Unexpected use of holiday home

[Puzzledandpissedoff]

Not quite Mexican House Thief - at least not yet! - but I'm trying no to get dragged into this and would welcome anyone's advice

Friend A has a holiday home in Florida and was persuaded to offer it to son of Friend B for a free fortnight's holiday with his girlfriend
Friend B's son (23) invited a load of mates to go instead, claiming his GF couldn't make it, but didn't tell A about this
Friend A - who's only just discovered this - has said no to the mates, some of whom are very dubious (a couple have convictions for affray)
Both B and her son insist flights to Orlando are all paid for, so it's now not fair to refuse them

As C I'm close to all of them, and though I'm trying to stay out of it I'm getting my ear thoroughly bent by everyone, expecting me to take sides. FWIW I believe B's son has been pretty deceitful over this and shouldn't expect to dictate who stays at someone else's home, but would be interested in the MN verdict

YABU = since flights are now paid for they should be allowed to go
YANBU = A should say no because she wasn't told those going had changed

Well done for a sticking up for herself

@Lweji How can you scream on a forum you clown?!

I have read the full thread Thankyou very much (F does stand for Full ) it was my opinion. OP’s friend - the owner - asked OP to post the thread on her behalf

RTFT!!!!!

Capitals is Internet forum for shouting, I believe.

And it really isn’t ‘full’ thread. Not in MN.

@Shesalittlemadam

Some people use software which reads text out to them.
Anything in capitals is shouting.

Good grief, @Shesalittlemadam - no need to be quite so aggressive in your posts!

F does stand for Full

No it doesn't.

@Shesalittlemadam

If you do read the fucking thread, you'll find that the OP's friend has already cashed the cheque.

I have a flat in Central London that we no longer let friends use, due to huge piss taking - broken washing machine and microwave, no tea, coffee, toilet paper left in the flat (our only stipulation was that they replaced basics such as these), dirty bedding left on the beds, towels ruined... and these were our friends!

Anyone who asks to use someone's house for free is a CFer and the likelihood of their also disrespecting the property is very great.

For the very dense people w it the poor reading comprehension - when I posted my original comment, the cheque had NOT been cancelled!

Also, if I wish to use all capitals, I will do! I do not need any permission not do I need to explain myself 😘👍

Ahem, it had, ages ago.

Of course you can shout all you like. But everyone else can also post what they like (almost).

How can you scream on a forum you clown?!
By using all capitals. This has been the case for at least the last 20 years.

I have read the full thread Thankyou very much (F does stand for Full hmm)
Nope. It stands for fucking.

Well she went to see her friend and discussed it a day or two ago.

Do what you like but be aware it is rude.

No you are right, you don't. But likewise other posters will rip the piss out of you for poor netiquette - so it cuts both ways

Well using capitals on the internet is shouting. So you’ll be considered as rude, basically.

But going by your posts, that won’t really bother you

”For the very dense people w it the poor reading comprehension - when I posted my original comment, the cheque had NOT been cancelled!”

@Shesalittlemadam - you posted (screamed) on this thread for the first time on Tuesday at 11.06am. The OP told us this was all sorted two days before that, on Sunday evening. But don’t worry, no-one will be holding their breath waiting for you to apologise for the ‘poor reading comprehension’ crack.

Well using capitals on the internet is shouting. So you’ll be considered as rude, basically.

You can get filters for text-to-speech engines that ignore all caps posting. I like to think of it as a form of AI ....

@Shesalittlemadam do you need a ((((Hug))) Sweetpea ?

So the question is... Did the boys actually cancel or did things fall out so much that you don't know? March is going to be interesting either way
