Curious to Cranky
A CB friend who was initially intrigued texted a needlepoint frame maker. The artist requested $50 after completing the design and canvas, which is a reasonable amount for such a design. The friend first tried to haggle by claiming he could get it cheaper on Etsy.
Then it occurred to them that perhaps the artist does not require money and could benefit from the exposure. He’d replace the $50 with tagging the artist in pictures. When you only have 120 Facebook friends, it isn’t the best deal.
The Bratty Fashionista
It’s bad enough to stalk people on social media, but saving someone’s photo and then asking them to send you their clothes so you can try them on for a day is borderline creepy.
A Redditor’s “friend” will occasionally scroll through her photos, select a dress as if it’s perfectly acceptable, and then ask her to send it over. The friend who couldn’t speak chose radio silence, while the other said an embarrassing “Girl bye.”
