'I woke up to over 50 texts': 22-year-old walks out of surprise party thrown by their family members after insisting they didn't want a celebration

The internet is totally divided: did this person handle their surprise party the right way, or were they totally out of line? It all depends who you ask, according to the commenters on this story from u/noparty4me88. As you can guess from their username, this person does not like parties for themself. They mention that they didn't ever have parties for their own birthdays, not even the major birthdays that often get large celebrations like their sweet 16 or their 21st. Some people just don't li…

Employee lends coworker money, only for coworker to flood her with texts asking for more favors, employee blocks them in response: ‘No one in management will do anything’

We've all made the mistake of lending money to someone we shouldn't have. Funnily enough, the best-case scenario when we lend a bad individual money, is that they simply never pay you back. The worst-case scenario is something like what happened to the employee here. This employee shared on Twitter a series of texts between her and a coworker after she made the mistake of lending that coworker some money. Instead of it being a simple interaction of the money and a simple ‘thank you', the entire…

'I am having counsel review the lease': Landlord denies sending former tenant their security deposit in full over their cat smell, tenant begins legal battle

There's nothing like a bitter landlord-tenant dispute to make you feel better about your living situation (if you can). The business of returning one's security deposit in full is almost always a stressful process. You may try your best to keep your apartment in perfect living condition, but things happen over time and your property management may be ruthless in their decision-making. Now, there are ways in which you can be lucky and get out of conflict. A friend of mine had tried their best to…

'Consider this a warning [...] oops sorry, wrong person': Top 20+ baffling text messages and wrong numbers

Ironically, it turns our that texting can lead to some wild miscommunication… If you're a living, breathing human in 2024, you likely have an anecdote of your own that further proves this point. As for me, I cannot say that my text history has been all gone according to plan. I distinctly remember the terror I felt when I sent photos of a crush to that person and tried to cover it up to no avail. I remember texting an old friend who was visiting that I was dreading getting brunch with them, thi…

‘Dude, I’m already here, are you kidding me': Customer wastes 3 hours of time and gas after arriving at car seller's home only to be told van is already sold

One seller wasted 3 hours of his customer's time and gas money… Why? Who knows, people are awful, especially those selling on Marketplace.

Basically, OP had seen a small van for a reasonable price online, and wanted to buy it in order to convert it. They reached out to the seller, telling them they were interested in buying the van and would like to come see it. All seemed to be going well, as the seller…

'This can't be real': Lawn care business owner puts entitled client in her place

One business owner was referred to a potential customer who has an entitled attitude. Mess with a professional and find out what happens, lady! If your business is a big chain, customers might flock to you. But for smaller businesses with just one or two employees, word of mouth can keep your company alive. Especially in a business like lawn care, having a referral from someone who appreciated your work goes a long way. It's a great compliment to know you made someone's front yard look so nice…

‘You could have programmed the correct number, but you didn’t': Woman gets back at person who fails to program correct number into phone while inquiring about horse

Sometimes you punch in a number on your phone to call someone, and a total stranger ends up on the other line. You called the wrong number, no big deal. Then you do it again, and again… and again. Until the person on the other side is wondering why it's so hard to call the RIGHT number. It's a fair question. This woman was contacted via text 5 times over the span of a year and a half, and it was always the same person inquiring about the same thing… A horse. The woman, OP, had no idea what they…

15+ Texts People Should Not Have Sent

We have all had a regrettable texting moment, haven’t we? It could have been an impulsive moment of passion, a complete mistake, or a total misread of the situation. While you sit there and pretend that this kind of thing has not happened to you, I’ll chime in and admit that it’s happened to me on multiple occasions. I once was on my way to brunch with an ex-friend I didn’t like and texted my other friends that I was fully not looking forward to it. Except I didn’t text my other friends that…I…

'Scams don't work on me': Marketplace scammer gets called out, apologizes, asks the target for money

If, at first, you don't succeed… tell a sob story and beg your target for cash instead. This is the scammer's creed—at the first sign of their scam going sideways, they'll crumple like paper and resort to tearful begging instead. That, or get overwhelmingly aggressive. The begging is really just the continuation of the same initial scam, and just because you were wary and caught them out on the initial attempt doesn't mean you won't be suckered in by the crocodile tears that follow. Commenters…
