Laney College Flea Market

Laney College Flea Market takes place every Sunday morning at Laney College in Oakland. Mayhaps I never understood the true meaning of a flea market but its basically one big garage sale where people take the shit they no longer want in hopes that you'll want it.

Don't get me wrong, I've had one or two garage sales of my own and I TOTALLY get the concept of pawning my unwanted shit off to some unsuspecting dimwit. But some of the stuff these people were trying to sell was just plain silly.

Okay, you know its used because the tube is visibly half full (I'm an optimist). And chances are this man paid less than 3 bucks for this Johnson and Johnson brand tube-o-lube. Is it REALLY imperative that he get a little return on this botched investment? Can't he just call it a loss and move on? It was so bizarre. For those of you who are curious, he was this fat, short and very jolly looking mexican dude with dad style water sandals and a straw hat. Thought he'd be some creepy old white man, didn't you? Didn't you?! You racist.
