Ay Yo! Can I Borrow That?
 

What is the craziest stuff someone has ever asked to borrow from you?


This is the only example I can come up with:

LOL. . . freshman year my CAUCASIAN roommate asked to borrow some lotion. I said sure go ahead. . . I had 10 bottles of Jergens plus it was the end of the year.

She looked on the dresser and said, "NO I MEAN SUNTAN LOTION." :eek: :eek: http://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/l...smiley-016.gifhttp://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/l...smiley-016.gif


I looked up from the bed and said, "Rachael I was born with my tan." http://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/l...smiley-016.gifhttp://www.clicksmilie.de/sammlung/l...smiley-016.gif

I have to agree with my soror SensativAF. That is :D

An eyelash curler. I was like, what? I don't use that type of mess. My eyelashes are naturally curled!

The craziest thing anyone tried to "borrow" from me...a little background first.

When one of my closest friends graduated she moved to Boston with her pseudo man. Dude is thugged out (not a bad guy, but ya know), and I trust him bout as far as I can throw him. So anyway, he comes back down here to visit some of his fam and calls me up.

"Ay yo, Librasoul...I need you to go rent a car for me cuz I ain't got no credit card."

Now, what possessed him to think that I would put a rented car under MY name, making ME responsible?? Um, try NO.

ALSO when people ask to borrow my car. I NEVER let anyone drive my car. EVER. Do NOT ask.

This is not really crazy, but My husband and I had a decorative broom made for our wedding (we jumped the broom). It now hangs in our breakfast nook. A "friend" asked to borrow it for her wedding. Now, I would have let her borrow it if her wedding was in town, but she was going to the Caymans! I told her no, I did not feel comfortable with it going out of the country and she had the nerve to get all mad!! I even gave her the information of the person who made mine, but she did not want to go that route. I told her sorry, but people aways reserve the right to say "no" when you ask for something. :rolleyes:

AMEN!!!!! And how about those people that ask you to co-sign on a car loan??? I got burned once...NEVER AGAIN!!!

I won't say borrowing, but this is along the lines of it.

Many people have asked me for very petty stuff (pencils, maxi pads, 5 of my french fries :eek:, rubberbands/scrunchies, etc.) and promised me they'll pay me (10 cents) back for it. It's not worth it, just take it, keep your nickel/dime/quater, lol.

At least you friends borrow inanimate objects
 

A male friend of mine asked to borrow my puppy so he could pick up girls in the park. Geesh...

In high school, after gym class, some girl that I didn't know asked if she could borrow my deodorant. Did she really think that I was going to let her rub my Secret all over her hairy, sweaty underarms and then give it back to me? How bout, No!

My college roommate asked to use my hairgrease, shower gel, my pin number to my telephone, an iron, a skillet.

One of my co-workers approached me on day 3 of my new gig last year and asked me for a tampon.

My friend asked for my suit case, and she kept it for so long I just let her have it. Then she borrowed my TD Jakes CD the Storm is Over, and I had to ask for that back after 3 months.

No one has been brave enough outside my mother and brother to ask me for money............THANK GOD!

How about some one asking if they could borrow your Chapstick:eek: :eek: :eek: :mad:

I remember on my senior class trip (h.s.) that my male friend's roommate asked if he could borrow his toothbrush!!! And to top it off, his teeth looked like they had NEVER met one! :o :eek:

How about when folks ask to borrow your lipgloss? I don't know where your mouth has been and I don't want to get your stinkin' germs!!:p :rolleyes: :confused:

I just had to share this...
 

My former neighbor's were the King and Queen of borrowing. This is just a sample of some of the stuff they borrowed:

Peppermint
Lemons
Pepper
Toliet Paper
the daily Newspaper
toothpicks
Ketchup

Luckily, I moved!!!!!!!

Talkin' bout irony:
I saved and bought a pair of $325 gucci shoes. I hadn't worn them yet and my eldest sister wanted to borrow them. She is sweet as molassas and I love her to death but I was not trying to let her in my shoes.

End of story right?
Sure enough, time passed and I eventually let her wear my shoes to her daughter's christening. Her plump butterball foot stretched out my shoes.:eek:

Moral of the story:
Don't buy $300 shoes you say? Wrong. The moral of the story is don't lend it if they can't or probably won't be able to replace/repair it.

The Dilemna:
They don't have a snug fit anymore.:mad: I'm pissed. I know my sister is going to end up with my fabulous footwear.

Sounds like your sister knew exactly what she was doing. :D

I had a childhood friend call me on Friday & ask me if I had a laptop & if so could she borrow it. Nothing wrong w/that, right?

Well she lives in ALABAMA & I live in ATLANTA! She's in some type of accelerated degree program and I guess she needs one. Sorry, I can't help ya!

I hate to even tell anyone this, but it may brighten someone's day.

The other day after I had my car worked on, I noticed that one of my hubcaps was missing. (I was already home. I'm pretty sure I lost it on the highway or something.) Anyway, I was planning on going to St. Louis this weekend (I'm there now BTW) and I didn't want to go with a hubcap missing. My uncle who lives down the road from me has the exact same hubcaps on his car that he never drives. So....... Do I really need to finish this story?

Well I have a list a things people have asked me to borrow going back as far as high school, and I tend to give people what they ask I am just to nice!

I was in hair school in high school for one year and decided not to do the second year, my best friend decided to stay in for the second year but didn' want to buy a new uniform and nurses shoes so she asked to borrow mine (outfit and shoes), I stopped for a minute and said I wear a size 12 in clothes and a 7 1/2 in shoes you wear an size 8 both in clothes and shoes, she said so and I said I guess so.

I have had a friend as to borrow panyhose

shoes, purses, sweaters, socks, money non of which I ever got back

In college people asked to borrow food, iron, makeup, belts and clothes , hair stuff

Its get worse when they want to borrow your Carmex, the kind that comes in the pot meaning you have to stick your finger in it. :eek: :mad:

YUCK!!!!!

My sands asked to borrow my microwave?!?!?!

Was she going to carry it all the way to her spot? She could just bring said food to your spot, cook, and eat.

:o

LMAO like the chick Felicia from Friday.

Craig! Can I borrow your microwave? I need to cook some chicken!

Someone once asked me could they get a swig of my mouthwash...ahhh hells nah. :mad:

I don't drink after people even if it's mouthwash. :rolleyes:

LMAO!!!! No, she took it to a hotel so she could heat up some food she cooked. She was on a get-a-way with her boo. She didn't tell me in advance what she was using it for and I didn't ask any questions but I could have told her that most hotels come with microwaves in the rooms.

or at least downstairs in the lobby.


Sounds like she might have been heating up some freaky deaky stuff for her boo. :eek: I would have SANITIZED my microwave afterwards.:o

Update: I gave her the shoes for mother's day:) . It was oh so hard to say goodbye ... but she had the nerve to ask for the matching bag. I'm sweet but I'm not a sucker :o.

TTT

anyone?? anyone??


:D

Asking for the Unthinkable...
 

There are some nasty people in the world but none nastier than this "friend" I once had.

All my friends know that my mother is an OB/GYN and most of the time if someone has a problem with anything they usually go to her. One day a friend of mine asked me if she could borrow a diaphram (think about it people). First of all I dont use those and secondly if i did, was she really gonna use it after me? I dont know but this girl had the nerve to get mad at me and has not talked to me since then (about 2 years ago) and now blames me cuz she got pregnant..

Is that ignorant or what???
Lemme Know

One:;)

Re: Asking for the Unthinkable...
 

:eek: :eek:
the nerve of some people

I think that is so crazy! Some one asked me could they use my lipgloss before and I thought they were crazy. I don't know where her lips been :p . lol Nasty

Underwear! :mad: (This happened in college) Didn't even ask - just took them and tried to put them back in my drawer. I was like - "Noooo sireee bob. They're yours now."

Oh no no no girl
 

Ooooh this takes the cake.

My sophomore year after I crossed, my non-Greek friend wanted to borrow my DST Jacket to wear to class. She claims that she left her jacket at home and she didnt want to go all the way back to get it. I looked at her like she was CRAZY. :eek: Out of ALL the jackets I own why in the world did she want to borrow that one.:mad: :mad: :mad:

Re: Oh no no no girl
 

why..indeed:p :p
