No Jew For You

So I opted out of Kosher in favor of this guy:

“Cereal IS awesome. I lean towards Sugar Bear and his delicious Golden crisp but sometimes I like to get crazy and hang with Cap’n Crunch. meh, depends on my mood that day. Definitely would be interested in hitting up JuJu, I live a few blocks away and haven’t been there yet so i’m pretty interested in how post modern design and old school nourishment fit together. Native east coaster, so the things on my feet are Sneakers, I call carbonated beverages ‘Pop’ and I take my humor dark and sarcastic. Recently moved here a couple months ago for a position at UCLA, saw your post and thought i’d drop a line, just looking to network and meet some new and different people here. Chill, laid back, yada yada…

Attached a pic, should give you the general idea of me in all scenarios of life – stoner style at a Phish show, some wedding, and working for The Man. Drop a line if you’re down for some cereal!”

“You sound like a good guy to eat cereal with. I also hail from the east but years of travel beat the ‘pop’ out of me and I have since adopted ‘soda’ as my own. If you think you can handle that, how does 2:00pm tomorrow sound? I find daring cereal combinations to be especially enjoyable around 2:00pm. I don’t have a picture on my computer that I can send, but I’m 5’5, athletic, long brown hair, dazzling smile. :)”

“Good to hear from you, i’m ver sorry to hear the west coast won the pop vs soda war, we’re a dying breed…No pics? Any flicker, MySpace, or a camera phone? Are you sending this from an Apple IIe powered by a hamster wheel as well? ;-) Just teasing – this is craigslist so forgive me I tend to be cautious and skeptical, one can never be too safe.”

“Well I usually keep a picture at the ready for such situations (you know, asking guys to meet me for cereal on Craigslist…) but seemed to have misplaced it in a fit of organization. But I understand your skepticism so I did a little searching this morning and found it in the aptly names ‘My Pictures’ folder. (Huh, who would’ve thought?) Anyways, a little more about myself…(insert a few scintillating personal details here)

Don’t want to give away too much, as we’ll theoretically need something to talk about in person. You up for it?”

“Thanks for your message, yeah that helps a lot. I’ve bounced around the US a lot and craigslist has been great for almost every city – get my furniture, apartments, meet people etc… The people are always 99% cool. So yeah, let’s get some cereal @ 2pm, that menu looks out of control. Lucky charms, malt balls and maple syrup…damn, that’s hardcore.”

That it is, little one, that it is. I guess we’ll see if you can handle it. At 2pm.

If you ever used the term "soda" with me, I'd punch you in the face.
