That’s fair. Unique stays are cool.

I’ve seen stuff like that too. I saw the biggest cockroach of my life in one as well.

Yeah all of that is true. Also in a hotel room if you have a problem you can ask for a new room or for other help. At Airbnbs I have had several issues and then not gotten a response from the host, for hours. Sometimes even happened preventing checkin. Saw some crazy filth and had my car broken into at Airbnbs, been told a parking spot was included then basically told to get over it when that wasn’t true (and this was in a city with very expensive parking). It’s just way too unreliable. I agree, long ago it was a good service but a lot of the reason I liked it then was the price and now that’s not even good.

So mysterious.

Agreed

True. The last time I remember doing that, though, the house rules literally required us to bring our own towels and sheets.

I found that ridiculous.

Most LAMF post ever.

Give them a couple days to acclimate to the new cult rationalizations.

Yep. I gave up on Airbnb years ago. So many memorably bad experiences and they rarely even save you money, and that’s been true a long time.

Why do people keep paying extra when 90% of the appeal used to be saving money?

Another copy of this fake…?

Dafuq

see. There they are.

See, I tried to start something on purpose and then that happened! It’s these other evil people who are the problem!

It’s both. It’s always been both. Since even 2016 he’s been a mentally deteriorating sociopath.

Yep. The s on the right is lowercase also.

They apparently just made some shit up so they could be mad at me or something. People are strange.

Interesting. So there are exceptions to what I said, but I think OP would’ve mentioned it if that applied here.

Have you asked yourself why you feel this way? Names literally exist to be used. No cultural norm I am aware of prohibits their use, other than it would be weird in limited contexts like if you called your parents by their names. But even that is not universal. A stranger using your name is not disrespectful in the least, so getting mad about that seems like a problem.

Yeah you’re right about all this. It is one of the major reasons I typically get my games from steam. Too much risk and hassle to pirate games now. That was for 20 year old me, who had no money and had plenty of time to fix a busted machine.

Doesn’t make it not a malicious thing though

now I get it!
