It takes the submitter threatening to return the four $60 anime figures the roommate just bought for the roommate to finally begrudgingly pay the money she owes the submitter's relative. It unfortunately doesn't end there, as [[DownerEnding the story ends with]] the submitter in trouble with their relative and the roommate [[KarmaHoudini getting petty revenge by moving out and taking all of the food with her]], leaving the submitter and the remaining roommate without their own food for two weeks.

* TheMillstone: [[https://notalwaysright.com/riding-you-the-wrong-way/ In this story]], a woman asks the submitter and their dad if she and her son can ride with them to the submitter's basketball team;s championship game, a ten-hour drive across one of Canada's largest provinces. The woman proves to be a hindrance to the submitter and dad, however. First, she stays at the school she works at long enough to have a long conversation with one of her friends while the submitter and her dad wait for them outside (thirty minutes wasted). Then they have to drive back to her house so they can pick up her son and their luggage, and the submitter's dad soon finds out that they ''hadn't even finished packing yet'' and were wasting time trying to remember where they were going to be staying at the destination town (another forty-five minutes wasted). Once they actually get to their destination, the woman protests that they need to go to where she and her son are staying before the submitter and their dad check in at the hotel, but at this point, the tired and fed-up dad just tells them to take a taxi. They later find out that the woman had a history of convincing other families to let her and her family ride with them and end up wasting their time doing things that were meaningless or should have already been done. The dad ultimately stays for the entire length of the championship even though the submitter's team loses earlier on just to spite her when she immediately wants to go back home.

** [[https://notalwaysright.com/making-mad-dash-dash-cam/103731/ This woman]] comes across a truck on a very narrow one lane road. [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections Because her uncle owns the farm, she believes that she has right of way]] and the truck driver and the dozen cars behind her have to move to let her pass, which the submitter, who’s driving the truck, literally ''can’t'' (as the truck is too wide to allow her to pass). A driver behind the submitter sets her straight, forcing the woman to back up to a passing area. When she is unable to make the turn in reverse, she loses patience and backs into a fence. She immediately blames the submitter for crashing her car (stating outright that he did so directly), threatening to get him fired. The submitter is not amused and drives off, noting that she can call the company, and that his truck has a dashboard camera. The woman calls his boss, [[BlatantLies stating that the submitter threw her out of the car and drove it through the fence]]. The submitter shows his boss the footage, who [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech angrily yells at her for abusing staff and making fake claims.]] She attempts to give the same story to the insurance company, who similarly drops the case upon seeing the footage.

** Similarly: "Literature/JamesBond [[http://notalwaysright.com/shaken-by-a-stirring-revelation/ is in books?!"]]
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/they-need-to-be-expelled-iarmus/ And then there's someone complaining about how unfaithful the novelizations of the Harry Potter movies were.]]
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: [[http://notalwaysright.com/the-best-and-worst-idea-to-date/ Six years old and giving grown-ups dating advice]]... like how to make her throw up if she isn't nice to you on the date.
* AlcoholHic: [[http://notalwaysright.com/dont-drink-and-drive-home-the-point/ Happens here]] as one guy tries to claim he isn't drunk.
* AnalogyBackfire: [[https://notalwaysright.com/someone-complete-dck-breast-ignore/ This man complains]] about a mother showing her breast to breastfeed her baby as indecent and tries to compare it to him showing his penis in public.....only for the submitter to point out loud to everyone nearby that [[{{Squick}} this implies that he feeds infants with his semen]]. The man is so embarrassed and flustered that he leaves quickly.
* ArtisticLicenseGeography: [[https://notalwaysright.com/no-springing-bok/93302/ One smug English girl]] proudly proclaims she's South African during a Rugby match when South Africa beats England but is called out by everyone at the bar that she isn't South African as she wasn't born there nor was she a citizen, and her grandparents and father living there for a few years does not make her one.
* AskAStupidQuestion: [[http://notalwaysright.com/some-friends-have-the-patience-of-a-saint/ "What's a saint? Are they people who work for Satan or something?"]]
* BackhandedApology: [[https://notalwaysright.com/pray-app-fix/ “Sorry you can’t take a joke.” “Sorry you have a terrible sense of humor.”]]
* BeliefMakesYouStupid:
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/they-were-saved/ Enough so to]] ''intentionally'' endanger three lives to prove that God would save them, apparently forgetting about the part in the Bible where it says "thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to a foolish test", and then [[UngratefulBastard chewing out and threatening the good Samaritans that saved their lives]]. If the husband's comment that he ''wants'' the police to lock her up for it is any indication, this is just the tipping point in a long list of events like this - the story ends with the reveal that he divorced her at some point around the same time she went to jail over this incident.
** Will somebody please explain what "bearing false witness against thy neighbor" is [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-sin-ple-explanation/ to this lady?]] She grills people in her church on seemingly random questions based on her warped view on who a "real" Christian is, and if they didn't fit, she'd make up a ridiculous excuse to get them thrown out.
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/theocracy-hypocrisy/ For this person]], anything and everything any non-Christian talks about [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence can and will offend her beliefs]]. Her forcing her own beliefs on everyone else for three years, though, is perfectly fine.
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/making-a-whole-lot-of-noise-about-a-whole-lot-of-noise/ This woman]] complains about how the loud noises from a practice racing event will distract her from her bible study, when said bible study is taking place at her house ten miles away from the event.
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/the-devil-has-his-eye-on-you/ This old couple]] almost drowned the submitter via an impromptu baptism because they were convinced the broken blood vessels in her eyes were proof she was possessed by the Devil and would have continued if it weren't for bystanders and security stopping them. [[TheCloudCookoolanderWasRight Scary thing is, the "baptism" seems to have worked.]]
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/to-save-your-soul-she-will-take-your-sanity/31812/ One flatmate keeps changing]] the submitter's kitchen cabinet lock number as it's originally defaulted to "6 6 6" when locked which bothers her that the submitter's has the Devil's number and needs to be save despite the submitter's repeatedly telling her she's an atheist, has OCD with the number 6 and doesn't feel calm when it's not set to that number. It got to the point where the submitter had to go back to the kitchen every time she heard the door to the kitchen open and after university classes everyday because the religious classmate kept changing the lock number, affecting her school work. The submitter and her saner flatmates finally had enough with the religious flatmate when she broke into the submitter's kitchen cabinet to put a cross and holy water in there to "save her". She was eventually reported to the student union who ordered her to move out of the flat, ignoring that student's complaint about the submitter going to the kitchen every night, oblivious to the fact she was [[NeverMyFault the reason for the submitter's actions.]]
** In a reverse, [[https://notalwaysright.com/oh-american-strife/29164/ this Atheist English woman]] tries to pick a fight with a American Christian, proudly claiming that England is an Atheist country when it’s not and doesn’t believe that Jesus taught his followers to respect others and turn the other cheek even though she claims she knows Christianity. She was eventually kicked out of the restaurant by the manager for disturbing the American woman who was trying to be nice and tell her to leave her alone, [[NeverMyFault being oblivious on why people were cross with her]].

* CloudCuckooLander: [[https://notalwaysright.com/an-aura-of-accusation/92228/ This woman]] makes a big display of sitting away from the submitter, and then moves towards and ''sniffs'' them, asking if the submitter has committed a crime because the woman’s “aura is very cloudy.” After the submitter asks her to leave, the woman leaves and accuses the submitter of trying to molest her. The police are called, only asking the submitter for a statement, as cameras clearly showed that the woman was making the submitter uncomfortable, and the police were aware of the woman, and were trying to get her into a secure unit.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/its-hard-work-when-youre-hardly-working/ This friend]], who doesn't want to work while at work.

* DoubleStandard: [[http://notalwaysright.com/stop-ramming-atheism-down-my-throat-so-i-can-ram-religion-down-yours/ In this story]], an Atheist's Catholic friend doesn't like the former writing in the Bible and making jokes about it since they consider it very rude and offensive, yet the Catholic friend sees no problem if the same thing happened to the Quran.

* FailedASpotCheck:
** More like "Failed a Taste Test"; [[https://notalwaysright.com/your-health-is-bananas/ This fruit fanatic]] failed to notice for most of their life that they had an allergic response to bananas. They thought the sour, burning sensation was how they were ''supposed'' to taste.
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-comic-misunderstanding/132348/ A dad accidentally reprimands someone else's daughter]] when he thought his own was about to read an age-inappropriate book at a bookstore, not seeing the girl's face until it's too late.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: [[http://notalwaysright.com/their-own-definition-of-resident-evil/ These girls]] were actually considering reporting the submitter to the police for animal abuse, because they killed a monster in a video game that vaguely resembled a dog.

* HorribleCampingTrip: [[https://notalwaysright.com/they-should-be-sent-to-bootcamp/108382/ This messy story]], where a family camping trip is turned into the camping trip from Hell by a family friend who invited them along with his free-loading inconsiderate frat boy buddies. Within two days they eat the entire supply of food (including eggs meant for a diabetic grandfather), "forget" to get ice for their drinks and uncooked burgers and hot dogs when they left the coolers open and instead return with more raw chicken than the family can eat resulting in them wasting hundreds of dollars worth of food, leave a mess everywhere that attracts wild animals including a bear, lose the then-young submitter on an excursion, and smoke weed around the kids, all while remaining completely oblivious to the obvious misery of everyone else on the trip. Needless to say, the family [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere threw in the towel and went home well before the trip was supposed to be over]] and never went camping with them again, and the submitter mentions that it caused their grandmother to never go on another camping trip with anybody ever again.
* HurricaneOfPuns: [[http://notalwaysright.com/kitchen-pots-and-puns/ A heavy seasoning of kitchen puns]].
* HypocriticalHumor:
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/skipped-the-last-couple-commandments/ This Christian person]] castigates a non-religious neighbor for performing minor physical labor on Good Friday, [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence because someone else not following his beliefs is inconsiderate to him]]. The submitter counters by asking if, following this logic, he honors Muslim religious holidays so as not to be inconsiderate towards them, and is met with a screamed [[ItsAllAboutMe "BURN IN HELL!"]]
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/coffee-is-good-as-there-is-no-proof/ One roommate tells another,]] "You shouldn't drink so much coffee. That s***'s like poison, it'll kill you." She then drinks straight out of the bottle of vodka she's holding.

** [[http://notalwaysright.com/steel-yourself-for-some-stealing/ This elderly lady]] refuses to accept a subway ticket as a gift from a total stranger because she thinks that would be "stealing" from them.

** [[http://notalwaysright.com/irony-is-effortless/ "It's funny. In being lazy, I actually did something that required more effort."]]
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/a-womans-gotta-do/ This guy]] accuses the submitter of being a "fake nerd girl" who only dressed up to impress a guy but doesn't know who she's actually dressed up as. She responds by singing a verse from [[WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog "Brand New Day"]]... and ''he'' doesn't recognize it, or the fact that the submitter is ''dressed'' as Dr. Horrible.
*** Same deal [[http://notalwaysright.com/a-venomous-reaction/ here]], where a teenager walks up to the submitter to tell her that "wearing a ComicBook/{{Spawn}} hoodie doesn't make you a real geek". She nonchalantly tells him it's actually a ComicBook/{{Venom}} hoodie.

** [[https://notalwaysright.com/life-is-stranger-than-stolen-fiction/31836/ This woman]] takes a book from the submitter at a bus stop and refuses to give it back, immediately claiming that the book is hers. When the police come, the woman claims that the book is hers and that the submitter is trying to steal it, even though ''several witnesses'' back up the submitter both before and after the police arrive.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: [[https://notalwaysright.com/the-a-in-lgbtqa-also-stands-for-arsonist/ A half-burned LGBT event sign]] leads a dormitory admin to assume one of the residents is discriminating.

* InsaneTrollLogic: [[https://notalwaysright.com/youll-forgive-mrs-lannister/92220/ This mother]] thinks it’s “disgusting” to have a brother and sister sleep in the same room because it supposedly encourages incest, even when it’s made clear that the brother and sister are two and five, respectively, and wouldn’t want to do anything of the sort.
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/homocoholism/106288/ This poster's friend]] read that gays are more likely to be alcoholics, and decided that meant the poster was gay because he drank "too much" (despite drinking less than the friend does) and would go straight if she made him quit drinking. "Next stop: Ex-Friend City".
* InsultBackfire: [[https://notalwaysright.com/ugly-surgery-cant-fix/92732/ One busybody lady]] insults the submitter, who is going for breast reduction surgery, by claiming that her husband will leave her for a "real woman" and body shames her by saying she should get tummy reduction. However, it doesn't work, since the submitter is a lesbian and it was her wife's idea for her to get the surgery. She proceeds to give the busybody an epic TakeThat by asking if she's there to fix a botched face-lift.
* {{Jerkass}}:
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/divorce-followed-by-a-break-up/ This girl]] suggests that her boyfriend should let his friend kill herself over a divorce, because she personally does not get why it's such a big deal and as such is assuming said friend is an attention whore. Her boyfriend [[TrueCompanions is not at all amused]], and [[LaserGuidedKarma dumps her on the spot]].
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/a-time-for-giving-only/ This whole family]] thinks it's "rude" that the only thing their friend could afford to give them for Christmas was a huge basket of sweets, handmade and from scratch. The fact that they have ''never once'' given that friend a gift in return, though, even after telling him of the many, many expensive things they got themselves? [[ItsAllAboutMe Nah, that's okay.]] As a bonus, they demand the sweets back [[LaserGuidedKarma when the submitter takes them away after being told that it's "rude" for him to be giving them sweets in the first place.]]
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/should-have-been-carted-away/ This woman]] sees the poster getting in their car and quickly goes out of her way to block him in by putting her shopping cart behind his car (maybe so she could pull out first, maybe [[ItAmusedMe just for the hell of it]]). The submitter's response was to get out, push the cart behind her car, and ''flip it over''. [[LaserGuidedKarma As he drove off, he looked back and saw she wasn't strong enough to move it by herself.]]
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/enough-to-make-you-unhinged/ The submitter here]] is rooming with three very immature and obnoxious men. One night, they continually keep him up, mock him when he complains, and as a "joke" remove the door to his room because [[DisproportionateRetribution the submitter wouldn't close a cabinet]] [[TheyJustDontGetIt that was repeatedly noted to have faulty hinges and as such unable to close]]. Needless to say, the housemates' reasoning of [[NeverMyFault "we thought you'd find it funny" and "it annoyed us"]] does not calm down the submitter at all.
* JerkassRealization:
** After having an unannounced party at 4 in the morning and disturbing the submitter and their very young family, [[https://notalwaysright.com/make-some-noise-about-them-making-some-noise/130676/ a neighbor]] shows up at the submitter's door the next morning with gifts for everyone and apologizes for being inconsiderate.
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-worldview-so-narrow-it-looks-like-a-chopstick/132352/ A Chinese girl teasing an American tourist for using a fork to eat instead of chopsticks and being too lazy to learn how to use chopsticks]] is embarrassed and apologizes profusely when said tourist explains that the only reason they can't use chopsticks right now is because their dominant wrist is injured. (Unfortunately, [[RacistGrandma the same cannot be said for the Chinese girl's mother]].)
* KidsAreCruel: [[https://notalwaysright.com/40746-2/ These]] girls keep another on a swing and push her while they mock her for being another race. The girl later becomes clincally depressed and suicidal because she later had to go to school in that area.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: [[http://notalwaysright.com/an-evergreen-state-even-during-twilight/ This submitter]] absolutely hates ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'', not because [[ItsPopularNowItSucks it's "cool" to do so or whatever]], but because people who have never once set foot in Washington state think they know more about the place than the submitter who has ''lived'' there their entire life, thanks to that series.[[invoked]]

--> "Sorry, I took you off my list."
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/in-for-a-penny-in-for-a-pound/ This guy]], trying to buy 16 pounds' worth of items but only having 15, loudly objects to the submitter's offer of letting him borrow a pound. As the submitter is paying for his own items, the other guy is trying to lower his bill, but still ends up ten pence short. He turns to the submitter...
--->'''Guy:''' Hey, I don't suppose--\\
'''Submitter:''' No, I don't suppose either. ''(leaves)''
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/mad-dash-for-dash-cam/ This guy]] deliberately backs into the car behind him and pretends to have injured his neck when the police arrive. Luckily, the other driver had a dash cam in the car. [[OhCrap The first guy turns white when he finds out.]]
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-helpless-situation/ In this story]], a woman refuses to help a person with a broken arm, saying that they should've brought someone else to help them. Luckily, another man steps in to assist. Later, the woman drops her groceries and asks the same man to help her. The man refuses and walks by, saying that she should've brought someone else to help her.
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/time-to-abandon-this-sinking-ship/ The lead organizer of this camp]] insists on letting other campers use the submitter's personal tandem kayak (meant for the use of said submitter and their disabled daughter). It happens that the submitter had secured a location, food, and entertainment for lunch partway through a planned group kayak trip: The submitter is the only one who knows where the planned stop is, so they and their family pack up their kayaks and leave, rescheduling the food and live band as a private party at night, and leaving the organizer to try to salvage the event in some way.

If the husband's comment that he ''wants'' the police to lock her up for it is any indication, this is just the tipping point in a long list of events like this - the story ends with the reveal that he divorced her at some point around the same time she went to jail over this incident.
** Will somebody please explain what "bearing false witness against thy neighbor" is [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-sin-ple-explanation/ to this lady?]] She grills people in her church on seemingly random questions based on her warped view on who a "real" Christian is, and if they didn't fit, she'd make up a ridiculous excuse to get them thrown out.

It got to the point where the submitter had to go back to the kitchen every time she heard the door to the kitchen open and after university classes everyday because the religious classmate kept changing the lock number, affecting her school work. The submitter and her saner flatmates finally had enough with the religious flatmate when she broke into the submitter's kitchen cabinet to put a cross and holy water in there to "save her". She was eventually reported to the student union who ordered her to move out of the flat, ignoring that student's complaint about the submitter going to the kitchen every night, oblivious to the fact she was [[NeverMyFault the reason for the submitter's actions.]]

* InnocentlyInsensitive: [[https://notalwaysright.com/the-a-in-lgbtqa-also-stands-for-arsonist/ A half-burned LGBT event sign]] leads a dormitory admin to assume one of the residents is discriminating. One of the residents is an impulsive pyromaniac, who burned the sign without realizing what it would mean.
* InsaneTrollLogic: [[https://notalwaysright.com/youll-forgive-mrs-lannister/92220/ This mother]] thinks it’s “disgusting” to have a brother and sister sleep in the same room because it supposedly encourages incest, even when it’s made clear that the brother and sister are two and five, respectively, and wouldn’t want to do anything of the sort.
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/homocoholism/106288/ This poster's friend]] read that gays are more likely to be alcoholics, and decided that meant the poster was gay because he drank "too much" (despite drinking less than the friend does) and would go straight if she made him quit drinking. "Next stop: Ex-Friend City".
* InsultBackfire: [[https://notalwaysright.com/ugly-surgery-cant-fix/92732/ One busybody lady]] insults the submitter, who is going for breast reduction surgery, by claiming that her husband will leave her for a "real woman" and body shames her by saying she should get tummy reduction. However, it doesn't work, since the submitter is a lesbian and it was her wife's idea for her to get the surgery. She proceeds to give the busybody an epic TakeThat by asking if she's there to fix a botched face-lift.
* {{Jerkass}}:
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/divorce-followed-by-a-break-up/ This girl]] suggests that her boyfriend should let his friend kill herself over a divorce, because she personally does not get why it's such a big deal and as such is assuming said friend is an attention whore. Her boyfriend [[TrueCompanions is not at all amused]], and [[LaserGuidedKarma dumps her on the spot]].
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/a-time-for-giving-only/ This whole family]] thinks it's "rude" that the only thing their friend could afford to give them for Christmas was a huge basket of sweets, handmade and from scratch. The fact that they have ''never once'' given that friend a gift in return, though, even after telling him of the many, many expensive things they got themselves? [[ItsAllAboutMe Nah, that's okay.]] As a bonus, they demand the sweets back [[LaserGuidedKarma when the submitter takes them away after being told that it's "rude" for him to be giving them sweets in the first place.]]
** [[http://notalwaysright.com/should-have-been-carted-away/ This woman]] sees the poster getting in their car and quickly goes out of her way to block him in by putting her shopping cart behind his car (maybe so she could pull out first, maybe [[ItAmusedMe just for the hell of it]]). The submitter's response was to get out, push the cart behind her car, and ''flip it over''. [[LaserGuidedKarma As he drove off, he looked back and saw she wasn't strong enough to move it by herself.]]
** [[https://notalwaysright.com/enough-to-make-you-unhinged/ The submitter here]] is rooming with three very immature and obnoxious men. One night, they continually keep him up, mock him when he complains, and as a "joke" remove the door to his room because [[DisproportionateRetribution the submitter wouldn't close a cabinet]] [[TheyJustDontGetIt that was repeatedly noted to have faulty hinges and as such unable to close]]. Needless to say, the housemates' reasoning of [[NeverMyFault "we thought you'd find it funny" and "it annoyed us"]] does not calm down the submitter at all.

** [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-worldview-so-narrow-it-looks-like-a-chopstick/132352/ A Chinese girl teasing an American tourist for using a fork to eat instead of chopsticks and being too lazy to learn how to use chopsticks]] is embarrassed and apologizes profusely when said tourist explains that the only reason they can't use chopsticks right now is because their dominant wrist is injured. (Unfortunately, [[RacistGrandma the same cannot be said for the Chinese girl's mother]].)

** [[https://notalwaysright.com/time-to-abandon-this-sinking-ship/ The lead organizer of this camp]] insists on letting other campers use the submitter's personal tandem kayak (meant for the use of said submitter and their disabled daughter). It happens that the submitter had secured a location, food, and entertainment for lunch partway through a planned group kayak trip: The submitter is the only one who knows where the planned stop is, so they and their family pack up their kayaks and leave, rescheduling the food and live band as a private party at night, and leaving the organizer to try to salvage the event in some way.

[[HoistByHisOwnPetard She ends up being the one banned from the church]], presumably because she blatantly ignored that Commandment against bearing false witness--one too many times, if the usher's reaction is any indication.
