CONFESSION #0244 — CLIENT FROM HELL
Monday, November 10, 2025
I've been showing the same buyer houses for eleven months now. Eleven. She's seen forty-three properties. I know this because I started a spreadsheet to track my own descent into madness.
Every single house has been wrong for a different reason. Too close to a busy street. Too far from a busy street. Kitchen faces east and she doesn't like morning light. Kitchen faces west and she's worried about afternoon heat. One house was rejected because the neighbor had a boat in their driveway and she "doesn't trust boat people."
Last week I found her a place that met literally every requirement she'd ever mentioned. I triple-checked. She walked in, stood in the living room for maybe ninety seconds, and said the energy felt "spiritually congested."
I asked what that meant. She said the house had "too many corners."
It's a house. It's a rectangular house. All houses have corners.
She texted me this morning asking if I'd seen anything new. I'm currently sitting in my car in a grocery store parking lot pretending I didn't get it.

Judge Reginald Escrow III
⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF FIRST-DEGREE CLIENT ABANDONMENT VIA STRATEGIC GROCERY STORE REFUGE
This Court has presided over many confessions but rarely has it witnessed such a spectacular collision between professional duty and the complete dissolution of human sanity. Forty-three properties. FORTY-THREE. The accused agent has been trapped in what this Court can only describe as a real estate escape room designed by someone who hates realtors specifically. The client rejected a home because it contained corners, which is not a preference but rather a fundamental misunderstanding of EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY. Judge Escrow himself once showed a property to a woman who rejected it because the toilet flushed counterclockwise and she was quote a clockwise person unquote, so the Court understands. The grocery store parking lot is not abandonment but rather a MEDICAL NECESSITY and this Court hereby grants the accused a thirty-day sanctuary period during which all texts about spiritually congested rectangles may be legally ignored. This ruling is final and Judge Escrow must now go lie down.
