just let it grow

what's the point of mowing grass anyway?

Buy in bulk at the Dollar Tree, buy more than 10 and the rest are free. The cashier cannot count past 10, winning.

Sign a prenup - you get no assets on death or divorce.

Agree not to touch the other person's pension while they live.

Then you can continue collecting half the pension when s/he dies for the rest of your life, which could be decades.

You will wake up on your office chair with your boss replying "Can't you recognise the place you work, everyday?" If 7th century BCE Odysseus can move to the ocean in his wooden plank, without a compass, get wrecked in the stormy sea and drown - and upon waking up healthy on a coast asks his own hallucination "where am i" and gets an extremely high confidence interval accurate reply "can't you recognise your own home", we are after all living in the 21st century. At least there wont be any risk of driving off a cliff using a GPS.

Bonus points of the comment is just an emoji or vague acronym. I personally will be using MTE (my thoughts exactly)

Advanced shit pro tip lifers can also just repeat something already in the original post.

Studies find this makes someone feel pressured to keep talking

Would like advice on how to save money on metal forks and spoons though.

Hi everyone, I'm a student studying abroad, and at the moment I'm completely financially dependent on my mom because, due to my current situation, I haven't been able to find a job here. My mom is an accountant back home and recently completed work for a client. The problem is that he still hasn't paid her. Almost every day, he tells her something like, "I'll send the money after work today." Then the day ends, nothing arrives, and when she reminds him, he says he forgot and promises he'll send it tomorrow. This has been repeating over and over again.

She even contacted his wife, hoping she could at least remind him, but her response was basically, "That's not my problem. Get the money from the person who owes you."

I told my mom that if paying her were actually a priority, he wouldn't keep postponing it every single day. She agreed, but she asked if I wanted to try talking to him myself. I'm honestly not sure it would make any difference.

Part of me is so frustrated that I even thought about trying to find his mother's phone number and telling her how her son treats people who have already provided a service, but I don't have her phone number. I even thought that I would talk to him tomorrow and give him a deadline, and if he doesn't reach it, to post his number on all the intimacy sites so that everyone will call him nonstop, but idk about that yet.

Has anyone dealt with a client like this? What would you do in this situation? Is there anything that has actually worked to get someone like this to finally pay?

For context, he acknowledges that he owes the money. He just keeps promising to pay "tomorrow" and never follows through.

Standards for your English are low because it is not expected to be your first language, and people aren't good enough in the non-English language to realise that you aren't good at it either.
