People of the Internet Have No Time for This Beggar, Who Also Wants to Be a Chooser

“Beggars can’t be choosers!”

You’ve surely heard this expression before at some point, which is usually, for some reason, said in a super chipper voice. Like, I’m going to give this to you for FREE so like, DON’T B*TCH about it!

Some people, of course, refuse to learn and abide by society’s rules, even after they get effectively and brilliantly shut down by someone who doesn’t have time for their bullhonky.

Like this person who contacted a crocheter on Instagram about a commission.

Things started badly when he/she gave the person a hard time for taking a vacation and not checking social media, but still, asked what he was looking for in a blanket.

He asked for a blanket made out of expensive fibers in a complicated stitch (of course).

She verified the size (huge) and promised to get back with a price.

Which is when the poop hit the fan, my friends.

He tried the “I can get it here for cheaper!” to no avail. Because fine?

He asked for a price breakdown, which she gave and that was totally reasonable (if you ask me).

She explains again how she reached this number, though if you asked me, she didn’t need to. But he NEEDS IT GUYS.

He tries the sick girlfriend schtick, which also flops, then tries telling her he deserves a friends and family discount bc it “took so long” for her to get back to him.

THEN he tries telling HER what he’s going to pay, which is LESS THAN THE YARN COSTS.

At which point she basically starts laughing in his face.

And totally messing with him for fun (which I 100% support).

Spot on use of Deadpool, y’all. Ryan Reynolds would approve.

He threatens to destroy her business. She doesn’t care.

She doesn’t have a business. She has an actual job and crochets for fun like a normal person who doesn’t put up with crap from random people on the internet.

And ends with an offer that’s double.

This thread is a thing of beauty my friends. It’s just…*chef’s kiss*

Have you ever dealt with someone like this? Did you give them the similar business? I certainly hope so!

Funny Posts About Having a Sh*tty Landlord

When I was going to college, I lived in a total hellhole during my Sophomore year.

The place was owned by a company that ran apartment complexes across town, but my 3-unit building was a special sort of nightmare. (It’s been torn down since then…).

But my landlords were THE WORST. I had to beg and plead with them to get even the smallest thing taken care of and the whole year really sucked.

Have you had a bad landlord before? Then these posts should look very familiar to you…

1. Do it yourself…

Because you really don’t have another choice.

To sum up London renting: my entire kitchen has flooded and my landlord just sent me a YouTube tutorial on how to fix it pic.twitter.com/wGFgpXvt2Z

— sophie thompson (@sophxthompson) June 8, 2018

2. That’s a very good point.

This kind of drives me nuts.

ridiculous that so many landlords don’t allow dogs. i have kept this creature fed and healthy for six years but you’d rather rent to a gamer without pets?

— Brandy Jensen (@BrandyLJensen) April 25, 2019

3. Here’s where she should start.

Sounds like a plan!

Should convicts be allowed to vote? Uh…they are alive and…living in a democracy, right? What is the controversy?

If we want to take away the vote from people whose interests don't align with society at large, let's start with landlords.

— Existential Comics (@existentialcoms) April 24, 2019

4. That’s how it should work.

“Not my domain…”…really nice.

me: my hot water doesn’t work

landlord: not my domain

firelord: nor mine

me: what

waterlord: [rising out of the sink] WHO DARES DISRUPT THE MIGHTY WATERLORD, GOD OF THE 7 SEAS

me: i-i do. My hot water doesn’t work

waterlord: oh shit for real? i'll call the plumber

— Kellen (@captainkalvis) February 5, 2019

5. Don’t do it!

Also, what a weird situation that would be…

My landlord threatened to evict me if i don’t check out his band! has anyone heard of wavves

— ـفـفـفـفـفـفـفـفـفــفــف (@tigerboy420) April 22, 2019

6. Who are you, again?

Well, that’s not a good sign.

i messaged my landlord about our broken washing machine and this is his response pic.twitter.com/6Wm5CfZ9Gl

— seren (@serenxm) April 22, 2019

7. Why are you so OBSESSED with me?

God, get a life!

My landlord is obsessed w rent that was due literally weeks ago ? Move on babe

— cancela lansbury (@gossipbabies) November 9, 2018

8. That’s a little extreme.

I’ll do as I please in the kitchen, thank you very much.

just read a client's contract for them and the landlord has written a clause that bans "spices and oils" in all cooking. imagine thinking you had the right to ban flavour from someone's life

— nic (@nicface) August 28, 2019

9. Come on in!

That’s rude. And I also think that it’s illegal…

Our landlord would just …turn up. Unannounced, and just open bedroom doors and poke about a bit. Just stroll in!

— Ella Delancey (@ellaluciewrites) November 25, 2019

10. Just don’t breathe, okay?

That makes sense…

I had a landlord tell me to stop breathing in my sleep to stop some black mould from growing on the bedroom ceiling #VentYourRent

— Andy “Andrew not Andy” Coates (@AndyKCoates) November 26, 2019

11. Ugh. That’s awful.

Get the hell out of that place.

have to wear a breathing mask in my livingroom to clear it out because after 8 months of living in a flat with damp that turned to mould neither me or louis can breathe properly (he has asthma) and all of us including the cat have come up in rashes #VentYourRent pic.twitter.com/G6cdvwx1Eh

— egg fried nightmare (@kardashoon) November 25, 2019

12. Looks like a dump.

Get a fix-it guy in there, please.

This was peak renting, honestly #VentYourRent pic.twitter.com/X8l1UEK1FJ

— Evie (@evie_faye97) November 25, 2019

Ugh…that brought back some bad memories…

How about you?

Have you ever had to deal with any particularly terrible landlords?

If so, please tell us all about it in the comments.

Thanks in advance!

Posts You’ll Appreciate If You’ve Ever Had a Terrible Landlord

Having a really bad landlord really sucks.

On top of the normal, everyday stresses of life, it adds to the misery and makes coming home something that you dread instead of looking forward to.

And that sucks! Because your house or apartment is supposed to a comfortable place where you can decompress and get away from it all.

Here are some memes about dealing with shitty landlords that you’ll definitely enjoy.

If you’ve had or currently have a bad landlord, we feel your pain…

1. Listen, I’m a baby.

Is that a good enough excuse?

Does this look familiar?

11. Those damn bats!

Keep up the act. It works!

If you’re renting, and your landlord has a no pets policy, you can keep bats as long as you pretend to be mad about it.

— Queer Paranormal (@ParanormalQueer) January 20, 2020

12. For February? Are you kidding me??

That’s not cool.

landlords really want us paying full price for February. FEBRUARY. Lmao grow up.

Former Poor People Shared Things They Have Now That Were Considered Luxury Items Growing up

A writer named Victoria Barrett recently posed a very interesting question to people on Twitter and it started a thread that was very revealing about how people view money and possessions.

Here’s what Barrett asked the Twitter-verse.

Former poor kids: what are some things you have in your house that you *never* had as a kid, things your not-poor friends would never consider luxuries?

— Victoria Barrett (@victoriabwrites) January 20, 2020

Let’s see what people had to say.

1. Barrett offered a few of her own.

Missing the essentials.

A few of mine are Kleenex, band-aids, ziplock bags, and paper towels.

— Victoria Barrett (@victoriabwrites) January 20, 2020

2. A lot of the basics.

Sounds like it was tough.

Air conditioning, dishwasher, disposable stuff like paper towels to clean with instead of rags that were shirts or socks, ice maker, and I would add the tangential luxury of good grocery stores in an easy commute with good produce and international food.

— Lesley Carhart (@hacks4pancakes) January 20, 2020

3. Real veggies.

Not the canned stuff.

Space heater, books not from the library, vegetables not from a can.

— Alan Heathcock (@alanheathcock) January 20, 2020

4. The comfort of certainty.

That must be a relief.

Certainty.
That my car will start.
That my toilet will flush.
That I can refill my meds.
That my card will be accepted.
That no one will come and take it all away.

— Tony @ Setec Astronomy (@tony_bridges_el) January 20, 2020

5. The little things.

They’re pretty important once you have them.

Hand towels. Ziplock bags. Slippers. A robe. Pillow shams. An ironing board. Mini blinds and curtains. https://t.co/6cSwa6WJDl

— Jess Piper (@EnglishTeach07) January 20, 2020

6. Actual tissue paper.

Using old napkins.

this thread is rough.

actual tissue paper was a big thing. i got sick a lot and my nose was constantly scabbed from using mcdonalds napkins. used those as TP too https://t.co/9FOEnxNsUv

— ???? ☆ ??? (@arixdiamond) January 21, 2020

7. Taking care of pets.

Makes her want to cry.

Also, this is not a “thing,” per se, but having pets that you’re able to care for responsibly, spay/neuter, and tend to their veterinary needs. I think back at my childhood and it makes me want to cry.

— Martha (@marthakimes) January 20, 2020

8. Enough food…

Going hungry is no good.

Qtips. Kleenex. Hand soap right next to dish soap. Pillows. Dog treats. Matching socks without holes.
Enough food to last weeks. Shit like that is definitely a tell. The fact I keep a sleeping bag and camp pad in my car, that I bought because I can sleep in it if I need to.

— Lauren Hough -BLM-ACAB (@laurenthehough) January 20, 2020

9. Mismatched stuff.

But not anymore…

Matching sheet sets on the beds and those matching pajama tops and bottoms (instead of wearing a random oversized t-shirt from an event or something as pajamas)

— DevorahBackman (@BackmanDevorah) January 20, 2020

10. The stuff you need.

And that every female should have.

Also, sanitary napkins and tampons. When I was homeless I used to use folded paper towels from public restrooms. Now I can afford to buy extras for my kids and their friends.

— Rene Denfeld (@ReneDenfeld) January 20, 2020

11. For rich folks?

Not exactly…

Stairs. I was convinced that only mansions had more than one floor.

— Stacey Filak (@staceyfilak) January 20, 2020

12. For the kids.

That’s a nice story.

My daughter gets a new, nice Halloween costume each year. Both my wife and I know what it’s like to be the kid who is ashamed of their costume and are borderline insane to make sure she doesn’t.

— KJ BLACKLIVESMATTER (@KevinJosephCMX) January 20, 2020

Money sure is strange, huh?

Now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, tell us what you used to think of as luxury items before you had any money.

We can’t wait to hear your stories!

Laugh at These Memes About Wearing Masks!

Even though the world is totally crazy right now, we still have to remember to laugh, right?

Damn right!

Yes, we have to wear masks for a while when we leave the house and yes, it can be annoying, but just do it! You’re helping yourself, your family and friends, and total strangers every time you put it on.

And we can make fun of ourselves in the meantime!

Let’s have a few laughs and forget about all the awful things happening right now!

1. Can someone explain this?

I need answers!

Photo Credit: Ruin My Week

2. Hey, it works!

Kind of…

Photo Credit: Ruin My Week

3. Play it at home with your family!

It’s fun for everyone!

Photo Credit: Ruin My Week

4. This is not a good look.

So be careful out there, okay?

Photo Credit: Ruin My Week

5. I’m really tired of hearing this kind of stuff.

Just wear the damn thing!

6. It’s my dream, too.

You can really avoid everyone now!

Idk why people are against wearing masks. Masks protect you from coronavirus yes, but they also protect you from running into people you know in public. Add sunglasses and you are literally in disguise. It’s safe to do anything, anywhere, even in your hometown. This is my dream

— Samantha Matt (@SamanthaMatt1) June 21, 2020

7. Just like normal folks do.

We’re all the same, right?

I’m just like you, I put my face mask on one leg at a time

— Swim Jeans (@ShortSleeveSuit) June 21, 2020

8. Yeah, what she said.

Again, just wear it!

I laboured for 7 hours and gave birth in a mask so I think the rest of you can wear one for like 10 minutes to go inside a store to grab a Jamba Juice or whatever you do

— amil (@amil) June 17, 2020

9. Phew! That’s a relief!

Resting Bitch Face no more!

Thanks to masks, my bitch face can finally rest

— Sara K. Runnels (@omgskr) June 25, 2020

10. I agree with this 100%.

It’s a perfect circle.

The Venn diagram of people who won’t wear a mask and people who don’t use their turn signal is a circle.

— Mike Primavera (@primawesome) June 19, 2020

11. It really makes you think…

Admit it, you’ve forgotten it at least once.

If Covid has taught me anything, it’s that it’s incredibly unrealistic that super heroes remember their masks every time they go out.

— Alec James (@alecjamescomedy) June 16, 2020

12. Hahahaha. That’s great.

It’s a perfect fit! Kind of…

Y’all I ordered my mom a Kerry Washington face mask & …. pic.twitter.com/cCLOxmpXJG

— mira (@miralashea) June 23, 2020

13. Damn straight.

Metal heads know what’s up.

If Slipknot can wear a mask for a full set than you can wear a mask for your trip to Target!!

— ?VAL? (@XMaloVidaX) June 25, 2020

14. Just take it and leave.

Things sure have changed, huh?

Walmart before pandemic:
•No hoods, sunglasses or masks. •We need to check your receipt.
•We need to check the contents of your cart at the door.

Walmart after pandemic:
•Must be masked like a felon.
•Take your shit and go. We don’t care if you paid for it.

— Lessons from the Minivan (@FromMinivan) May 17, 2020

Remember to wear your mask when you leave the house, okay?

A little bit goes a long way!

How are you doing these days with all the craziness in the world?

People Who Used to Be Poor Talk About What They Considered Luxuries When They Had No Money

It’s interesting what you consider to be luxuries at different points in your life depending on how much money you have in the bank.

And a recent Twitter thread that was started by a woman named Victoria Barrett showed just how much a lot of people out there have had to overcome in their lives when it came to poverty and having simple material possessions.

This is the question that Barrett posed to people on Twitter.

Former poor kids: what are some things you have in your house that you *never* had as a kid, things your not-poor friends would never consider luxuries?

— Victoria Barrett (@victoriabwrites) January 20, 2020

Let’s take a look at some of the very interesting responses.

1. The real stuff.

It does taste better.

Real cheese (as opposed to government cheese).

Brand name cereal in a box (as opposed to “Tasteeos in the
bag).

New clothes (as opposed to clothes from Goodwill).

Cash that is green (as opposed to food stamps which were blue an orange).

A microwave, a cable box, a computer.

— Mikel Jollett (@Mikel_Jollett) January 20, 2020

2. Never run out.

Always have a back-up.

Back-up supplies, like a full thing of olive oil and maple syrup and sea salt for when the ones I have run out. Tupperware. Shoes that I like. Dishes that are pretty. Neosporin/bandaids/first aid kit. The biggest luxury of all– flowers I bought just because it was my birthday.

— elizabeth kolenda (@partyantithesis) January 20, 2020

3. Take care of those teeth.

You’ll be thankful later in life.

Regular dental appointments

— Granny Weatherwax’s Antifa Meet Up (@dadamstowel) January 20, 2020

4. You know you can get it now.

No more worries.

The ability to buy what we need, when we need it, without having to figure out what other thing has to be cut. If my kid needs clothes, I can buy them without worrying that we might not be able to afford food.

— Sandra Ebejer (@sebejer) January 20, 2020

5. My own space.

It makes a big difference.

Biggest one is my own bedroom. More than one pair of shoes. A library of books. Sparkling water. A desk. My own computer. Skin care products. https://t.co/iSA1bocQU0

— Ace, But My Family Calls Me Ammmmburrrrr (@TheUrbanAce) January 21, 2020

6. Sounds pretty bad.

Roaches are awful.

Cable.
Lack of roaches.

— (@rach_art) January 20, 2020

7. This is huge.

Still have a long way to go on this one.

Healthcare

— defund the police (@SteelyDanRather) January 20, 2020

8. Constant noise.

Silence is golden.

Silence. Growing up it was nothing but noise. Police sirens, gunshots, couples screaming from a domestic violence dispute, people getting jacked for their shoes, drivebys, list goes on. https://t.co/In8OkhGkUr

— Michael Broome (@influential_man) January 21, 2020

9. That’s what wealth means to them.

No more stress.

I just remember watching my mom chew her lip while the grocery store clerk rang up our groceries. She was so stressed and would take things off the belt if we went over. My sister and I view wealth as “getting whatever you want at the grocery store”.

— Stefsopla (@Fontsensitive) January 20, 2020

10. Fancy pants.

Living the good life.

Dishwasher, books, dogs living in the house and not exclusively outside (unfixed), snacks, fridge with ice maker and water dispenser (fancy!).

— Natalie Giarratano (@NattyGiarratano) January 20, 2020

11. The essentials.

You need those basic things.

Toilet paper. Pads. Bras. Plates. A clean house. Running water. Internet. Food. Zip lock bags. Soap. Basic need things basically. Didn’t have a lot of stuff. I missed out on soooo much Because we couldn’t afford it

— Kitty. (@KatHeartwell) January 21, 2020

12. Peace and quiet.

And safety.

Silence—no TV blaring, no one yelling, no babies crying. Peace—no one is angry or stressed because of our home. Safety—no sense of danger or insecurity. Those intangible things stand out more than the material objects.

— Erica Waters (@ELWaters) January 20, 2020
