Dear Stranger readers:
YOU are an essential part of what we do. Simply put, without recurring monthly contributions from readers like you, it's impossible to provide the high quality journalism that protects the marginalized and holds the powerful accountable. We've all seen what happens to communities when reporting disappears and falsehoods take root. So if you believe our mission is important and necessary, please consider a monthly (or one-time) contribution to the Stranger, and we'll keep working hard for you and those who need it most!
Thanks, we appreciate you!
Please wait...

"OK son, here's your new Retina Macbook Pro, now no fooling around with dudes"
"Sure thing dad, this chunk of metal and glass completely relieves my desire for big throbbing cock"
But why let that ruin a good post about an apparently outrageous craigslist ad?
Rather than a new computer, he should go for bigger-ticket, "straighter" rewards that hold their value - a Corvette and lots of guns. All very resellable once he turns 18 and want to put the proceeds into a Saab or Prius and into decorating his out-of-state dorm room.
(For anyone making the obvious Onan rebuttal: Onan's sin was in wasting seed that was destined for procreation, which clearly none of his son's seed is destined for)
Because for that I might go straight.
Straight to the HD gay porn!
1. Legit ad from a completely clueless parent.
2. Cynical troll with the creativity to come up with this.
Both are horrible.
He's hilarious...
But seriously, spoiling his kid is the least of this dad's worries.
Wish my dad had bought me porn machines to get me to stop doing the things he didn't want me doing. Which was mostly looking at naked lady pictures.
Fun side: Okay Mom, if you buy me a computer with a faster internet connection I promise to only do straight stuff with it. The internet turned me straight!
Los Angeles -- where even homophobic parents would know better than to to outright troll bait like that.
Might think it, might do it. Not likely to announce it on Craig's List.
Not in L.A.
And I agree with everyone else who says this is a hoax. If the story was true, the parent would be keeping it secret.

* Culver City is immediately south of West Hollywood (the Gayest area of LA, right)?
* On the other hand, Culver City is in LA (the crazy and delusional capital of the USA, right)?
AND
* Houses in LA are so big and separate, that all kinds of crazy could "co-exist" in that city without even realizing it.
Didn't I see this in a porn once?
Although it is odd that they would expect lots of messages about spoiling the kid, but not for the homophobia/idiocy. Probably a hoax.
cum on, girls- shop till you drop!
Have you ever been to LA? All of your bullet points are pretty far off. Culver City is also the least "LA" part of LA. (and technically, not part of LA, but it's own city.)
It's a hoax - I've been talking to the high school kid who did it for half the day.

I know people who cannot add three and four without a calculator. I know people who work in accounting departments but don't know what the word "cumulative" means. Seriously, people are stupid. You may not see it, because intellectuals tend to hang out with other intellectuals, but trust me. People stupid enough to try to bribe their kids into being straight actually do exist. (Not saying this has actually happened, just that there are people who are stupid enough to try it.)
No I haven't been to LA.
i live in l,a, and while there are certainly pockets of homophobia here, i knew from the way it was written, it had to be a hoax.
