35 Times Entitled People Showed Their True Colors On Christmas (New Pics)
The holiday spirit is all about giving, and we’re not talking about gifts specifically. We mean spreading joy and love to those around you. Being compassionate and understanding and showing kindness to the world. It’s also about expressing gratitude for what you have and what you receive. This cycle of grace and generosity is what makes the season so special.
However, some people like to abuse the magical feeling of the holiday spirit that lingers in the air without carrying it in their hearts themselves. All they want to do is take and don’t even consider saying thank you to anyone. Find the worst examples of these scrooges by scrolling down below.

Geez, Having A Relative Abandon You Like This On Christmas Is Hugely Damaging Emotionally, Not To Mention Dangerous
Being a mum myself, I honestly feel like this post was meant to be sarcastic
I wish that was true but there are too many sorry parents out there
Load More Replies...Not to mention this person expects someone to spend their own Christmas with a random person's kids?
I love how everyone just assumes the worst. Loads my friends post stuff like this around Christmas, it's this very little known thing called a sense of humour. Nobody is actually expecting a stranger to look after their babies. Drama Llamas everywhere!
While holidays are about kindness and all the other good feelings out there, there’s no denial that the material side of things, the gift giving, is also a part of it. And there’s nothing wrong with that—it’s one of the ways to make people in your life feel loved and appreciated.
Unfortunately, sometimes, the gifts you receive do miss the mark. Someone might have forgotten that you already bought yourself a cast iron pan or didn’t realize that orange is simply not your color. The good thing is that there is a chance you might be able to regift it.
Selling A Used iMac For 1200$, Woman Asks “How Low” I Would Sell It For, Or If I’d Take 800 And Some Jewelry She Makes. Oh And I Also Ruined Christmas
I work in a $2 shop. We get people trying to bargain with us. "$2.50?! Can you make it a $1". Those people are so annoying!
Many many years ago, my dad had a garage sale. People were haggling on items he was selling for 50 cents. "Will you take a quarter?". smdh.
Load More Replies...If you are able to pay $800 for a Christmas gift, don’t play the I am a poor single mother card. Being a single mother can be really challenging, but refusing your kids a $1200 gift shouldn’t be one of those challenges.
"[...] and now I have to tell them that >YOU< let them down." That's the part that makes my blood boil. Of course it's difficult being a single mom, and add some extra around Christmas time! I'm not even mad about the attempt at haggling, that's a "you never know unless you try"-thing; it's okay to ask nicely. But the guilt-tripping is just disgusting. The seller never made any promise to the kids, they aren't letting anyone down.
Another crazy concept: if your kids are asking for something "all year" and you are the type of mother who wants to give them everything they ask for, SAVE THE MONEY.
These cannot be real. I see iterations of this same conversation again and again online and I can't believe anyone would actually act like this.
Do you get out much? Don’t mean that insultingly, but in my 50 worldly & wise years, I’ve seen more than my fair share of fully entitled people acting exactly like this. Repeatedly.

The Holidays Bring Out The Very Best In Beggars
People love to complain about free things. I hosted a free pancake breakfast through work, just for fun, and I had pancakes, butter, syrup, sausages, orange juice, apple juice, coffee, hot chocolate, tea, and I even managed to get some cartons of chocolate milk which was a big win imo! The main feedback I got from the public was “where’s the bacon? Where’s the eggs? Next time you do this you should offer toast too. Oh, no fruit? No orange slices? No muffins or crumpets? No peanut butter, oh ok….maybe you shouldn’t even bother next time if you can’t offer a full breakfast.” A few sweet souls thanked me for a lovely meal, but I was honestly just trying to do something fun and nice for my below-average-income community and it left me kinda heartbroken.
Load More Replies...I feel so many people are missing the point of this post. Just because you're working doesn't mean you get enough money to survive on. And many people still require food assistance. That being said you can afford to miss a day of wages but you still need the food. That's literally the point. You can't afford to miss work and you also can't afford to miss help getting the food that you also need.
You make a good point, but the program runs for several days for 10hrs each day, and it’s done fairly. Whether you’re the first in line or the last in line, you’ll get exactly the same in your hamper, so I’m sure if she was really in need of the hamper she’d be able to find the time to get one.
Load More Replies...This is the kind of people that if they were there when Jesus (supposedly if you're not religious) multiplied the bread and fishes complained that the bread had no butter and the fish no lemon slices
Whoa. This is not entiled. It does take hours to get free food. And just because you are working doesnt mean you are poor. This should be done on mutiple days so people have the oppurtunity to come.
Sometimes you don't get paid for two weeks, and when you do its $500-$600 and your rent is $650, but yea jump down their throat.
It can be very real and shocking that a huge amount of charitable goods and gestures don't actually help the people they're supposed to. If you work more than one job, you often don't get days off. You can be too busy working to keep a roof over your kids' heads that you can't wait in line all day. Your church may want to give blankets, but did they ask what the community needed? If you say no one can complain about free things, be sure it really is free, and accessible. Don't get defensive because someone wishes and needs to partake but can't. Charity isn't just to make the givers feel good, or for them to get mad when it seems like someone is trying to take away that feeling. When you're working but poor, a lot of that help is only available to the jobless and able bodied.
As I understand, this person is trying to say, that some people in a line can afford to buy food, which is given to them instead of people who actually need it. Second comment is just a typical hateful comment in today's Internet.
Only the person waiting the queue knows their circumstances. Both comments are spiteful.

If you HAVE a JOB with WAGES, maybe you're not as food insecure as the rest who will wait?
We’re saying “a chance” because there are certain rules you have to adhere to. After all, you do not want to embarrass yourself, the regift receiver, or the original gifter in front of everybody. So, here are the do’s and don’ts of regifting:
Do put the same amount of care and consideration into catering the gift. Don’t just regift something because you personally don’t like it or need it. Think whether the receiver would enjoy the gift and would have use for it. In other words, make sure it’s the type of gift you would actually buy for the person if you didn’t have it, if it’s something you’d spend money on. And if that’s the case, there’s no doubt you’re making the right decision.

How Else Are People Going To Buy Christmas Presents?
"taking people's money"?! What are they talking about? The seller said no
They should be giving it away for FREE! Selling ANYTHING is just “taking peoples’ money”! Gosh! XD
Load More Replies...Because healthy boundaries is not very christmassy and the time to take advantage of people all over the world
"I am selling the item for $2K." "Will you take $1K?" "No, the price is $2K as stated." "SCAMMER! SCAAAAAAAAM!!!"
Some people haven't noticed that almost everything is about money. When its not about money, you still need it. x
Used pianos aren’t worth much. It’s the moving and tuning that costs money. $2000 might be worth more like “free” in a few months.
Don’t regift to a person in the same social circle. That is, if you got a scarf from your aunt, don’t just pass it onto your cousin. There’s a high chance your aunt might see your cousin wearing it and have her feelings hurt. Instead, give it to one of your work friends that might appreciate it. That way you’ll avoid possible discovery.

Remember- the Grinch didn't hate Xmas. He hated people and just wanted to be left alone to live with his dog in a cave. I can relate.
Do keep it to yourself. You don’t have to tell the person you got the gift from that you are regifting it. Same goes for the person you are regifting it to. No one really needs to know. The only exception to this rule is if you have a very good relationship with the person and you know they will not take it poorly if you say, “This is actually a regift, but when I got this, I instantly thought of you.”
Free Christmas Isn’t Tall Or Full Enough…
But it's such a pretty tree 😞 I would have loved it if someone gifted me such a beautiful tree
I have chopped my own Charlie brown tree from the forest when funds were low. Entitled people can all jump on a boat together.
The first one, I was like, that's not bad, why is this on here? And then I saw there was a second part...
And... this is how they became bankrupt. Total lack of money sense and a hefty dose of entitlement
This request in itself doesn't sound bad... until they showed their true colors later.
Back when I was 19, on my own for the first time, and struggling, instead of looking the gift horse in the mouth, I would’ve been over the moon happy if someone had given me a free Christmas tree. Even though it probably wouldn’t have had a lot of decorations on it, except maybe something homemade I could cobble together, it would’ve been a whole lot better than no decorations at all—-which is what I had in my place for a lot of years, until I started making better money (translation: could afford more than just rent and bills and ramen), and could start accumulating Christmas decorations over several years. I now have a lot of different ornaments, lights, and other decorations and my house looks festive instead of bare—-and each one was chosen with care, and means something to me.

You need a refrigerator, but you don’t need “a couple good size crock pots” (start with 2-3 pots of different sizes and you can upgrade your kitchen when you can afford it) and definitely you don’t need a “white 6’ Christmas tree with lots of decorations”. All these are wants and if you can’t afford them, maybe try to downsize them to your budget.

I borrowed a small truck and ran my happy a*s over there lickity split before they changed their mind. It was an old one they had in their garage for holding meat and fish, they were hunters. It was a lil ugly and wasn't clean either, but it worked great. Took it home, cleaned it up, it was perfect. I was so f*****g grateful you have no idea
You really need some punctuation. This list sounds like someone who spent the Christmas money on something else.
Don’t regift personalized items. Sure, you might not like the way those monogrammed towels feel on your skin or you might think the engraved locket is tacky, but they’re all tell-tale signs that it’s a regifted item. DIY things also count as personalized items, so hold on to that knitted sweater, even if it doesn’t really flatter your frame. It’s all about the sentiment that went into it.
This Was On A Post About Giving Free Stuff For People In Need For Christmas
“Well, if you want my kid to have some quality time with their parent, you better give me a ps4. Otherwise, they will have to just play with their younger siblings while i play on MY ps4.”
So, they already *have* a PS4, but they “need” another one so they don’t have to share with their kids?
A friend gave me a retro system for my birthday last year. It cost less than $50, and I play it a lot!

Trying To Give Away A Free Trampoline But Ruining A Disabled Child's Christmas Instead

Do keep track of the things you want to regift. Dedicate a little space for the gifts that you know will not fit into your life and keep them there. Just make sure to put a note on each one with the name of the giver, so you don’t accidentally regift it to them.

Some Holiday Entitlement From A Zero Waste Group
I'd like to see the list before I judge them. If there are reasonable options in a wide price range, I agree with this. Too many people buy random rubble just to be able to say they gave a gift. And especially for young children and families in need this is devastating. No one, even if they hide it, is happy about useless c**p. Then better give nothing. But useful and thoughtful doesn't necessarily mean it has to be expensive. And it is high time we stop being so materialistic to believe that it is neccessary and enough to gift random clutter instead of either putting in some thoughts and give something nice. It's the thought that counts, the thought you put in to make people happy. If you don't put in some thoughts, a 10k diamond ring can be useless rubble.
I agree with you, but there is a way of saying it. And this is not it!
Load More Replies...In general, I don't see a problem with letting family know what they could get your child/ren for Christmas. But they should be seen as suggestions only, no obligation. I know I appreciated being told what nieces and nephews would like - even it being "Jane is into craft and loves colouring". It can be really helpful.
Yes, I see putting out a list. We do the same and everyone is generally appreciative because they don't have to guess what gifts my children would like. BUT I do not approach it with the rudeness of this poster. I say, "if you're looking for ideas on what to get..." I know my in laws went "off list" this year for my youngest son. They bought him toys he will consider too babyish. You know what I'm going to do about it? Nothing. Tell him to graciously accept and say Thank you.
Load More Replies...This is on a zero waste group and they are asking for advice on the wording-- they are trying to prevent an excess number of things they don't need from being purchased. It's less entitled and more trying to control the flow of goods into your house that will go to waste/not be used. Some relatives don't take "no presents" to heart.
I think this is totally fair, as long as the gifts asked for are not extravagant. Especially when my two were small, we got drowned in c**p gifts we didn't want or couldn't use because of relatives feeling obligated to buy presents. And often people feel it's best to think up their own choices because "it's the thought that counts", not the need. The OP is trying to set some firm boundaries so gifts are wanted and needed. Obviously it can be taken the wrong way, given that it ended up on this post though!
Set boundaries on presents? Really? Presents are not an obligation, so every person gives what they feel like, or what they can afford. She could have suggested nicely, but as it is, she sounds extremely entitled. I would give her nothing at all.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't most retired people on a fixed income? Also, most retirement homes, assisted living facilities, nursing homes and memory care facilities are hugely expensive - we're talking $2,000-$4,000 a month (or more), so why would anyone need to contribute to a holiday fund? Unbelievable.
Don’t leave any previous gift tags on the item. You don’t want to leave any traces that show that this was a gift for you. This might make people feel like they're an afterthought. So, remove any labels that indicate that.

Do repackage it. This is your chance to give the item a new life, so spruce it up. And because you saved time and money by choosing to regift something, you can allow yourself to put in extra effort there. We all know that getting a gift that’s nicely packaged makes it just a little more magical, so go all out.
It's An Okay Deal For Christmas Time But The Last Sentence Just [Ruins] It

Yeah, I don't think there's anything much wrong here. It's not begging, it's an offer to provide a fairly valuable service (good care for pets over the holiday season) in exchange for a comfortable vacation. Options like kennels or sth would probably be more expensive. It's fair enough that she's not offering free pet sitting at Christmas in exchange for just a bed. Why should she?

All in all, do not lose the holiday spirit. Share love and gratitude with people you encounter and wish them well. And if you come across a choosy beggar, wish them happy holidays and move on. Their bitterness is their to deal with.
A Christmas-Themed Tale Of One Entitled Woman's Quest For A Free Coffee Shop Journal
‘Wasn’t interested in their journals’ Oi, anyone know what this mean?
I *think* they might mean a loyalty card? Where you collect say 6 stickers and get a free drink.
Load More Replies...A lot of companies won't let staff hand out unwanted promo stickers to other customers as it undermines the promotion (and there can be staff fraud issues). A supermarket chain ran a promo recently where people could collect stickers towards pots and pans. We didn't need any pans but we'd just take the stickers and look for someone who looked like they could do with a bit of help (eg a pensioner on a fixed income, or a young family) and quietly give them the stickers if they were collecting them.
It's kinda funny, it's basically the other way around over here - in some places, there are even little collection bowls where you can put your stickers if you don't need them, and the next person can take them. Also, some cashiers don't care at all: most of the times it's one sticker per 5€ spent or so, but sometimes you spend, say, 7€ and they just tear off 8 stickers and hand them to you.

Free Christmas Gifts For Your Children And Free Money? Why Bother
This breaks my heart. Favorite Christmas was the year our shelter let us pick out two gifts for our moms. Free. I got her a blue sweater, and a pair of earrings. I don't even remember what she got me, because it was so nice to give for a chance. ( The dinner was horrible, but we were all in it together, and so grateful.)
Lee you sound like a beautiful person. I really hope things are easier for you now xx

You can do much better, imho you trying to maximize nutrition and such on 60, forgo the salad, get carrots green beans potatoes chicken ok pork probably cheaper, forget the soda that's costly garbage you and your kids don't need buy ingredients for making dessert and other, get staples like flour butter salt pepper milk. Basically learn to cook and get cheap things you can stretch but are tasty.

And they even got cash? What an ingrate. And oh. I CAN do a Xmas dinner on 60 dollars, and a pretty good one at that.
The Holidays Really Do Bring Out The Best In People Don’t They
I originally thought that derpy and Trixie were the kids, but it appears that they are mlp characters
I’m Trying To Get My Husband The 2 Gifts He Wants For Christmas But Please I Need Friends & Family To Actually Pay For It
Literally tagged almost 90 people in this??? Wow. Dude really thinks his name is Raymond and everybody loves him.
Here’s an idea, but sadly since it’s now too late, it’ll have to be for next year: Put aside $1 every day, starting on December 26th this year, and by next Christmas you’ll have $365 to buy your husband the “special” gift all by yourself. Start thinking about and saving for next year’s Christmas right after this year’s Christmas. All year long start picking up little items the people on your list will like as you see them, and while they’re not being sold at inflated Christmas season prices. All year long, set aside money for your Christmas budget, then keep to it. If you’re young and starting out, and can’t afford really big or expensive gifts right now, be patient. Work hard and eventually you’ll be better off and able to splash out at Christmas and for birthdays. Believe me, you’ll appreciate them so much more. (Also, if your relationship depends on you getting your SO an expensive gift, then it’s not a relationship worth keeping.)
This sort of post happens all the time in my community, all year long. In fact, this post probably IS from my community. It's always the same few people who do it over and over, and they always manage to get whatever they ask for. Not usually from me, though.
“Christmas for the books”? How about just buy a book and expand the mind.
Person Trying To Get Free Christmas Photos
How about a selfie and use a selfie stick to hot yourself in the head with to knock some sense into that empty brain.
I have a feeling that this person doesn't live alone with only cats by choice...

CB Wants A Very Specific Christmas Tree And Decorations But Doesn't Want To Pay. Feels Like A Choosy Beggar To Me
This doesn't really belong here. They found out their stuff was damaged and are just looking to see if anyone has something similar to get rid of. It doesn't hurt to ask. If they start talking s**t to people offering things, that would be a different story.
I agree. There are a number of community sites for people to buy, swap, or give away goods. Last year I had a huge clean out (nothing like losing your job to free up some time for these tasks!) and sorted outa lot of Christmas decorations we just didn't need any more. I bagged them up in colour themes and gave them away on a community site. Some people got some lovely decorations and I got space back in my garage.

Everytime I see the "you ruined my kids' Christmas!" messages, I just want to say good, I hate kids, bah humbug.
I'm glad I'm a grinch. I loathe Christmas and go all out creating a special time for my son. I make a note from Santa, we do reindeer food, bake cookies and leave out milk etc. Most of it costs time. The entitlement of these posts is beyond belief.
I enjoy mostly because of Christmas break from school.

Better than me I couldn't make it past 6 before I was disgusted at the ner5of some these entitled people.

I had a bet with my partner that 70% would be single mom/ruined my kids xmas posts. I haven't crunched the numbers but I think I won! (I have a kid btw not ragging on parents, ragging on people trying to use kids [real or made up] to manipulate others. My crotch goblin is my responsibility not someone else's) (Edited for typos)
I know I’m getting old but isn’t Christmas meant to be more about time spent with friends and family, this list just shows up bad parenting and grifters chancing their arms. Stay humble people, no one’s gonna remember the stuff you possessed on their deathbed, you will remember the times you shared with your nearest and dearest
Why do so, SO many people have children they can't afford to take care of? Use birth control.
I guess we're going to see these every year around this time. Anyway, it is truly bizarre that people think this behaviour is normal...and is probably why they haven't amounted to anything in life and have earned enough money to buy what they want.
