A chair that might have been used by Ralph Nader, a drunk clown, and a Pope hats are just a few of the strangest offerings on Craigslist. That's according to Britain's "Telegraph," which has compiled its list of the 20 most bizarre postings on the classifieds website. Topping the list is a chair, described as having, quote, "a nice red, commie upholstery and a sleek black plastic backing," which the post notes Nadar, quote, "MAY have sat in." Coming in at number two is "I want some orange juice," a person who's offering to pay someone two-dollars plus expenses to have OJ delivered to their home because, quote, "I'm too lazy to get it myself." Taking third place is "Seeking an adult drunk clown for 30th birthday party." The preferred candidate doesn't have to do any clown tricks but just needs to be, quote, "good at getting drunk and stupid."Number four goes to a, quote, "Full head rubber mask, old, has discoloration on white feather part from age, storage," while an ad seeking a woman to, quote, "sit in my bath tub full of noodles, wearing a bathing suit" rounds out the top five. A collection of more than 13-hundred replica Pope hats comes in eighth place, behind the search for a pony for a kids' party -- not for rides but to serve as the meal -- and a 60-something-year-old woman looking to make some extra money by renting out her bathroom. Another ad seeks attractive women to serve as bridesmaids, while doggie diapers and stuffed penguins are also for sale. The "Telegraph" admits not all posts are authentic, but says even the pranks, quote, "reflect the spirit" of the website.
