11. We had just moved into a new house. An older gentleman – he was 65 and I was 35 at the time – came across the street towards me and stuck out his hand. I shook it and he said “We love new neighbors! As long as they’re white!”

12. She showed up to a little get-together and the person who invited her said that they would be taking bets on who could sit with her for more than 30 minutes. 10 bucks per person, the winner kept the pot. I assumed they were just being rude and planned to tell her of her “friends” plans as soon as she showed up.
She walked in, looked at me, and scoffed, and asked if the grey car outside belonged to me, I said yes. She told me that with the money that car cost, I could have bought something nicer. Ok, well whatever. I went to get a drink and sat to watch the crowd gather around her.
I already didn’t like her but she went on to tell everyone about how she could never date someone who had a crappy credit score or couldn’t pay their vehicle off after buying it, someone who wanted to quit the contest and asked for a cigarette, she opened up her purse and showed everyone a fresh pack of smokes and then told everyone why she doesn’t smoke and why anyone who asks for a cigarette is either too broke to buy them or doesn’t plan ahead of times. The guy asked her for one of her cigarettes, and she said no and put them back in her purse. She talked about all the cars she “bought” basically her parents would co-sign for her and pay the car off to build her credit and she would give them a few thousand to pay them back.
She was nuts and wouldn’t stop talking. I disliked her but was also fascinated with her, she was super weird.
Update: So I have gotten a few questions about this girl and that night. Also, who is Gina?
There was something like 15-20 people there and most entered the “contest” I think the pot got up to 100-120 bucks.
The winner was just some guy who I didn’t know, he spent the money getting everyone McDonald’s and beer, so he was pretty cool.
She was about 22-23, she had just finished getting her High School Diploma because she had dropped out to “make money” according to her, I think she sold some milkshake things and fitness plans with some MLM.
For those wondering what happened to her, I’m not 100% what happened to her, she wasn’t my friend but she did show up to a few parties I was at and she seemed calmer she used to bring her own bottle of liquor and wouldn’t share which was kind of funny because on one occasion they caught her filling her bottle with a bottle of jack that someone had brought and left on the kitchen counter, but she swore that all she drank was Hennessey and Fireball.

15. Asked a guy what he does at a business networking event.
“Well I’m a Chiropractor but looking to get out.”
“how come?”
“All these me to accusations. In another State I had 3 of them. Good thing none of them went to the bar.”

16. Started at a new job, went for a team dinner and the very first thing he did was talk about how bad the dating scene was in the city and how “ugly” all the women are…
Dating scene was absolutely fine btw, I pull out of the conversation and then he just continues to ramble on about how smart he is vs everyone else.. safe to say I’ve been avoiding him since.

17. Years ago, me and my ex-husband went to see a movie with an older colleague of his. Before the movie we had dinner at like a chain restaurant/steakhouse type place, staff on the floor was all 20ish. I never met this man before but in the first few minutes of sitting down and looking at the menu he very confidently told us how he came there a lot and flirted with the female staff because “they love the attention”. The best part? His daughter worked there. All I could think was how I would literally cringe myself through the floor if I was 20 and my 50yo dad came into my place of work and perved on my co-workers because he didn’t understand that they only put up with him ’cause they are paid to do so.

18. Parent of one of my kids friends at school. Said there was a mouse in their house and his wife wanted him to kill it but he didn’t want to kill any creatures – he wants to make friends with them instead. But wife insisted so he threw his shoe at it and eventually managed to hit it, but it wasn’t dead, so he threw his shoe at it another 4 times. It still wasn’t dead so he poured boiling water over it to kill it. It still didn’t die so he poured boiling water over it again. It STILL wasn’t dead so he decided to leave it alone in the hopes that it would peacefully pass away.
The logic of being too squeamish to kill something, and instead decide to torture it to death slowly in the most agonisingly painful way absolutely blew my mind.

20. “We need to start doing…”
It was the assistant my work at the time transfered to work with me… literally first minute he was telling me how to fix my site. The one he knew next to nothing about.
