| So, you can't spell 'polygraph' -- but tell me, does this thing work? |
With the convenience of shopping via Craigslist comes the cost of bogus online claims and exaggerations. In this Craigslist-ese sub-dialect, "Canine-gnawed, smelly monstrosity" becomes "Vintage Queen Anne couch" and "mangy, rabid ankle-biter" becomes "sweet female puppy." On July 17, however, Craigslist introduced in the San Francisco Bay Area a type of advertisement that verifies its own veracity.
Titled "Commerical (Sic) Grade Grass 7 Pollygraph (Sic) Machine - $1100 (hayward / castro valley)" the advertisement allows potential buyers to drive to Hayward, demand that the seller strap himself into his own product, and then respond to the question" "Does this thing actually work?"
If the needles don't move, a potential buyer just might have him or herself a bargian.
