They’re free! And available in all good character..

I don’t think it’s too much to ask that when offering things for free - karma - gratis that any potential recipients of free items use such pleasantries as ‘please’, ‘thank you’ etc… for me, expressions such as ‘I’ll take it’, ‘that’ll do’ etc carry a somewhat antagonising stench of entitlement.. and I find it very difficult to respond to such messages, hence don’t be surprised if I ignore them..

it happens so often and really surprises me, I’m sorry if this upsets or alienates some people.. perhaps I’m just old fashioned..

I’ll get off my soap box now.. enjoy your evening..

Not even a "thank you" at the end?

Or responses to wanted ads with no price, asking for an offer and then ignoring the offer.

I read that as ‘asking for an otter’, but that would be the mammals not manners thread

 

[The History Man]

Is that a chicken tarka masala?

Like a tikka only a little otter.
