File this one under This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things: Other cities certainly have their own wars and rivalries on the Rants & Raves section of Craigslist, but for some reason (Del-Val Bitchface Disease? Overcompensating Asshole-itis?), Philly has taken it to the next level, to the point where we are a national Craigslist laughing stock. And seriously? Our Philly R&R mooks have earned it. On Philly CL, if it’s not the amazing racism, it’s the homophobia. And if that don’t get ya goin’, it’s a sure shot that something in the xenophobic pantheon will. And it will show up on Rants & Raves. Case in point: The ongoing discussion regarding whether Jesus Christ of Nazareth was a, and we quote, “cocksucker” or “pussyeater.” I know: It’s been on my mind a lot lately too, right? Anyway, it’s just an example. For what’s it worth, though, let’s just say it’s a good thing that nobody looks at Craigslist. Oh wait. Fuck.
