If you've never browsed the "Missed Connections" section of Craigslist, you're missing out on some interesting stories. Missed Connections are where people post on Craigslist, hoping to find someone that they met but never got their contact information, or someone they passed on the street.
The following 12 Missed Connections are from people in my city, Chicago, Illinois.

Crossing the street, I tripped and went SPLAT in the crosswalk. I fell so hard my hat flew off my head.
You: 2 white men that offered to help. You guys gathered the items that spilled out of my groceries bags and handed the bags to me.

Thank you very much, you two!"
