This is 24-carat gold:

Hi. We are Tohbeye, Katisha and Liam. We are seeking a wonderful and unique humyn to be a room mate, no life-mate. We are seeking not just a new housemate but an addition to our COMMUNITY.

About the housemates:
We are currently a great community of artists, activists, vegans and poets. We brew kombucha by day, howl at the moon by night and practice yoga at dawn. We follow this by a cleansing breakfast of wheatgrass and kale (grown from our own garden). We practice astral projection as a daily ritual you are welcome, no, strongly *encouraged* to participate. We then traverse to our day-passions (we do *not* use the word job in this life community) on our vintage biycles. Tohbye is a vintage and vegan food blogger, Tohbeye is an independent lute musician, Liam is a yoga instructor.

Our evenings are filled with slam poetry and activism. We are currently involved in activism groups for gay rights and womens liberation. And Palestine.

About you:
You are queer/trans/bi-friendly and would be preferred if you are queer/trans/bi yourself -- we not not want to pollute our life community with hetereonormative vibes.
You are a vegan who eats only organic fair trade food. We are all concerned with the poison and harmful chemicals in GMO products.
We smoke in our life community and this is okay for you also.
You are *not* employed full time in a 9-5 office job.
You are a freelance writer, independent musician, activist or fill your day with other life-passions.
You are respectful of others and do more than your fair share of cleaning and tending to vegan-friendly organic only garden.
You enjoy to party but understand that time after 8pm is quiet time but understand that any time after 8pm is our spiritual rejuvination period.
Finally, you do not dictate what others can and cannot do.

About:

The room is very cosy and will allow you to get in touch with your inner-spirit. We do not like asking for rent (we feel money is such an imperalist construct) however we ask for a donation of $650 per month to participate in our life community.

If you are interested please send me an email and tell us why you want to participate in our life community.

Somebody HAS to be taking the piss with that ad, right? :shock:
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

If he actually gets a room there I expect a thread on the bored board ala Kinsgwoods "My hotel room is mocking me" :P

Maybe I should apply. Basic resume could be as follows:

Strong hetrosexual leanings but it's been a fair drought so I'm just about willing to root anything that will hold still long enough.

Love vegan food, perfect accompaniment to a rare rib eye steak

Don't have a 9-5 job, it's more like 8-6, is there an off street parking space as I drive a Ford XR6 and I wouldn't want dirty hippie types rubbing past it if it was parked on the street, ruin the paint you know.

I smoke and am very fond of fermented drinks so we should get along famously. Is there space for me to put my wine collection?

I'm extremely tolerant of others, I have to put up with **** every day where I earn my significant remuneration, I'm sure I can tolerate 3 chanting unemployed arty farty new age types for a short period.


Whatya think?
:P

You write the script, I'll take 20% for creative input. :P

Hmmmm ...

Three and a Half Hippies, starring Stui, David, Jezza, and NPM.

Think of it as The Young Ones Series III.

Hmmm, nah, that casting is more like 3 capitalists and a hippie.

Mind you, the young ones theme still works.

I'll be Mike, David is Neil, Nick is Rik and Jezza can be Vyvyan . If Jezza objects, we can swap. :P

I was thinking more The Goodies, although we might be up a number. I guess I have to be Bill Oddie by default.
