are you poor?
ing over $10 ing dollars?
So a "friend" of mine owes me money. He came over to my house the other day and soliticted my help. He said there was 10 bucks in it for me if I did 3 loads of laundry and washed all his dishes. I did it as fast as I could, about 2 hours after he asked, it was done. He was running out of tobacco, so I gave him the rest of my tobacco because he's a heavier smoker than I am. A little short on cash around this time of the month, he promised me that he'd have the money to me the next day. This was on Sunday. So, theoretically, by Monday I should have the money.
He says that he didn't get his check on Monday. Okay, I said, and I left it at that. I ask him again today, he says he has his check is here but he needs to get to the bank. Okay, I said, again. Tonight I go over to his apartment and he procedes to tell me that he spent my 10 dollars on something "we (his other friends) got some stuff and he didn't have the 10 dollars to pay me back." So he promises me the ten dollars on Wednesday. I have a busy day tomorrow so I won't find out until 4PM tomorrow if he's lying to me. He tells me to get a job because I don't make enough money. Well, if he'd pay me...
I've given a lot to this guy. He got meals at my apartment at least twice a week for six months last year. He didn't have cable so I let him watch whatever he wanted to watch, let him stay in my apartment from 6AM to 10PM every night and he was the one who left. When I went away on trips, he sometimes would have a key to let himself in. I subsequently found my VCR broken (brand-new). I even financed a tattoo about a year ago and it took him 8 months to get me 70 dollars for it. I even paid for the cream to keep it from becoming infected.
I want this "friend" out of my life. He's a user and he's found that the milk has gone sour on me so he's keeping other people a priority now that I don't have the cash to support his many habits. Because I don't get pissed and angry and curse in his face, he thinks I'm a pushoever. Some "friend."
Has this ever happened to anyone else? Do you do this to other people?
are you poor?
ing over $10 ing dollars?
My friends and I give/borrow into the hundreds without giving it a second thought.
In the end, the tab always balances out.
are you on free wifi right now?
Yes, I'm ing over 10 dollars. It's the difference between me getting food or not this week.
No. Are you? If you want to know so badly, I pay 20 dollars-a-month for internet access.
Wash a lot of your friends dirty underwear and moldy glasses?
Wow, you are poor? Is this friend of yours that got "Heath Ledger"? Sounds like something he would do
Look at it this way, it cost you ten dollars to get rid of him. Right? He's never gonna bother you again. He's never gonna ask you for money again. He's out of your life for 10 dollars. You got off cheap.
Forget about it.
Look at it this way, duplicate posts rock.
And owning a brand new VCR...
what the can you buy for ten dollars? a #2 combo at carls jr? a hot and ready pizza from little cesears? so one meal is all you eat a week?
No, i got some from time warner.
never. they do that themselves but i have a washer and dryer available if they needed it. but they are not morons so they never ask.
I guess you didn't read that he might not eat if he doesn't get the money.
that asshole. Say you will do his laundry and dishes again for another 10. Just throw his clothes away and break his dishes.
That's the ghettoest post I've ever read. We're talking about money for rolling tobacco, a $70 tattoo, a brand new VCR plus future repairs and $10 worth of food? Is this for real, or is this just how it goes in Detroit?

holy i didnt even catch that new vcr part.
good catch bali.
darrinS, My advice is to drop this friend and cut your losses. let his tats get infected and let him walk around in dirty panties. and if he needs ciggs so bad, let him try to knock off a valero corner store and see what happens.
Solid advice.
The life lessons within A Bronx Tale a truly invaluable.
Dude, you can buy a house for $10 in City Proper.
detroit must be a true hole
i saw that eminem movie where a bunch of whitwe trash mingled with black trash to create rap music. they all lived in trailers that even the illegal mexicans in san antonio laugh at.
step ya game up and move and let canada take over that hole known as michigan.
Yeah I've had "friends" that will never talk to me for weeks and then call me just looking for favors.
that guy. Just don't hit em up for anything. Don't take his calls or text him back or anything. If you think there might be something in it for you then answer but if not then say "hold on there's someone on the other line" and don't call him back
1 Loaf of Bread--$1.00
1 Gallon of Milk--$2.00
1 bottle of Cola --$.90 (little indulgence)
6 Frozen Meals--$6.00
I already have tuna fish, all the fixings, lettuce, and tomatoes (from the garden). I have a hamburger helper that I can use the milk with (we'll go meatless).
Darrin, your 'friend' sounds like a piece of , the kind of person I would cut out of my life after being taken advantage of once. There's no use for those kind of people around you, they'll bleed you dry and not think twice about it. Your kindness is a weakness to them. By all means, continue to help people around you that are grateful and caring, but remove the bloodsuckers ASAP.
Oakland County, MI. I'm poor, but I had a surplus of money last year and shared it with him. That's how I got the VCR (and why it's not repaired yet). For the record, I went to private school growing up, I don't have any tattoos, and 10 dollars can get you some staples. I'm just short on cash and I worked for it. I don't have my hand out.
Sorry to laugh at your expense, but that was a funny post, tbh. I'd probably be poor as too if I lived in MI. Sorry about your ty friend.
Gotdamnn, would some rich from this forum please pay pal this clown 20 bux so he can step back and let the club get back to normalcy
cosmic cowboy
or that dentist who gave that fat cholo tuition money
or maybe mouse can suspend his photobucket account for a month
I'm the last person to make fun, since a financial aid office up has left me temporarily broker than I care to admit, but what the ghetto grocery store have you found that sells a gallon of milk for $2.00?
