I hope you didn't help them out with the truck after that. Did you tell them to "take it as it is" ?

This is why I quit giving my stuff away on freecycle. When I first joined, I really wanted to help people out. Then I found out what ingrates these people are. I also read reviews from other people who donated on freecycle and they said the same thing: People are ingrates. You give them something free, they whine about the quality of it. The arrogance of this is too overwhelming for me.

Here are two from the same breeder.

Looking for boys black dress shoes size 7 or 8


If this bitch is due in five months, she still has time to flush it out; it's obvious she can't afford another one.

Keep working more hours, CF people! Millions of breeders depend on us.

These people who compain have a true sense of entitlement. They are so used to handouts that they are no longer grateful for them, they expect them, and they expect them to be just what they want.

I have a former coworker who has a son that is a complete trainwreck. He shacked up with a girl (who is a welfare breeder) who already had 3 kids (all by different fathers). They just had a child of their own 2 months ago that will probably be retarded because of all of the birth complications and the fact that the mom used oxycontin all through her pregnancy. Anyway, my co-worker traveled across country to see her new grandmutant. To be nice she brought some toys and clothes for for the other 3 kids. After 3 days the 3 kids had either broken or lost the new things she bought them. The little turds then had the audacity to ask her to take them shopping for more things since their other new things were ruined. Mind you, they had just met my co-worker 3 days prior. She told them no, thank goodness. I told her she was lucky that they live 2000 miles away so that she wouldn't have to deal with babysitting the kids or being financial drained by their needs. She agreed. She is a PNB. I don't know how her son turned out so badly, both of her daughters are PhD's.

Did you offer to give them double their money back, and let them keep the car too?

When I was younger, in my teens, some of the neighborhood moos (none from our street) would occasionally come around with boxes of kittens or pups to give away. Only one was from a rescued pregnant stray animal. The rest was from these placenta-brains who thought it was so marvelous to let the chyld see the miracle of life. My mom, after going off like an atom bomb would then tell moo next time she dropped a loaf to invite the kids into the delivery room. I actually do not see that in our neighborhood anymore. I don't spend a lot of time outside, so perhaps I just don't see it.

Back to the craigslist entitlement and stupidity.

My sister in law just found out she is having twins.2 boys and a girl. I am trying to help her out and looking for anyone who has boy or girls clothing in good condion and would like them to go to a good home. Also anyone looking to get rid of any swings, toys or other baby items this would be appreciated. I will pick up if not to far.


Tell SIL she probably still has time to take good care of this repugnancy (as in flush it out).

Keep working more hours, CF people! Millions of breeders depend on us.

Married with Rabbits, I always copy the ads exactly as written; that's part of the fun. It shows that there are a lot of stupid people out there begging for stuff.

Keep working more hours, CF people! Millions of breeders depend on us.

Yes, it is confusing and I won't give her anything no matter what the situation is.

Keep working more hours, CF people! Millions of breeders depend on us.

I went to my local Craigslist, and sure as shit it didn't take but 2 seconds to find a good one:

trampoline for adorable children - $50
Reply to:
Date: 2008-07-20, 9:25AM PDT

we are looking for an inexpensive safe trampoline for 2 children 2yrs old and 6yrs old if you have one you don't want please let us know

Gotta love the "adorable" thrown in there. Of course they are!! Isn't 2 yrs a little young to be jumping on a trampoline? And in classic breeder fashion, they want everything...inexpensive AND safe, which of course are often contradictory.

With as sue-happy as people are nowadays, I'd just as soon burn the damn thing rather than risk selling/giving it to someone whose brat breaks its neck and tries to blame me.

Looking for high end girls clothing (north shore)

I am looking to buy higher end girls clothing, neige,kit and lili, dagmar daley,etc... Size 18mo. or larger. Please contact me if you want to set up an appointment for me to see. Thanks for looking!


Now there's a picky fucker. The breeder must see her brat as no more than a fashion accessory.

Keep working more hours, CF people! Millions of breeders depend on us.

These parasites make me sick. They dig themselves into a hole then expect everyone else to bail them out. They get exactly what they deserve.
