Have you ever encountered anyone this cheeky?

This is just stunning. How on earth these people get to the heights of such entitlement I simply cannot imagine.

Mexican house-thief is clearly the winner on outright cheekiness, but I still love the thought of mad gooseberry lady best.

The outrage! All because you'd been so inconsiderate as to eat all of your own soft fruit!! None left for the casual thief!!!

Why did you let him stay there in the first place? I'd have told him to fuck off.

'We haven't spoken since, unless he wants to borrow something.'

Are you telling him to fuck off yet?

Who I should be grateful to him* even.

The most shocking part was that he didn't seem to think he had done anything wrong and that I would be completely ok with him having his own set of keys cut and visiting whenever he please because he 'fell in love with the area'.
He didn't seem to think it was at all unreasonable behaviour and actually pointed out all of the reasons why he should be grateful to me, things like replacing coffee filters and shower hell which they had used up!

'Asked me to look after her kids so she could go out. I said I didn't feel up to it. She dropped them at the end of our drive and drove off. Both kids were unwell and I ended up in hospital for a week after catching the flu from them.'

She's really lucky to have you, because Id have rung the police then and there and told them she abandoned them, because she had.

Ah, the Mexican house story wins the thread.

Game over!

:) more details....

I went up the aisle with my df, and then when the vicar said where are the rings? We looked round to see a little bridesmaid with them on a cushion coming up the aisle!

We had arranged for bil to have them but mil wanted dn to get involved, and went ahead as she was sure I wouldn't mind. I did. Me and dh were the only ones who didn't know and everyone else just assumed we did as it was all arranged and never came up in conversation!

My new bil and sil were horrified when they realised their dd was a stealth bridesmaid.

My next door but one neighbour is the ultimate in cheeky people.

in the 4 years that i have known him he regularly asks to borrow things, but he thinks that once permission have been given on one occasion that allows him to take the items whenever he pleases.
This includes him just going into my garage/shed/house and helping himself when he wants something, without asking.
I have asked him not to do this many, many times, but he still does it.

It all came to a head in October.

We own a house in Mexico, it is my favourite place in the world and isn't just a holiday house, to me it is my home. We have our clothes in the wardrobes, our food in the cupboards and family pictures on the walls.

We do however, occasionally allow close friends and family to stay in our house, because we are nice like that.
Two years ago SIL, her DH and their DCs went for a holiday there, they managed to get flights for a couple of hundred pounds and were really excited/proud of their amazing cheap holiday.
After they got back they came round for a barbecue, the neighbour 'popped over to say hi' ( which he always did just as we were sieving up the food) he was very impressed to hear about SILs super cheap amazing holiday and really enjoyed looking at her pictures.

The next morning the neighbour came round and told me that he was really impressed with SILs amazing holiday and had looked at the cost if flights to Mexico when he went home.
He told me that he had found some cheap flights and asked if he and his family could stay in our house.
I tried to be tactful and told him that we don't really like people staying there as its our home and not just a holiday house, and that we only let SIL go as it they don't have much money and if was their first holiday in 8 years.
The neighbour then spent the next couple of weeks begging me, telling me how they are broke and can't afford a holiday this year (they live in a five bed detached house and drive a merc and a BMW and he has a very good job, oh and they had already been abroad twice that year)
Finally I gave in and agreed. They went and had a lovely holiday.

Fast forward to last October.
My best friends mum (who I have known since I was 10 and who I call mum) went out for a holiday with her partner.
They had been there for a few days and came home one evening from a day out to find luggage in the hallway and some random people asleep in the beds.
BFM didn't wake them as she was afraid they were burglars as she snook out of the house and phoned me to ask if I knew what was going on and who they were. I obviously knew nothing so BFM called the local police.

The police arrived and woke up the random strangers and asked who they were and what they are doing in the house, they told the police that they are friends of the owners and had permission to be there. BFM told the police that they were lying as she had spoken to me, she was my family, and we had no idea who they were.
The random strangers and their children were escorted out if the house and taken to the local station. All the while ranting they they had permission to stay there and that it was BFM who they should be taking away.
I helped that one of the pictures on the wall is one of me my best friend and her mum, so it was obvious that they knew us.

The police called me and I confirmed what BFM had said, that she was they one with permission to be there and I had no idea who the random strangers were, and certainly hasn't given permission to anyone else as I only allowed family to stay in my home.

The policeman then told me who the people were.... It was the neighbour and his family!!
It turned out that he had made copies of my house keys and had visited my home for 6 holidays in the last two years!!!!

The best part was that after the police sorted it all out and let them go the neighbour and him family still expected to be able to stay in my house!
BFM had the locks changed and told the neighbour where to go.
But on the last day of her holiday they neighbour turned up to check if they were gone yet, because he wanted to move him family in as soon as she had left!

When the neighbour got home he came to bang on my door and rant about how I had ruined his holiday and how terrified his children were. How thanks to me they had be forced to stay in a horrible hotel and then he tried to present me with a bill for the hotel!
Basically he believed that because I forced him to stay in a hotel I should be responsible for the cost.

I was livid and told him that I gave him permission to stay in my house one time, not to use it as their own personal holiday home, and if anything I should be billing him for staying in my house.
He actually tried to act like he had done me a favour as he saw it that he had been 'looking after' my house while he was staying there.

We haven't spoken since, unless he wants to borrow something.

I now have someone that I pay to keep an eye on the place, just in case someone decided to take a free holiday again.

When I was a teen we lived in a nice quiet suburban cul de sac. One day mum went out to drive my siblings to school and the car was gone, had been nicked.

It was a bit of a scrapper, my dad called it "the put-put" and was just a runaround for mum to get about while dad's car was the 'main' car.

Police traced the car to the far side of town in a rough housing estate. The thief hadn't stolen the stereo or any of the tapes (this was in the 1990s before CDs!). Everything in the car was as we'd left it, including my brother's Thomas the Tank Engine toys in the back seat. The oddest thing was they'd put a steering lock on it so no one else could steal it! Mum never had a steering lock for it as she didn't think it was worth stealing!

So strange

I turned round at my wedding to see a little bridesmaid. Mil thought I wouldn't mind even though I said no bridesmaids.

Could you please elaborate on this? Justt for moe factor.

Lavender, nooo, really?

This thread is bad for my blood pressure but I'm strangely drawn to it.

When i first bought my flat (aged 24), i let a colleague's dd (19) move in. I'd always wanted a pet so got a kitten.

19yo fell in love and asked if she could get one too. I said yes providing she bought food, paid vet bills and stayed for at least a year. This was October.

For my birthday in November i was presented with a kitten in need of spaying (mine was male) and her notice

Then there was my bf at school who insisted i was to be her maid of honour at her wedding to the man i introduced her to and set her up with (weeks of angst from both over whether the other one liked them). By the wedding i was barely invited, and they stopped speaking to me immediately after because i was a stuck up snob - who travelled 2 hours home on the train from uni every couple of weeks so we could go to the pub where they alternately picked each others spots and talked about themselves. Took an average of 45 minutes to ask how i was each time, and i was in the middle of both my first year at uni and a vicious break up!

Bitter? Moi?

One of my neighbours is fond of being cheeky.

Whilst I was going through treatment for cancer she asked us to feed her cat when they went on holiday. When I said No she huffed and puffed and said Well who the hell am I supposed to use now?

She asked to borrow my car to drop her kids at school as hers wouldn't start. She was gone for 5 hours, did her weekly grocery shop and used half a tank of petrol.

Text me asking me to pop round as she had an emergency. Then handed me a shopping list and perscription to collect. She was feeling unwell and would I mind doing a few jobs for her.

Asked me to look after her kids so she could go out. I said I didn't feel up to it. She dropped them at the end of our drive and drove off. Both kids were unwell and I ended up in hospital for a week after catching the flu from them.

She offered to help with the school run when I had chemo appointments but then said she now couldn't be arsed as it didn't suit her.

I turned round at my wedding to see a little bridesmaid. Mil thought I wouldn't mind even though I said no bridesmaids.

That's it! The other extra guests were when one friend asked if she could bring her teenaged daughter. We said yes, so she did - and the daughters two pals!!!!

Oh dear accomModated.....

A man and his gf who came to our wedding despite not being invited!! We are from a rural area and most of HIS friends were coming but as he hadn't bothered coming to my fil's funeral a few months previous I thought oh well, he's obviously not THAT close a friend so didn't invite him. He came and was accomodated! In fact we invited 120 people and despite two two siblings not being able to make it we ended up with 124 guests.....

We got married abroad and had a reception back home for friends and family.My grandmother doesn't drive so my mum said that she'd arrange and pay for a taxi to and from the event for her.That wasn't good enough,my gran would only consider attending if my mum left along with her and accompanied her home.My mum pointed out that as mother of the bride,she couldn't disappear half way through my reception as it would be rude and as she didn't drive either,how would she get back or get home.

Gm tried emotional blackmail by weeping and going on about how awful it was that she was being prevented from attending her GD's wedding.I'd had a lifetime of this,so when she told me that she wouldn't be coming unless my mum stayed with her and came home at the same time,I just said 'that's a shame'.I refused to bend because she has run my mum ragged all her life and no way was I standing for it.GM was furious,and spent all the time leading up to the reception,telling everyone that it was her GD'S wedding,then when they said 'how nice,I bet you are looking forward to it',she'd put on the sad face and said that she wouldn't be going and made out that she hadn't been invited.I wasn't bothered because the people who knew her knew what she was like and the others who were fooled by the sweet little old lady act,I didn't care about their opinion.

She has form though,she bought 2 kids my mum had never seen before to my mum,her only daughter's wedding,because she was childminding them and didn't want to turn the money down.

My aunt moved into a downstairs flat, there was only one above her, it looks like a block of houses IYSWIM? The front doirs are next to each other and face onto tge car park. She has a garden and upstairs has a loft.

One day the bloke from upstairs came to her door and said he was going out the back to the garden. To do this he would have to go through her flat. When she asked why ge said he wanted to sit in the sun and they were to share the garden.

He was very offended when she laughed in his face.

I was 8 months prgnt with a toddler in tow. A friend, who also had a toddler asked me to collect her to go to a toddler gym as her dh had the car as he was working and it was an early class. I collected her, going a few miles out of my way and then back on myself for the class. Her husbands car was outside her house which I commented on as she could have got herself to the class " oh, he is very tired and having a rest"

She was also carrying a massive holdall and when I asked what it was for, didnt answer.

After the class, she went into the loos with her dd, kept me waiting for 20 mins, emerged dressesd up herself with her dd in a party frock and said could I drop her at the local posh hotel as her dh was treating her to lunch, again miles out of my way.

Invited me to her wedding then shouted at me for giving ds my slice of the wedding cake " it's not for children"

Another friend asked me if she could borrow my life savings to pay for her university course as otherwise she would have to sell her jewellery. I said no and she said I was mean and tight fisted.

Dm and dsis - I had a newborn in a very smart location and popular with tourists. They used to drive 2 hours to see me, come in, use the loo, have a cup of tea and leave. Took me 6 months to realise they went shopping after and wandered round the town, not driving straight home as I was led to believe.

I only found out as dsis said she had to rush back as it took 2 hours to get home , traffic was bad and she had to pick her dd up from school. It was a Saturday.

I am really glad I don't know any cheeky buggers as an adult. I did have a friend like this as a child/teen though, and I'm glad I cut contact when I did.

One time I really annoyed her because I pointed out after a 45min phone call I hadn't actually said a single word since "hi"!

What finally made me realise that she was all take take take was when I was 14 - I had helped her memorising words for a play, spent so long on it I still remember the speech now! Then when I asked her to just listen once to my 15min presentation (English HW) she suddenly urgently had to go watch big brother - which incidentally she had never watched before and the series was nearly finished

A small thing I know (though it felt huge at the time since school is such a massive part of life), nothing like many of the gobsmacking posts on this thread, but to me it totally summed up her attitude and I still remember the sudden epiphany as I hung up the phone, that it had always been, and would always be, about her. I loved her dearly but it didn't take long to cut contact after that, and I'm sure if I hadn't I would have many more examples to write on this thread!
