Craigslist will NEVER cease to amaze me!!!

I had an absolute laughing fit earlier. My movie nerd friend Paulie Walnuts just finished emailing me with a response he received for a movie screening posting he inquired about. Paulie is the worst kind of movie-goer that exists. He goes to all sorts of obscure events that he hears about online in hopes of seeing newly released films.
The tile of the original CL posting title stated: "Test Screening Audience Wanted - send your contact info." So he replied with his name and email in hopes of getting hooked up with some sort of secret red carpet Hollywood Beowulf premiere.
This was the response back (mind you, almost immediately):

SERIOUSLY? IN YOUR APARTMENT? SERIOUSLY?
Who does this? What type of person puts out invites like this in a public forum for any nook and cranny out there, then welcomes them with snacks and beanbag chairs??? I also viewed the movie link he’s posted… some pretty bloody sick shit.


Maybe that’s how he got the victims... err, actors, for the new flick?
