That's the way the cookie bounces! (IC) 

Y'all need to lighten up! Sometime that's just the way the cookie bounces. (or substitute your favorite misplaced metaphor). If not, hopefully you threw a box of thin mints in the freezer when the girl scouts were holding their sales. Cheers!

What say you, women of Iowa City. Is $60 enough for you to be tickled by a stranger for 30 minutes? Oh wait, I'm sorry, girls of Iowa City.

Any girls want to be tickled? (30min for $60.00)

Hello there, I have a offer to propose to the girls of Craigslist: Does anybody want to be tickled for cash? What I offer is 30 minutes of me tickling you potentially anywhere--feet, sides, belly, and anywhere else you may be ticklish. At the end of the tickle session, I'll give you $60.00 USD in cash, and that's it. It's that simple. If you're interested, respond to me e-mail with "Ticklee" in the subject line so I know you're a real person. Your pic gets mine, of course. Hope to be hearing from you soon.

An Iowa City Discman calls for help

Lost: Me --- Reward:Discman (Really?) pic 

Hello, hoping someone can help me out here. I can't quite figure out where I am. I set my location as Iowa City because that's the last place I can remember being while knowing where I was. I seem to be near a tree, or at least I was a little while ago. I took a left at the tree. Yeah. I'm like 85% sure it was a left. If you think you might be near me you should be able to notice me. I'll be singing annoying songs from the 90s, as all I have with me is a discman and an Ace of Bass cd. Also I have glasses. That may help you find me, but they don't seem to be helping me much, because I can't see very well at all right now. It actually might be dark, I'm not sure.

The type of nurse you want to meet. Not the type of nurse you want to start your IV.

Smoking nurse in front of ICUglys - m4w  

We shared a smoke to get "enlightened" before I went to class. I wanted to say hi or buy you a drink when you went inside later with your friends. You were wanted to go to strip club. Anywayif you see this.

So ladies, if you see the tall one, not that tall one, the other one, nothing against that guy, but the tall one she's talking about, yeah, she's got dibs.

Java House - w4m - 22 (First Avenue)

I literally just saw, like, the HOTTEST clerk I've ever seen at a coffee shop in my life. It was really busy so I didn't have time to talk to him so I wrote my number on a piece of paper and threw it in the tip bucket. I don't know his name or if he's single or if he's even likes women, but I have to put this out there. If you Java House people share tips, you're probably confused about who the number was for. It was for the tall guy at the counter, not the one at the espresso machine. Nothing personal against him. Um....... I guess that's all I can do. I'm not even from Iowa City or I would just come in again. I visit my girlfriends about every other weekend and, um... yeah. ;)
