    I’m still confused how one gets shafted by an arsehole. Surely arseholes would be more likely to receive a shafting than give one.
    Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now about to become a Masters champion..... It looks like a mirac.. It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

    There's maybe more non-genuine people trying their luck with the attitude that if you can get away with it then who cares. It wasn't as bad back when all we had was the trading post, (watch "The Castle" if you've never heard of the trading post).
    You checked over the item, settled on the price then handed over the cash. It was buyer beware so after that you owned it end of story. Now people can change their mind or lie and leave negative feedback then get Ebay to get their money back. The days when you shook hands over a deal and then you wore it were way simpler.

    Haha! I suppose it is.

    I thought the ability to communicate in writing was meant to be a strength of previous generations but maybe it is the boomers who destroyed both that ability and the respeck.

    Was that on google too?

    Most millenials are only child’s, having a conversation with one about respect would be mostly pointless.

    ps. In my day, we didn't have to sign-up to a streaming service to watch 49 year old American sitcoms.

    There never was much point in talking to Lucy as she really didn't have great perspective.
