It's funny, that once you get money, every motherfucker in the world starts coming out of the woodwork and asking for some of what you've got. Even if you don't have that much. It's crazy shit.
Even my mom called me up...talking about some old shit..."Remember that old storm door, and you broke the glass pane on accident? Well then you remember you said you'd reimburse me? That was $20. Can you send me a check?" That incident happened like 15 years before and she doesn't even have that goddamned door anymore.
Getting shit in the mail all the time. Bills. Charities asking for donations. I even get MORE junkmail now, from companies trying to get me to spend money on dumb shit. How the fuck do they know???
Spent almost a thousand dollars on flowers, bushes, vines, mulch n woodchips and shit for the front of the house last summer; because it looked so bare with just grass. Even got a couple of long rectangular planters that I screwed onto the front porch with bunch of plants. Looks so much nicer. The same fucking week, All the sudden people started coming to the door to sell shit all the time... Just because my house looks a little nicer. Probably get 2 or 3 solicitors a week selling everything from "cheaper gas" to books to religion. Even had a goddamned vacuum cleaner salesman show up last week. It was never this bad when my house was more plainer looking.
I'm not a tightwad or anything, but goddamn! Motherfuckers can smell money!!
I had some kids come over and offer to mow my lawn for $10 a few weeks ago. They even had a little flyer with the price for a simple lawn mow as $10, written. I said no thanks but I pinned their flyer on the fridge. Earlier today I called them up to come mow my lawn. Anyways, their fucking dad showed up first, trying to hustle, and jack up the fucking price to $20. What a dick. I gave the kid $15; he said his dad takes $5 off the top because it's the dad's mower - he said last time he got $20 and his dad took $10. I guess there's no escaping people trying to stop people from getting at your dough, even if it's your own fucking parents and you're 10 years old.

Door-to-door salesmen still exist?
people are untrustworth, dispicable, decieving, greedy and love to take advantage of people or situations. Really, if you want to put an end to all the bloodsuckers? Just refuse them all. If you don't wanted to be targeted, make a concious decision to purchase what you want, when you want, where you want. Don't give anyone money. Unless they're close and really need it. I'm a total prick so people wouldn't dare come back when I'm done with door to door salesman.
Hell the Girl Guides probably have my place Blacklisted :)
