Never seen "make your b/o" before, I figured it out quickly but was amused at "give me $30 or some body odor"

My dad was trying to get rid of this ugly TV cabinet thing so he put it out on his driveway with a sign that said "free." It sat there for days until I suggested putting up a sign that said "$20 or best offer." It was gone the next day. People are weird, they would rather steal something than get it for free, I guess. On the topic of Craigslist, over the summer I went to a guy's house to pick up a desk chair he was selling for $30. It's a really nice chair and I'm glad I got it, but he was apparently moving and selling lots of stuff because he got divorced, and in the five minutes it took to look at the chair and give him the money and take the chair to my car, he did nothing but talk about how his ex-wife scammed him out of everything and women will suck you dry like leeches, etc. I'm a woman, and he was mainly addressing this to my boyfriend who was with me. Awkward. DorkusMalorkus has a new favorite as of 21:19 on Jan 25, 2017 |

You got a good deal on his chair because he was in a desperate situation and had to move out sounds like he was right

Did you ask him when he was going to start sucking dick, then? No women and he could start sucking people dry instead.

It sat there for days until I suggested putting up a sign that said "$20 or best offer." It was gone the next day. People are weird, they would rather steal something than get it for free, I guess. "Free" implies that the owner is trying to get rid of it so obviously something must be wrong with it, "$20 or less" implies the item is still worth having but cheap enough to not be missed if taken. It's the same counterintuitive logic that goes with higher price = higher demand; people feel like they are getting a luxury item at a higher price and are more likely to buy it than the same quality but lower priced item that's seen as somehow inferior (see: brand-name soda vs dollar-store soda). The better the deal the less likely people are to trust it, "it's too good to be true!" etc so you have to work harder to convince people they should take the opportunity. I used to work in sales. Sales psychology is weird. It's that sort of weird logical-irrationality that plagues other business fields like the stock market. Teriyaki Koinku has a new favorite as of 01:24 on Feb 6, 2017 |

That thing is probably worth thousands in South Africa. edit: In fact: http://www.aaawt.com/html/banks_gallery1.html Might not be a bad buy there just to resell it.

I remember seeing one of those at an antique store when I was like 7, 8 years old, except it was a man and wearing minstrel clothes. I didn't know it was a racist thing and played with it for a long time, no one stopped me. I just thought it was cool, I loved mechanical old toys like that  e: they are called a "Jolly N***** Bank" if you are interested in further research on racist novelty items

I have met Black people who collected racist tchotchkes like that.  Not people I was close enough to to ask about their rationale for doing it, though.

I've known two seperate black dudes who collect confederate flag themed kitsch and wear shirts with it on them in public. Both of them just like the flag design and hate liberals though. Introducing them to each other was weird as all gently caress

My experience with grandmas is that they like what they like and are far beyond giving a poo poo about what anyone thinks about it. My grandma, when she was dying in the hospital, told my mother to look under her (my grandma's) bed, and bring her the "hot, sexy books" she had stashed there.
