1. When my mother wanted to put the cat to sleep (too sick) and told me it would cost money I told her I'd take the cat out back and break his neck. She elected to put the cat to sleep, however.
2. When me and an ex-gf broke up briefly, I went and fucked 9 different women in a week (safely of course). Some were ones I knew I could call in a pinch and others were women I met that week and hooked up with.
It's one of those things I of course never talked about when we got back together.
3. On a different side, I told an ex (I was with at the time) that I had sex with the ex before her (she knew her) at the beginning of our relationship at the time. I was trying to be honestand luckily since it was the beginning she didn't smack the shit outta me.
4. My PS1 started fucking up soon after I bought it (way back) so I bought another. cleaned up the old one, and returned it.
5. I've switched price tags on items (but who hasn't). Mostly works on markdowns. UPCs prevent alot.
6. Bought some gutter covers. They were in a box and the check-out person didn't wanna count them. I forgot how many were in there and gave a low number. I end up getting about 13 free (I think about $4 each). Any number I gave would have been wrong.
7. When I bought a Sony surround receiver and speakers (yeeeearz ago), they were giving a free dvd player with it. I think it was Hi-Fi.com.
It was supposed to be $600. I called 'cause I was supposed to get $25 off by ordering on the net but teh web wouldn't apply teh discount. The rep quoted me the right price ($575) but when I received the stuff I saw I was charged $475. I also sent in a coupon for 5 DVD movies free (came with the player) and got those 5....twice. Sold 4 of the extras for $10 and gave the other to a friend.
I never called to advise of the pricing error.
8. I had season tickets to the Bullets (now the Wizards) back when we had Chris Webber and games were at US Air Arena (Capital Centre for those that remember). When I went to see the Bullets play the Bulls in the playoffs (Jordan ya know) I bought tickets to the first home game and second (WHICH WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF THE BULLETS COULD'VE WON ONE FRIGGIN' GAME).
I bought tons of tickets 'cause I was going to sell them.
I gave my mother, girlfriend and aunts their tickets and me and one o my boys went to sell the other tickets. I sold 4 tickets outside (with heavy markup of course) then went in to my seat. When we get to our seat, there are folks sitting in them so after som politeness we were like, "GET THE FUCK UP!!" Security came and it seemed those us and those folks had valid tickets. Since they were already sitting we got escorted to the Bullets office.
I was pissed and was about to really lose it when......
some executive guy came out and gave us a paper ticket with handwriting on it.
Me and my boy watched the game 2 rows from the floor and sat next to Bernie Bickerstaff's daughter.
....turns out the whoooole mix up was 'cause my dumbass mixed in the second game's tickets with that day's tickets (a game that never happened 'cause Calbert Cheaney missed the last shot at the buzzer). I don't even know WTH I sold outside. They would be able to get a refund anyway but not for the marked up price. The execs and security never looked at the tickets close enough to see it was a different date.
Now tickets are scanned so that can't happen anymore. :whew:
I almost went bald when it doesn't even run in my family but ended up making a shitload of money, saw Jordan play my home team 2 rows from the floor, and got to rap to the coach's daughter.
and luckily since it was the beginning she didn't smack the shit outta me.
