Starting point is 00:00:00 Now streaming on Paramount Plus. Hey baby, I hear the blues. It's calling, toss salads, and scrambled eggs. Y'all know how this goes. And maybe I seem a bit confused. Yeah, maybe. But I got you picked. Ha-ha-ha.
Starting point is 00:00:17 But I don't know what to do with those toss salads and scrambled eggs. Kelsey Grammer returns in Frazier. Life's calling again. New series now streaming on Paramount Plus. Welcome to R-Slash, a podcast where I read the best post from across Reddit. Today's subreddit is R-Slash Choosing Beggars, where someone asks for a free house. This next post is a Twitter post from a journalist. A woman emailed me to say that she doesn't subscribe to my newspaper, but can I please copy and paste all of my columns about homelessness for her because
Starting point is 00:00:49 she wants to read them? I wonder if she demands free groceries when she goes to Safeway. Hashtag support local journalism. Then OP ads. The best part was she also said that she'd accept hard copies of my columns mailed to her. That sounds like a good use of my time and money. And down in the comments, we have this story from Dinell. I worked for a newspaper for 22 years. About once or twice a week, someone would call to ask for a copy of a newspaper if they are one of their family members appeared in it. I always mailed it to them for free as a kindness.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Often multiple copies. Never. Not once. Did anyone ever call or email me back after receiving them to say thank Never. Not once. Did anyone ever call our email me back after receiving them to say thank you? Not once. This next post was posted to our slash unpopular opinions. Don't buy the random assortment of donuts
Starting point is 00:01:35 if you're bringing donuts for people. It's always nice when people bring in a box of donuts and you get real excited to open the lid and have one. Something that's always driven me nuts is when people bring donuts to work or an event and it's a complete random assortment of donuts and you have no idea what they are. More often than not, they don't all get eaten and then you have to throw them away. Like, I really appreciate you for spending your own money going out of your way to get them for everyone, but dang it, get normal
Starting point is 00:02:02 donuts! Glazed, powdered, chocolate, cream filling, something you know that everyone eats. I literally walked into work to a donut's box, and it had a random filling donut with vanilla toppings sprinkled with Captain Crunch and Special Case cereal. Like, I'm not trying to sound ungrateful, but if you're gonna spend your money, spend money on food that people will actually eat. Even for choosing beggars logic, this doesn't make any sense. The logical thing to do is to get a random assortment
Starting point is 00:02:31 of donuts, because if you just get, you know, an entire dozen of chocolate donuts, then there's bound to be that one person who doesn't like chocolate, and then they get pissed off. At least with a random assortment, each person can pick the donut they like, right? And also down in the comments, we have this story from Sean Perfect. So this reminds me of something that happened to me.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I was leaving my first job, and I bought a cake for the team. Then one of my co-workers approached me. What about me? What about you? I'm a vegan. Okay. Where's my cake? I did a nice thing for the office.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I'm not making you eat it. You should be more considerate. This is my last day and I'll probably never see you again, so f off. On this next post, OP is trying to sell a collection of games on Facebook Marketplace. Hey OP, I was just wondering what price you have for everything made. I have connections all over the country. I'm a collector. Collection will not be a problem if we can find the right price. My contacts will pay you cash on collection. Could you
Starting point is 00:03:32 provide me with some information on all the products please? Um, hello. I'm looking for 260 pounds for everything pal. If I sold everything on eBay individually it'd come out to 435 pounds so selling them together at 260 is a deal. Being a collector of 17 years I know my stuff and I know the price is too. The final price will depend on the info you give me because I price the items at around 250 pounds if they're complete and have a 7 out of 10 rating. I'm sure you're aware of the Chinese on eBay controlling prices. That's why if you look under sold, you'll see the same game sold multiple
Starting point is 00:04:10 times. I'll pass then. The price has gone through the roof recently. As I said, I can get around 400 pounds of Iceles individually on eBay. That includes damages and fees. I'll do 100 pounds if they're in average condition, and fifty if they're all perfect and complete. Prices are controlled by the Chinese lol. You won't get what you want because of the Chinese lol. I've already had higher offers so no things. Have a good evening. Haha. Yes. Because if you had higher offers, you would have sold. There's this thing called the Rona. it's called Nationwide Lockdowns. I've had offers, but I can't physically sell it until the lockdown is over. Get over yourself, man.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Balox, as if the flu is going to stop you selling... F-U! On this next post, OP is selling an iPhone for $200. I would like to buy your Rose Gold iPhone 7 128GB Unlocked for $200. I would like to buy your rose-gold iPhone 7 128GB unlocked for $80. I'll meet you at the circus since apparently you think that I'm an f-ing clown. The phone is literally an iPhone 6. That generation is old as hell. It's literally the generation after the iPhone 5, which they don't even make anymore, so it shouldn't be more than $80. You're smoking crack if you think it should be. So I will meet you at the circus because you think I'm the clown, not you the clown.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Me the clown! First, you might want to read the title again, honey. It's an iPhone 7, not 6. Second, I already have a buyer for $180. Three, if the phone is so old and terrible, why would you want to buy it? Still, an iPhone 7 shouldn't be that much. It's an older generation, your buyer is paying too much for a phone that's not worth that much. You're scamming them out of more money than the phone is worth.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Why would you do that you awful human being? Why would you charge more than it's worth? I feel sorry that your mother raised you this way. I'll make sure to let my other buyer know that I'm scamming them. Thanks, Alissa. And then down in the comments, we have this story from Penny of the Nerds. We were selling a buck stove and had someone appraise it. We threw it up on offer up. This young guy comes in and starts telling me that it was only worth a quarter of what we were asking. That we'd never get the money for it, etc. Then he makes the genius move of saying, I just sold two of those, so I know what there were. I said, if you just sold two, why didn't you keep them instead of buying this one?
Starting point is 00:06:37 It couldn't possibly be because you want to lo-ball me on something that we had to praise and then resell it, could it? We never heard from that clown again. On this next post, OP is selling two lip glosses for $11. I would love this. They smell wonderful, smiley face. I would love to have this, but I'm battling stage 4 lymphoma cancer, and I'm trying hard to make myself feel better, but I'm just very embarrassed and struggling financially. Would you please, please, please accept any less? I love this post, Aaron, in the comments, from not just a pebble.
Starting point is 00:07:17 I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning I break my legs, and every afternoon I break my arms. At night, I lie awake and agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep and beneath that clownfish super flies. And this lip gloss would make everything better.

Selling Ace's laptop for $350. $200? $300.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I'm talking to someone else regarding another laptop just like this for $210. Okay, and buy theirs then. Low $235? Down in the comments, we have this story from PM Your Low Hangers. I had a guy wanting to buy a practically new jacket from me, brand name, kinda pricey. This was back when Craigslist was newer in the go-to place for selling stuff, and posting your phone number publicly wasn't that big of a deal yet. So he texted me and lowballed me with an offer that was like half of my asking price.
Starting point is 00:09:02 I hadn't had many bites yet, so I gave him the courtesy of saying no thanks. Then I had a guy almost immediately after him email me and offer me about three quarters of my asking price. It was still a bit low for what I wanted, so I responded by saying sorry at my lowest price is such and such. He argues that the jacket is from the previous generation, and therefore not worth what I'm asking. He went on to say that he often sees him selling for approximately half of what I was asking for. I knew this was a lie since I'd done my research and I knew what they were selling for. So I suggested that he just buy one of those, but he was apparently only interested in the specific color
Starting point is 00:09:38 that my jacket was. So I'm kind of wavering at this point. I hate selling stuff and I just want it gone. So I tell him that he's got a deal and I asking at this point. I hate selling stuff and I just want it gone. So I tell him that he's got a deal and I ask for his phone number. I go to any of his phone number in my phone and I find that it matches the first guy who texted me. He was trying to play me from different angles to get my price down. I called him out on it and he blew up. Like he could have been candid and put a spin on it like he wasn't trying to hide anything
Starting point is 00:10:04 and he just wanted to ask again by email. I mean, it was vague enough that I would have given him the benefit of the doubt, but he went off on a tangent about how we're men. And we should settle this right now, and the jacket is rightfully his blah blah blah. I should point out that I hadn't even said at this point that the deal was off. This was just all on him exploding, lol. I ended up ignoring him and just gave the jacket to one of my friends. On this next post, OP is selling a house and
Starting point is 00:10:30 he gets this text message. How much is the house to buy? It's $299,000. Could we give $200 a month for it until it's completely paid off? We have a one month old baby. And the way that she's making this offer, it sounds like she's offering 0% interest too. So, if OP actually accepts this offer, then it will take this choosing beggar 125 years to pay off this house. The one month old baby won't even be alive to see this house getting paid off. The baby's descendants will still have to pay that mortgage off.
Starting point is 00:11:10 And then down in the comments, we have this contribution from iMoscor.com. I tried to sell my house with a realtor a few years ago. This was the worst offer. A guy wanted to rent my house for one year at a hundred bucks a week. At the end of that year, he wanted the option to buy the house and he wanted all of his rent payments that year to count as a down payment. Then, if he decided not to buy, we would refund him all the rent money that he paid that last year. He didn't try to sell me a sob story or anything. He just got angry that we don't know how normal business is done. Does this guy honestly think that anyone would accept that offer?
Starting point is 00:11:48 If you could just get your rent refunded at the end of every year if you decided not to buy, then nobody would ever pay rent. Because every year they would just live in a place for a year, get refunded at the end, and then move and do it all over again. Selling 1-3 Hill Season 3 DVD set for $6. What condition are those DVDs in? Good, I've used them a few times. Would you be willing to trade mine for yours? Like, trade the same product? Yes, please. That is not something that I'd be willing to do. Oh, I was just asking. I was asking because mine is missing disc 2, and I can't find them for a reasonable price.
Starting point is 00:12:25 asking because mine is missing disc 2 and I can't find them for a reasonable price. On this next post, someone posts on Facebook warning, four horses are running loose along Blank Road, they're hitting towards the high school, and then a choosing beggar replies, please put as much info as possible on a post like this, as you've had a lot of us horse owners totally panicked. I just left work in a complete stress having had two people message me and I couldn't find this post as he that I had four. I only have two horses. It would be helpful to know if they're tacked up. That way, we would know that it must be horses who are outriding and not in a field grazing. Also, we could use other impose such as
Starting point is 00:13:00 color and size. You could just say large horse or small pony, that's fine for someone who knows nothing about horses. But it may help when people are trying to establish if it could be theirs. Thank you, not having a go at you, just trying to prevent a lot of stress. I believe the horses are now hitting home with riders though, which is great news. And then OP replies, what else would you like me to say it's all the information I had? It's all that I saw. I'll keep to myself in the future. Why am I not surprised by your response?
Starting point is 00:13:33 Why am I not surprised by yours? This reminds me of that old joke. How do you know if someone's a horse girl? Don't worry, she'll tell you. Requirements to be my girlfriend virgin 2.0. One must have decent boobs. Two must have a muscular butt. Three must have abs.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Four must have nice hair. Five must work out regularly. Six must have no debt. Seven must have no bad tattoos. Eight must have no kids. Nine must be between 18 to 40. 10. Must have thick muscle thighs. 11. Must be pretty.
Starting point is 00:14:12 12. Cannot have guy friends. 13. I have to check your phone once a week. 14. I must be present when you hang out with your girlfriends and no girls nights out. 15. Must have a decent job. 16 must do everything I say. 17 has to call me every day. 18 must cook me dinner five nights a week.
Starting point is 00:14:35 19 must come with me on dates. 20 must do nice things for me. 21 must give me a nice gift at least once a month. 22 having kids must be an option. 23. Must help around the house. Down in the comments, I like this post from OpenGuino. This isn't a red flag, this is a communist revolution. Also, my favorite thing about this post is of all the things this guy prioritizes, number
Starting point is 00:15:02 10 on that list. So so top 10 most important is thick muscle thighs. So with that at number 10, with that at number 10, and a muscular butt at number 2, this guy must be looking for some girl who can crack a walnut with her butt cheeks.

You get one hour of one-on-one teaching, hands-on learning, and a write-up within one week of the end of the lesson. Hi, I love that you have a plane and write-up after just one lesson. I had a trainer for two months and I never got anything close to that. I finally had to let her go this
Starting point is 00:15:42 week. I have a three-year- year old 90 pound labrador. He's a lot to handle. The main issue is how crazy he gets when he greets people, so I can't have anyone over or I have to put him in the car. So, I'm on social security disability insurance and only pull in $900 a month. So, do you do a sliding scale based on income? I'm just gonna ask, and it's okay if it's a no. What you considered doing the training for $30? It never hurts to ask. No response, that's not a good sign of integrity. Actually Martha, I just got home from work. I've been at work all day. I'd really love to help you out with your lab, but I have to stay true to my prices. I'm sorry. Wow! That says a lot. You're more about money than really being serious about animals.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Shame on you, especially in these times. It's best if you don't respond. Because I have to work to live. I work for someone else to make money. I'm not all about money at all. I'm more about making a living and surviving. No, about not having a sliding scale. Because maybe COVID took away someone's job? Meaning me. Forget it, sorry for whatever is my fault. I have to move on. If you want to spin it that way, you clearly said it's okay if it's a no. So it's a no from me. Thank you for asking. Yeah, that's clearly the best way to spin it. I can tell you're an effing grunt.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Don't respond, or I'll have to get real nasty. I don't want to trash on people who are on disability insurance because if you can't work, you can't work. But this lady is not working and is getting money for not working and this lady is trashing on someone who is working for an income? Also, I have a sneaking suspicion that this choosing beggar didn't fire her last trainer. I bet that trainer pieced out of there really quickly.
