Whoever posted this photo got p’wned by their own community for assuming their date was poor (or cheap) for saving money on a meal. Someone helpfully pointed out that if you’re getting a free meal…you guessed it – beggars can’t be choosers.

After all, can’t you spring for your own drink if you need one that bad?

Something tells us this woman was going to find a way to ruin her own Christmas no matter what. We have no doubt that being a single mother around the holidays is incredibly difficult and there’s nothing wrong with asking for a deal, but it’s a step too far to demand to get your way.

This Redditor explained that they were “Selling a used iMac for 1200$, woman asks “how low” I would sell it for, or if I’d take 800 and some jewelry she makes.” It didn’t go well.

This fine gentleman believes that a complete stranger should undertake a large project for him, just because. And to top it off, he gets mad when the recipient refuses to steal materials from work in order to do it.

What goes through these people’s minds when they make such a request?!

This one is worth a long scroll just to see how entitled some people can be – truly mindblowing.

The poster explained: “I teach swimming to kids for free even though I was offered money. Mombie demands that I have to teach her son exclusively. And to give her the money offered as I don’t need it.”

She really tops her own bad behavior when she offers to dump her kid in the pool and leave his well-being up to the swim instructor.

This Redditor introduced the story by saying: “I tried to give away two harnesses that no longer fit my dog. Did not go well.”

A choosy beggar not only demanded to have them despite not being the first to contact them but also got mad when they couldn’t be hand delivered.

This one is titled “Friend of my Ex has been using my Netflix details without my knowledge for years. Calls me cheap!”

It’s not uncommon to share a Netflix account, but it’s pretty insane to assume someone you don’t know will keep paying for your entertainment. Be careful who you share those passwords with!

If people are going to demand a discount for no reason and feel entitled to different rules than everyone else, you might as well have a little fun with them, especially if they think you’re a chatbot!

This parent failed to grasp the concept of paid childcare or meeting their financial obligations.

Does 8 hours of babysitting really sound like something you can compensate with ice cream, especially after you promised cash? We’re just glad this babysitter kept the original texts!

Sometimes custom work takes two weeks, no matter how many times you threaten someone. We have to admit the end result felt like some serious karmic justice.

The cluelessness is impressive here. Not only does this potential customer really start off on the wrong foot with a crafter, but then he demands that his custom craft project cost the same amount as an item from Walmart. To top it off, he thinks he shouldn’t have to pay for labor and deserves a “friends and family” discount after being such a jerk.

Do you think these people have someone gotten their way in the past?

I don’t think working for this person is going to teach teens the professional or life skills they need to get by. Just a hunch.

Apparently, if you’re selling something, you’re obligated to respond to inquiries about it 24/7, or at least that’s what this potential buyer believes.

But that’s not even the worst part…

Apparently, this so-called friend is the only person on Earth with bills to pay. So instead of just creating another free e-mail address for a free Hulu trial, they want access to someone else’s account.

Note: That’s not what friends are for.

This person thinks that if they just keep repeating the price they want to pay (instead of the fair price), they’ll get what they want.

The best part is that they really seem to think they got the upper hand here. We wonder how hard they were seething for that whole hour they waited for the delivery.

The workplace can be a goldmine for stories about selfish and entitled behavior, but this really takes the cake.

If you want to pretend someone else’s gifts are yours for the sake of social media, it’s best not to destroy them while you’re at it. We can only hope HR heard about this one.

We can only imagine how many questions you have to get about your prices before you have to laminate an explanation for your customers who think dog grooming should cost the same or less than a human hair cut. We really hope you’re not demanding as much from your hairdresser!

Well, what can we say? It’s best when terrible people leave a paper trail.

Do we even want to know how this one ended?

We’re a little concerned that the saintly person at the bottom of this message is so nice that this poster might think they can continue to get away with this kind of behavior.

We suppose there’s no harm in asking for a bargain, but we think this hopeful buyer wasted their own time offering $150 for a $400 item.

It’s one thing to break into someone’s gaming account, but it’s next level to even try to ask them for more free service after they change their password. Shouldn’t you just be glad you didn’t get caught and punished?

When the universe (or a local restaurant) offers you free beer, just be happy with your free beer (or else pay up for something better).

One suggestion would be to appreciate that your employees are good, stop expecting them to live and breathe their jobs on their off hours, respect them as humans, and understand that they have lives and families.

But we’re curious to know what those other 100+ Quora answers were.

Apparently, telling people they ruined Christmas is a favorite manipulation tactic of the choosy beggar.

This person also seems delusional enough to think that someone would lie about official health certification so they could have a job they weren’t qualified for. That’s not exactly helping people.

The poster explained: “I’m a nursing manager at a healthcare organization. A former acquaintance I haven’t talked to in years reached out in response to my post about looking for help for a CNA/MA position, and then I ruined her Christmas.”

Wow. Well, apparently you don’t need to get to work that bad if you’re begging for a ride but turn one down from someone who is the less hot friend in their profile photo.

Next time take a cab.

This message should have just said “please allow me to waste your time.”

The best part is that when asked for three valid reasons, he still only gives one. Way to lowball your way through life!

Needless to say, no one is getting back their money plus an “inconvenience fee” – we’d all have some extra money in our pockets if those existed.

There’s also a much more civil way to ask for a different tattoo artist if that’s what you really want.

Sometimes people seem so clueless you have to wonder if the conversation is even real.

This is one of those cases.

Ah, yes, the real spirit of Christmas – adding up the value of gifts and demanding more. And to top it off, this gift recipient not only demands a more expensive gift, they ask for cash, and then get hostile.

Do you think they’ll be colleagues much longer?

Yes, how dare they not give you different rent than everyone else just because that’s what you want. How rude!

The classic “write it for the exposure” technique in action. Clearly, the editor didn’t take a close look at the content they were asking someone to give them for free.

We’re kind of curious if this guy really makes money this way. After seeing the behavior people put up with in previous posts, we’re guessing that some still stop and donate.

We’re sure it was a stressful situation, but your misunderstanding can’t be blamed on someone else – especially when you order 60 sushi rolls!

And did she leave her kids there as collateral while she went to the ATM?

This student is missing the point of group work so hard that we can’t even figure out why he’s mad at anyone but himself.

Actually, it does make sense to pay someone for their labor. What doesn’t make sense is why this person thinks they’re entitled to a website for free.

We’re guessing that million dollar idea hasn’t exactly hit the mark yet.

You can’t always get what you want. But sometimes people can convince you to stand in the rain for an hour as retribution for bad behavior.

This is a long thread, but if you get to the end, you’re rewarded with a hilarious story.

I guess this was not the miracle he was looking for. But at least he has a good friend who will offer him a job – eventually, he might appreciate that, right?

That’s what friends are for, right – free meals? Well, unless you’re not really friends and your parents own a restaurant and you’re incredibly rude.

This person giving away an air conditioner manages to maintain a friendly demeanor despite some amazingly clueless behavior.

Wow, what an incredible display of greed! This Redditor reached out to an old friend who needed a laptop for school, but apparently, the offer wasn’t good enough. Not only did the choosy beggar rebuff the request, but they also made an even more outrageous one.

We imagine it will be a very small wedding party with requirements like this.

This unbelievable colleague had minor surgery two weeks ago and still wants co-workers to go get their dinner. Nevermind that they’ll be passing right by a store – that’s not the food they want.

Despite being quoted a price for a logo, this person thinks they can just use it for free for a while until they get some money.

This “friend” just wants to borrow some Aid Pods that the owner is actually using. We can’t imagine why they’re getting mad here.

If you can buy something cheaper in China, just go ahead and do it, but don’t expect it to be the same as custom work.

Threatening to use your disability to blackmail someone is also incredibly inappropriate.

This person is so intent on getting a dog sitter that they’ll track down a student on social media, rudely offer “advice,” criticizes the prices that were clearly visible, and then tries guilting the sitter with a “sick kid” story. To top it off, after the sitter being BEYOND civil to her, she still threatens to post a negative review on her Facebook page.

Sometimes it’s better when people are this clueless over text – then you can just post the whole conversation for people to see.

So, here’s the thing. You’re not a good customer if you just take up space in a busy cafe and bring food in from another restaurant. Just sayin’.

Here’s an idea – if you can’t afford to pay for something, don’t talk about how much other people need the money.

A Redditor explained that her friend “recently graduated University as an Aesthetician and was giving away free makeup products. CB wanted a better brand and for her to deliver, then got mad when she wouldn’t do either.”

Then the choosy beggar had the nerve to call the woman giving away free makeup “entitled.”

Everybody loves a giveaway – except this person, who doesn’t understand the concept and would just like some free cash.

This Redditor had a unique, old vase to sell. Luckily, it sold before they got this clueless message from someone who never managed to learn any manners.

This customer seems to think that just because someone advertises their catering on social media, the food and prep magically cost less.

Hey, if you don’t want to pay the fair price, say thank you for your time and go find someone you can afford.

This Redditor was browsing a Tel Aviv group and found a family looking for cheap accommodations in someone’s home for 7 people. Oh, and they expect whoever hosts them for free to cook for them all as well – for free.

So, a friend needs to borrow a car but gets mad that the owner is using it? Then he calls the owner selfish?

How many friends do you think this person has?

A poster’s car broke down and now they’re mad that no one is offering up theirs or helping them find one at a discount. It’s the epitome of entitlement – fix my problems for me!

The best part is that one generous friend even offers to help buy them a bus pass and another offers to drive them to work if they pay for gas, but they refuse.

Beggars will be choosers, but it won’t get them very far!
