Was kind of watching a case on the People's Court a little while ago while puttering with other stuff.  Caught the tail-end because Judge Milian's voice and attitude caught my attention.

Turns out that a plaintiff had dumped her belongings on the two defendants and tried to force them to be free storage in spite of the defendants' repeated requests to pick up her belongings.  After nearly THREE YEARS, the defendants got fed up and got rid of the stuff because, in the eyes of the law, it is abandoned property.  Plaintiff got all huffy and sued.  Judge Milian basically read the Riot Act to the plaintiff and told her that it was HER responsibility to get her belongings especially after this length of time had elapsed and that the defendants are not responsible to be free storage.  Judge Milian was NOT happy with the plaintiff and her attitude.

The case reminded me of what I was dealing with here.  If the N is dumb enough to sue me for getting rid of her abandoned junk after over THREE DECADES, I have a feeling the judge will read her the same Riot Act as well on the same grounds.

I remember seeing this on YouTube afterward and now I'm trying to find it.

I've been chatting with other fiber artists in another forum and have been learning some new things. 

One of the words I've added to my vocabulary is:  "GIMMIEPIG". 

I've also learned that I'm not alone among the fiber artists who have been approached by GIMMIEPIGS who DEMAND that you work for FREE for THEIR CONVENIENCE because THEY ARE ENTITLED!  (Sound familiar?)  Another fiber artists shared her experience of being approached by a co-IRKer who decreed that she should make a cable sweater, identical to what the co-IRKer saw for x-amount-of-money as that is what the co-IRKer would pay for it!  The fiber artist explained that x-amount-of-money would NOT cover the cost of the yarn let alone the amount of WORK that goes into hand-knitting such an item.  Co-IRKer called the fiber artist a B!TCH!  (Again, sound familiar?)

Co-IRKer fits into the category of GIMMIEPIG as well as being an N!

What IS it with inDUHviduals who DEMAND "Special Exceptions" to policies/rules/regulations/procedures, etc.?!?!?!   

I might have mentioned, in an earlier posting, about an acquaintance who is renting out his unit.  His last tenant created quite an uproar that involved the police due to domestic violence.  He had been notified about the situation, several times, for one year in which he did NOTHING that a landlord is required to do!  When the first hearing about the situation took place, he gave a lot of excuses.  When a SECOND HEARING was required, he CHOSE NOT TO ATTEND because he felt he didn't need to bother!  Well, that cost him consequences in the way of being fined!  He appealed the fine and it was reduced.  Now he's appealing AGAIN, CLAIMING that he's being treated "unfairly"!!  WTF?!?!?

A letter writer describes what it's like to live with chronic pain, (I can relate to that), and a troll responds with N-Crap!  I hope Instant Karma gets that troll!!!!

I think, in the Western World at least, that a lot of people have become too used to having everything done for them and have no idea of the work or cost of a lot of things.  I think a lot of people just want, want, want now and it shows with people like the one you describe! I see quite often on various blogs that people complain that an article or recipe (or whatever it is that's being written for them) isn't what they wanted!  As if the person writing it ought to be doing personalised articles for everybody.  Too much consumption now, I think, and not enough thought from some

I've watched some idiots give David Gerrold, a professional writer, a hard time with their GIMMIEPIG demands!  The result was FUN to watch!  The GIMMIEPIGS learned the hard way NOT to mess with him!!!
