Laundry Night - m4m - 28 (Buena Park)

This guy is certainly washing his dirty laundry in public. From craigslist Chicago:

To the cute guy who lives in my building: we pulled our laundry out at the same time. I was deep in thought when you said "hi," otherwise I would've tried to strike up a conversation with you. Email me if you want to chat - you just live a couple apartments below me. :-)

Dear officer, you were the best part of my jury duty! - w4m - 26 (Moultrie Courthouse, DC)

This juror has certainly reached a verdict. From craigslist Washington:

At around 12:30 on Thursday you walked into a courtroom near where jurors were pooling. As a potential juror, I was sitting, waiting, and reading. I saw you walk up and suddenly had something to look at. We made extended eye contact and I'd love to meet up for coffee.
I was wearing a bright pink sweater and had horrible posture (it's normally better, I promise). You were tall, dark, and handsome with short hair-- super attractive and exactly my type. I think you were a police officer, but you weren't wearing the uniform I'm used to.
Describe the shirt you were wearing so I know that it's you.

To the guy next to me at Priscilla.. - m4m - 29 (Midtown West)

This could actually be part of the plot of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert. From craigslist New York:

To the guy next to me at Priscilla.. You were a wonderful seat mate despite the fact that:
- I was with my parents
- The women in front of us refused to shower
- We only got to talk a small amount during intermission
I hope to keep in touch. Us airline boys can go anywhere. I'd love to buy you a drink on the West Coast. RY

Before getting off the subway, you started singing. I liked that - m4w - 29

A deep thinker in pink who sings on the subway. Wow. From craigslist Washington:

We stood next to each other on the metro. You were gorgeous, wearing pink and looked like a deep thinker. You put headphones in before I had a chance to strike up a conversation. Before getting off the subway at L’Enfant, you started singing. I liked that. Want to have a picnic?

You are no longer my wife - m4w (rohnert pk / cotati)

Now that's a romantic way to get divorced, Maybe they'll spot each other on the tram in a few years time and start all over again. From craigslist San Francisco:

D, 
As of today, we are no longer married. I know it's for the best, but I will always love you. I know we both regret the way things turned out. I doubt you will ever see this, and that is okay. I am moving on with my life, as you are. Take care, I hope you have an amazing life, I hope you are truly happy. You will always be my missed connection.
Love, WB

French girl at Think Cafe, you talked ever so much. - m4w (SoHo)

Now that's kooky for you… and surely a great casting opportunity for Woody Allen. From craigslist New York:

Really you did. You talked nonstop at around five minute intervals. Really you did, cause all around you, people look up to see, what idiot could possibly manage, such a burst of language.
 You're like that naive neurotic from a Woody Allen film with endless complaints. Really you are most comical. You should be put in display for all to see, eternally pouring gibberish.
 And such a lyrical face, but alas you talk too much!

Metropolis tattoo, digging through the Goodwill bins - m4w - 24

Not sleepless in Seattle, just digging through the goodwill bins… From craigslist Seattle:

You were the striking blonde trying on schlumpy grandpa sweaters. I was the nerdwad fighting off crackheads for cassette tapes. You are everything beautiful, compressed into a single body. Perhaps sometime soon we can discuss "airport" over a pile of mighty-o's? That would be so niiiiiiiiice.

SpinCycle No Detergent - m4w - 28 (South Congress)

Talk about washing your dirty laundry in public… From craigslist Austin:

At first I thought you were looking at me because you thought I was cute (I thought you were beautiful). Then I realized that you just wanted to ask me for some laundry detergent. You tried to pay me back but I should have asked you for a date instead of declining your money. I couldn't get up the courage to ask you out right there in the middle of the laundromat, but I am kicking myself for not doing it. If you want to take me up on that date let me know...we can both go in our newly clean clothes to a movie or dinner or something. I really hope you read missed connections. Put the color of my car in the title so I know it's you.
