We here at Bored Panda like to entertain our readers with various funny memes and hilarious photo compilations or broaden our visitors' perspective on arts and interesting facts, but sometimes we feel the need to share a not-so-pleasant educational story or two. And this time it's about rude people, who just cannot ever feel satisfied, mainly because of their huge sense of entitlement.
You know the saying 'beggars can't be choosers?' It turns out it's wrong! Some people, when receiving generous help with their everyday problems by strangers, choose to push for more instead of showing some of the deserved gratitude. And these people, my friend, are just the worst. While some of the helpers decided to kill them with kindness, others delivered the best comebacks for the ungrateful.
This list, collected by us here at Bored Panda is one of those that'll leave you furious. Furious with the sheer gall of people who can't see a good deed when it slaps them in the face and have only one first world problem on their minds; themselves! Scroll down to check the stories and savage roasts for yourself, and don't forget to upvote for your 'favorite' of these shameless cheaters!

The ring that My Love gave me was around $30 from Kmart. I wasn't expecting anything, and this wonderful blue jewel was slipped on my finger minutes after my basic training graduation. I was so shakey from just seeing those eyes again, touching those hands again, it was a wonder that it didn't go flying across the hall. I had that ring up until we finally moved back to our Home state last year. We haven't replaced it; perhaps one day we will. We're closing in on 15 years, now, and those hands still have one another, which makes a more beautiful circle than any ring.

I worked for a fine jewelry store and once helped a customer that dropped $1500 on fresh water pearl earrings, necklace and bracelet for his girlfriends birthday. She was back two days later returning all of them saying "I told him I wanted a Persian Cat for my birthday. But of course he gets me this junk instead." I leaned into the manager after she left and said "Probably because he knew a fine set of jewelry doesn't need to be fed or brushed. Plus the jewelry doesn't leave hair and hairballs everywhere and won't destroy your furniture by clawing it and crapping all over it."

Keeping Up With The Kuethers 7 years ago
I can't stand girls like this one. Why tf does it matter how much something cost or how big the ring is. I don't do jewelry or purses and my husband knows that so when he picked my ring out he got a little one because before he proposed I NEVER wore a ring so I didn't want a big a*s ring that would bother me. People have made jokes cause it's little and it has bothered my husband but I don't bite my tongue, I will tell you about your self and that's what I did with everyone who had something to say. I told them he got what I WANTED not what he wanted to get me because I really CAN NOT stand jewelry for some reason, it just bothers me the way it feels. Women need to stop expecting so damn much. My husband spent $1200 but if he only spent $12 it wouldn't have bothered me cause I'm not going to expect something big because that's what every other woman is getting or that's what the "norm" is since today's society worry's about what others say.

I agreed, but she kept stalling and stalling, and I told her if somone wanted them for the full price AND PAID FOR THEM, I was going to sell them to the other person. Well, that's what happened, and of course, *I* was the bad guy for ruining her daughter's birthday party, because she PROMISED her daughter she'd have them. Maybe I'm wrong, but I have a hard time feeling bad about this.

I was living in the US and used to see a lot of veterans at intersections holding cardboard signs asking for money or means to go on with their lives. I always felt so deeply sorry that they had to endure a war, literally having their lives on the line. One day I found a guy who looked older. I pulled down my window and handed him a $20 and said "Thank you for your service, God bless you". He faltered. Looked me in the eyes, but accepted. No 'Thank you'. As soon as the light went green, he banged on the side of my car 3 times and yelled "Go away! You're stealing our jobs!". I was shocked. I had been relocated from my country to the US *by the North American company* where I used to work because my specific skills were a fit for the position. I was not 'stealing' anyone's job. I feel so sorry that Veterans have to go through this, after all they have endured. They should have proper social and health care. His rage was not against *me*. It was against the lack of dignity he deserved.

The man is able bodied, so I offered to help if he would agree to help me paint my house. He signed a contract that detailed hourly rate & all. He worked off about half the money I gave him in advance. Then he skipped town without a phone call, an offer to pay at a later date when he was back on his feet, or an apology. The jerk had the nerve to call me up ten years later saying he was moving back in town. He said he needed a place to stay. He said he needed money to rent a storefront and open a business he wanted to start. Hmmm...He didn't ask for help, he just told me his needs. I was supposed to leap to the rescue of the poor dear. This guy only expects the best out of his friends. Funny how he won't give so much as a phone call in return. I told him to give me a call when he was settled in, and we could go for coffee ...

Recently, when moving, I listed a bunch of stuff to give out for FREE (receiving end to pay shipping, but I still have to pack them and ship them out), including $200+ handbags and $500+ home appliances, all in good condition. I could just donate them to charity, but I would like friends and acquaintances to enjoy them, because I sure did when I had them! I also listed them on some message boards, offering them to strangers. In the end, not one of those "friends" who took my stuff even sent a "thank you" message after receiving the items, while the complete strangers took their time to thank me and tell me the stuff are useful to them...

It's actually not something I'm used to seeing, especially the online convos(I might be wrong but I think this kind of sh*t is less widespread here because people on the whole have lower life standards and are usually more grateful for what they do have/get) so that was a very entertaining read. It makes me wonder...are those like op unique cases or is this actually a common kind of attitude? This whole attitude...it's like very very infantile and it seems that's becoming a common thing in modern adults, especially in developed countries. With the coddling to kids' whims, with whole 'you can be whatever you want and do whatever you like'(yes, but there are certain limits to this...), with generous social support...to an extent all these things are great and much needed, but is this actually what we are getting on the big scale? A generation littered with people who want the world to comply to their every whim, adults with mentality of 5 year olds? That's alarming...

Recently, when moving, I listed a bunch of stuff to give out for FREE (receiving end to pay shipping, but I still have to pack them and ship them out), including $200+ handbags and $500+ home appliances, all in good condition. I could just donate them to charity, but I would like friends and acquaintances to enjoy them, because I sure did when I had them! I also listed them on some message boards, offering them to strangers. In the end, not one of those "friends" who took my stuff even sent a "thank you" message after receiving the items, while the complete strangers took their time to thank me and tell me the stuff are useful to them...

We are just about to move and have put some stuff we don't want for very low prices online. I was selling a school bag at half the price it was bought for, almost perfect condition. A woman asked for it for $4 and said that was ok, because frankly, I prefer not to waste things. Then the lady said I had to bring it to her....to catch public transport to her location would have cost $2 and taken an hour return. Thank you but no thank you.

And here I thought my eyebrows could not go any higher. I think they hit the ceilieng. 5 stories above me.

It's actually not something I'm used to seeing, especially the online convos(I might be wrong but I think this kind of sh*t is less widespread here because people on the whole have lower life standards and are usually more grateful for what they do have/get) so that was a very entertaining read. It makes me wonder...are those like op unique cases or is this actually a common kind of attitude? This whole attitude...it's like very very infantile and it seems that's becoming a common thing in modern adults, especially in developed countries. With the coddling to kids' whims, with whole 'you can be whatever you want and do whatever you like'(yes, but there are certain limits to this...), with generous social support...to an extent all these things are great and much needed, but is this actually what we are getting on the big scale? A generation littered with people who want the world to comply to their every whim, adults with mentality of 5 year olds? That's alarming...

It's a common attitude, just not quite on this scale all the time. People complaining about getting the wrong gift, wanting a specific free coupon, complaining about free content not being as they expect, things like that.
