Yet another craigslist ad that made me laugh:

Craigslist Ad (external link)

You used to see photographers posting ads like this, so now people think it's normal.

If you don't want to click it, here's the text of the ad:

I know its short notice, but I am looking for a photographer to take our family portraits tomorrow, Friday 9/30 around 5-5:30 in Indianapolis. We will sign a release to use the portraits in your business. I do understand photography requires a lot of work, but I am only looking for you to take them and then put them on a cd, with all rights. I dont need any editing done. I am only looking to spend $30 . If interested please contact me asap! Also if interested pleased please email me and give me info and a number to contact you at! Thanks! ;)

show up with a point and shoot and a $5 card shoot for 1/2 hour and then head to lunch with the profit

Not even a 1/2 hour. 5 minutes with a disposable camera... People like that make me sick.

Looks like they're in the market for a middle schooler... except they can't drive to the shoot!

Waaaiiittt...you're a duck, aren't you? Flight costs you nothing! Cheat!!!
However, $30 get's a lot of bread crumbs, so I can't blame you.

A good friend will help you move.
A true friend will help you move a body.
An old friend more than likely will pass on either because of a bad back.
