I don't know if this was an April Fools joke or not. What I do know is that it made me cry.

I really....really hope that this was not a joke, because if it was, it's pretty much the #@*%iest one Boing Boing could have come up with, especially since I usually consider the BB folks to be pretty nice guys.

I seriously think there should be laws in place to combat this sort of thing.

Basically a "stupidity" clause for walking into someone's house and taking their things, based on an online advertisement alone.

In this day and age, you can't be too careful, and I don't think it would be that much of a problem to sign a quick piece of paper that says "I give so and so permission to take anything permission from my house" and slap your signature on it.

There, your butt is covered in a court of law.

Frankly, I think he should take these people to court for theft.

I'm sorry, but how would her THREE year old know what a penis even looks like?

Seriously, this wouldn't be a big deal except for the fact that she is making it one. Her three year old would have chugged her apple juice happily and been none the wiser.
