For the sake of discussion, assume that your wife has a flaky friend named Erica, and Erica needs your help with something. Erica has a KEEN NOSE FOR DEALS and she has found, right here on Craigslist, a FREE THIRTY-SIX INCH TELEVISION, just COME AND GET IT, and she needs YOUR help to go pick it up because her car isn't big enough.
Oh, the TV doesn't work, and you will have to store the colossal piece of junk in your garage until Erica can find the time to get down to Portland, where her boyfriend's cousin works as a TV repairman, because Erica's own garage is already full to the rafters with broken junk.
If this was happening to you, you might warn your wife that Erica is a colossal flake who can barely plan a trip to Wal-Mart, much less a jaunt across state lines. You might worry that that this huge, broken television will remain in your garage until the HEAT DEATH OF THE UNIVERSE. Erica is never going to make it down to Portland to see her boyfriend's cousin. For God's sake, Erica and her boyfriend will probably break up next week, and isn't there enough suffering in the world without taking a broken television from a stranger?
Any man knows how this story ends. It ends with a giant, broken television gathering dust in your garage, and your wife not wanting to talk about it, and then eventually it's probably your fault, too. Also, Erica borrowed your camcorder and never gave it back AND she has a STUPID FACE, but that is another story.
Fast forward a few years. Erica and the boyfriend are broken up, and you are divorced, but the damn TV is still in your garage, mocking you. But there is a happy ending!
The 36" TV can be YOURS. Don't think of it as a mere television. Because it isn't. It's garbage, technically hazardous waste because the picture tube is full of lead. But it's also an instrument of elegant, passive-aggressive revenge.
Are you someone's Erica? Would you like to be? Got a bridge to burn? Because I have the gasoline, baby.
Get a "friend" to help you out this weekend. Come get the TV from me. Your "friend" will store it for you, temporarily, until you can get it down to Portland where someone will fix it for you. Hah! Then, you disappear, leaving the poor sucker with the TV. The wheel turns. The cycle continues.
It's a beautiful thing.
There may be drinking, later. Who's to say?
Drop me a line. I have your TV. You just need a friend to help you move it...
