Sorry if I missed something here...what is everything else? Does she need to buy (have money for) a ticket only, and/or travel, hotel, transportation, meals, etc. as well?

I'm not being an asshole, by the way. Just like to know what's what

She has a place to stay, a friend of hers has airline travel covered, we here covered babysitting costs.. Now she just needs a set if tix at face value for Phoenix. It would mean so much to be able to say, see?? Not all people are jerks.. That's all.

Actually its not.
I once saw some ding-a-ling come on here begging people to pay for her air-fare, so she could go to a show.
Talk about "Balls".

There are always generous people in this world.
And even more people who are ready to take advantage of those generous people.

It was particularly hilarious because at the same time he was asking for donations to feed his family, he was making inquiries about buying a show poster on another thread.

Donate money.
And if you call me out you are an "asshole" and a "douche"

It got locked. I posted his thread in there where he was asking about a poster, and not long after it got locked.

Laugh all you want. I did something nice for someone that wasn't expecting it.

And she is really happy that someone cared enough to even attempt this. She NEVER asks people for anything.. I just thought she deserves to have at least one good day where someone did something cool and out if the blue that out a smile on her face. And I've done that. Thanks to the others who helped me make this happen!!

exactly

perhaps she should call out all those that so generously donated $$$ and frequent flyer miles for a mom to ditch her kids to travel to a PJ show? they at least deserve public acknowledgement of what upstanding great people they are! that way everyone can distinguish how very special she and her donors are from the assholes, douches, and what other name did she use? those who donate to real causes oh that's right...she called us shitbags



edit: btw the OP probably shouldn't be bragging on facebook that SHE just added another show :fp:

wonder if the donations she solicited to cover "her friend's babysitting expenses" is $ she's put aside to buy swag? :twisted:

Ok. Done deal. Lock it up. By the way. I hope you all had fun making fun of me! God knows that seems to be my purpose in life, is to by my good nature alone, be entertainment to the rest of the world. I am NOT stupid, and in every way recognize that this looks like a scam. But I know, I am who I am, that I will never steal, I don't lie, and I could not ever cheat something out of some one. I have had these things done to me all my life by those who were supposed to care most for me. I could never bring that into anyone else's life. I did a good thing for someone, that needed a bright day.. A light at the end of the tunnel.. And it really hurts my feelings that you all have the gall to call this girl a bad mother, or myself a cheat. But that's ok. I know the worst of the world, and by comparison, the mean hateful things said on here, not only by you people, but by myself as well, is nothing in the big picture. I thank those who helped me make someone's year , after a consistency of hardship after hardship after hardship.. You are too kind, and make putting up with the others out there more bearable. Everybody else?? Keep making fun of people.. Let's see how many people you can hurt.. Maybe you could have a contest?? See every body in Dallas and OKC. Cause you can hurt me, but ya can't fucking break me!!

And to my lovely friend.. I hope you have a blast in Phoenix!! God knows if anyone deserves this it's you!!


Ok Kat, Sea. Lock this bitch up!! Thank you!

Hey speedy. You got any money you can donate to me? My wife went out with her mom yesterday and spent 270$ on shit that's gonna clutter my house.

PureandEasy

alright, enough all ready guys.

I think you're doing a nice thing Whispering Hands. Probably not the greatest idea to ask for help here, but I don't think you deserved all smart ass replies.

I hope your friend enjoys the Phoenix show. She's lucky to have you as a friend.

You've been around here long enough that people should know you're not scamming them.
