Anti-Machine Moron Needs Laptop
« on: January 07, 2007, 06:48:19 AM »
Found this Craigslist ad on another forum. It's already been flagged and removed from Craigslist, but was still too funny. If you're anti-machine, shouldn't you use smoke signals instead of a laptop to spread your word??? Cheesy

PS -- What's an "intentional community"Huh?

Hello. I am a homeless political advocate who, sadly, needs a laptop replaced to continue my work on spreading the message of anti-corporation, anti-profit and greed, anti-machine materialism as perpetrated by American terrorists. I am an ex-computer science student with web and network skills trying to work with and spread a message of peace amongst religious buddhists, ecologically aware vegetarians, and any and all spiritual advocates with a message of peace and anti-materialism. I work actively in bringing insight and donations to spiritual communities such as buddhist monasteries, communes, and intentional communities.

Recently, I was hassled by American police force terrorists, my laptop confiscated and its data destroyed, simply because it failed to comply with their policy of profit, materialism, and genocide.

If you have a cheap, spare laptop lying around, something near an old pentium 3 or 4 that is not being used, I would greatly appreciate the donation to continue my work. Any type of laptop at all would be of great benefit to me."

Whine, whine, whine. 

Off his meds?  If he's homeless, the machine he really needs is an apartment.
In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

Apparently not. If you go here: http://www.rightnation.us/forums/index.php?showtopic=115756
you can read responses the guy sent to someone from that forum who emailed him.

I still say they're fake.  Notice he claims to be a former math professor; just like the Unabomber was an anti-machine, anti-materialist former math professor.
