This meta text exchange is an update from the guy who posted this exchange online where he got in a row with a treasurer for a charity who couldn't comprehend a payment plan. It's a good case study in miscommunication and pretty dramatic read. Anyway, looks like she discovered his post and well, he responded in pretty typical fashion, including posting the ensuing conversation.

Don't you hate that moment when you post a FOUND ad on craigslist for what you think is someone's house cat, but it ends up being a wild animal that pees all over your house? Is this relatable?

Twitter won't take your racism lying down.

Cayden's mother and grandmother were appalled to see the post from a coworker and wanted to humanize the boy they love. So they started #HisNameIsCayden and Twitter ran with it:
My bro's disability showed me how quick people are to make a joke at the expense of another human. Think before you post. #HisNameIsCayden

Roth's employer was not happy when they discovered the post:
This morning I was disgusted to learn that one of my former employees made several racially charged comments on his...

1000 miles from home, in the middle of nowhere in the wilderness between Sweden and Norway when the aftermarket foot peg of your Harley loses its threads on a bumpy stretch of the road and falls off. Well, nothing that an old roadside post stolen from the state of Sweden and a cargo tie wouldn't fix!
Not sure a kettle cord meets European Union health and safety standards, but who am I, right?
