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.
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 expects a free car.
Can someone please pay my tuition in my room and board?
I use Illinois State University's gold planet if anyone is feeling extra generous.
I would also like a new iPhone because seeing everyone with the latest one is killing my
spirit and hurting my grades.
Please support the world's next greatest philosopher.
If you'd like to help me out more, ask me about my due tear products.
And then someone posted this on Reddit and this person got absolutely trash, so OP posted
this.
To whom I've ever posted my status asking for help on Reddit, thanks for making me cry.
Also, no one has sent me any help in the form of money or guess for the upcoming semester.
I just went on an f-ing iPhone so I could be accepted and not a single f-ing person offered
to buy me a new one. I don't want your poor people, androids. To make things worse, my loan payments
for my business are due, and none of you have even effing inquired about Dutera and the
amazing products I sell. Thanks a lot, buttholes, I hope you all die.
This choosing beggar got a business loan to buy into a pyramid scheme. And they think they're gonna be the world's next great philosopher?
Yeah, fat chance.
On this next post, Opie was trying to give away a winner code and had this experience.
So I had two codes to give away, then I had car troubles.
My anxiety was on Max trying to get these two winner codes to the ladies in need.
I was so upset to hear that one of the ladies said, oh that's the one that I don't like and told her to take it back. I figured anyone
who really needed a coat would have taken anything just to stay warm. I guess looking good as her
priority. Anyways, if anyone knows someone who needs a winner coat, size 2x or 3x, let me know.
It's one of the warmest coats I've ever owned. If not, I'll donate it to one of the places whose supply seat sings to those in need. This kind of made me
not even want to be giving, almost like a slap in the face. But I know the other lady really needed
hers and is happy to be warm this winter. My neighbor decorate for the holidays. It's nice,
but it's been the same decoration for the past 20 years. How can I nicely tell him that we want something else?
So a hobby lobby's return in exchange policy is only 90 days.
That means that after 90 days you're stuck with an item.
I have bought two different pictures from my bathroom and finally decided which one to hang.
I purchased them on September 27th and today is December 30th. That's 94 days
and it's not a seasonal item, and as a matter of fact, they still have two of these pictures
on the floor. I could understand store credit or if it was a seasonal item, but now I'm stuck
with a picture that I don't want? Yes, that's literally how buying things work. You're stuck
with an item that you don't want, deal with it.
Musician needs a woman to drive me around to gigs.
Hi, I'm a musician-slash singer needing an unselfish female to drive me around town
on gigs.
Just friends, I'm black and in my 50s, please respond.
I can also help with gas, somewhat.
What I can't figure out is, why does his person need a woman to drive him around town?
If there's some guy out there who's like, sure, I got nothing better to do with my time
than just burn gas money driving this guy around town.
Then would OP reject him?
It's not enough that he gets a free taxi driver.
He needs a free, female taxi driver.
I'm looking for a free play place for my kids. I refuse to
shell out $500 at home depot for one. It must have A, a slide, B, attached swings, C, a
higher and lower platform, D, ropes a swing from, delivery only please. This Saturday would be
the best day to come to my house, and if you could install it too, I'd treat you to some lemonade.
Also, make sure there are no nails or sharp objects to get hurt my boys.
Thanks in advance!
I have one for you, call me on my cell so we can arrange delivery.
603-521-9950.
Hey, you gave me the wrong number, that's Lose.
That's a hint, honey.
They'll help you with what you need just fine.
I'm reporting you grunt.
On this next post, OPs was trying to sell a PS4 online
and negotiations broke down,
so we blocked this guy's number.
Then OPs received this message.
How dare you block me in the middle of negotiations?
I will report you to the police, you swine.
That PS4 and all the accompanying stuff isn't worth more than $200 and you know it.
You don't need a PS4, you need a psychologist, get help, not a new number.
And down in the comments we have this post from Roxie 61.
I would love to hear that call to the police.
Yes, officer, that swine blocked me in the middle of negotiations.
I want to arrested right now.
Hello?
Hello, officer?
What you swine, you hung up on me?
I want you arrested.
Just a little food for thought.
So I'm a little disheartened on this Veterans Day.
It's supposed to be just that Veterans Day, meaning previously served or
retired in one capacity or another. But while trying to go get lunch for MY Veteran, we were the last
in line because there were some very young active military members ahead of us. We were instructed
to wait for an hour or more. I'm not discrediting active military, but Veterans Day is about that
Veterans. Not, I just listed yesterday folks.
We were able to get a free car wash. Thank God, we have two dogs in the car.
And even then, the only thing that they asked us is if we were a military affiliated.
Not, are you a veteran? Three cars, a very young active military guys were in front of us.
I know they were active because I heard them say so.
Shameful.
I hope every POW from Vietnam War, Korean War, or whatever war I miss person got at least
something because we didn't.
And my veteran served in Ward 2.
Again, this is not discrediting active military.
I just don't think folks fully understand veterans
day? Lost my little brother training to get shipped off. Pray for those who are or have
been in the same boat. The best part about this pose is that OP isn't a veteran. They
keep saying my veteran, which I'm going to assume is just their spouse, so is either an angry
wife talking about their veteran husband or an angry husband talking about their veteran wife?
Either way, the audacity of this person talking about active military being undeserving,
when somehow she's deserving just because her spouse is military.
I have a sneaking suspicion that this is a special brand of Karen.
The, you will address me by my husband's rank, type of Karen.
Hey Adam, I heard you've made mobile apps before.
I was wondering if you could make one for me.
Yeah, I have, and I hate to ask, but I've had some people ask me to do it for free.
You can pay, right?
I charge 20 to 75 bucks an hour to people I know and base on how difficult I think it
is.
I was thinking we could split the profits of the app 5050 so you can make a lot more
money overall.
Sorry, ma'am, I need some guaranteed cash here.
Come on, dude, you should be grateful I'm offering you 5050.
You could even add on your resume that you made my app.
How about this?
You tell me the idea and I make the app and get 100% of the profits.
Then you can put in your resume that you came up with the idea of the app that I made.
F off!
This post highlights one of the most important rules of math.
50% of $0 is still $0.
And how much do you want to bet that this guy's a name app?
I'd be like, yeah, so it's like Facebook, but for dogs.
Or so my idea is Twitter, but like way, way better than Twitter.

Lady, I think I'd rather just work at McDonald's.
And she needs a college degree?
Why on earth does a nanny need a college degree?
And down in the comments, we have this post from Free Hat McCullough.
I never thought these were real, until I saw someone I know posted she needed someone to
watch her kindergarten age son while she was at work.
She offered $40 a week for 6 hours a day, 5 days a week.
She also wanted this magical person to pick up her kid from home and then drop him back
after she got home from work.
People commented that she must have meant $40 per day, which seems low.
She made a second post to clarify that it was, indeed, $40 per week.
Again, people pointed out how low a figure that was, and she said she was hoping that someone
would be able to do this and be a really good friend and help her out.
She also said it never hurts to ask.
Posted to R-slash Advice.
I gave my best friend my old car, now she wants to share the sale because she maintained
it.
My best friend moved from our hometown of Blank and joined me in Blank in February of
2019.
When she came, she was gonna buy a car but I still had my old car, a 2004 Chevy Malibu.
So I offered that she could use it for free to save on costs.
She could use it for as long as she wanted in return when she didn't need it anymore.
She agreed to maintain it while it was in her possession.
Anyways, she secured a new job in Toronto and will be moving in November.
I asked if she wanted to keep the car and she said no, she'll buy one when she gets over there.
So far so good. But then her boyfriend pipes up and says it since she put money into the
car to maintain it, she should be entitled to a share of the money from the car sale when I
do go to sell it. That doesn't sound right to me, but I wanted to ask if that sounds fair or not.
And down in the comments, we have the perfect reply from Demandbymore.
Absolutely.
She can deduct the maintenance cost from the retroactive lease payments of $250 a month.
Let's see, about 20 months of lease payments at $250 a month equals $5,000.
So yeah, go ahead and deduct the maintenance cost
she has receipts for from the 5K and then add back the cost of any insurance that was maintained
on the car. I don't know, maybe 1.5,000 for the nearly two years. Enter lease bill comes out
to around $6,500 minus the document in maintenance costs. Let's settle the bill and then we can talk
about how to share the proceeds of the sale of the car. I guess some people don't know good fortune when it knocks on
their door and slaps them in the face. Actually, it looks like this Reddit user forgot about taxes.
You have to pay property taxes on cars, so that bill should actually be a little bit higher.
Hey, I saw that you're back on the scene again. My band and I are hitting up to a big release,
and my label said they're going to handle
all the promotional side of things.
But I want you to design us a few album covers, we choose which ones we like, and then we'll
get our label to cover the costs.
Thanks for reaching out, I'd love to help you out with that.
I don't have any projects at the moment, so I'd be able to get it done pretty fast.
If you share some more creative details so I could have more of an idea of what you're
looking for, I could get started on some concept art tonight.
Here's a link to one of our songs, just to get the general vibe of it.
The album's called Blank by the way.
It's basically deep house with EDM elements if you can sort that out.
I had a listen and I think I have a good idea of where I want to go with it.
I've got a few ideas that I want to pursue.
But first I got to talk about pricing.
For a large scale
project like this, I charge a 10-year-old deposit fee on top of my other service charges.
For a project like this, I can give you the option of paying me 35-year-old's per hour or
paying me a fixed amount in advance.
Okay, I mean, 35-year-olds is pretty expensive, it runs out to be something like $40. Not
to mention the extra $10 on top of that.
Can we go lower?
I know our label is paying you forward, but I don't want to rob them wool.
I understand.
I try to work efficiently so it's not to have huge time delays or cost over runs.
I can try to limit the amount of time I spend on it if you prefer, maybe giving fewer
album covers to choose from, for example.
But my hourly rate is firm.
Listen, I don't appreciate being treated like complete dirt over here.
My band didn't work tirelessly on our new album for the past nine months to have a disrespected
by some stuck-up soy boy.
So are you gonna offer me the same service for a reduced rate, or am I gonna have to go
give this project to some Indian on Fiverr?
You can take this project wherever you want, I'll take this to R-Slash Choosing Beggars. Man, what gets me about this post is that the Choosing Beggar
is a musician. You'd think that if anyone out there would understand the plight of
fellow artists, it would be another artist. Surely they got people hitting them up all
the time, asking them for free shows or whatever. So where do they get off trying to scam OP out of free
artwork? This choosing beggar isn't just entitled. He's also a selfish hypocrite.
On this next post, OP is developing a free telegram bot and he gets this message,
hey the bot isn't working. Hi thanks for letting me know. It just start working soon.
What a waste of time. This is BS. What's BS?
Are you gonna make it work today or not?
Dude, I'm working on this project alone in my spare time after my day job, and I'm paying
for the server from my own pocket, so all of your 10k users can use it for free without
me asking anything in return.
So you want to play good cop, bad cop?
I'll tell you what, I ain't playing. Bye bye.
Are you serious? It's free. Bye!
They say no good deed goes unpunished. OP for releasing your product for free. That was your punishment.
Hi, I'm looking to trade my Nintendo Switch Lite for an iPad Pro.
I had to go look it up and an Nintendo Switch Lite goes for about $200 and an iPad
Pro goes for about $1000. So beneath that someone appropriately responds, hi, I'm looking
to upgrade my wife to Scarlett Johansson. I want to be your customer but you charge
away too much. I want to be your nail tech but you're way too broke. You see how offensive
my comment was? That's how offensive your
statement was to me. Be mindful that although you may not understand the way a professional
charges, it doesn't necessarily make them too expensive. I can't afford a Mercedes,
but I don't go to the shop and tell them they charge too much. I personally know that
I can't afford it just yet. Again, thank you for your time, and unfortunately, I'm
not accepting any new clients at this time. That was our slash for your time, and unfortunately, I'm not accepting any new clients at this
time.
