Every once in a while a divorce attorney hears a real stupid reason for a couple wanting to get a divorce. Sometimes there's a straw that breaks the camel's back, sometimes someone is extremely petty, and other times someone is trying to cook up a legal scheme that would never actually work.
selfish
It's not a sin to want something for cheap or free, but things become clouded when you start ignoring people's effort, try tricking them, get weirdly abusive or display unwarranted pickiness. Prospective employers will demand people have 10 years of experience for an entry level job, strangers will demand to use your Netflix account, moms will lose it over free seashells, and other various entitled folks will make frustrating demands.
Time zones can be a bastard especially when the person you'r dealing with has no concept of empathy. And when the tables were turned, she couldn't even manage to skip happy hour and had to give up. Here's another entitled coworker who demanded a party and took all the leftovers. You can't help but be fascinated by the antics of an entitled Karen, like this one who tried and failed to scam a restaurant.
Sometimes someone asks something so rude, disrespectful or misguided that it hits in a certain way that you can't help but stay salty about it for years. For more cathartic stories of maddening behavior, here are rude and annoying things houseguests did and times people were seriously misjudged.
Sure, nobody's perfect, but sometimes it's clear when more or less effort is being made to be decent to your fellow man. The resulting lack of effort are moments that belong on the garbage barge. Here's just a whole lot of selfish behavior from customers, companies, parents and everywhere in between. Trashiness comes from all walks of life.
They say that that nothing can be certain except death and taxes, but it seems like there's always something trashy going on somewhere. You can trust that someone will be acting selfishly, be it stealing dinner plates for no reason, or leaving a futon on the highway. Trashy moments are a regrettable fact of life.
The world is filled with mostly reasonable people, but poking around are some entitled folks whose foolishness knows no bounds. These demands can come in the form of relationships, money, and even an entitled college slacker who demands their classmate's notes. You can save a lot of energy and frustration by avoiding these entitled folks who need to leave with their attitudes.
Don't let these moments of incredible selfishness get you down, most people are pretty decent. It's just that trashy, antisocial behavior can come from any part of society, and sometimes people's actions are so petty and ridiculously selfish, all you can do is gawk at the trashy moments that belong on garbage island.
Extreme trashiness can arise from every level of society. It can come from the mom who leaves dirty diapers on a McDonald's counter to the rich jerk who parks his super car over four handicapped parking spots. Everywhere there are people, there's some selfish folks who think they can do whatever miserable thing they want. Sometimes humanity is not on its A-game.
Although most people are fine, people aren't gonna be totally great all the time. There are moments of horribly petty selfishness that make you think "bruh, what the hell." There's people stealing coasts for orphans, parking in front of firetrucks, and taking money straight out of tip jars. Just not super classy moves. Trashiness exhibits itself in every part of society, but some trashy moments belong on garbage island. Sometimes humanity is just not on its A-game.
Don't get us wrong, we like meeting new people. It's just that after you've met enough new people, you get a sense of when someone might be dishonest, or potentially meaner than they seem. Here are some dating red flags that made people lose interest immediately.
Lucky for us, most people are basically respectful. When we see outdoor furniture at a restaurant our first instinct isn't to take it all. When we find our seat on an airplane we don't immediately take off our shoes and throw our feet over the chair in front of us. That's most of us. But there are some among us whose selfishness and general lack of decency results in trashy moments that are frankly amazing to see. Extreme trashiness can be found in every level of society, and all walks of life.
It's always good to remind yourself that people are mostly decent. Like, most people just want to get through their day and actually feel a sense of guilt when they inconvenience people. That said, people will have their extremely trashy moments where they steal flowers from random graves and try selling stolen used lingerie on Facebook. All you can do with that kind of selfish trashiness is just look at it in awe.
First of all, let's not deny that this is actually incredible. Usually people ask if they're jerks over something like their disowning their sister for marrying their bully, but damn, 3 feet of sub? Eating over half of a sandwich the height of a man is a tremendous feat that many of us wish we were capable of. That said, eating that much of a sandwich intended to feed a whole party is definitely a selfish move. He was sort of measured about his approach, but that wasn't enough to cover the fact that a whole lot of sandwich went missing.
Selfishness comes in many flavors. Sometimes people get something for free like a ring or an apple watch and they deem it not good enough. Some people want something, like a car, but they'd prefer to have it for free, then throw a tantrum when they can't get it. You wouldn't believe it, but social media is packed with frustrating morons and shameless choosing beggars. They come in the form of complaints, attempted deals, demands and random conversations.
The world is full of choosing beggars who think it's proper procedure to demand stuff for free, then get really upset when they don't get it. They come from all walks of life and end up on message boards and DMs frustrating the living shit out of people trying to sell stuff, make legit art and do other business.
