[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I am already paying $500 a summer for membership and that is the full extent of our pool budget. [/quote]

I'm sorry, but that is the most ridiculous excuse I have ever heard.  If you are in a situation where you can shell out $500 for a pool membership, I am guessing that you can find $15 from another part of your family budget to pay for your guests.  If you don't want to pay because you feel you shouldn't have to, that's one thing, but don't pretend you don't have the money.[/quote]

You all are funny!  I guess you'd rather be not invited.
Oh well.[/quote]

[b]I'd rather not be invited by an ungracious cheapskate ... if you pay the $500 to join but honestly can't afford $15 for the guests, you probably don't have any business spending the $500 in the first place if things are that tight.[/b]  :roll:  :shock:

At least the first time, the guests ought to be your guests, then they can cover it... IMO/IME[/quote]

Really? So, you're basically a taker?[/quote]

No, dipshit.

I'm a giver.  I'm the one who will pay for my guests, at least the first time, if not thereafter.

You get an "F" in reading comprehension and an "incomplete" in Social Skills.   :shock:   If someone invites me and then says, "BTW, you're paying" I may or may not go, but I know then I'm dealing with an ungracious person in either case.   Probably someone like you from the sound of it.  :roll: [/quote]

Ok, let's get something straight, twatwaffle: You said, and I quote, "I'd rather not be invited by an ungracious cheapskate."

That says a whole hell of a lot about you, none of it good.

So, take your hostile contempt and shove it in your rotting quim.[/quote]

LOL .. you clearly have no capacity to appreciate or see robust sarcasm.... no quim here, babycakes, rotting or otherwise, though you're sound like such a tough guy (or a fabulously mean girl  :roll: ), I'm just quivering... :shock:

Point is, such an invitation would tell a lot about the person making the invitation.  I was brought up with more class than to invite people as my guest and then hand them a bill. [/quote]
