Seen on Freecycle
I love Freecycle. It’s an amazing community of people who give and get things that they need for free. When I left the valley in 2005, I “freecycled” (it’s becoming a verb!) a lot of stuff. And, in moving back, we’ve gotten a lot of very useful stuff lately on freecycle - a nice grill, some varied furniture. We’ve also given a fair bit of stuff away. It’s a great way to get things you need or want, and a great way to give away things that you don’t need or want, without them going to the landfill. Anyway, today, this came across freecycle - and it’s by far the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.

Looking for something soft and plushy, not worn out. Must be in good shape, and from a non-smoking household. My current husband is so old and tired and needs replacing. I’ll take any color - I’m not picky. Husband will be used mainly to lie down on the bed with. Surely you have one of these just kickin’ around the house you dont need anymore?
Update: It turns out, this is for a “Husband Pillow!” (Didn’t know these things existed.)
