On the topic of money:
11 years ago
Moolah, the green cheese, fat stacks of paperbacks, bundles of benjamins, paper happiness, chunks of cha-ching, GREED IN THE FLESH.
You know what I'm talkin about, that sweet little numerical value that allows us to trade arbitrary amounts of paper in exchange for goods, or sometimes not even paper when you're using digital transactions or e-currency, essentially a worthless item given importance because someone somewhere said so.
Now, the point of this journal is to say my piece on money and why I'm so sick and tired of people begging for cash, not people that are fundraising for a cause (even I don't personally rally for said cause), but people that have shit like Dreamies and Eerays that a month later are in desperate need for money. Shit happens, we all know that so unexpected financial binds are perfectly fine, who hasn't spent a large sum of money on something they enjoyed only to have a relative die in a horrendous car crash the next month so they suddenly really need that money back to pay for the funeral, am I right? We've all been there before, that's fine and dandy, I don't see an issue with that since life just chucked you a shitty lemon when you were expecting a hairless peach, bad things happen to everyone.
No, this is for people that spend that money on something trivial when they know full well they'll need the money for something else soon enough and spend the money anyways, the kind of person that just expects a couple hundred bucks to be dumped in their lap in one night. The kind of person that has a couple high-end adoptable designs and is mysteriously in a money bind the next month, the kind of bind where they need a handful of smackaroos in a single night or else they're fucked, the kind of person that knows full well that they'll be needing the money but just doesn't save for it.
If you are the kind of person to do that I just frankly don't feel like I can respect you, plan ahead, be smart with your money, don't get pissy when people don't blow their monetary wads all over your face whenever you need it, it's all pretty simple shit and yet there are countless people that can't do it.
It's just disgusting to see that behavior, I like a lot of people, I'm a really nice person, but that is not something I can stomach.
