People suck. As soon as you embrace that you can get around to being happily surprised when they don’t.

Real estate here is obnoxiously expensive. 25k might get you 40 square feet.

For an apricot, yes.

For a head of lettuce, even more so.

For a mountain, you have not even begun in years.

For a man, you are just right.

Ohh I know how much CA real estate is. Hence my “offer”.

Point is people are jerks. You get enough of them in a group there are bound to be a few asshats. You found one in the neighborhood. Probably would have been just as upset if it had been turned into a palace.

Good luck with the wife’s new vocation.

Of those 70 years I've acted like an adult in around 30 of them.

Replace “for sale” sign with one that says, “Opening Soon, Strip Club!”

I know a guy who bought his ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD as the houses came up for sale, to keep the riff raff out.

I admit, I like the thinking if not the price. I do generally like my neighbors... but I could easily get a 100 yard underground range going here.

Dealing with people like that I've learned to keep my tact and simply say "Have a nice day sir (or ma'am)", if I'm really irritated, I'll even smile.

I just opened it to complain about the title.

Give it all the attention it is due.

jhe, that's a memorable quote right there!

Q? “Are you interesting in purchasing the house”?
If not, have a nice day > Hang up...

If they call again, I’d tell them something like this-

“Sir, thank you so much for your information; we have adjusted the price drastically. As a result, we immediately received and accepted an offer from a large family from Mexico that will be including several extended family members. They informed me that they will be sleeping in shifts so that they can all work, concentrate on having children, and repair cars in the yard for sale locally. Thanks again for helping make their dream come through”.

If he was making some comments to try to beat down the price, I could somewhat understand. But in this situation, sounds like he's doing it for no reason.

When I saw the title of this thread my first thought was that it was people jumping in to comment about someone’s buying a 40 S&W pistol or—Gasp!—how he cleans his guns.

Well, lemme tell you what I think!

(Blah, blah, blah, blah...)



Some people are just assholes. Not much to be done about them, other than avoiding and evading.

Here's one fur the post count..... I have nothing else to say.
