"Although Currently We Are Straight, Do Not Let This Discourage You"

My friend Gavin found this creepy ad for female roommates on craigslist.

From the listing (in an attempt to explain what it feels like to live at the house):

The best way to describe it is:
The atmosphere that you have experienced while attending
a baby or wedding shower.

There is a synergy which creates an effervesance that
lifts everyone’s spirit. It is a type of joy.

Laughter while sharing the events of the day is the
atmosphere at the Manor.


And....

"JUST SO YOU KNOW WE ARE CURRENTLY ALL STRAIGHT OR HETROSEXUAL FEMALES IN OUR MID TWENTIES TO EARLY THIRTIES. ANYONE IS WELCOME TO APPLY .
ALTHOUGH CURRENTLY WE ARE STRAIGHT, DO NOT LET
THAT DISCOURGE YOU."

25. Do you accept no for an answer: Yes /_/ No /_/.


Update: the ad has been deleted by the authors.

this seems to appear and disappear, brigadoon-like, from the craigslist mists on a fairly regular basis:
