FYI not to ruin the entertainment value of the post but a magic bullet is a blender shaped like a bullet

the freecycle here in Jacksonville only has things like costumes and clothes
there was a boat yesterday, but I have noticed a lot of breast pumps on there.

i don't think the breast pump is all that wierd..they are very expensive and you use them for such a short period of time. they can be sterlized so i don't see the weirdness.

Damn, I had a feeling the magic bullet might not have been what I thought.

The breast pump request isn't too weird but come on! Showing up at some stranger's door in the afternoon to take something that once was on their boobies? It's a fantasy of WI's I'm sure but it's kinda weird to think about the meeting.

it would be weirder...for me anyway...to show up at someones door and say 'uh...hi...i'm here for the gross of clerical collars.' :rofl:

OMG, ROFLMFAO at you all!

Errrrr...I'm from Kentucky. That's "y'all." :D

I just thought those might have been for a gaggle of priests on Halloween!

Maybe the breast pump and collars are for the same people?

a posse of perverted priests perhaps?

I just got a message to my group that there is some recent controversy around the possibility the owner/developer of freecycle may be attempting to make a profit from it. http://www.businessweek.com/the_thr..._up_at_fre.html

Here's a blog too. http://blogs.businessweek.com/the_t...2.html#comments

Now there is an alternate group in my area based on this group http://freesharing.org/

They started an alternate group in my area, too. I think that was more political, though.

Today is starting out weird, too:

[FreecycleTO] wanted: gumball machine & cat clock


Im looking for 2 things right now. A gumball machine
(the bigger the better). Those retro looking ones that
are red with clear glass where the gumballs sit.
Doesnt have to have any gumballs in it.

and one of those old retro looking cat clocks. You
know, those black ones that were all over the place in
the 70s and 80s. Some of them the cats eyes move with
each second tick.

I'm looking forward to how fast she'll post a received message. :)
Thanks

Ok, so we're a bit rural.

THERE ARE 3 CHICKENS ONE POLISH CHICK ONE WHITE FRIZZLE AND ONE BIG
BEAUTIFUL ONE BUT NOT SURE WHAT KIND. THE POLISH CHICK HAS SOME LEG AND FEET ISSUES BUT THE OTHER 2 TAKE CARE OF HER SO THEY MUST STAY TOGETHER. SHE IS GETTING RID OF THEM BECAUSE THE 3 DON'T GET ALONG WITH HER CURRENT CHICKENS. THESE 3 HAVE BEEN GETTING BEATEN UP SO THEY MUST BE SEPERATED FROM THE OTHERS. HOPING THAT THEY CAN FIND A NICE HOME!!!

I say dinner is served!!!!!!!!

WI, this is a thread about weird Freecycle posts, not entries from your little black book. ;)

Not to be a pain in the butt, but a lot of handicapped folks use these toilets. I know I had to use one during my rehab time when I was unable to leave the bed

well since I'm the Moderator for the Freecycle group in my town, I get to deal with the messages that never make it to the list......like brass knuckles!
needless to say, I denied that post.

I also used to be the guy in charge of approving all new groups in my state,
until last month when i retired from that part, lol.

damng my poor memory, trying to remember some of the other ones that people were trying to offer.....

birth control pills was one....I'll have to check my old emails and see if I saved any of the other strange rejected ones.
I got myself a wheelchair off my group!!

had a couple cars posted on mine, unfortunatly I wasnt gifted with any of them as my car still doesnt run

Zing! LOL


[FreecycleTO] Wanted: less than 3' railroad track or greater than 100b anvil

I know, I know, odd request but none the less, does anyone have a chunk
of railroad track less than three feet in length and/or an anvil which
is one hundred pounds or greater? I'd be willing to pick it up if its
within 75km of Toronto
