Facebook Marketplace (don't read this)

Post by _Jersey Girl »

This is really one of those smh posts. Don't read it, really. I'm just doing this for myself.

Okay so I am selling some stuff on Facebook MP to see if I can sell them before donating them altogether. Right?

One thing is a cardboard flat of candles in jars. You know like Yankee Candles only they aren't. I've switched to all LED candles so why not sell the ones I had stocked up on right?

So. . . this woman messages me to ask if I would mind donating the candles to her because money is tight because she's been diagnosed with heart failure and she's on . . . OXYGEN.

I'm not joking. She's on oxygen and she wants to burn free candles in the house.

Like how do these people even find me, right?

Dear Potential Candle Lady,

No. If I were to donate my candles to you to burn in your house while you are on oxygen I could be implicated in your impending explosive fiery death.

Thanks for asking,

Not your accomplice

May I have them? I could use these to work after dark in my homemade gasoline distillery and gunpowder processing facility.

Now I have some guy with a profile picture of an MJ leave for his profile pic. Hey I'm down with that. Gotta cover up that smell!

:lol:

Seriously, I have multiple ads up and all anyone wants is the silly candles.

When I'm freebasing in my Meth lab, I like a mellow vibe, so candles would be ideal.

I suspect they’d help me see better through all of the dusty air in my grain silo.

I once had a patient in an assisted living facility that smoked with his oxygen still running. One day he burned most the hair and beard off his head. Did that stop him from continuing to smoke with the oxygen on?

No, of course not.

One thing I've learned as a nurse is that there are a lot of people that insist on doing things they shouldn't while refusing to do the things they should.

Then they blame the medical team for their lack of progress...
