These are always pretty funny so I think we can make it our Friday tradition.
Original ad:
looking for a ride from wilmington to manhattan next wednesday, any time during the day is good. I will pay for all of your gas as compensation.

Hello,
I am driving to NYC for a business meeting around 10 AM on Wednesday and would be able to give you a ride. Let me know if you still need one.

mike, that sounds great. where do you want to meet to pick me up? i can meet you anywhere in wilmington. also, how much do you want for gas?

Mike Anderson to Chris *******
Chris,
I shouldn’t need too much money for gas. I drive a Hummer H2 with a swapped motor, so gas really isn’t a problem. It gets about 4 MPG highway and only takes premium, so I’d say about $100 should cover it.

From Chris ******* to Me
what do you mean gas isnt a problem? 4 mpg is ridiculous. I was expecting to pay like 20 or 30 bucks tops! sorry but I’ll have to pass
Mike Anderson to Chris ********
If you only want to pay 30 bucks, that can get you as far as Exit 7 on the Jersey Turnpike. I can drop you off there, and you can hitchhike the rest of the way. I’m pretty sure hitchhiking is still legal in NJ so it shouldn’t be a problem for you. I can pick you up on Naaman’s Road in Wilmington by the Target shopping center around 9:30.
From Chris ******* to Me
are you serious? no I dont want to be dropped off in the middle of the turnpike. forget it
Mike Anderson to Chris ********
Okay, I can give you a ride to Manhattan for $30, but in return, we need to stop at this guy’s house in New Brunswick to get some money that he owes me. He’s been dodging my calls, so he probably won’t be too willing to give the money when we show up at his house. I need you to stand there and look intimidating so he realizes we mean business. How big are you? You should be at least 5’11 and 200 lbs. You can bring a big friend if you are scrawny, but you should ask him to throw up some gas money too.
From Chris ******* to Me
what the fuck is wrong with you? you sound like a drug dealer. i dont want to ride to manhattan with you
Mike Anderson to Chris ********
Chris, I’m sorry that you have turned down my ride. I think you should change your ad on ********** to avoid any further confusion. I re-wrote it for you so all you have to do is click “edit” and then paste this where the original ad is:
“scrawny man, not capable of intimidating people, looking for a ride from wilmington to new york. not willing to be reasonable in compensation for gas. will most likely complain about stupid stuff the whole ride up”
From Chris ******* to Me
fuck off asshole
