Yesterday in Extra, Extra, we brought you the story of the Pleasures Gentlemen's Club in Pasadena getting cited for excessive nudity and illegal contact with patrons. A savvy commenter linked us to an oldie, but goodie Best of Craigslist posting from three years ago featuring a guy with some supposed political connections:
Fellow CLers take notice because this is going to blow you away! I just landed a job that you won't fucking believe. My father worked for the city of LA for a long time and just recently they decided to create this job. (my father is retired now) I only got the opportunity to do this b/c of my father's good standing with the city but check it out. I AM GOING TO ENFORCE THE NEW LAP-DANCE LAWS! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH WHOOOOO HHOOOOOOOO SUCKAS! That's right, I have been hired to go from strip club to strip club and watch strippers/dancers to make sure that they adhere to the new laws. I go in and monitor at first and then I am allowed to ask for a lap dance or "dance" and if the dancer gets too freaky then POW! she and the bar get fined! WILL I GET MAD PUSSY OR WILL I GET THE PUSSY MAD?!?!??!!? Fellow CLers, praise to god, it gets better. My degree is in Communications and I have been working for the last two years for a private advertising company for peanuts; guess what the city of LA is paying me to do this job!?!??!!??!?...ready?....listening?...ready?... .........$72,000 DOLLARS A YEAR...HAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAHA SUCKAS! RIGHT NOW I AM RUNNING AROUND THE HOUSE NAKED THINKING OF ALL THE HOT, YOUNG, SLUTS I WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF.....WHOOOOOOO HHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....STAY TUNED B/C THIS CAN ONLY GET BETTER AND I WILL KEEP YOU GUYS UPDATED!!!!!!!
Too bad that law fell through. Nice dream of becoming an insta-cop though:)
