I've never seen an ad so bad as that, but if a seller replied to me in a text or email with such gibberish I would instantly walk away. In my view anybody that slapdash and careless with written language will probably be just as cavalier about servicing and caring for the car.

Do I need a car from some kid who'll put nothing into the car except alpha male accessories and gasoline?


Nah! Don't think so.
Quite literally there are members of the US who have become so inept to acceptable grammar in their speech patterns it has become OK to type phonetically... I personally think this should be illegal as we are all dumber for having read it and befuddled for trying to understand it...

Im with Tom on this one for sure. Let's blame Obama.

I can't wait to see a response. Can you imagine if someone with such sloppy grammar tried to post on here? They would run away crying.

Of course. New Jersey is the state of diversity. Switch over to the 609 area code and you get the fist pumpers :P

No No No... 609 is where the fist pumpers go... If I find a fist pumper with a 609 area code I will do some fist punching

No response as yet. I would like to say it's because this person is probably too dim-witted to check e-mail, but unfortunately I've found that most people act retarded by choice, no because they are, in fact, hopelessly incompetent.

You probably started a gang war with your "proper grammar"

Question: ....................

I actually read and understood all that.

Does that make me ghetto or obsessive compulsive?

Re: FYA: Craigslist Hijinx

Yeah, I am sure the state of the union tonight was quite the spectacle... in the "House of Representin'", with Gamacho-bama.

I think I'd rather watch a movie and wonder who's ass was farting, and why...

And, yes. I like money.
