ten songs i’m obsessed with at the moment

i’m so sorry, this is all pokémon soundtrack stuff... because i just got back into the games and literally logged 12 hours on pokemon super mystery dungeon within the past 3 days so like... i really don’t know what to tell you...

(tagged by @lo-tor!)

1. Main Theme - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

god i think one of my favorite things to listen to is orchestral fanfare and flourishes stuff like this. it’s just!! it’s heroic and epic. you listen to it and it’s like a dawn. a big boom on a new horizon of adventure. i love it so much.

also! the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky version is... fucking beautiful... i will be arranging this... mark my fucking words. i arranged undertale i’ll arrange this too

2. It Is What It Is - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

this is just playful as fuck. the whole smd soundtrack is just so playful, i usually giggle when i listen to certain songs on it. i think it’s really fitting considering it’s story is told from a very childlike perspective!! this is the first game i’ve ever played where i felt like a kid again, not a teen playing a kid’s game. it reminded me of the first time i ever picked up a pokemon book or played pokemon ranger! it’s so fun to listen to, especially this track. it’s just a lot of ‘well... that’s what it is! let’s roll with it!’ this The Children of Serene Village and Whoa! never fail to make me smile. they’re so bouncy!!

side note!! bouncy is one of my favorite words!

also i’m putting What to Do here too bc... IT BELONGS

3. Over the Mountain - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

this song is just really peaceful. it’s just like the title says! just... even if you’ve never played pokemon just close your eyes and listen to it OKAY?

4. Title Screen - Pokemon Ranger Shadows of Almia

say what you want about the ranger games!! but if it’s anything bad my reply will be fuck you fuck you fuck you and fuck YOU!! shadows of almia was my first pokemon game ever. i think i was in the 3rd grade and my dad took me to best buy so we could get a new printer. my dad is... not nearly as attentive as my mom, so he just let me be alone as long as i stayed in the ds games section.

now, i’ve been in love with pokemon since the first grade when i found my brother’s hand book with the original 151 pokemon in it. i used to read that book at night bc if i read it in the day and my brother saw me he’d KILL me. i’d make up stories about the pokemon in their even though i’d never seen the games or show before. i only knew about it from the cards my brother had (he had way more yugioh cards though, but i never got into that really) and this book. i loved it so much, you have no idea.

anyways, as a kid i wasnt really allowed to do much by myself so i actually had no idea the pokemon games existed, but there i was, 8 years and standing in front of the ds game case for a solid 15 minutes, just staring at the little box. i was in love. it was new at the time, and there were the sinnoh pokemon on it and i’d never seen them before! i’d memorized all the names of the 151, and now there were MORE?? i was blown away.

i begged my dad to buy it for me and promised him i’d get him the money from home for it. it’s no secret that i’m my dad’s favorite (sorry bro, but even you admit this is true), so he did, and i kept my promise. as soon as i got home i broke open the tin i kept my birthday money in and repaid my dad the $25. then... i put it in my ds cartridge and became a pokemon ranger. i was hooked.

i guess you can say ever since then i’ve been really into the side games over the main ones. my first main one was platinum and i got it for my birthday that year. i’ve played the shit out of it, and i love my infernape to bits and pieces. the sinnoh region will always hold a special place in my heart, but it’ll never top the breath taking adventure i experienced in almia. god i love THAT FUCKING GAME!!! i love pokemon ranger shadows of almia and i loved guardian signs and i’m so upset they never made a fourth.

other good ranger songs: the forest theme, the water theme, the vottanage theme, almia restored

5. Partner’s Theme - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

shut the FUCK UP. as much as i hate how much trouble riolu gets me into, i’d fucking Die for him. do not insult my son or you will perish at my hand.

also here it is as a music box!!!

6. No Frustration No Giving Up! and With Big Hearted Kindness - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon

okay, so if you’ve been here for a while you’ll know that some of the most common compliments i receive are about my compassion and my resilience/bravery. i’m not afraid to admit those are my best qualities and... im sorry but i’d be lying if i didn’t say it really hit me that the traits your partner really displays are resilience and kindness. i think those are two of the most under appreciated characteristics we really need today. people are trained to fear failure and despise set backs, but in the game you’re forced to accept them and move forward despite them. it’s actually a really common theme in pokemon and... i love it. lovE THESE FUCKING GAMES!!

in the game you’re also called to fight the Emissary of Darkness, a fucking god pokemon, for these two shit heads who basically bully you and your friends all the fucking time. you’re forced to accept people who do bad things as real people and to move on and not to characterize them on their actions. i love these morals. that’s what big hearted kindness is!! fuck me up!

7. On the Beach at Dusk - Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time and Darkness and Sky

oh god... i cry when i hear this theme. it’s so fucking beautiful and it carries so many goddamn memories. you meet your best friend with this theme. you come back to the dead to this theme. it’s just... it’s heart breaking and also just so healing to listen to.

this and goodnight :’)

8. In The Hands of Fate - Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time and Darkness and Sky

i also cry with this one... fellow players won’t need a reason

10. Don’t Want to Say Goodbye - Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time and Darkness and Sky

IM LITERALLY BAWLING AS WE SPEAK

what are you favorite top degrassi seasons?

This question is so difficult!! I’m serious I spent an hour writing down all the seasons and weighing all the pro’s and con’s of each season to figure out the order I would put these in. I know you didn’t ask me to rank all the seasons and tell you why I think that… but I am… because I feel like it… so let’s move from the worst to the best shall we?

18. Season 11 - I hated it the first time I watched it. I hated it the second time I watched it. I don’t plan on sitting through the whole thing ever again. I loved the introduction of Zaya and that is about it. I didn’t ship anything. This was the season that made me stop shipping Eclare which I literally used to OTP so hard.

17. Season 13 - This was the only season that I ever completely stopped watching because I was so bored. I was still nursing my heartbreak over losing Cam and then all of a sudden they ripped Adam from me too. After that I tried to keep up but I just didn’t really care because it hurt too much. Maya was moving on with Miles (which I still don’t get the appeal) and Zig was all but forgotten up until halfway through. The Paris plot was so stupid. And Alli one of my favorite girls was being uncharacteristically dumb (and she’s not very bright as it is). And to top it all off they gave Clare cancer for about 10 episodes then all of a sudden she was better! (I’m not even gonna mention Ew… I mean Clew) Lol no. Bye.

16. Season 14 - 14B just swooped in and saved the entire show for me. After the longest hiatus the show has ever had and about a year and a half after me only watching this show when I noticed it was on, the promise of seeing Alli Bhandari and Clare Edwards graduating was just enough to pull me back in. So before 14B I binge-watched season 13 and the first half of 14 (because I didnt really pay attention the first time) and BOY IT CHANGED MY LIFE. Not because the storylines were good but BECAUSE. OF. ZAYA. Never in my life had I gone from hating a ship (yeah yeah Zig was trying to break up Camaya so I hated him) to thinking it was the most well built pairing on the show. The rest of 14 was crap though. Zoe forcing people to send boob pics = dumb. Clare’s baby plot = dumber. So yeah I fell in love with Degrassi again because of Zaya and it’s probably the reason I’m here today.

15. Season 1 - Shocked to find what started it all so low on the list? Yeah me too but that’s the way the cookie crumbles. Overall not much happened this season. It built the world that we left behind in Degrassi High over again and introduced us to the new generation and thats about it. But Sean and Emma’s first date, Emma’s first period, and the ecstasy plot = CLASSIC DEGRASSI.

14. Season 8 - No one is surprised. Honestly though I LOVEEE this era of Degrassi. This was the first season I watched from beginning to end as it was airing so it will always hold a special place in my heart. Not only did I instantly love Alli and Clare to bits, but finally my all time favorite character Johnny DiMarco had an actual girlfriend and showed that he actually has real feelings. WOW.

13. Season 9 - Yeah this is only a step up from season 8 because it was the epitome of Dolly J. The chemistry was through the roof. One of the hottest couples Degrassi has ever had. Plus this season had MORE JOHNNY so yeah I loved it but not a huge amount of hot topics were covered.

12. DNC Season 2 - It covered hot topics but it didn’t really have that spark. I think since it was made at the same time as DNC season 1 that they put so much effort into making the first half great so it could attract more people but yeah it was a bummer. Honestly the only reason it’s above s8&9 is because of the reunion episode and the Craig Manning appearance… I appreciate them attempting the Black Lives Matter plot but it didn’t get me in the gut. I much preferred the Connor and Dallas racism plot in season 13 even if it wasn’t fully fleshed out.

11. Season 10 - This was when Degrassi reinvented itself for the first time and I must say it had me hooked from the beginning. This was when they started airing an episode a day for several weeks and it was so exciting. Everyone was falling for Eclare. And Adam was stealing everyone’s heart. It was so exciting and different and really a breath of fresh air. Were the plots amazing and jaw dropping? No not really but it kept me super entertained and frankly saved the show and I will gladly give the credit where credit is due. But seriously… Eli was better when he was with Morty just sayin…

10. DNC Season 1 - This was the second time that Degrassi reinvented itself and it was MUCH better done than season 10 was. After being so scared of losing the show altogether, seeing the beginning of Next Class really gave me hope. The cast was smaller and so were the lengths of the seasons but they worked so much harder to really make all the plots count and make every minute of screentime the best it could possibly be. After 4 seasons of really long seasons full of random plots that didnt always make the most sense, watching this season felt like coming home to the Degrassi that I fell in love with because for the first time in a long time they really cared about making EVERY plot the best it could possibly be. They still had a couple of kinks and issues to work out but this season really felt like it “went there” again.

9. Season 5 - The first time ever watching the characters you’ve grown up with graduate from Degrassi is one of the hardest things. DTNG’s 100th episode and S5 finale, High Fidelity will still make me cry at the drop of a hat. Watching Paige, Ellie, Marco, and Hazel graduate and thinking that you’ll never see them again still hurts me so much. And the scene where Jimmy forgives Spinner - SO MANY TEARS. Also this season gave us the iconic Manny line “You can sell this for a million dollars because I’m gonna be famous.” Also Darcy and Spinner’s Christianity plot still hold such a special place in my heart.

8. Season 6 - This season was a rollercoaster. One minute I’m flipping out over Sean and Emma being back together then the most heartbreaking TV death in the history of TV ripped my heart out. To this day I cannot watch Rock This Town without bawling my eyes out. I mourned for JT as if I had grown up with him myself. No other fictional character has ever made me feel emotions that were THAT REAL before. As sad as it was it was the moment that sealed Degrassi as my favorite show of all time and even though it’s been 9 years nothing else has even come close.

7. Season 7 - Probably the darkest season the show has ever had. It began with Darcy’s rape and then followed her entire journey throughout the whole semester. On top of that we see Spinner reach the darkest place he has ever been when he gets cancer. And boy this season was just so sad. Especially with the addition of all the Lakehurst kids who we’d eventually learn to love like Holly J, Jane, Sav and Anya. On top of that we get to see Emma, Manny, Liberty, Toby, Spinner, and Jimmy graduate which really was a LONG time coming. These were the people who began the show and now that they were leaving it truly was the end of the Golden Era of Degrassi.

6. Season 4 - This was the season that showed how dark the show could really get and it ultimately proved that Degrassi would “go there.” The fact that still to this day one of the most well known pieces of information about Degrassi is that Jimmy got shot by Rick truly iconic. It’s impossible for me to watch Time Stands Still without getting chills. Also this season featured Kevin Smith and who doesn’t love Kevin Smith.

(to be fair these top 5 are all pretty equal in my eyes and the order in which they come changes frequently)

5. DNC Season 3 - The first thing to note about this season is that it was released at 2am in the morning and I stayed up all night and watched the sunrise because I simply had to finish it all in one sitting. After s14 I was sure that the days of Degrassi’s fantastic seasons were through with and when Next Class began I thought there may be potential but this season went above and beyond all of my expectations. For one MAYA MATLIN. I cannot sing enough praises to the writers for treating her depression and suicide attempt in such a realistic way. And Lola’s abortion plot was the best one they have ever done and was handled in the most beautiful way. This season truly was the darkest season since season 7 and everything about it was So. On. Point.

4. Season 3 - Some of the best and most iconic episodes are from this season and they are the ones that time and time again I find myself rewatching because they never get old. Father Figure, Pride, Holiday, Accidents Will Happen, Take On Me, and Rock & Roll High School all have a solid place on my favorite episodes ever list. This season helped to build Degrassi into the longstanding and iconic show that it has become. During this season we no longer had to introduce characters and get used to them. By now we knew most of our main cast and they instantly felt like family - a concept that is the single most important reason why Degrassi is my favorite show ever.

3. DNC Season 4 - Even though it just came out, I could not imagine putting it any lower on this list. This season accomplished everything I could have possibly wanted and more. The genderfluid plot was so well done and it is something I’ve wanted the show to cover for years. And it tackled terrorism and Islamophobia. Not to mention that this season bid adieu to possibly my favorite graduating class that the show has ever had. It gave each and every one of them the respect and closure that they deserved while not granting any unrealistic and too good to be true endgames (*cough* Eclare). The season focused on the characters themselves and not just their romantic relationships and it really solidified who they have become as people and how much they have grown. And best of all it opened the door for a newer class to come in and keep the show going strong.

2. Season 12 - Wow this season came out of nowhere. In the midst of 2 of the worst seasons Degrassi has ever had was this gem. What made it stand out is that for once the writers went into the season with a plan of where they were going and where they wanted the characters to end up. The entire season was building to Cam’s suicide and how all the characters would be affected by it. Therefore this season had more direction and meaning that many seasons before it were severely lacking. Not only was the over arching plot of this season fantastic, the smaller pieces of it were as well. I was so invested in Campbell Saunders from the moment he showed up on my screen. His relationship with Maya became one of my favorites the show has ever done and it also made me love Maya as a character. This season was also the epitome of Eclare’s relationship for me. They were healthy and in love and finally on the same page (well until Bitter Sweet Symphony). We also had fantastic ships like Fimogen, Drianca, Jatie, Jonnor, and the beginnings of Bhandallas to pass the time. And another one of my favorite Christianity plots featuring Jenna took place in this season. This season’s success caught me by complete surprised and drew me in when I was beginning to not care about the show anymore. More specifically Campbell Saunders and Dylan Everrett’s acting saved Degrassi for me. Without that character I don’t know if I would still be watching the show. His character made me believe that Degrassi still had the ability to make me feel these emotions that other TV shows can’t and therefore this season holds such a special place in my heart.

1. Season 2 - The first time I watched it I did not realize that this would be my favorite season ever. Because to me this season is the Degrassi essentials. It is the bare bones of what makes this show great in every way. Craig’s introduction in When Doves Cry will forever be the greatest introduction to a character I’ve ever seen. It’s so rare to meet a new character and become so drawn in and attached in a single hour that it blew me away. Degrassi introducing Craig as a new character in the season premiere and showing him having an abusive parent was absolutely heartbreaking. To be honest the first time I watched it I didnt understand. I was too young to fully grasp the magnitude of how important this episode was but it was. Moving forward, this season also went on to introduce Marco and Ellie and cover Paige’s rape which was the first time Degrassi truly “went there.” Another personal unsung favorite of mine is Don’t Believe The Hype that shows Hazel’s struggle to accept her heritage and it’s the first plot covering Islamophobia. And how could I possibly not mention one of the most iconic episodes to date, White Wedding that features Spike and Snake getting married with most of their old Degrassi High friends in attendance. This episode also features the cutest most adorable first kiss between Sean and Emma that stole my heart in season 1 but gained OTP status by season 2. In essence, season 2 is the heart of Degrassi.

Apparition of Hanged Man

Hi all, this is my first time posting an incident of my own. I did post an abbreviated version of this occurrence in another person's comments a few weeks ago, so I apologise if anyone has already read the story there. When I was 15, our local drama group won a competition, so we all met up to have our photo taken for the local paper. It was the the middle of the day during the summer. After the photo shoot, we went our separate ways feeling really proud and up-beat etc.

As I walked home, I passed the grounds of the old priests' house. I lived in a tiny village in rural Ireland, population about 200, and this route past the priests' house is one I took every day to get home. It's a beautiful area, not in any way creepy or scary. As I passed, I happened to glance into the garden of the house, and I saw something very odd. About 8 yards away from me there was a tall tree, whose trunk bent into a Y shape about 8 feet off the ground. A man was hanging from the tree. His body was pressed in against the tree trunk, and he had his back to me. His head (if there was one) seemed to be hidden or dipped into the Y of the tree trunk, and it was not visible at all - just his body from the neck down was visible. His arms were hanging loosely by his sides. I remember his clothing very clearly: he wore grey trousers - kind of like office or school trousers (most schools in Ireland have grey trousers as part of their uniforms), he also wore a grey puffy kind of anorak, and grey running shoes, and greyish socks. The odd thing was, his clothing looked very out of date, and his trousers were a bit too short, which was why I could see his socks. His feet were dangling loosely about 2 feet or so from the ground.

I hope I'm describing this correctly - there was literally no apparent way that a person could be hanging from the tree that way, with their arms down by their sides and their head bent into the crook of the tree. I was shocked and horrified...my mind was working very hard to try and come up with a rational explanation for this. To 'help' my brain to rationalise what I was seeing, I walked closer to the apparition - about 5 yards was as close as I could get, ‘cos there was a wall there. But as long as I kept looking, nothing changed. I tried looking away, and looking back (it's funny how we react when we're in shock) but the thing was still there, as clear as anything. It was a solid apparition, as real as you and me, and it didn't move or change or go away. I must have stood there for a few minutes looking at it, wishing that somebody else would come along and 'save' me. I began to panic and become absolutely terrified. A part of my brain which was still functioning as it should, told me that if I ran, I would lose all hope of ever getting over what I had seen, and I was afraid I was going to have a nervous breakdown from the shock. So, as calmly as I could, I walked home (about another 300 yards to my own house). That was the longest walk I have ever taken. As soon as my house was in sight, I sprinted towards it. I ran to my bedroom and slammed the door, sat on the bed and started bawling uncontrollably. My mother came in to comfort me, thinking (understandably) that, yet again, I had just been bullied by some of the local kids. When I told her what I'd seen, she surprised me by saying she believed me. I never found out what it was I saw, but I do know what it wasn't: it wasn't a suicide, at least not one that had taken place anywhere remotely near there. Our village was very close-knit and small, and there had simply never been any suicides there in living memory. There had been no disappearances or murders of any kind either. In hindsight, I should have asked the priest who lived in the old house if he knew what I'd seen, because that would have been a rational thing to do...but being a teenager I was too shy to do that. It still haunts me to this day. I wouldn't pass that spot for many years afterwards, and used to go home by a longer route. But in the past 15 years I've often passed it, and I always glance in, but I've never seen anything since that day. I wonder if anyone has any idea what I saw, or has heard of anything remotely similar?

To the woman who ruined my Saturday:

The day was already rough – we were short-staffed and our internet provider having an area-wide outage was causing major disruptions in our credit card processing. We were very busy and needed all hands on deck. Of course you could not have known these factors when you came in. You approached our counter and said you had a group of 20 and could we help you push tables together? We accommodated you, even though it meant us moving tables from across the dining room to get your large group all in the same spot. The next thing I knew you were putting bright purple tablecloths over all the tables and setting up cupcakes and a cake from another bakery. You had taken up so many tables that our paying customers who had food in their hands were having trouble finding a place to sit. I walked by and asked if everyone in your group would be eating with us. You said “we’ll probably get some drinks but I’m not sure if anyone will be eating.” I politely and calmly said that as a courtesy to us for using a large portion of our space we would ask that everyone in the group eat something with us. You gave me an ugly look but I just walked away. The next thing I know you are ripping off the tablecloths and packing up your baked goods (that you did not purchase from us) and making a huge scene. You marched up to me while I was in the middle of the dining room within ear shot of probably half of our customers and told me in no uncertain terms that you were leaving, that you would never be back, that you had never been treated so unfairly, and (the best part) that “you were not told that it would be this busy in here at this time” as if I can predict how many people will be in my restaurant at a specific time and day. I asked you to stay but you had already made up your mind. You walked out as your mother walked up to me and proceeded to bitch me out for a solid 7 minutes. I have never been chewed out like that before in my life. In front of all of my customers, I stood there and took it on the chin while your mother told me this was the worst place with the worst people and how dare I and why didn’t we have your table of 20 ready for you and “roped off” (even though they didn’t have a reservation and we don’t rope tables off during lunch anyway - never mind the actual facts. I’m sure these people voted for Trump). She told me she would tell everyone she knew to leave us bad reviews on social media and it shouldn’t matter if they brought in outside food because they were customers and it was my job to make them happy. When I tried to finally say something at the end to defend myself she literally said “I understand you’re angry and you want to give me your point of view but it doesn’t matter because I’m the customer.”

At this point I walked away, went into our walk-in cooler, sat on a pickle bucket and bawled like a baby for about 15 minutes. When I gathered myself I came out to find Clif on the phone with none other than the original women who was the host of this failed party. She stayed on the phone with Clif for almost 10 minutes, telling him how awful I was to tell them they had to eat and how she was so embarrassed that she had been kicked out (she hadn’t). She mentioned multiple times that she worked with victimized kids in her job (no obvious need to mention this other than that I presume she uses her non-profit work as an excuse to be horrible to other people). Clif, much like I had just done minutes earlier from this woman’s mother, took it on the chin and let this woman tell us what horrible people we are. Clif kept apologizing and at the end of the conversation asked her “how can we make this right for you?” because my husband is an amazing person who can deal graciously with people and even though I don’t think we owed this woman a damn thing, we do care about giving good customer service and making things right if and when the customer feels like they’ve been wronged. The woman didn’t really give an answer and we felt like finally the situation had been diffused enough and we could move on with our lives.

Two days later Clif received a Facebook message from this woman. I could copy and paste the whole thing here but i won’t because I’m going to try and be more of a decent human being than this woman is. The gist of the message was that she was reminding us that we were wrong and that we are bad people and that her mother had every right to gripe me out and we should feel lucky that she didn’t gripe me out more AND (her grand finale) she says “you asked me how you could make this right for me and I’ve been thinking about it all weekend. I work with victimized children and my work is really important so I would ask that you make a donation to one of the many organizations in our area that are doing charitable work. I do not need a reply to this message.” A lovely and passive aggressive way of saying that what we have to say does not matter as much as what she has to say.

Lady, you just reached full-on bitch status. As a woman, I really hate the word bitch, especially when it’s one woman referring to another. I think all women deserve better. But, really? Let’s break this whole thing down:

1. You came into my bakery with bakery products from somewhere else. This is considered pretty bad form, no matter where you live. Maybe you have been living under a rock for the past 30 years though, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

2. You took up 20 seats in my restaurant during a busy Saturday lunch and expected not to have to dine with us. I’m sorry but “we might order some drinks” does not make this situation ok. Our drinks cost $1.80 so unless you’d like to purchase 100 cokes, you do not get a free pass. We are a restaurant, not an event-space.

3. You had the audacity to tell me our customer service was bad after you pulled the stunt that you did. Sure, lets play that out: customer service implies I’m giving service (whether good or bad) to someone that’s my customer. What does customer mean? Someone who’s doing business with me. You bringing in outside bakery products and then expecting to not have to buy much of anything from us does not make you my customer. It actually makes you a squatter.

4. You said you were embarrassed by me asking you to eat with us. I’m truly sorry if I made you feel embarrassed. It is never our intention to make our customers feel badly about something. However, in this situation ma'am, you should feel a little embarrassed. What you did was actually quite rude and in bad taste.

5. Using your non-profit job as some kind of cloak to hide behind so that you can gripe, complain, make other people feel like shit, or shame them into giving some financial contribution is just downright shameful. You should feel horrible about this and I hope you don’t sleep well at night.

6. Suggesting that we make some kind of donation in order to make this situation right for you is incredibly haughty and down right ridiculous. First of all, let me make it clear, you were in the wrong. We were the bigger persons and apologized and offered to make it right for you, even when didn’t have to. We could’ve just said “screw you and don’t come back to our restaurant anyway.” You clearly have a false sense of reality and a complete and utter lack of awareness about how you come across to other people. But beside that, your suggestion to make a charitable donation is on par with some major company who’s made a public gaffe or illegal business deal making a charitable donation in order to save face and fix their public image. Are you suggesting we screwed up so royally that we have some kind of PR issue on our hands? (You’re insane). Secondly, you’re also making the assumption that we don’t give charitably otherwise and/or that we’re just some kind of greedy business owners who only care about ourselves. You don’t know a damn thing about us or our business or about the numerous local organizations we support throughout the year. You probably don’t know that we donate all kinds of breads and day-old products to two local missions every single week. You probably don’t know that we’ve hosted multiple donation drives for Ozarks Food Harvest, Care to Learn and American Cancer Society. You probably don’t know about all the nights we’ve hosted elementary schools in low-income neighborhoods for fundraiser nights and donated the profits to them or the (literally hundreds of) smaller donations we’ve made to support our community be it food, gift cards for giveaways or the likes.

And of course, why would you know any of this? You are a selfish, entitled person who’s probably miserable on the inside and you don’t look beyond yourself to see that maybe you made a decision that wasn’t smart or might have been hurtful to someone else. You just shifted the blame to us, you ruined my entire weekend, you made me ugly cry, and now you expect us to give money just to make it right for you. I’m sorry, lady, but screw you. And yes, please do not ever come back to my restaurant again.

PS. I used to work for a non-profit too and I never pulled the shit that you’ve just pulled. Shame on you.

#worst customer ever
