Even if just for its entertainment value (he wears t-shirts... sometimes?). I have a yahoo pipe feeding my google reader with W4M posts. I do.

Above all things including family, money, women, career...a missed connection says, "Hey, I've made it." We can all dream that maybe one day someone will see us outside of Panera and think that we're cute enough to merit a posting.... one day.... getting a missed connection is validation in life.

But, from what I hear about CL... 1. If you're looking for someone, there's a lot of fake posts on Craigslist, just looking to scoop up email addresses of people who respond in order to bombard you with crap email. If there's a picture that looks like a 18yo model and she's looking for a short balding middle age man, it's probably fake. 2. If you're a woman posting to find a man, be ready to be sent tons of penis pictures to somehow convince you to pick him? 3. Don't post a picture of yourself if you don't want everyone you know/work with you're desperately trolling CL for a date. 4. Exchange pictures before you go. No matter how we may want to deny it, looks are important to just about everyone, and there's no point wasting time meeting only to find out that one of you finds the other hideous.

While both responses could apply to either sex it seemed that Susan's advise was tailored more for a man, while Jack's is aimed toward a woman. Was the question from a man or a woman?
