The 13 Worst Things I Found on Craigslist While Looking for a NYC Sublet
• “We are a house of makers, doers, and artists. One of us is an installation artist, another is a writer and hot rock singer, one is a printmaker, one is a southern fashion designer, one does special effects makeup.”
• “There is a cat you will be caring for.”
• “The room is shared with a lovely young woman and as such, only females need apply.”
• “Couples/420/cigarettes/drinking totally ok, but NO PETS.”
• “Room DOUBLES AS A MUSIC TEACHING STUDIO from 9:30 AM — 9:00PM ON WED, THUR & FRIDAY so you would need to be out during these hours on these days.”
• “I smoke in the kitchen, but only there and a heavy curtain blocks the door.”
• “1br — Open House!-Curtained living room available from June 5, female only”
• “It is a shared, converted 1 BR, Upper East Side apartment. The converted area can be hidden by a curtain. I tend to stay in my room when at home, and would never encroach upon your space.”
• “SHE’S A FASHION DESIGNER AND CAN SHOW YOU AROUND TO SOME PRETTY COOL PLACES IF YOU’D LIKE.”
• “There is even access to a phone!”
• “SINCE IT IS A LOFT, WE DO NOT HAVE TRADITIONALLY BUILT PRIVATE BEDROOMS. INSTEAD, THEY ARE SEMI-PRIVATE SLEEPING AREAS. WE ARE VERY FRIENDLY AND FLEXIBLE PEOPLE.”
• “Shared studio.”
• “I am a German guy in my thirties with a small but very cozy and warm apartment to share on the Upper East. I sleep on a futon in the living room; you have your own private room with a window going out to the fire escape.”
