Called him up for an estimate. He sounded real shocked and confused that someone was actually calling him about this. Got a real weird vibe from him so I never called him back. His post was probably some coded message for drugs or prostitution or something. In the meantime I keep paying monthly storage for no reason because I'm an idiot.

I don't need professional, I just need someone to take this crap away. Sketchy Craigslist guy quoted me $150. Should just call him back and hope I don't get kidnapped and sold into human trafficking.

The “penis flavored” candy pills were once available for purchase as a gag gift on the shelves of a “family friendly” store in Gimli, Manitoba. They have since been removed after a 12-year-old girl bought a pack and questioned her parents about the product’s authenticity. Several of the city’s residents, like Mona Johnston, are “mortified” and “embarrassed” that the Gay Away pills were even in the community. “It’s absolutely not right,” she told CBC News, “I don’t support this in any way, shape or form.”

Rachelle Mistelbacher, the owner of the store where the candy was available, apologized and removed the product from shelves following backlash from the community. She maintains it was an “honest mistake” and insists her business does not condone the product’s message.
