Have you ever looked at Craigslist Casual Encounters?
Don’t lie.
It’s ok – everyone gets curious to see what and who is out there. Someone who wants you to wear a diaper? Check. Someone who likes big ladies? Check.
Some of us may have even found ourselves lonely on a Saturday night when everyone else was out and figured someone else out there in Craigslist land was lonely too. Just me? Ok…
Anyways, everyone who has perused the Casual Encounters knows there is one thing you can be sure of: lots and lots of peen. On the bed, on the chair, in front of the bathroom mirror; peen, peen, peen. The guys over at Funny or Die know it, and they created this video to show what goes on behind the scenes. I would post it here, but it’s just… wrong. Hilarious, but wrong. Check it out.

Usually, we try to have some kind of theme to our Wednesday Night series, but when we went digging through the Casual Encounters this week, we spent so much time being supremely grossed out that it was all we could do to keep ourselves from falling on the floor and pouring printer ink into our eyes. I mean, there was some gross sh*t on the internet this week. For realz.
Below are just a bunch of people we really hope we never meet. Read More »

I know that we’re totally Olympic-ed out over here at CC, but I wanted to draw your attention to a story that would surely win the gold in the Embarrassment and I-Am-F*cked-For-Life events: ‘Craiglist Encounter Lands Couple in Jail‘
What happened with this little encounter that caused it to score such high points? Well, apparently, a homeless lady in Oregon City, OR was trying to innocently “pitch a tent” (who uses that saying with a straight face anymore?) when she came across what she thought was a rape in progress (a man looked to be “sexually assaulting a bound and naked woman”). The homeless lady got the cops involved, they came to save the victim, but ended up doing nothing more than breaking up a consensual fantasy that was being acted out by two people who had met over Craigslist.
Upon seeing the law approaching, the man and the woman fled (I always thought it would be hard to flee when one is bound and gagged, but whatev), and once they were caught, explained to the cops that the reason they ran is because the dude involved in the awkward public rape fantasy…was married.
I give his wife a 9.9 for picking such a fine specimen of the male race.

We’ve talked about Craigslist countless times before. It’s glorious and hilarious and you can buy chairs or sell your cat. However, after a little chat with our hormonal Coed office buddies, we realized that there was an untapped ocean of entertainment on CL known as Casual Encounters. We knew all about Missed Connections (and may have looked to see, from time to time, if anyone had MC’ed us…which they never did), but had always assumed that the Casual Encounters section of Cragislist was full of skeevy people and penis pics.
So yeah, it’s full of skeevy people and ‘peen pics, but it’s also full of the strange and the weird and the desperate. How entertaining!
PS: We changed the titles and photos to fit our liking (and keep nasty ‘peen pics off our site). It’s better this way. Trust us. Read More »

Have you ever said, “I just want to date for fun without getting into anything serious” or “Gosh, I haven’t gotten any action in a while”? If so, I think I have the perfect website for you. With OnlineBootyCall.com, you can actively participate in online “dating” without all that pesky dating and commitment stuff.
Known as a “dating site for singles who enjoy being single,” OnlineBootyCall.com promises to help you find the “pieces without the puzzle.” Thank God, because I’m always complaining that I just want a whole pile of mismatched puzzle pieces without actually being able to put them together.
The website is free to use and promises that nobody will contact you unless you accept a booty call invitation. They just ask that you follow their booty call commandments listed at their site. You know, stuff like: “though shalt get out before the sun rises,” and “though shalt kiss anything except my mouth” and of course, “There shall be no cuddling–ever!” I wasn’t aware that booty calls always had to be so, um, impersonal.
I realize it can be difficult to find your soul mate, and that’s why so many people turn to online dating. But really, people, is it that hard to find a booty call? I could just go to the bar down the street if I was looking for a little action, no strings attached. And if that was too much work, I could easily turn to the “casual encounters” section of Cragslist. Read More »

Ah, Craigslist. I have used you to find an apartment, multiple jobs, a free chair, babysitting clients, and even acting gigs. You’re my portal to the world. A best friend who has the answer to everything. Even sexual frustration.
The Casual Encounters section on Craigslist is exactly what it seems like it would be; a place for horny people to post messages explaining their horniness. The messages range from the semi-innocent:
“Good looking white corporate exec looking to find an attractive woman for daytime trysts…let’s take the time to get to know one another…I’m open minded about age and race….tell me something about yourself and perhaps we can chat…Have a great day…”
To the completely blunt: Read More »
