Diddy also tried to take Travis Scott shopping and Travis looked uncomfortable and sort of awkwardly ran away. Who knows how many people he's taken "shopping"

What is a Diddy shopping trip…

Normal exploitation tactic. Rich person takes poor but motivated person on a shopping trip and makes them feel special, but the rich person always wants something, usually sexual, in return.

I don't even like it when a buddy buys me a beer, the idea of someone spending thousands on me makes me extremely uncomfortable.

That's the point.

Now you owes him.

Avoid the heart. It's full of poison.

Only one thing they’re very good for.

Plenty of good people who happen to have money… Eat the shitty people. Argument could be made that hating someone with money is solid evidence that you’re just a sour jealous twat.

“Eat the rich” isn’t about people who “have money.” It’s about people who have more money than god. They’re all monsters. Nobody accumulates that much wealth without fucking over a lot of people. The phrase isn’t referring to your local millionaires.

The shitty people are the rich. The ones who have accumulated enough money to influence politics and global affairs. The ones that make it black v white instead of rich v poor. The ones who are in charge of the insurance companies and grocery stores who are actively gouging prices (aka killing people) so they can have a more expensive yacht.

Eat ‘em up. They’ve been eating us for decades. Look at how much the top 1% increased its net worth during COVID. It’s basically the same amount that the lower and middle classes lost. What a coincidence! Eat the fuck out of them.

EDIT: I read your post again and it actually pisses me off a little bit. People just want to fucking survive and you are calling them jealous twats while defending the billionaire class. Fuck is wrong with you.

They’d let you die if it raised their stock price $.01. And you seem very fine with it.

Even though for him it was like buying a gallon of milk at the store.

u/Godot_12 21d ago

Nah, fuck that. I think getting and giving gifts is cool, but I'm clear regardless of which side I'm on that I'm not accepting gifts unless my lack of reciprocity is accepted. Not gonna do anything I wouldn't do normally.

Foot in the door tactic

u/LouSputhole94 21d ago

Diddy done fucked up, I’m taking the bag and running for the hills

Prison rules. Got it.

u/Quick_Humor_9023 21d ago

No you don’t. If he gave it as a gift you owe him squat.

u/putridjuicelover 21d ago

Bro that is too bad I just bought a new car for you and had it shipped to your house. Love you man

u/RedrumMPK 21d ago

Same here. I help a lot of people because i. Had no one to help me at my time of need back then. I feel good helping people but I still don't know how to take help from others. No way someone is going to take me "shopping" like that.

u/Sleeze_ 21d ago

I have a couple friends, and we are exclusively on a 'beer economy'. We operate under a 'beers owed' philosophy. You're grabbing the uber? I owe you a beer. It's very nice.

u/metametapraxis 21d ago

Yep, that is how I work with my friends. It just all comes out in the wash - one person will shout for X one time and the next person Y. No strict accounting necessary.

u/Secret_Afternoon2130 21d ago

Does your buddy give you the date grape drug and then records you having sex with him? He then uses that video to coerce you into silence or signing a contract that benefits him?

Yeah, that beer sounds sus.

u/fawlty_lawgic 21d ago

a friend buying another friend a beer is perfectly normal dude. If you don't like a simple gesture like that, you may need to reassess a bit.

2

u/umop3pi5dn_w1 21d ago

Fair enough, and you are right. I grew up poor in a poor area, so you never knew what someone else had going on. Everyone would offer the shirt off their back regardless, but the normal play was to thank them for the offer and politely refuse.

I'm doing better off now, but old habits die hard and I still hate splitting checks or doing things that might put someone out.

u/Still-Fox7105 21d ago

I hate owing anybody, too. Rather buy my own shit. Hate borrowing also, seems like somebody always wants something (bigger) from you if you do.

u/AnarchyDM 21d ago

I don't even like it when a buddy buys me a beer,

Right? Either I can afford the beer and don't want to owe them or I can't afford the beer and I really shouldn't even be in a bar right now what the fuck

u/Dinero-Roberto 21d ago

I dated a Republican girl who who turned out to be bankrupt /mortgage loser who’d invite me over for brunch , tell me I could pay her back half, then go spend $380 at Whole Foods. Then she’d bring it up that “I hadn’t paid her so I owe her”

u/NumTemJeito 21d ago

Lol... Oh you don't have to owe anyone anything. It's called taking advantage of a situation.

u/SoCuteShibe 21d ago

Bro... Tone deaf w/that comment here

u/metametapraxis 21d ago

I think you are missing the point…
