The Craigslist Ad That Started It All

Here it is, folks.  My #1 favorite ad so far.  This is why I started "RottenEggsList." I've been sitting on it, waiting to blog about it until the time was right.  Today is that day.  Without further ado:

FREE Compost Bin with Compost Inside (Beaverton)



I'm moving, and I thought my landlord wanted me to leave this for the next tenants, but he doesn't so I need this gone ASAP!

Homemade compost bin, about 2/3 full. The stuff on the bottom is probably about ready to use.

You haul.

You see, I'm moving.

Actually, my landlord never said anything about this compost bin, but I had a feeling, a strong feeling, that I was excused from any responsibility about crap I leave lying around.

And I don't like my landlord, so I'll include a reference about him in a public place like Craigslist because it's really his responsibility to do something about this crap but I'll go out of my way to try and remove it (take a couple of pictures and put a well-thought-out ad on Craigslist).

I'm the kind of person that cares about the next tenants that will occupy this space, and I like surprises, so I thought I could surprise them with this homemade compost bin that is about 2/3 full with the stuff on the bottom that is probably about ready to use.

"Homemade" - All the neglected crap in my yard is actually a series of projects I'm working on. All my hardest work is all-natural and a gift to future generations.

When I say 2/3 full, I mean that there is barely anything in it, but the air is part of the composting process so it's 2/3 + full.

I'm not going to lift a finger to haul this anywhere for you. Not even to the driveway out front. I mean, c'mon, you should be grateful that this is FREE.

Now that I've posted this ad, I am done here. I "tried to get rid of it." I don't plan to follow up with people who try to contact me. They should just know where it is. Screw the landlord.
