Ok cool. But thats not a hack. Got it. Good to know. Thats human engineering hahahaha 😆

This fucking psycho really was running around the living room with a weed eater.

I'm so fucking done.

I should have never let him back in the house.

I should have kept the restraining order on him... Even though he broke it anyway.

I've been screamed at and had furniture thrown at me and threatened.

He almost broke the table.

He almost fucked my cat's life.

He might have broken some shit.

Idek right now.

Had to get the animals out.

He was really triggering my CPTSD (the root cause of half of it) but I held it together for as long as I could until I had to scream back

STOP YOU FUCKING PSYCHO!

YOU'RE A GODDAMN LUNATIC!

ofc that makes me a crazy quote leaky cunt

And obviously I'm the one out of control

I'm so over this fucking piece of shit psychotic man child ruining my fucking life

Basically holding me hostage

He scammed me

Best me daily

Made me lose EVERYTHING multiple times

Had me locked up for what HE did

I'm so fucking over EVERYTHING

He should have fucking died years ago

I got scammed, I should have asked what they were going to feed her to

Haha. Maybe you got scammed 👀😆

While sitting here sniffling from a cold regretting not getting to eat with nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqtxwaehxw309anxjmr5v4ezumn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tmwwp6kyvf4xdux6etcxse8sdrrdpjxvde4xa58qvm3xea8sct8094kkettxacxgemhw4mkgvphxsunvdryddukscfewvuryunew5ur7cnjdaskgcmpwd6r6arjw4jsqg9ap9w4v98lpp6wzm3jqqc4lw2hlg4e4w57vmye6adc8fpw3hzkzv9zawmu and watching war negotiations between Trump and Zelenskyy going on in the Vatican City. I have been reflecting on the guilt I feel cancelling tonight and my path to becoming “Mike the Bastard”.

We had booked a social media friend on X, "Colin the Abingdon taxi" to take us to and from Southampton for our recent Cruise.

A few days before we were due to board, he messaged me and explained he couldn’t drive us there because he had a Church friend that was seriously ill and nobody else was available, however he had asked another taxi friend of his to take us instead.

The day comes and the taxi turns up, I’m going to name names, because I got scammed. He was Adi who runs Jericho Executive Cars, phone: 07500 004335

The journey was fine and we arrive in Southampton in pouring rain. I had agreed 120 GBP with Colin, but ask Adi “How much do I owe you?’. He replies, 220 GBP. I’m shocked, but as I hadn’t negotiated with him before the journey and was in no position to argue, I pay with some ineffective verbal complaint.

On returning, Colin picks us up, I tell him about the price charged by Adi and he simply says “That’s not right Mike, he shouldn’t have charged you that much”, but offers no further comment.

I then ask after his seriously ill Church colleague. After a long winded explanation that doesn’t mention him at all, it turns out that the old gentleman simply decided to retire from running the churches mixing desk during Sunday morning service and Colin was the only other person that knew how it worked.

I went silent at this explanation and it became obvious to Colin that I wasn’t best pleased, he had cancelled our booking to run a church service sound mixing desk.

Later during the taxi ride, he explains that the church has been trying to get Internet, but struggled because the local telecoms box is at capacity. I ask if he’s considered Starlink, Colin replies that he’s never heard of it, so I message him the link to it.

Later on that day, he messages thanking me, but concerned about potential line of sight coverage issues, I discover the answers to his concerns and message him back, but get no response, presumably because he doesn’t need me any more.

Fast forward to today, where I am feeling incredibly guilty letting down the Bitcoin Chef as well as sad that I won’t get to enjoy his food or meet him in real life.

I therefore used my time to resolve my feelings to understand that I am responsible for cancelling my booking, which is why I offered to pay in full for tonight, but I bear no guilt as I couldn’t help my wife and I getting colds.

In fact, before I felt ill today, I was deciding whether to cancel as I didn’t want to be responsible for my wife spreading germs in a public restaurant, especially as this evening involves communal seating on shared tables and our dining neighbours might not have been happy with my wife coughing and sneezing next to them.

So while I still have some guilt, I am working on changing that to just responsibility.

As for our taxi driver, I could make a fuss about the scam fare, but realistically the extra 100 GBP is well worth paying as a life lesson to help me stop feeling guilty for breaking commitments when necessary and continuing my journey towards “Mike the Bastard”.

Looks like I got scammed on my SNES years ago, it was definitely used even though I bought it new in box. Someone pointed out there was debris on one of the feet of the console unit.

It's like saying someone got scammed into buying fake lettuce. if someone just gave you a bag full of grass from the side of the road you would notice.

your dress is super cute 🥰

just want to point out how deceiving retail is these days. the "original" $129 price is already printed on the tag with a line through it which means they never meant to sell it at that price. the "real" price underneath is actually $59.99.

so you paid $29 for it which is actually a 50% savings. except the sticker that's on it says it's a 77% savings which it never was because they never meant to sell it at that price.

I'm not saying you got scammed. I think $30 is a very reasonable price for a cotton dress with a simple, cute design

But it's not a deal. you did not "save money" they just want you to think you did so you'd brag about it to your people and people will be like "omg! where'd you get that " and the you'd tell them TjMaxx or whatever.

super cute, but don't fall for their mind games!

Zap4follow? I got scammed, I only followed the account because I read something I liked. Boniz23sats you owe me zaps (50,000,000 sats) for following you for the past two years.

Today a dude hits me up like he just finished watching The Secret and thinks he's Satoshi 2.0. He goes,

“Bro, you're into Bitcoin right? You get how money works. I’ve got this revolutionary opportunity—just invest 10 Lakh, bring two people, and boom! You’re financially free by Q4!”

At first I thought he was trying to get orangepilled…

Turns out he was trying to MLMpill me.

I said, “Sorry, man. I don’t onboard into pyramid schemes, I run nodes.”

He blinked like I just hit him with a 1000 sat zap over lightning. 😂

Then he tried to show me a PDF pitch deck. I told him I only trust open-source whitepapers and Nostr notes, not PowerPoint prayers and WhatsApp webinars.

He said, “But you’re a Bitcoin pro!”

I said, “Nah. I’m just fluent in truth and math. You’re speaking fiat fiction.”

Pro tip: If your “investment” plan dies when you stop recruiting, it’s not a revolution—it’s a scam with a logo.

Stay toxic, stay sovereign. Zap wisely.
