Do People Understand How Buying Things Works? These Posts Make Us Seriously Question That.

When I recently moved, most of the stuff I no longer wanted/needed, I just threw out. It was a shame, really, because there was stuff in there that I probably could have sold off and found a nice new home for had I not been so pressed for time.

The few items I did decide to list proved almost more trouble than they were worth. After days of back and forth with several people over some speakers, for example, I ended up handing it off at the last minute for what was, in retrospect, probably a lot less than they were worth.

But at least I didn’t have to deal with people like the ones in these screenshots…

11. Trigger happy.

You sound way too excited to sue somebody.

10. Half off!

“I’d like to buy your product but could you also do a bunch of extra work on it first and then charge me less as a result?”

9. Simp

Did you just try to “I know you are so what am I” your way into switching buyer and seller?

8. A clean break.

Maintaining a pool costs several thousand dollars a year, a bottle’s worth of tap water is like a penny.

7. The ol’ switcheroo.

Hey, at least he tried.

6. That’ll do, pig.

Yeah, I’m cuttin’ you off for your own good.

5. Sob stories.

As always, if they claim they can get it cheaper somewhere else but they don’t go somewhere else, they’re lying.

4. It’s my cash and I want it now!

You really don’t understand how this works, do you?

3. How wonderful!

Weird how every single person trying to buy something frivolous on the internet also happens to be going through a rough time that very moment.

2. Cars for kids.

Depending on how good of shape the car is in, this might actually not be that awful of a trade…

1. Mowed over.

Once again, the tragedy gambit fails.

Remember: don’t waste people’s time out there. Haggle, sure. But don’t be these folks.

Do you have a nightmare sales story?

10 of the Worst Roommates Of All Time

Depending on where you like to get your information, apparently the number of American adults living with roommate(s) has gone up by somewhere around 10% in the last 20 years. At this rate, in a mere 140 years, every single person will have at least one roommate.

That would be mostly bad, though it would give us a lot of fodder for subreddits that specialize and thrive off of people complaining about the people they live with.

Like these!

10. Shirt happens

What’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine.

Friend has a creepy roommate. from cringepics

9. Foiled again

What exactly were they using it for?

So my roommate used my tin foil from mildlyinfuriating

8. Dolla dolla bills

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say your roommate is a stripper.

The way my roommate gives me rent from mildlyinfuriating

7. Meal time!

That looks like it’s been caked on for weeks.

Wanted to make a nice meal. Roommates habits had other plans. from mildlyinfuriating

6. Empty inside

When you literally have way too much chill.

My roommate puts the empty milk containers back into the fridge. from mildlyinfuriating

5. Very driven

I think what you’re looking for is a chauffeur. Or…yanno, just a car.

Need a roomie/miracle.. single ladies only. from ChoosingBeggars

4. The thin line

But think of what she’s doing for the environment.

It was my roommate’s turn to buy toilet paper from mildlyinfuriating

3. Water, water everywhere

He’s building an army of bottles and you’ll rue the day you laughed at them.

The way my roommate can never finish a water from mildlyinfuriating

2. Back in the tube

I feel like I should call the police but I’m not sure what to report once I do.

How my roommate uses toothpaste from mildlyinfuriating

1. Knife to meet you

Do the dishes? Sure, I’ll take a stab at it.

How my roommate places knifes in the drying board…. from mildlyinfuriating

We’ve all had bad roommates, hopefully most of us haven’t experienced any quite this bad. For those who have, godspeed to all of you.

What’s the worst roommate story you’ve got?

Check Out Some of the Dumbest Roommate Moves Ever

Here’s a true story…

A few days ago I moved into my own place for the first time in my entire life. I don’t wanna say how old I am, but suffice it to mention that I’m…older than the average person is when striking out without a roommate for the first time in their lives.

I’ve shared lots of different places with lots of different people. Some of them are perfectly pleasant, others are awful, most are somewhere in between.

But rarely do any hold a candle to the outrageous crap perpetrated by the people being complained about in these Reddit posts.

10. Off the cup

What kind of awful monster…

My roommate ate all of the peanut butter cups off of the cupcakes that were made from mildlyinfuriating

9. The juice is loose

A fool and his money are soon partied.

My roommate spent her paycheck too fast again, so I offered to get us liquor. It devolved into this from ChoosingBeggars

8. Pot heads

If that ain’t the most inefficient, inconvenient thing I’ve ever seen…

My roommate and I own only two pots. When he cooks with them, he stores any leftovers from his cooking in the fridge in the pots, instead of putting them in containers. from mildlyinfuriating

7. On the tube

On top of that, he rolLED IT THE WRONG WAY.

My roommate has hit new peaks of laziness from mildlyinfuriating

6. Divide and conquer

This is the sort of conversation that might be reasonable in, say, a marriage, but a roommate situation? Nah, man.

Facebook CB wants roommate to pay more rent because she makes more from ChoosingBeggars

5. Self-contained

Just wait ’till he tried to heat those tots up in the microwave.

My roommate doesn’t put his leftovers in containers either. from mildlyinfuriating

4. Hair today, gone tomorrow

Um…why are they so short and curly…

The soap bar is mine, but the hair is not. My roommate better come home bald, or else I’ll have to move from mildlyinfuriating

3. Share the wealth

I’m gonna guess this is in NYC.

Live away roommate from ChoosingBeggars

2. Control freak

Remotes are like $10 brand new, I think you’ll be fine.

My girlfriends roommate refuses to take her TV remote out of the packaging to preserve the "value" of the TV. from mildlyinfuriating

1. Getting panned

Well, now it’s just a war of the wills.

we love shitty roommates from mildlyinfuriating

Love ’em or hate ’em, most of us have to have roommates at some point, because, yanno, the economy was handed to us in ruins. So you might as well learn to laugh about ’em!

What’s the worst roommate story you’ve got?

Every Hotel and Airbnb is Not Created Equal. Here’s the Proof.

You can look at as many pictures as you want on different websites, but the fact is that you never really know what kind of hotel or Airbnb you’re booking until you step foot into the place.

And, as you already know, sometimes the photos just don’t tell the whole story…or maybe they’re not even from the same place that you just booked!

You’re always rolling the dice when you reserve a place to stay, it’s just a fact…and here are some photos from people who ended up in some strange places.

1. Something terrible happened here.

I can just feel it…

Very Expensive Accidents That Are Hard to Believe

These photos sure do remind me of one of my brothers.

Why, you ask? Well, let me tell you…

My older brother used to be a Teamster and he drove a truck for many years for the San Francisco Chronicle. In those years, he had quite a few accidents…and some of them were pretty bad.

Luckily, no one ever got hurt, but I often wonder what the total bill was for all those repairs…

And, on that note, let’s enjoy these very expensive mistakes that people made.

1. Well, let’s just chalk it up to human error.

What are the chances of this happening?
