A Brooklyn journalist is looking to crack open the biggest story since Watergate: Are there actually women who don't like Ryan Gosling? He posted this Craigslist ad in search of "women who DISLIKE Ryan Gosling for an article." A difficult quest, given that Ryan Gosling's approval ratings hit an all time high yesterday after warning British journalist Laurie Penny about an oncoming Taxi. (More on that later.)

After a quick glance at this Craigslist help wanted ad for an office manager of a Manhattan eye surgery clinic, you may be tempted to apply, given the good salary ($50,000-$80,000) and ample vacation. But read the whole thing, and it becomes clear that no amount of money is worth plunging into this labyrinth of crazy.

James "this loser" Kolb should be more careful about the computer-savvy women he double crosses. His wife took to Craigslist after finding pictures of James posing with a woman, presumably his girlfriend. Revenge is a dish best posted on the Internet. With the good-for-nothing's full name and location.

Another year, another wholesome Conservative Political Action Conference. In addition to hearing white rappers drop N-bombs and Ann Coulter talk about how "all real females are conservatives," CPAC attendees were treated to a lesson from pickup artist Juggler. You know, the one who isn't Mystery.

A 52-year-old man and a teenaged boy from Ohio stand accused of some truly nightmarish crimes: They allegedly placed a Craigslist ad searching for someone to earn $300 a week to "watch over a 688 acre patch of hilly farmland and feed a few cows."

There's 74 katrillion people in New York and sometimes it seems like there is absolutely no one, especially when you start researching that great post-modern cry for romantic attention: the Craigslist "Missed Connection" ad. Where do most of these missed connections happen? In Union Square.

Here's a good story to lead off the inevitable Times trend piece about protesters finding love at Occupy Wall Street: Boy spots girl being arrested on the Brooklyn Bridge. Boy posts Craigslist missed connection.

Federal prosecutors just jumped into a long running slapfight between eBay and Craigslist over how the former acquired a stake in the latter. As it turns out, they're on Craigslist's side: They've opened a criminal probe into whether eBay executives used their ownership to illicitly obtain competitive information.

Indiana State Rep. Phillip Hinkle, the anti-gay marriage Indiana Republican accused of offering to pay a young man he met over Craigslist for "a good time," admits that he paid the man but contends that they didn't do anything illicit — they just talked about "baseball and the view."

Indiana State Rep. Phillip "Phil" Hinkle, a Republican who recently voted for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, had quite a Saturday evening this past weekend in the company of an 18-year-old young man named "Kameryn," to whom Hinkle allegedly showed his penis and then "grabbed in the rear." Isn't life wonderful?

Imagine a bargain hunter's shock and dismay when responding to an ad on Craigslist listing a bunch of possessions for sale and then receiving an email announcing that gay people, Muslims, and illegal immigrants aren't allowed to purchase the wares. Read it for yourself.

We've all wanted to get back at our significant other's awful ex, but Natasha Larson went a little too far. She posted a personal ad on Craigslist posing as her husband's ex, posted her name and address, and told men to come over for quick, easy sex.

New York's 26th congressional district went to the polls on Tuesday to pick a replacement for their former representative Christopher Lee, who resigned after we caught him sending shirtless photos to women he met on Craigslist. The winner? Democrat Kathy Hochul, whose victory has been declared a repudiation of the Republican Medicare plan. Kathy!

Two New York City police officers disciplined for "hooker trouble" are apparently being investigated in relation to the murders of four prostitutes whose bodies turned up on a Long Island beach earlier this year.

The 34-year-old Marylander whose Craigslist flirtation drew a resignation from a U.S. Congressman has advice for ex-Rep. Christopher Lee's wife: "Go get tested." We talked to Lee's would-be lover by phone this morning and rehashed the last 24 hours.

Ex-congressman Chris Lee knows a thing or two about the dangers of the Internet. In June 2009, he penned this op-ed in the Tonawanda News explaining why he helped pass legislation that would "educate students on the dangers of the Internet." Guess the lesson plan didn't include a section on why it's a bad idea to send sexy half-naked pictures to random women on Craigslist using your real name and e-mail address.

"I have to work this out with my wife." —Craigslist Congressman Christopher Lee, to Fox News.

Rep. Christopher Lee is a married Republican congressman serving the 26th District of New York. But when he trolls Craigslist's "Women Seeking Men" forum, he's Christopher Lee, "divorced" "lobbyist" and "fit fun classy guy." One object of his flirtation told us her story.
