Want Ads Can be Fun

Okay, so I'm reading through the Saturday paper. I don't subscribe to the paper, but I got one today which is a bonus point for the day right? Being unemployed, I'm skimming through the want ads and come across this ad. Turns out this ad was another bonus point for the day...

"Single white male looking for female companion/ personal assistant with some domestic duties. If interested send picture and resume to... "


Ya know, there is soooo much wrong with this post that I'm at a loss for where to begin!! Okay, what does a companion/ personal assistant mean? You want a secretary with which you can have sex but no fear of sexual harassment charges later down the road? Or is it just this knuckle-dragger's way of saying I want a girlfriend or wife who does everything for me because I'm completely worthless?

Then... throw in the "domestic duties" and this can take a whole new direction. If there had been no mention of a companion and I simply read domestic duties, I would think dusting, mopping, laundry - ya know chores around the house that men usually aren't qualified to even attempt. But a companion? That makes me think, "um what exactly does he want dusted?" LMBO!!

Of course what truly frightens me about this "wonderfully romantic" (dripping with sarcasm of course) story is the part I will never know... WHAT KIND OF WOMAN WOULD ANSWER THIS AD???
