25. Blame It On The Grain (served on 9-grain rolls)

[continuousgroaning]

so i'm sure you all have figured out by now that the gift delivery app I was endorsing was a dud

turns out the guy who made it and his "team" had no real idea what they were doing and are just a bunch of people with a bunch of money and nothing better to do than jump from one "grand moneymaking idea" to the next

anyway the app has been shut down and the guy won't return my calls or issue an apology for all the wasted time and money and possibly arguments that got started so i guess it's down to me

i'm sorry

like I know in the grand scheme of things it's minor and nobody really got hurt? but i feel like an idiot and i'm not going to be endorsing anything else again for a long while

time to go to the woods and become the wild horse queen i was always meant to be

No big.

I just propositioned a lot of people.

Which actually wasn’t weird enough to alarm anyone.

[continuousgroaning]

[This Pure Child doesn't quite know what "proposition" means in this context, so she's just going to wing it for now.]

as long as it wasn't strange, I guess it could have been worse, then?

[madlove]

[ Well. Tina’s going on the list of people getting a giant, over-the-top Easter basket this year. ]

No strange was had. Cross my heart.

Look at it this way. You’re an entrepreneur. There are always bobbles at the beginning.

[continuousgroaning]

good!

yeah, i guess so! I could look at it as a learning experience and do better to look into people before just agreeing to things

[madlove]

There you go!

Get. it. girl.

You've got this. It's just time to move onto the next thing.

[measuringdicks]

so someone fucked up and they didn't tell you about it
not something you should be sorry about
that's their fuck-up and not yours, they didn't tell you shit so you don't owe anyone shit in their place

[continuousgroaning]

yeah, i guess I shouldn't hold myself responsible! but i still feel bad

this will teach me to not agree to endorse something just because the guy is cute

of course I may need to learn that lesson again a few more times if i'm not careful

[measuringdicks]

don’t feel bad, get revenge
if he’s the one who fucked up on it, get on the next app he puts out and then rip it to shreds and shit all over those on TV
we’re imPorts you’re kinda famous enough to pull that off

[continuousgroaning]

hey yeah!! i could review bomb it, too

making people like that lose money seems to get under their skin more than anything else

[measuringdicks]

fuck yeah, do that
I'll help, you need a ton of bad reviews to get him to lose money, right?

This one is confused. Is the one who wrote this missive issuing a warning or asking for help in gaining restitution? Or something else Khajiit is unable to glean from the text?

[Tina smiles in return.]

I'm mostly apologizing for any embarrassment people felt. See, I signed up to endorse a service that sent people gifts and flowers, but it ended up not working quite right. Some people got misdeliveries or totally wrong orders. So I feel like it's my responsibility to apologize, since I told people to use this service to begin with.

Re: Video

[unrepentantsoul]

Ah. That is sensible. Will the young human be repaying those deceived or have the authorities waived her responsibility in the matter? She is very young, so Khajiit would not be surprised to hear it.

[continuousgroaning]

I'm pretty sure my responsibility has been forgiven. You're right- I am pretty young. I'm not the one who created the service, either. And nobody seems to be asking me to pay them back... ... thank goodness.

Re: Video

[unrepentantsoul]

That seems the sensible path. The little one is fortunate she is not culpable. She should, however, pay more attention to those she urges her friends to buy from. Youth and inexperience is often exploited. A sadness, but a truth.

[continuousgroaning]

I really need to stop chasing butts

[golisolation]

nvr stop chasin ass

but this aint just u this douche is disrespectin where he @

[Sorry Tina, but you're part of Skull. Skull looks out for their own.]

[continuousgroaning]

yeah, that's gonna be hard to do. maybe be more choosy about whoe butts i chase?

see, i'm not sure. i can send you the address of the office in MF where we met but it's all locked up

[usaf]

Hey, I got free donuts out of it, so you're absolved in my book.

[continuousgroaning]

that is definitely a win!! but thanks, it's good to know it wasn't all bad stuff

[usaf]

In the end, even the people who got the wrong deliveries were still getting free flowers/sweets, so it can't be all that bad.

Don't go beating yourself up about it, is all I'm saying.

[continuousgroaning]

and there are worse things than free stuff

like endless glitter bombs

yeah I guess I should just look at it as a learning experience

[mostlyprofessional]

For what it's worth, I thought it was brilliant.

[Because it was hilarious, so this may not be worth much.]

Besides, aren't you a little young to be a wild horse queen? A princess, surely.

[continuousgroaning]

thanks. i feel like this is something i'll be able to laugh about eventually, at least

nah, I like being a queen. as long as the horses accept me as such, though
