Craigslist Missed Connections Stalker Drama! Local media picks it up!
From a mouse on [info]wank_report, word for word:

Evxanadu is a lonely, horny fellow who is given a friendly wave by a young girl he deems "SHY GIRL" while out jogging.

He very quickly becomes obsessed and maybe a tad creepy.

He can't find the girl a fourth time and she hasn't contacted him yet. He makes fliers and posts them around the jogging path.

He posts three consecutive times to CraigsList Missed Connections.

Here, he hits a nerve, instantly earning the nickname of Scary McRaperape.

There are many, many wanky reaction posts, from the snide and brief to the philisophical and tl:dr. Some posts sort of defend him , even going so far as to quote existential writers.

Evxanadu waffles , regrets and backpedals a little.

Evidently it is a slow news day in Minneapolis, as the local Fox news franchise catches wind of the story over the weekend and runs a brief feature. Evxanadu is there with the transcript.

And here it is

Fox's segment on the Shy Girl flyers

After reading this, I feel like I need to take a bath in bleach, don a monk's robes while jogging, and carry a tazer with me. Or learn self-defense or something. Maybe all four.

And ummm...

WHY ARE PEOPLE DEFENDING THIS GUY??

*headdesks repeatedly*

"We know him! He couldn't possibly not be nice!"

At least this mess has made him high-profile. If he does pull anything, the police know just where to find him and his LJ posts proving intent.

I'm touched by this story! Y'know, in that "show me where on the doll" kind of way. *shudder*

Is your icon from the Bleach comic where Ukitake gives Hitsuguya a statue of himself for his birthday? If so, FTW!

D: He carries the name of the friendly neighbourhood comic store.

Carolyn is the young daughter of the business-owner. She has a
boyfriend of her own, and from my initial attempts she seems 100%
oblivious to flirtation. like water off a duck's back.


Oh. God. This guy is so disgusting it makes even my teeth feel scummy. How do you reach 37 without learning that flirting with jailbait and shouting aggressively at single women and carrying around duct tape for chrissake != successful mating strategies?

Maybe she is impervious to the advances of 37-year old creep show scumbags. For her sake, I sure hope so.

God. I'm gonna need a long, scalding hot bath. My disgust is enormous. And he just gets WORSE the more people look back on his entries.

Or maybe she's, you know, not interested? (Age and creepiness aside.)

Or have I got my pesky logic circuits switched on again?

I love the way he doesn't know how to post a reply to comments on his posts. It's just the icing on the Batshit-Cake.

That poster was the goddamn creepiest thing I've ever seen in my life.

I'm sitting here clutching my criminology textbook and looking up rapist typologies, because classifying this guy's kind of batshit is the only thing that'll make me feel better.

Watching this guy is eerie. He documents everything he does in detail, and from his comments, he knows exactly how he appears--his "slow, angry smile" is what got me. He even has some clue about why people react to him the way they do. But he keeps doing it.

(6) Again, the girl herself is probably pretty creeped out. The last time I saw her, I didn't smile and say "C'mon!" pleasantly : the animal inside me GROWLED "C'MON!" with a hint of rage. Cause I can _tell_ (or maybe I'm just crazy) that she likes me, but that she's just quite wary of strangers. Sorry, SG.

Coming from someone who enjoys writing about the darker side of things, I read through all that and I could hear in the background of my mind that one bit from the Ren and Stimpy episode where they were going door to door selling rubber nipples and came across Mr. Horse and the walrus begging them to call the police.

Honestly, creepy romantic is buying someone you care about a Teddy Scare. This...this is something the police or higher should keep an eye on.

The sheer creepiness, the weird looking guy in the icon - this has to be a joke. Because otherwise? Uh yeah, I'm never leaving my house again. And i live across the country from this dude.

One time I had this guy who had found my personal blog state on his personal blog that he not only hated me with a passion but that "If I could, I would do something violent to her she infuriates me to no end." TOTAL STRANGER. Of course, I was sufficently creeped out/pissed off, so I posted about it, which brought out his friends in DROVES. All of them, naturally, kept saying, "Well, you don't know him, he'd never, like, actually hurt anyone!"

AND YOU JUST HAVE TO LOVE IT. Because of course the entire point is that I JUST DON'T KNOW HIM and so what right does he have to talk about me/what he wants to do to me as if we know each other. And his defender's inability to grasp this simple connection was even more disturbing.

And this guy ... uuuugh. This guy needs, uh, to be kicked in the nuts by the next girl he "runs" after.

And what do they have to say about US? A friend chimes in:

fucking ivory tower bitches with their "pay to post" nonsense that keeps us out. i WANT mail from this fiasco... i'm so bored and lonely.

Well, at least that last part is dead on!

Er, is that animal in his chest like Harry Potter, when the animal in his chest growls at Ginny Weasley? It was dumb the first time I read about it, but at least it was fictional.

Dude, you need to understand that ROMANTIC does not equal STALKER. Ever. Have you seen a shrink? You obvioulsy need therapy and/or medication. Or a hooker. Pay someone. Once you've gotten over your testosterone poisoning, maybe you'll be able to think with your brain instead of your dick. You're worse than a 16 year old boy, and about 3000% creepier. Grow the fuck up and take some responsibility. Unless there are voices in your head and they made you do this. In which case please go to your nearest hospital and ask where Ward 6 is.
