Silly rant; I hate selfish people.

So i'm a newish seller on ebay. I've sold one thing in the past, a heafty sale of diablo 2 items for $600. I then got ripped off and lost the money and the items when the guy did a charge-back thing.
I recently sold a halo 3 plasma pistol toy gun on ebay. This evening the buyer attempted to open a case and get money back, and was damn rude about it (via flaming messages). Being a victim previously I knew all about how he was trying to rip me off, and graciously pointed out the ebay policies on abuse of buyer protection... (he had done a few things to it, like take a screw driver to it). He then closed the case and decided to keep it, while flaming me a bit more.
While it is funny to me (sorta) that he thought I was so dumb to get ripped off that easily, it sucks that I cannot remove his negative feedback.
I am also a server (current job while in nursing school). On top of that, i'm a male server. Not to be sexist, but it always annoys me that the complete lack of a pair of tits makes my household income greatly less than that of the opposite gender. (I normally don't reference this annoyance, but today's shift was very harsh, and coming home to seeing someone trying to scam me has put me in a rather bad mood.)
On top on top of that, I really do hate how during the holidays, a huge % of customers who come to where I serve just don't tip well during the holidays. Granted a % do tip quite a bit more, but the difference is immense.
Selfish people are so irritating. They want to gain for themselves entirely and never think of those around them, even if their gain is the loss of a stranger.
