I thought this was pretty funny.

From http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/pho/1239135682.html:

Date: 2009-06-25, 12:36PM EDT

One gently-used caucasian male. 36 years-old. Slightly defective. Remembers the names of Ken Rockwell's kids but not our own. Constantly buying high-end photo gear then selling it on craigslist the second Canon or Nikon releases something new. Complains endlessly about lowballers, tire-kickers and pixel peepers. Sold car to buy a Leica body and now wants to mortage house to buy lenses, all at Ken Rockwell's insistence. Maybe you can reprogram him. I have no time because I have to cart our kids around on the TTC and work two jobs while while he fiddles with film and DSLR to achieve super-saturated highlights.

Reasonable offers accepted: Food, clothing, 1992 Subaru Justy. Offers of photo equipment will promptly be deleted! Lowball kickers are welcome! A swift one in the nuts will do him some good.

I googled the 1992 Subaru Justy. 5 minutes later, still laughing. I'd suspect my wife for posting, but remembered she doesn't pay any attention to anything I say or do.

Reading and taking note of Rockwell is grounds for a divorce without spending money on kit!

I'd suspect my husband, but it's obviously a man whose wife is ticked off.
Besides, I'm the one who brings home the bacon and he's the one who cooks it!

Hilarious! My laugh for the week! Thanks for sharing!
