I have no problem with people owing me money, just don't drop off the face of the earth if you do so. I did tell him that I didn't have room for it in my shed, and I did tell him to pay me when he had it. I let things go for a few weeks, and called him just to see if he had the cash. He didn't pick up. I sent him a PM.. read receipt confirmed it was read, but he never got back to me. I will NOT have kindness mistaken for weakness, and I was just wanting to make sure that this kid who I didn't know from Adam at the time hadn't made off with my engine. He did end up giving the engine back to me, and I have no hard feelings, which I told him when I got it back. I posted that I got it back so people would know, and the whole situation was forgotten about. I see Simon all the time at the Athens meets, and he never has had another word to say about it... mainly because he's so busy scarfing down my cookies.
Congratulations that you did the right thing. However.. think of it this way.. say the family had turned down your offer to rectify the situation. They never said a word to you about wanting the money back, wanting the car towed, anything. Say they paid a 1500 down payment on a 2200 car (not saying the car was.. just an example). So since they didn't say anything to you about taking up your offer, you just say "ok well don't pay me the remaining 700 because I don't feel that's fair." So you don't hear about it, then the next thing you know, they're calling you a crook in the local newspaper, without ever saying a word to you. Sucks, doesn't it?
And get off your high holy horse. Seriously. You think your sh!t don't stink or something? You don't even KNOW me, so how dare you make those kinds of accusations towards me? You're butthurt because I got you banned off an internet forum when you fxcked with my friend. Get over it and move on.
I'm still waiting to see this list of people I have supposedly screwed over.
And you KNOW that your animosity towards me is completely unfounded, because when I asked you, civilly, about the mustangs that I was going to look at the last time I was in Boro, you replied and asked that I "Not mention the things you had said to me because you wanted to continue doing business" with the guy. Seriously, Joey? How can you claim to be such a saint when you don't even present your true self to people? I know that my personality with people doesn't always "mesh". I know I'm loud and can be downright obnoxious sometimes. But if someone doesn't like me, I do care enough to want to know what, if anything, I did to make them not like me, because I like having a lot of friends and getting along with people. Take Kyle, for instance.. he was coming after me almost every post I made, and I finally PM'd him and asked him why he felt the need to like you, and after a few PM's back and forth he finally just said because he had been in a group I was hanging out with at the Varsity and he thought I was loud and a bit annoying. I can take that. That's who I am, I'm not gonna change, and I appreciate him telling me that it wasn't something I had done to piss him off and didn't know about. You'll also notice that since then he hasn't come after me anymore. Why? Because even though I may not be FRIENDS with someone, I don't like having enemies. You, on the other hand, I pretty much disdain, because you lie about who you are, come after me with absolutely no reason, and you've never even had the pleasure of meeting me to decide if you just dislike my personality or not.
I don't claim to be a saint or a hero or perfect... and quite personally, I question anyone who does.
yum
