The Pig Sofa

I really enjoyed reading this bizarre account of a pig couch. It features a kind of soft-core faux grifter who uses Craigslist for a curious kind of performance art.

An excerpt:

“She moved on to other lighthearted posts. In one, she posed as a snail who had upgraded to a larger shell and sought to rent the old one. (‘It’s perfect for the adolescent gastropod looking to expand his/her living space while avoiding predators. You’ll love the rare left-handed spiraling, steep aperture, and funky asymmetrical whorls.’) In another, she advertised her services as a ‘fragmented consciousness technician,’ offering to repair people’s broken brains.”
