My friend carl, who you might know as the guy who sleeps in front of my desk, is looking for a roommate and posted this ad on craigslist. See below for an actual response he got and his interactions with her:

Craigslist posting http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/roo/2797080065.html
2 bedroom apt. Bedroom for rent is 12 x 12 with a closet (9’ H x 5’ 7w x 1’9 D) and a window. It’s on the 1st floor and there is a laundry room down the hall. Bills are $60 a month at the most. No pets, no smoking. I’m quiet, rarely have people over and I’m usually in my room writing or watching movies. I have 2 bodies in the freezer and listen to music on headphones. I’m male.

Re:
Hi- I’m interested in seeing the room you have for rent—-
26/f writer. Also- Grad student at Brooklyn college (elementary education). Neat, keep to myself. Gone most weekends (have a boyfriend a few stops away). Have a slew of succulents and cacti that need space - actually prob just the jade tree would need to be in the “common” area. No pets… Looking for feb 1st move in date. Don’t mind the bodies in the freezer as long as there’s room for one pint of coconut sorbet.
Are you showing soon? I’m around tonight or Monday.

Thanks!
Rebecca

Me Re:Re:
Hi Rebecca how about Monday? Anytime Sat or Sunday would be fine too. Bill and Katey LOVE sorbet.

Her Re:Re:Re:
Monday sounds good- hows mid afternoon?

Me Re:Re:Re:Re:

Her Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:
See you then-
Thanks!

Her Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:
Hi Carl-
Think I found a living situation - thanks for getting back to me quickly. Good luck on finding a roommate!

Me Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:
Ok well I guess I should return the tuxedo. I’ll be sitting in the edge of my bed staring out the window all night, smiling of course but devastated. Have a nice life!
