    Women selling positive pregnancy tests on Craigslist

    Gross.

    http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/04/showbi...end/index.html

    (Sept. 4, 2013) They say you can buy everything on the Internet.

    The latest, uh, must-have appears to be positive pregnancy test results.

    Women across the country are selling -- and buying -- them on Craigslist.

    One post from Buffalo, New York, sums up the appeal for potential shoppers:

    "Wanna get your boyfriend to finally pop the question? Play a trick on Mom, Dad or one of your friends? I really don?t care what you use it for."

    That particular test was going for the reasonable rate of $25 dollars. The tests in Texas seem to be slightly more expensive, at $30 a pop.

    CNN responded to several ads across the country asking for comment, but received no response.

    Then again, the sellers probably weren't expecting to have to explain the sale of what basically amounts to a urine sample to a reporter.

    "Need a positive pregnancy test? Serious inquiries only!" said one Atlanta ad, begging the question, how many false leads could one person possibly be getting for this offer?

    Another ad reassures buyers conscious of name brands, "This will NOT be a dollar store test. Will be either Clearblue First Response or EPT."

    Most ads found by CNN ended the same way, with sellers assuring potential customers "It isn't my business what you choose to use it for."

    Or maybe you just really don't want to know.

    This was in Weird & Bizarre, no? I don't think it had its own thread though.

    Right!?! Cops finally find her body, I'm in custody, and it's like "Coroner says she wasn't actually pregnant! Gotcha!"

    And we all have a good laugh.

    Maybe? I definitely read it somewhere.



    & DyO - whaddya mean "joke"? There'll be people setting up years of financial support with these. Weddings & all varieties of deceitful, life-changing scammery will far outweigh the practical jokers. You're just not being cynical enough (yet).



    & I like how the resident blokes appear to be the first members to rush to this thread. We h1ad a thread with male responses only - then I had to go & ruin it by posting too ...



    ETA nope, NancyDrew beat me to the ruining. Yay - not responsible.

    Also, yeah, this is totally how the process of babies being cut out of wombs starts.

    Sceptic, atheist, science freak that I am, if I ever joked about something like that I'd instantly fear being struck barren as punishment. (stupid over-active conscience - it ruins a lot of good jokes)

    Haha I loved that mouse. I'm working really hard at avoiding turning this report in because it's going to get ripped apart and I'm not in the mood.

    Well, I was going to weigh the two scenarios out and decide which was worse.

    Us:


    lol, you have no idea how apt that clutzy cat is. You are speaking to the only University of New England student to ever receive the "Bean Award For Archaeological Incompetence".

    (Long story but the short version is- I single-handedly destroyed 3 dig walls - on 3 seperate pits, in less than a second! Luckily they were only demo's. I'm sure I could've caused far more destruction if they were real & I was making a serious effort to be careful & competent - I do my best inept, destructive comedy work when I'm trying to behave like an intelligent, co-ordinated adult.)




    Sorry about the multi-quote fail guys but it just won't recognise the "ticks" on this tablet - won't let me use smilies either, it flips me t the useless mobile site if I try : (


    (so sorry about the shite smilies too)
