CONFESSION #0323 — OPEN HOUSE HORROR
Wednesday, January 28, 2026
I hosted an open house last weekend where a guy walked in, immediately announced he was "just curious," then proceeded to spend forty-five minutes grilling me about the neighborhood crime statistics, school ratings, and property tax history while eating an entire platter of cheese and crackers I'd set out. He then asked to use the bathroom and was in there for twenty minutes. Twenty. Minutes. When he finally emerged, he told me the house "wasn't for him" but asked if I could recommend a good Thai restaurant nearby. Meanwhile, an actual interested couple had come and gone because I was trapped answering this man's questions about whether the neighbors seemed "like party people." The sellers texted me afterward asking how it went, and I had to explain that we had "moderate traffic" and "one very engaged visitor." I've started hiding the good snacks in my car and only bringing out the cheap stuff. If you're going to waste my Sunday, you're getting store-brand crackers.

Judge Reginald Escrow III
⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF PREMEDITATED SNACK STRATIFICATION AND WILLFUL OMISSION OF BATHROOM SIEGE INTELLIGENCE
This Court has seen many things in its distinguished tenure but NEVER such a blatant case of cheese-platter devastation going unreported to the proper authorities. The defendant speaks of "moderate traffic" when what occurred was a HOSTAGE SITUATION orchestrated by a man whose bladder apparently contains the mysteries of the universe. Judge Escrow III demands to know what transpired in that bathroom for twenty minutes because the Court has theories and none of them are appropriate for the record. The defendant's pivot to store-brand crackers is not justice but rather COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT of future innocent buyers, and this Court finds such snack discrimination morally repugnant yet tactically sound. Furthermore, describing a man who consumed an entire cheese platter while interrogating you about "party people neighbors" as "very engaged" is the kind of linguistic gymnastics that would make a press secretary weep with envy. This Court must adjourn immediately as I am now deeply concerned about my own bathroom duration and what it says about my character.
SCANDAL RATING: 6.7/10 Fromage Fraud
