I was in line ordering my Thanksgiving pumpkin pies. I’m a worrier and I always get my pumpkin pies early. I noticed you looking at the lemon merrange. You asked me what my favorite pie was and I said pumpkin. You said pumpkin is gross. Even though we don’t like the same kind of pies, I couldn’t help but wonder what other types of baked confections we could make together.
What shoe size am I?

And then sometimes you find a missed connection that so perfectly fits with your interests (pie!) as well as the archetypical craigslist missed connection structure (asks a totally random identifying question, vaguely lewd) that you wonder if someone wrote this SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU TO FIND.
I am looking for a expecting mom or already mom.
I am pregnant with my first child.
I am around 5 months, I am not 100% sure I am pregnant, but I do have 3 positive tests with faint lines. I am looking for a mom or expecting mom to talk to about what we are both experiencing or what you experienced and what I am, and how we can compare, I am looking for a lifetime friend, I have one friend, I adore her, she’s like my sister, we could both use a friend, but I would really like to make some new friends. If your real and looking for a real friend, who needs support and can support you too.

Expecting Moms and Already Mom’s I am looking for a Lifelong Friend - w4w
Sometimes I am like “Hey, Quinn, maybe you should do something productive instead of combing through the strictly platonic section of craigslist for weird shit” and then I come to my senses. Because there are people there who think they might be five months pregnant but still aren’t totally sure yet.
Single normal healthy males here for a normal sane girl who is willing to rent me a bedroom for the night. If you live by yourself and have an extra bedroom, or even a living room, that’s what I need. I need to meet a girl and we need a place. A hotel is too expensive for us. Please help, we will pay you. Thanks.

Seriously I love cleveland roommate ads. ‘No Pets’ was clearly not emotive enough.

It seems like everyone on craigslist looking for roommates (btw this is my latest favorite section to read for entertainment) identifies as some sort of ‘professional’. I am not really sure what professional means and/or if it means anything at all. I’m wavering between thinking it means “i have a full time job” or if it is some sort of symbolic class reference.
Ever have one of those moments on the subway—after what turned out to be a bitch of a girlfriend dumped you for some seagull that never stops bragging about his trash pile on Coney Island—where you look up from the soggy lip of the crumpled brown bag concealing your bottle of triple sec and see the most beautiful, supple-necked goose you’ve ever seen, with sparkling obsidian eyes and chest plumage so triumphantly gray that it promises the thunderstorms of the next thousand years, and for some unfathomable reason she is staring not at the lime-flavored drool escaping your beak, not at the bald patch in your left wing that can’t be combed over anymore these days, not at where your ballooning gut touches your cracked foot-webbing, but looks into your very soul for a full soft radiant world of time before the train stops at West 4th street and she hops off, leaving you forever with that untarnished aura of love and longing that melts into the vague memory of what it means to be happy?
“Well fuck that,” I said. ”I’m putting a Missed Connection ad on Craigslist.
‘Responding to a bunch of Craigslist Missed Connections ads with “That’s my girl, asshole” then posting the responses on your blog is one of the simplest, yet most genius comedic ideas ever.’
