Want Ad #2

Here's my second want ad from work. Look, I know I'm not exactly Mark Twain or Will Rogers -- but remember, my usual audience works with insurance all day. So these are absolute gems of hilarity and creativity in comparison!

FYI, the yellow dresser is spoken for, but not paid for or picked up yet. And the white dresser is still available. So if anyone actually wants either of these, that would be okay too.

Two all-wood dressers (plus observations about IKEA)
 I have two really solid, well-made dressers for sale - $45 each. They would be great for kids - they survived my childhood. They're in better shape than me, to be perfectly honest. Don't worry, I'm fine. But I really wanted that pony.

They might need painting, but they are WAAAAY better than what you can buy at IKEA. Even though IKEA is really fun to look at. And their stuff looks cool!

Speaking of IKEA, I've been there twice, and both times the ball pit was being cleaned by a couple poor employees wearing rubber gloves. To quote Karen Hanson, "Eeeewww". Also have you ever noticed that everything IKEA sells has some weird name that's unpronounceable? Like "Blrghh" or "Dgstrppp" or "Kvk"? I guess to order something you just point at it. Because no one wants to say "I'll take two Blggstrps and a Wzsllyt," right? probably cuts down on phone orders, too.

Anyhow, these dressers are both all wood (okay, maybe the white one has a particle board back), but they are really solid. The only thing is, they won't fit in my Mazda 3 (I barely fit!!), so the buyer has to pick them up from my place. But they are an excellent bargain. If I must say so myself.
