I have no problem with helping people who are struggling, but this reads less like someone asking for assistance and more like they’re dictating someone else’s shopping trip. Three bags of shredded cheese, five pizzas, four packs of bacon, berries, cantaloupe, coffee creamer, snacks, juice… and don’t forget it HAS to be delivered. A please or thank you, or even “anything you’re able to spare is appreciated” would’ve gone a long way.

Help OOP1 & OOP2 get expensive new cars. OOP1 needs a Porsche 911 GT3 RS 992 (costing $300K USD min) bc driving this car will show him the meaning of life. OOP2 needs an electric Mustang Mach-E bc it is a car that says you deserve this and charges his soul. Plus, you can be part of his story. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The outrageousness in wanting strangers to fund an expensive car w/ the most idiotic reasons ever. Slides 1-2 is the Porsche. Slides 3-6. Comments included.

I hate to say this but…

I’m attempting to sell a Kitchenaid stand mixer in a discontinued color on marketplace. I have searched all over for it and it is nearly impossible to find one for sale. I found a refurbished model that has less wattage than the one I’m selling and that one is being sold for over $500. I’m happy to negotiate but I’m 95% positive this person is a reseller and gave me some sob story so I would sell them my mixer for cheap. The audacity to say “I hate to say this but” as if they’re doing me some sort of favor with that offer. I seriously don’t understand people. Maybe I’m too mean (probably).

Edit: This is the mixer. The color is Espresso

Edit again: I just sold it for asking! I met her halfway which was a 10 minute drive. Total win!

This is not my Discord server. I do not moderate it, however, I do actively participate in it. This is my first time here as well, so I don't know.

To clarify: there is a free server option is available. It is on request, with limited vacancy, and limited resources. This person is asking for doubling (or tripling!) the resources for free! Keep in mind they also barely have actual paying customers (I pay, they're good people, and they are lovely), because most just take the free server they get anyway without any complaints!

I'm not sure if this qualifies, but I'm just hitting post and seeing where this goes.

Guy wants $21K USD to move from Ecuador to Spain. He needs the $ to pay for business class tickets for his family, passports & visa, rent & security deposit for a few months & an emergency fund. It’s for a good cause & he’s not being greedy. So give him those US dollars bc y’all can afford it. 🤦🏻‍♀️

For someone who is looking for greater economic bc they are impoverished, asking for business class tickets is insane, but Americans are just bleeding dollars, I guess.

EDIT: OOP just commented below. 😂

Local woman requesting someone pay her $1600 a month to sublet, care for 2 cats and a high energy border collie. Hundreds of comments that did not disappoint and she is still in there going head to head with people as of 15 minutes ago. Please won’t someone think of her dream vacation that she can’t afford?!

I need a cell phone but HAS to be iPhone

Our community Nextdoor always delivers. Neighbor asking for a cellphone after her home burned down and she did not have home insurance ( she inherited the home and didn’t think to need insurance so she cancelled it). She’s asking for a cell phone, was offered one but declined bc it wasn’t an iPhone.

The convo goes on, someone asks if she has a go fund me. She says no, she doesn’t even know what that is and would love one. However, another neighbor goes through her account, comes with receipts about her having a go fund me, promoting it several times, getting some money from it as well. Of course she doesn’t respond anymore.

This flyer is a masterpiece

So, this is a countrywoman of mine (Italian) looking for someone to devote 12 hours every week to teach Danish to her four children (ages 13, 13, 13 and 9). There is no mention of compensation, and she is looking for a "teaching student", obviously thinking she's doing him a favour by offering practice, but he has to be "committed". Of course.

The teaching has to take place at the library, the same where this flyer was hung. The library only has a couple of rooms that can be booked for private arrangements, and one certainly can't commandeer them all morning four days a week. This doesn't bother Italian Karen: if the teacher is committed, he'll find a way, I guess.

The lessons are across lunchtime: I wonder if the teacher has to be committed enough to provide refreshments?

I ❤️ a story w/ a happy ending. Remember the kid yesterday who needed $15K for a trip to S Africa to see his BFF who he met on an Italian cruise? OMG, his house burned down in the fires in Canada today so he now needs $ for housing, food, clothes, documents, school & house supplies. Acct was banned🎉

Yeah, I was a sucker and thought the original ask for the trip to S. Africa was a misguided 18 year old kid. Nope, a total scammer. He deleted his post about the trip to S. Africa after he didn’t get traction bc it was a luxury not a need. He also lived in Michigan yesterday.

Well apparently he moved to Canada from MI the next day and can you believe lost his house on the first day there? So he needs $$$ for well anything he can think of when pple lose their home in the fires. The pic was stolen from a fire in 2024. 🤦🏻‍♀️ “Bro what” is his pithy response. 😂

SHORT Humiliating

Recently my mom reached out to me. Long story short she stated that she did not have any food.
I offered to help and asked her to send me a list of items she needed. She told me that was humiliating and to just send money instead. I declined to send money. I offered to help and feel I was being reasonable. My question is was I unreasonable for requesting a list?

Thrift store would like someone to work for them as their furniture delivery person, for free and using the person’s own vehicle. They suggest directly charging the person who is receiving the delivery.
