So what? Some have had fun with the thread and that I can respect and laugh at. For the rest of you all - get a life. Geesh.

Frankly I just thought it was kinda fun. Perfectly normal every day kinda guy came to my house to buy some leathers I was selling. It was interesting to me that his life and career is a little different from the rest of us who, let's face it, are a bunch of mostly white collar desk jockies.
Was he a 1%er? Because that is a whole new thread! Now we have something to talk about for the 1000th time.

I believe, (just thinking out loud) the delivery of your first post on this thread was the start of the whole problem. It was cryptic. Just paint the picture selling an item on craigslist, guy answered the ad, showed up, find out his is in a well known band. Go figure. Never thought in a million years it would happen. It is not....surreal.


Main Entry: surˇreˇal
Pronunciation: \sə-ˈrē(-ə)l also -ˈrā-əl\
Function: adjective
Etymology: back-formation from surrealism
Date: 1937
1 : marked by the intense irrational reality of a dream; also : unbelievable, fantastic <surreal sums of money>
2 : surrealistic

The guy puts his pants on like everyone else. It is just your used pants now. As far as white collar desk jockey.....this desk jockey is not buying a used pair of clothing from anyone. Talk about disgusting. All those, as the Brits would say, bottom burps in those things......F'ing disgusting.

Yawn. I think I'll go back to posting about cams and ****. No point stirring up such vitriol. Must conform to HDForum stereotype biker profile. All others will be vilified.

Yeh well when you put it that way it is kinda funny. Actually I'm really laughing along on this one. Didn't look up vitriol in the dictionary . . . but you have to admit there are a handful (just a handful) of folk on this board that do come on a little strong - maybe about 3 responses in this thread perhaps . . . We all know who they are@! Besides - you gotta have something to laugh about right now right?

Tell you what tho' - almost "saved" enough to buy a new Langlitz jacket through all this Craigslist sales stuff. If the weather's good enough tomorrow I'm riding to Portland OR to get measured for one. (just need $1100).
