Craigslist Flake

a craigslist buyer who responds to a craigslist post numerous times asking if the item for sale is "still available", then not responding once they learn "it is available". 2) a craigslist buyer who asks for the sellers home address, then once receiving the information does not respond, nor show up for the appointment.
The burglary victim suspected a Craigslist Flake committed the crime, and gave a list of email addresses to the police.

craigslist job

Simply put, a job that nobody wants. This job could be anything from a bathroom attendant to the camera mans assistant at a shotgun wedding. There is no formal hiring process and the pay is anything but competitive.
*At Shotgun Wedding*
Cam: Do you see that camera mans assistant in the corner drinking free booze? I want that job.

Nate: Nah bro, that’s a Craigslist job.

Craigslist Penis Effect

Personal success philosophy based on the observations that

a) any g-rated women-seeking-men Craigslist ad will be met with dozens and dozens of e-mails that are just penis pics, and

b) a "real" email will automatically be better received than the penises.

The wisdom of observation is that a little effort will automatically put you ahead of all the idiots. From personal finance blogger Ramit Sethi.
According to the Craigslist Penis Effect, wearing khakis, not sweatpants, to the fleamarket will make you super stylish by comparison.

craigslist

A terrific community website that started in San Francisco California and is run by a programmer named Craig Newmark. On Craigslist you can find a place to live, sell your car, find a job, rant & rave, find love, or just get laid. Craig has since set up sites for several major cities across the USA and a few major cities around the world.
She arrived in San Francisco, found an apartment on Craigslist, sold her car on Craigslist, found Mr. Right Now a few times on Casual Enconters, and then found love, all on Craigslist.
