What's your biggest scumbag move (lemm.ee)

I mean everyone must have done something they aren't super proud off.

As an example during primary school we had a class trip to the lake district (I'm from N Ireland) we were staying in an old victoriana style mansion (Rydal hall if I've remembered right.)

Anyway every one of us kids staying there decided it was haunted immediately and the guy I had to share a room with was so scared he made himself a crucifix out of basically twigs and strings.

I'm not sure why I did it but while he was sleeping I broke his crucifix apart and then put joke shop blood all over it. I woke up to him, crying this eyes out and just decided never to admit it was a joke or me who did it.

I'm interested in Similar stories.

Literally just kicked out a friend who's been staying at my house for months. I don't like it, but he has his own house with a housing voucher and will try to bullshit his way through anything. The dude's been camping my house smoking weed all day every day enjoying my house more than I get to and keeping the kitchen trashed.

I don't think it's my responsibility to save him from the hole he's dug one shovel full per day while expecting us to deal with it.

That sucks but it's not a dick move on your part. Was literally talking to a coworker who did that to a friend decades ago (he's in his early 60s) and said he would basically shack up in everyone's basement until they kicked him out. Sometimes weeks, sometimes months, living off others good will until none was left.

I know I'm not in the wrong, but I don't want things to suck for him. However, I want my space even more and can't abide being used like this.

This is not a scumbag move this is setting a very reasonable boundary. They can figure their own stuff out.
