Why, yes. Yes, I am.

Dearest Craigslist,
Had I known that "Are you a fan of Herman Melville?" could be used to seduce and beguile men, I might have gotten in a great deal of trouble in recent months.

Then again, that the poster in question did not actually answer the question which might suggest that the woman who asked it was just attractive enough to get over a line as bad as "are you a fan of Herman Melville?" I'm pretty sure I'm not that woman considering mens' eyes usually go a bit glassy when mention Moby-Dick...unless they have also majored in English. Then it's a 50/50 chance that the eyes glaze over.
