I thought this was too funny not to share. I didn't want to spam the main forum or for-sale forum, but it certainly jives with the general sentiment that F***book is a cesspool and possibly the literal worst classifieds ever created. Anyway, did you ever want to drop 2k on a car that was actually on fire?

I'm telling you guys, investment opportunity is knocking. We create a for sale website marketplace. That is free. And you rid it of shiny happy people by only allowing people to post one item at a time. Once that item is sold or they remove it, they can list another item. That keeps the spammers, the businesses, the Chinese, and the flakes from ruining the experience.

Plus you make it so everyone Has to use their real, full name that is connected to the credit card on the account. But again, the account is free. Once it becomes big, you sell it off to Google for a wad of cash and walk away from it.

So I'm not the only one who read that differently. But I clicked anyway because either way the content was going to be fun.

It wasn't what I expected, but I'm still not surprised.

I didn't realize Michael was selling a BMW.  My guess is he was asking $6k and someone offered him $2k so... 

He lit it on fire and said, "okay, here's your $2k BMW!". Even went so far as to take pictures and make a FB posting.
