I’ll say it: There’s nothing better than Facebook Marketplace. The sheer joy of going back and forth on an item, getting the right dimensions, figuring out what wear it is in, and then driving way out of your way to spend more on gas than the actual object. Nothing fires me up like a good haggle. When you break them down $50 on a $75 item and they say yes, think about how much I save a year! Do I spend way too much time on FBMP? Maybe? Have I gotten some cool things? That's a dumb question. My entire space is filled with FBMP gems. I like to think of it as a long-term rental system; I buy it, use it for a bit, and if I move and have to sell it, well, back to the river in which it came. The best thing about FBM is the sheer range of items that people own, and today that is what I will highlight. Over the last couple weeks, I’ve been saving some of my favorite items.

Context: Will and I were going through FBMP and this caught our eye. Till this day still cracks me up. She was pressed to get this thing out. I wonder where it is today.

I don't know what to write for this one. A true man of the water

Why is it here? Where has it gone? How many miles does it get to the gallon? Is it street legal? Can someone buy this with me.

Thank you for this, I can see the comfort. Also matching adidas socks and shoes! NICE!

The key master

Who is this for? I am so baffled by this one. Also nationwide delivery, that has to cost soooooo much.
Closing Notes: I am in shock and awe all at the same time. My adhd brain loves this stuff. I will probably have a part two. Also if you ever see anything super funny on the FBMP, please send it my way.
As always... till next time.
