Why, yes, I DO have the audacity to ask for money in return for doing art for someone. And yes, I DO love doing art. In fact, you're 100% right, even if I wasn't doing a commission, I WOULD still be making art. Think of it this way - you're not paying me to MAKE art, you're paying to choose WHAT art I'll make.
Apparently me not wanting to make family art “out of the kindness of my heart!”makes me a selfish bitch. Keep in mind it’s usually for relatives who don’t ever talk to me unless they want me to do something.
Damien's Chills voice is absolutely perfect. I couldn't even tell if it's Damien, or if he offered Chills 1$ to read all of that (because we are on r/choosingbeggars, so 1$ is perfect)
@@weirdestcore Hey, I did request for a shoutout in the description of something recently. I paid for an advertisement with a podcast and I noticed all of the other stuff they were advertising had a mention in the description so I asked the guy if there was any way I could get that as well.
I had a friend in Med school that bought me pizza and I cried. I was so hungry and it touched my heart that she bought me a large pizza! We’re still friends but she moved pretty far. But friends like that, that are willing to do that shit. Don’t let go of them
People who say things like ‘you don’t need the money, so I deserve this for free’ probably grew up in a mansion with no concept of how people get things or that other people don’t have as much money as them. They also probably decided to text their friends in other classes when they were learning economics.
7:45 100% agree. I had a ‘friend’ who used to get angry and go “I never liked you anyway”, “I never wanted to be your friend, you’re the clingy one” and “it’s your fault you listen to what I say”. It’s hilarious to hear this when it’s so obviously not the case.
Honestly the hand cream story was a rollercoaster. At the absolute very least, she had the where-with-all to understand the hypocrisy and and then pay you without being asked, I'll give her props for actually understanding that she was wrong, even if she couldn't physically admit it.
I was once a paid singer for a church (not my church). Some of the people at my daily job were appalled that I would take money from a church. When I asked them if their church paid their organist, they said yes. When asked what is the difference, they said that the organist is a musician. So, what am I, chopped liver?
I think they just believe they can coax you to let them have what they want, or just don't wanna deal with "Inconveniences" There's even people who try telling you that they don't need to comply with security protocols because they come there all the time
7:28 Yeah, I believe that's what Aesop meant by "sour grapes." Remember that old fable? The fox keeps trying to get at the grapes because he really wants to eat them and they look delicious, but he keeps flubbing every one of his attempts to get the grapes, so he says, "Meh! The grapes are probably sour and they suck anyway!" So for what it's worth, just know that the Ancient Greeks had to deal with that about-face bullshit too. 😉
Someone who worked with a shelter here. We give animals for free (of course, after an interview to be sure the new owner can properly care for it), they're all neutered and healthy, but if you come with a list of requirements we will be wary of you and will require even more proof regarding your ability to care for said pet. Example: Susan comes asking for a small dog because she lives in an apartment, preferably one that knows to pee in those mats. Usual paperwork, normal interview. Susan will probably get a couple of visits during the trial period (as it's our standard) and she will probably get her dog within a month. Karen contacts us demanding a male siamese or ragdoll, 2 week old kitten, neutered, litter trained, affectionate, who likes laps and interacts well with kids. Interview will be longer with questions similar to "you have a very specific animal in mind, would you mind telling me why? Is there a story behind it?" And we will enforce the paperwork's five visits. Usually huge requirements are the first sign of a person who will return the animal if they dislike any little behavior, and unless someone is just hesitant because of a bad previous adoption we will try our best to make the person rethink adopting. Plus, tiny animals can and usually do change personality when growing up. If someone wants a cuddly cat or dog they must get one that's at least 6 months. TLDR: if you come with a huge requirement list for adopting a pet we will try our best to stop you from getting the pet because they might be the best fit for you but you're probably not the best fit for them.
@@elhazthorn918 and you're right! We tell everyone that if they don't want the pet after all to please return it and also talk it out with us, no matter how long ago they adopted. Some people take puppies and return them as adults because it's too much trouble and they lost the "puppy appeal" (these are usually blacklisted and cant adopt from us anymore), some people lose homes or are moving and we offer options for sheltering pets if it's just temporary, but also there's always an asshole or two that just leave their adopted pets on the streets instead of calling us. Even with the long adoption process and we telling them to please contact us if they don't want the pet anymore, there were at least 3 animals that were adopted and abandoned and we found them later. I wonder how many we *don't* find out in time :(
It's sad how 50$ is a really good deal for realistic (or any kind of Art really) art, and those people still say "But i wanna have it for [insert shitty price]!" like dude come on that price is epic!
I’ve started to learn wood carving. It’s been challenging. That idiot wanted 20 carved pieces and a cake topper in one week? I just don’t get people. And I bet she wasn’t going to pay for the wood, either.
"No pit mix" I will literally fight them, pit bulls are the sweetest fucking dogs and I'm sick of the stigma just bc they "look scary" and have a bad rep. Dog fights use all breeds of dogs, not just pit bulls, so people need to quit with the bs. You're more likely to be bit by a Chihuahua.
Too true, if not raised by a complete ass hat, pitbulls are the sweetest little marshmallows that you could ever run into. That being said, there are bad apples, but those exist in every facet of every species of literally everything, so it's unavoidable, but that doesn't mean they should be demonized for it, they just need a little extra love and care and they'll more than likely turn their entire disposition around, thus making them sweet little marshmallows as well.
my dad had a pitty mix and she is the sweetest thing, her name is Athena :) she is protective so she growls at mailmen sometimes but other than that shes a sweetheart
Yeah, I worked for a vet's office for a awhile and I was a little scared of pits because I hadn't been around them, but the ones that were brought in were the sweetest dogs and the little yappy dogs are the only dogs that ever bit me.
For the mother's day post...who asks a sibling to buy them underwear at all, let alone Victoria's Secret? Outside of a bachelorette party, that's weird.
True, i was like "HUH!?" I hope they are both girls at least, because if the poster is a boy, that'd be the weirdest shish ever. Also, why should a sibling get something for MOTHERs day?
The tip jar one, I can relate to. I owned a coffeeshop and would work the morning shift from 7:00am to 11:00am alone, with my mother in the back doing the baking and food prep. At 11:00am, my lunch crew would come in (2 girls) and one would work lunch (11:00am - 2:00PM) and the other would work until 4:00PM until the second shift would come in and relieve myself and the other girl. I had a rule that when I worked with someone, I would not take tips - the girls got it all, because I was the owner. So at 11:00am, I would empty the tip cup and that was mine and everything else to the end of day would be theirs. One morning, I forgot to empty the cup at 11:00am, and there was a lot of money in it - we had a busy morning. At about 11:30am I mentioned it to the girls and said I forgot to empty the cup before they started and went to empty it. They were livid. "I thought you said when we worked with you that you wouldn't take any tips?" Yes, that is true but this was money from before you came in. They didn't care - they said that it was theirs. I laughed, and just said whatever and let them have it, even though they weren't even here when the tips were put in. Just for reference, it was only about $18-$25, but it was the principal of the thing.
"No" is a complete sentence. Never waste your time explaining to a CB why your answer is no. Never explain why the thing you're selling costs what it does. They'll just try to negotiate around your reasons.
I had a group assignment where I had to make an elaborate Powerpoint presentation with my friend. It's due in about 3 days and it's pretty easy to do. I know my friend is pretty lazy and LOVES to procrastinate, so I chose to do 7 out of the 10 slides, which I completed by the first day. 1 hour until the presentations start and my friend realizes that he had only done 1 of the 3 slides and starts BEGGING me for help, while I'm making up a math quiz because I was sick on the day of the quiz. All those hours I thought he was working he was just playing video games. Kinda came back to bite him though, as the principle herself confiscated his laptop about 2 days later.
A note for the story at 24:20 - I would totally believe he's rich. My ex worked for a fur store for years, and the owners, despite being insanely wealthy, were the greatest CBs of all time. For example, they still used an external 56k dial-up modem from ages ago as their main form of transfer for payments and the like. In the 2000's. But that's not the best story. They were having painting done, and instead of getting tarps, they came to the store at took bags they usually used to cover the fur in order to use for tarps.

25:03 This is probably my favorite one. Oh my GOD the karma. The fact that this "Dave" dude just saw this woman in vain, and wanted to show CB what it feels like for someone to take a bite out of your privacy.
I gotta be honest, I used to help everyone out, from age 11-12 to 19 I gave up my childhood and raised rich people's kids while getting absolutely nothing needed for my effort except lessons on drinking nightly and doing pills. I swear it got me used to being walked all over and acting like it was gratifying. Afterwards it just continued, I was used left and right. I took care of myself well but when I came into medical issues it lead to homelessness and inability to bounce back. Because of all the CB's, there is absolutely no help for those who really need it. I try daily to not harden my heart but, WHO RAISES THESE PEOPLE?
"No sex till marriage, but you're 18 and have 3 kids!" I was literally saying in synch, what the hell man? I guess she really found God cause the alternate idea is horrifying.
That mother wanted to pay 3.75 an hour for you to take care of her children. CHILDREN. if you find someone willing to care for children at such a low price, they have an ulterior motive.
55:30 So the nanny is getting $450, but is expected to pay $450 for "free" lodging. Soooo, they're basically working for free? Sounds legit, where can I sign up?
The one about asking for the film production stuff is....very normal for the small film project industry. Either you get $50-100 a day for 17 hour shoots or you get film production reels/union hours.

This is old but just wanted to say, when I was younger I paid the tooth fairy 50 cents for one of my teeth back because “I felt bad I wanted it back” (I got 25 cents for one tooth) To this day I don’t understand why I gave the tooth fairy a tip
I've done it. It's gold. Whilst speaking to this incredibly rude woman about some records I was selling, and which she wanted to pay less than half the amount I had advertised them at, I got fed up with her, and said that I had a call on my other phone. Knowing she could hear, I pretended to sell those records to the other 'caller', for the full amount. The rude woman screamed abuse at me, saying that the records were hers. I replied that, as she had no intention of paying full whack, they were not hers, and hung up, and immediately blocked her number. The only way to treat people like that. I sold the records to a collector a few hours later.
I draw adult stuff, and i can not tell you how hard it is. Like already drawing two people hugging can be hard, now add even more areas of contact way more poses and then making sure the prespective is right for both people in the drawing. In short smut is exspensive for smut is really hard to draw and make it look good.
Man, maybe I'm doing something wrong. I don't find it all that hard. Anyway, I'm no longer planning to be an artist as I no longer see it as financially viable.
I hate people that judge artists based on experience. Like, first of all, to be a good artist to begin with, that person has probably put in work towards their art there entire life. So if that person is let’s say 20, they’ve probably been practicing for at least 10 years if not more. There’s your experience. Just because they’ve only been taking commissions for 2 years does not mean they’re an inexperienced artist, especially if you can see how good their art is. 🙄
I wish I had to confidence to say "Hey wanna go to x location? You have to pay for everything cus im broke, it has to be in a 5 star hotel with all dinner paid for."
With the $450 nanny one i thought the nanny would be paid like $450 a week which seemed alright, but the fact that the nanny would have to pay $450 to work thats just ficked up
44:41 Fun fact! You should seperate kittens after 12 - 14 weeks old, before that time, they should stay with their mother The kitten may suffer any behaviour problems if they're seperated to early from mother/+siblings
When I worked at Office Depot in Glen Burnie MD, one of the managers was just weird. She kept bleeding all up and down her forearms from messing with the copy machine and she expected employees to bandage her up. No ma’am, I did not! Being the shift manager, there were never any write ups of her injuries and they seemed to be getting worse. A customer took a liking to me. He’d peek in the break room and bring me a latte from the Starbucks on the corner at the start of my breaks, so I’d sit with him on my break. Manager saw this and received anonymous roses at work. Again, it was weird, but I ignored that and said, “I bet they were from ur bf. SO pretty!” Vet cashiers were asked to help new cashiers for BTS. It’s basically Office Depot’s Christmas, so we went from maybe 5 cashiers on payroll to about 30 and us 5 had to catch up the other 25, while we all made the same wage. Some newbs got paid more than vets. I come in for my shit and that weird manager says, “Sign this. (No! What is it?) One o the girls u trained was eating on shift. (So write her up) You trained her. Sign it or go home.” I went home. I called corporate and was told that weirdo had seniority and that I should not come back to the store as an employee. Wow! A few mos later, I go to buy a laptop from there. They tell me weirdo got fired for dipping in the till. Really? I thought she’d get workmans comp. The credit wouldn’t get approved, so I pulled a paper out of my handbag and announced, “I just bought a new car, so u can see right here that my equafax is 830. Oh, I’ll just use my debit. (Ya sure?) Yeah man, since I left here, I’m finally paid what I’m worth. I’m real good.” I wasn’t doing that good IRL as a full time college kid working 40+ a week. I had to live off potato chips for almost 2 weeks, but I ain’t mess up my credit. I just felt compelled to make a point. Let em keep the weirdo till they catch her stealing. Lil ole me was doing fine and dandy in the sunshine, right?!

I know my friend is pretty lazy and LOVES to procrastinate, so I chose to do 7 out of the 10 slides, which I completed by the first day. 1 hour until the presentations start and my friend realizes that he had only done 1 of the 3 slides and starts BEGGING me for help, while I'm making up a math quiz because I was sick on the day of the quiz. All those hours I thought he was working he was just playing video games. Kinda came back to bite him though, as the principle herself confiscated his laptop about 2 days later.
25:08 is literally an “and then everybody clapped” story, honestly
“Eat it. Don't be a little b^tch.” Thank you for that.
I always used to watch this channel a few years again when it had 1 million subs and I found it again.
28:34 As someone with eczema, I assure you, no handcream can cure eczema.
Exactly!! It can treat it but not cure it
Especially not some random cream that helps against dryness
A note for the story at 24:20 - I would totally believe he's rich. My ex worked for a fur store for years, and the owners, despite being insanely wealthy, were the greatest CBs of all time. For example, they still used an external 56k dial-up modem from ages ago as their main form of transfer for payments and the like. In the 2000's. But that's not the best story.
They were having painting done, and instead of getting tarps, they came to the store at took bags they usually used to cover the fur in order to use for tarps.
1:02:03 this man has literally just described a child. Short, light, no boyfriend, usually biologically female (at the time) no tattoos, this is a child. This 44 year old man wants to date a high schooler.
better, quicker ending
CB: "the hand-cream in your desk, can i-"
me: THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY DESK
CB: "well i-"
me: "STAY THE F___ AWAY FROM MY STUFF"
fin
The japanese handcream story had me rolling, absolute W coworkers I wouldn't trade them for anything
Imagine looking at a reputable pressure washingscorce and it saying "400$" then looking at a less reputable place doing it for 99$ and thinking " Yes, this will go perfectly well" and then getting mad when you didnt get what you asked for.
I've never been this early before so I hope y'all see this.
I love and appreciate all the members of Emkay! The editors do amazing work, the narrators are always so funny and interactive. I love y'all and wish you all a wonderful day! ❤❤❤
25:03 This is probably my favorite one. Oh my GOD the karma. The fact that this "Dave" dude just saw this woman in vain, and wanted to show CB what it feels like for someone to take a bite out of your privacy.
I gotta be honest, I used to help everyone out, from age 11-12 to 19 I gave up my childhood and raised rich people's kids while getting absolutely nothing needed for my effort except lessons on drinking nightly and doing pills. I swear it got me used to being walked all over and acting like it was gratifying. Afterwards it just continued, I was used left and right.
I took care of myself well but when I came into medical issues it lead to homelessness and inability to bounce back.
Because of all the CB's, there is absolutely no help for those who really need it.
I try daily to not harden my heart but, WHO RAISES THESE PEOPLE?
Choosing beggar: *keyboard smash*
Robin:WhAt LaNgUaGe Is ThAt
Perfect timing for a emkay video 😌👍
9:19 it’s funny that he’s calling him cheap when he’s the one who wants a phone for the price of a video game.
i love how this video is longer than all of r/choosingbeggars
"No sex till marriage, but you're 18 and have 3 kids!"
I was literally saying in synch, what the hell man? I guess she really found God cause the alternate idea is horrifying.
It was very clearly a joke lol
This video changed my life. It healed my eczsma
14:06 The only BMW E36 M3 you could buy for $5,000 is a fire damaged shell without an engine or drivetrain
I love this channel it always makes me laugh ☺️
Well, calling someone a "Pathetic Elbow" is a new one for the book.
56:00 i would take the laptop and then just give it back to the dad and tell him what happened, modern problems require modern solutions.
That mother wanted to pay 3.75 an hour for you to take care of her children. CHILDREN. if you find someone willing to care for children at such a low price, they have an ulterior motive.
Dude, that chilling scares voice is hell lol
2:29
"Either free or at cost..."
*music stops*
"They kicked him out"
Me: XDD
D00d you're the best EmKay! Keep on goin!
55:30 So the nanny is getting $450, but is expected to pay $450 for "free" lodging. Soooo, they're basically working for free? Sounds legit, where can I sign up?
36:13
Imagine calling someone gay as an insult in 2022. XD
dont forget "pathetic elbow"
I’m sorry…but if you “empty your bank account” for someone else’s wedding, that’s really on you at that point.
I would have cut contact with them long before it got to that point.
Pretty much, yeah...
Damien's chills voice was the best part and has always been the best part
The one about asking for the film production stuff is....very normal for the small film project industry. Either you get $50-100 a day for 17 hour shoots or you get film production reels/union hours.
1:01:07 This man just got progressively worse and worse. 😂I could only play like 3 seconds at a time because I kept dying of laughter. Oh my God, I really needed this today. 🤣
1:19:38
Man I love it when Robin laughs
Bro deserves nice things
I'm sorry but hearing Damien speak very quietly made it feel like we were doing a Call of Duty mission. 😄
Just found this channel yesterday, and i'm loving it lol.
"I dont encourage violence
...unless it's this person"
-Emkay
(this is my new favorite quote)
36:26 "Shut up you pathetic elbow" Im sorry that one got me
I left this playing while I was in the shower and was confused how it got changed to a Chills video on its own as I couldn't hear what was being said but recognised Chills' speaking pattern 😂😂 your impression was too good
This is old but just wanted to say, when I was younger I paid the tooth fairy 50 cents for one of my teeth back because “I felt bad I wanted it back” (I got 25 cents for one tooth)
To this day I don’t understand why I gave the tooth fairy a tip
I wanna meet a choosing beggar and mess with them, it'd be fun.
honestly same
I've done it. It's gold. Whilst speaking to this incredibly rude woman about some records I was selling, and which she wanted to pay less than half the amount I had advertised them at, I got fed up with her, and said that I had a call on my other phone. Knowing she could hear, I pretended to sell those records to the other 'caller', for the full amount. The rude woman screamed abuse at me, saying that the records were hers. I replied that, as she had no intention of paying full whack, they were not hers, and hung up, and immediately blocked her number.
The only way to treat people like that.
I sold the records to a collector a few hours later.
@@brianartillery Epic move
@@brianartillery "I'm gonna do what's called a pro gamer move" -you probably
@@thisisntanoption702 I do have this old baseball glove maybe I can try to lure them with that
The self confidence of asking an 800 dollar laptop for 90 bucks is something I wish to get
The girl who had the hand cream stolen from them should have said “ Fly to Japan and buy some your self”
The Lion, The Witch, and the Audacity of this Bish
44:13 THROWING A FLASHBANG
The yogurt story was SO goddamn satisfying!!!
I draw adult stuff, and i can not tell you how hard it is. Like already drawing two people hugging can be hard, now add even more areas of contact way more poses and then making sure the prespective is right for both people in the drawing.
In short smut is exspensive for smut is really hard to draw and make it look good.
Man, maybe I'm doing something wrong. I don't find it all that hard.
Anyway, I'm no longer planning to be an artist as I no longer see it as financially viable.
i love to imagine the CB's seeing these videos being laughed at by people with millions of subscribers
I hate people that judge artists based on experience. Like, first of all, to be a good artist to begin with, that person has probably put in work towards their art there entire life. So if that person is let’s say 20, they’ve probably been practicing for at least 10 years if not more. There’s your experience. Just because they’ve only been taking commissions for 2 years does not mean they’re an inexperienced artist, especially if you can see how good their art is. 🙄
16:07 that’s when you add several hidden high voltage electric fences
I wish I had to confidence to say "Hey wanna go to x location? You have to pay for everything cus im broke, it has to be in a 5 star hotel with all dinner paid for."
With the $450 nanny one i thought the nanny would be paid like $450 a week which seemed alright, but the fact that the nanny would have to pay $450 to work thats just ficked up
hearing slazo was a shock of nostalgia
1:03:32 and 1:04:24 are probably the best emkay moments in history
44:41 Fun fact! You should seperate kittens after 12 - 14 weeks old, before that time, they should stay with their mother
The kitten may suffer any behaviour problems if they're seperated to early from mother/+siblings
13:19
The Burger King foot lettuce impression is uncanny 😂😂
That story about hand cream and yogurt made me burst into a fit of hysterical laughter
Robin is probably my fav emkay narrator
Oh shit! 🤣🤣 that 'chills' guys voice goes straight through me! Makes me so mad and I don't even know why. You're impression was PERFECT! 🤣🤣 brilliant
OMG my face was in awe when he said he was a 44 year old male living with his parents XD [ 1:01:00 ]
“i don’t need a fricking oooooooo” 1:11:44 lol
4:33 Who leaves from work, not even on an official break, and lies down long enough for any sort of nap??
When I worked at Office Depot in Glen Burnie MD, one of the managers was just weird. She kept bleeding all up and down her forearms from messing with the copy machine and she expected employees to bandage her up. No ma’am, I did not! Being the shift manager, there were never any write ups of her injuries and they seemed to be getting worse.
A customer took a liking to me. He’d peek in the break room and bring me a latte from the Starbucks on the corner at the start of my breaks, so I’d sit with him on my break. Manager saw this and received anonymous roses at work. Again, it was weird, but I ignored that and said, “I bet they were from ur bf. SO pretty!”
Vet cashiers were asked to help new cashiers for BTS. It’s basically Office Depot’s Christmas, so we went from maybe 5 cashiers on payroll to about 30 and us 5 had to catch up the other 25, while we all made the same wage. Some newbs got paid more than vets.
I come in for my shit and that weird manager says, “Sign this. (No! What is it?) One o the girls u trained was eating on shift. (So write her up) You trained her. Sign it or go home.” I went home. I called corporate and was told that weirdo had seniority and that I should not come back to the store as an employee. Wow!
A few mos later, I go to buy a laptop from there. They tell me weirdo got fired for dipping in the till. Really? I thought she’d get workmans comp. The credit wouldn’t get approved, so I pulled a paper out of my handbag and announced, “I just bought a new car, so u can see right here that my equafax is 830. Oh, I’ll just use my debit. (Ya sure?) Yeah man, since I left here, I’m finally paid what I’m worth. I’m real good.”
I wasn’t doing that good IRL as a full time college kid working 40+ a week. I had to live off potato chips for almost 2 weeks, but I ain’t mess up my credit. I just felt compelled to make a point. Let em keep the weirdo till they catch her stealing. Lil ole me was doing fine and dandy in the sunshine, right?!
