling at them they waved the post print-out in his face - as if it made it legal and true. People have no common sense, would they believe it enough to commit obvious breaking and entering if it were just a local flyer?
Lots of vultures out there. Disgusting. - vtbarrera, on 02/03/2009, -1/+23I've heard of similar scams all over craigslist in the greater LA area. One ad basically said that the people weren't home and that they were supposedly looking to get rid of everything in their garage and that anyone could just come by and take what they wanted on a certain day. The person who posted the ad knew the property owners were on vacation; the owners came home to see that everything was gone and there wasn't much the police were able to do about it since they never discovered who posted the ad. Sad stuff.
- TWiThead, on 12/27/2008, -0/+20I'm pondering which act is stupider: selling your landlord's belongings at a garage sale, or showing up to bail out a person charged with a crime in which you were a co-conspirator.
- lews001, on 12/27/2008, -0/+16George, Sr.: They cannot arrest a husband and wife for the same crime.
Michael: Yeah... I don't think that that's true, dad.
George, Sr.: I've got the worst *bleep* -ing attorneys. - msaleem, on 12/26/2008, -3/+17Or a really smart idea :) It all depends on if you get caught or not (side note: the only thing they were selling that did belong to them? Their morals.)
- Allegorical, on 12/26/2008, -2/+14i don't see how you couldn't get caught for selling everything in a furnished home you are renting. Some people, need to feel the process of natural selection.
- kylethompson1, on 12/26/2008, -3/+14Why would anyone want to move to Louisiana?
- DAC1138, on 12/26/2008, -2/+11Bossier city. Bahaha. I used to live there. What a ghetto.
What makes this situation even more stupid is that they moved to Bossier city, not from. - cmotdibbler, on 12/27/2008, -0/+7They should earn the money back by inviting hookers and horny high school kids .... nah, it would never work.
- jitterbits, on 12/27/2008, -0/+7They don't really have balls. Those balls belonged to their previous landlord.
- Maddoktor2, on 12/27/2008, -0/+6What's sad is that you guys admit watching that.
What's even sadder is that I know the exact scene referenced by AriaStar. *sigh* - AriaStar, on 12/27/2008, -0/+6@goombellaofgoom LOL, you know, I did the same thing. The scene when he's talking about Kuzco's poison, I think, is why.
- fant0m, on 12/26/2008, -0/+6Vampires.
- Resch17, on 12/26/2008, -3/+8A kid who lived down the street from me stole my skateboard and sold it at his garage sale. That's the same, right?
- alex7575, on 12/26/2008, -0/+5Real life Homer Simpsons
- Goombellaofgoom, on 12/27/2008, -1/+6Is it bad that I imagined that being said in the voice of Kronk from "The Emperor's New Groove"? I have no idea what it's really from.
- tendonut, on 12/27/2008, -0/+5@metrodigg
I think that's called a penis. - ansatsu29, on 12/26/2008, -0/+5Somehow, they are trying to redefine the term "garage sale". It kinda reflects a same situation here in our country - supposedly second hand car sellers are actually selling car-napped rides - you know, grand auto theft.
- addicted68098, on 12/27/2008, -0/+5Thats Mississippi for you,
- BossKey, on 12/27/2008, -0/+4The food is awesome.
But you'll gain 200 pounds, then either get shot or die in a hurricane. - Goombellaofgoom, on 12/27/2008, -0/+4No... wait for them to post a reward, then "find" the missing object(s).
- TWiThead, on 12/27/2008, -0/+4What are you asking?
- Sommerlost, on 12/26/2008, -1/+4Yeah no *****, I've grown up here, and i'm just holding my breath till I can leave.....
- icepick314, on 12/26/2008, -2/+5MANLY MEN!!
THAT'S WHO!!!
<in MANLY voice> - DAC1138, on 12/27/2008, -1/+4You have my sympathy. That's a bad, bad place. I've been all over the U.S. and Louisiana wasn't the best place to be.
- Vindexus, on 12/28/2008, -0/+2Emperor's New Groove is awesome.
- BirdCatcher, on 12/27/2008, -1/+3A really smart idea? IMO intelligence and morality go hand in hand. But that's just me, I guess.
- fabkebab, on 12/27/2008, -0/+2Natchez almost is in La
- inactive, on 12/26/2008, -1/+3garage sale hax.
- Br3ach, on 12/26/2008, -0/+2Must have been taking notes from The Shield
- ssnseawolf, on 12/26/2008, -1/+2Everything must go. Lulz, however, remained.
- Astark, on 12/27/2008, -2/+3Natchez? More like Snatchez, amiright?
- Goombellaofgoom, on 12/27/2008, -0/+1And we all know that's what most men think with.
- dragonystic, on 12/27/2008, -0/+1these people were out of ideas
- inactive, on 12/27/2008, -1/+1He came to bail her out of a unrelated traffic violation, used as bait.
- corvairkid, on 12/27/2008, -0/+0I heard about something similar in Toronto a few years back. Basically, people would place an ad for a car with a cell number and give out someone else's address. Then they'd park in front of that address, do the whole deal on the street, and take off. When the unlucky buyer went to register the car, they'd find out it was either stolen, written off and illegally repaired, or wouldn't pass a safety inspection. The cell was easily ditched and the address had nothing to do with the seller.
- sleepjelly, on 12/27/2008, -4/+2stupider?
- DirtbagDave, on 12/27/2008, -2/+0Renting out a home -$800
Renters paying you monthly +$1500
Getting your ***** sold after you evict them....priceless! - sleepjelly, on 12/27/2008, -3/+0not a bad idea unless you get caught.
- mrwoo, on 12/26/2008, -6/+2Stealing your neighbors things and selling them back is such a good business idea.
- lukedamonkey, on 12/27/2008, -6/+1Crackheads offer me stolen ***** all the time.
