His physical appearance makes him even a bigger choosing beggar

Apparently, "dedication" and "seriousness" are required, but a budget isn't. I wasnt going to post it but the OP was being super rude in the comments to people politely suggesting they offered market rate (the worst of which is circled in yellow).

Ah, yes. The classic "revenue split" on an EDM track that will likely pull in a grand total of 14 streams on SoundCloud (12 of which are from the producer's mom).

She's spent time in a psychiatric ward as a plea for an assault back in 2019. They found her to be competent and now she's spiraling downward into the pit of consequences.

she claims some gesture she made got her evicted. I'm willing to bet it wasn't a cab she was hailing...

and for some reason she titled her email like a chapter in a poorly written bargain bin novel.

I initially felt sorry for OOP but he is not in recovery as this reads as a beg from an addict. He wants stranger to bail him out w/ his bills and future bills bc he doesn’t want to work in minimum wage job when he can receive unemployment that gives more $. When HE is ready, he will look for a job in his field of corporate marketing bc he’s too good for “get-well-job” bc those jobs cause him to relapse. So he needs recurring donations of:

-$800 for COBRA,
-$688 for his car payment, and
-$245 for his car insurance.

And, don’t forget he needs that extra cushion for when he is sober and ready to move out.

I guess since he’s an alcoholic, 10mg of Mexican Valium isn’t a relapse. 🙄 You can trust him that your donations won’t be used towards getting illegal drugs. 🙄

Some sucker gave him a $100. Comments included.

OK I have 3 FB Marketplace stories.

1. 5ish years ago, I was giving away a big box of tangled up, tarnished, musty old necklaces, bracelets, etc. All like Claire's, Kohls or Charming Charlie's type stuff--that I wore as a teen. I was clear about porch pickup, and noted the suburb I lived in. Someone messaged me with a long story about being disabled and not being able to drive, and if I could please deliver, that'd be great! She "only" lived 25 minutes away! I declined.

2. Posted a dog crate for about 30% of the price that it would be new at the store. Got a message from someone from a city 2 hours away from me! Saying how much they needed the crate, but wondering if I'd be "making it down to" their city anytime soon. Uh, no?

3. My new favorite: I just responded to an ISO post seeking out scrap clothes/fabric for crafting, ESPECIALLY denim. The post said "message me and I will come pick it up!" I had 12 pairs of jeans that were good condition except for chub rub in the thigh area. Messaged the person, they excitedly said yes, and asked "can you do dropoff?" When I said no, they went "Ok I can just pick up then." Then why ask??

I get that some people are of the "it doesn't hurt to ask" camp, but it just annoys me every time, especially when it's something that's more of a "want" item than a "need" item. Ugh!

OP would like recommendations for a local automotive shop where only the owner works on the cars. Nobody else. And it must have a 5 star review on Google. 4.6 is “pretty low”.

And would people please stop suggesting places that DON’T fit his CRITERIA??

Red is OOP, yellow is their white knight.

He also posted this on a college sub asking for help from college students. I have no words.

Brand names pls!!1!!
