I don't know why this made me laugh so hard

 

[SpookyMyers]

I need money

that's what her dad said, not her

But the last sentence said so far, that's what she's probably going to do. This is kind of a hot button issue for me so I'll keep my mouth shut. I will say that I'd rather sell my camera, video gaming shit, tv's, whatever I had to to come up with the deposit, than have members of my family put to sleep.

 

[electrolyte]

Well.. Apparently I didn't get this memo.

Heh. It's come up before that if we want requesters to treat us with respect and realize that we're actual human workers, we should start by talking about ourselves respectfully and using words to point out that we're real workers earning real money. There was one requester awhile back who started calling workers "turkeys" in a really derogatory way (she posted something like "I got these turkeys to work for pennies and it was great" on Twitter). So since then, there's been some sense of, hey, treat us respectfully please, because we're doing real work here and that starts by using language that reminds people we are real workers.

call your local tanf office, ask for emergency assistance. if not, then i'm not sure where you live, but we have a program here called catholic charities. they will pay a bill for you.

Yup. There are definitely programs/options out there.

By the last sentence she probably meant she'll end up losing them as in not be able to pay the $500 to keep them. I really doubt someone would put their dogs down because they can't afford them.

so basically what you're saying is @Lepi needs to be banned before requesters start using the names she posts in her greetings?

Well I guess I'll change my morning greeting, I meant it affectionately but I get it.

It happens a lot. :-/

Oh, I don't know. I rather like being called a foamy blue dish sponge.

Urge to kill rising...rising...

I still like you, so you got that going for you, which ain't much

 

[hyway]

I'm trying to sell 8 cans of formula that my baby didn't use but that will only being in about 80

i meant like do you or your hubby have the latest smart phone that you can sell and step down to an iphone 5 or something like that. Do you have an expensive TV or some other valuable object that you would hate to part with but isn't as important as your dogs

Ah, this does indeed make sense. I have been grossly misinformed, I apologize. I guess getting free marshmallows for signing up was also a lie then...

Did @Jaded eat all of this week's supply of new member marshmallows!?

I'll know what time of day it is but not what kind of animals we collectively are.
