Great Craigslist Ad

“Nemesis required. 6-month project with possibility to extend

I’ve been trying to think of ways to spice up my life. I’m 35 years old, happily married with two kids and I have a good job in insurance. But somethings missing…I need a challenge, something to get the adrenaline pumping again. An addiction would be nice, but, in short, I need a nemesis. I’m willing to pay $1000 up front for you services as an arch enemy over the next six months. Nothing crazy. Steal my parking space, knock my coffee over, trip me when Im running to catch the Trolley or a cab and occasionally whisper in my ear, “Ahha, we meet again”…Just keep me on my toes. Complacency will be the death of me…Evil sinister laugh preferred…British accent preferred. Thirst for Evil Required.”

    Assuming that this is a serious ad, and being a nasty, suspicious person, I wonder if the one hiring the nemesis will be giving an alias and sending the duped hired stalker & harasser after someone else…. Hmm, there could be a storyline in that.

    That is a great thought. Perhaps it’s even the wife herself who wants more attention and wants someone to keep tabs on her husband.

    I’ve been providing nemesis services for free for so long, I’m glad there’s finally an market opening up.

    Unbelievably sad methinks… if it’s a real ad.. and it’s been removed or “flagged for removal” from craig’s list.

    I know it’s been flagged a while ago.
