Photography Husband for Trade

Seen on Craigslist:

WTT: Ken Rockwell-Obsessed Husband

WTT: Ken Rockwell-Obsessed Husband (North York)

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 think this should have been posted in the Photographer's Marketplace forum.

If that was humour, it was misplaced humour.
If it wasn't humour, you were just...WRONG.

If the guy was older than 36, I'd suspect DB might be in the dog house.

What does f.o.s stand for?

Full of Shit.

Always happy to further the expanse and understanding of the better parts of the English language.
