Friend: "Hey, guess how much I
(Writer's note: upwards $700)
Me: "Oh let me see it."
Friend: "No, I'm not going to let you see it."
Well fuck you. Seriously. You think you're so cool cause you bought yourself a new phone. Great because I love technology as much as the next guy. But all I want to do is see it, and it's really that hard to let me have me a look at your overpriced phone? Really? Seriously? Go fuck yourself.
Give me one fucking reason why I should drive your cheap ass around town when it's so goddamn hard to let me look at your phone. Give me one fucking reason why I shouldn't toss your ass out in the middle of the street when you make no effort to repay me or show gratitude - not even having a look at your new phone.
Parking downtown - $17 bucks. All I ask for is four fucking dollars from each passenger. Two grown men - one of whom has a paying job, recently switched to a better job; the other one just returning from a 3-week vacation across Asia - "Sorry man, I don't have any cash on me right now. I'll pay you back next time. Oh stop here - we're gonna go play bowling now."
Really? $4? Don't have it? Going to play bowling? How much does a bowling game cost? Around $4? How the flying fuck are you going to brag about how expensive your phone is, when you can't even shell out a few dollars to cover to only partially cover the actual cost of chauffeuring your ass around the city? Fuck both of you, you goddamn pricks.
Now I'm not a money-driven person. That doesn't mean I like spending it, or like to spend it unwisely (occasional indulgences aside). But there's a difference between being cheap and being fair. All I ask is that you be fair. I don't like asking people for money, and sometimes, I'll be the one to pay the difference. But that doesn't mean I am in any way obligated to put up with your bullshit.
Seriously, guys - go fuck yourselves.
Don't get me wrong - on the surface, it's petty. Yes, I admit it. "Oooh he didn't let me look at his new phone." "Ooooh he owes me $4." But like I said before - it's the genuine asshat-ry that REALLY grinds my gears. You can goof around with me, that's fine. Anyone who knows me knows I like to goof around (with the occasional, yet defining explosion). But if you act like a dick to me, then I don't be surprised if I go off on you for being the dillweed that you are.

don't let those people use you, even if you consider them your friends. that's not fair to you, and you're not being petty at all.
