"Is this guy for real?"

I posted something on the "free stuff" section of craigslist, and this guy, I won't give his whole email address but it has "skillz" in it, writes:

"o ok neva mind den thanks anywayz"

Which was after:

"Wil this fit a queend size funton mattress and where is is riped and how badd is it riped and can it still close up properkly on the mattress."

As a frequent Craigslist-free-stuff-giver-awayer, I never give my email address.  I usually put the junk outside and provide directions on how to get it.  Once I see it's gone, I take down the ad.

Once I got some people to take away a huge pile of rotten mulch.  That was great.  Another time I had all these bricks.  This one couple drove like 90 mph from the next town over to pick up these precious bricks within 15 minutes of my posting the ad.

I think that's the way to go, yesno. I wanted to donate everything to the Salvation Army but they only come around here once a month (and they just came). I guess I'll just put everything out and put up a curb alert. It's just so satisfying to find people who could actually use your stuff.

Yeah... Salvation Army is pretty picky about the furniture they'll take.

Yeah apparently metal is against their "code." Cannot fathom why. If anything I would think wood would be because it could have bedbugs or something.
