Meet Craigslist, The New Hemingway

Hemingway famously wrote a six word story: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." And Craigslist has provided a current version. It's a bit wordier (and comes with photos!), but I feel it contains the same sense of tragedy.

Text: "This album has a lovely detailed plush heart on the front. I was going to use it for wedding scrapbookking[sic] but never did."

Or... maybe this woman had five other wedding scrapbooks she filled instead. We will never know!

How about: "For sale: iPhone 3, apps for avoiding obsolescence not included."

See, that's not as funny for those of us still using their crappy-ass Samsung phones, ahem ahem.
