CONFESSION #0604 — TECH MELTDOWN
Tuesday, June 9, 2026
There was a second lien nobody mentioned. Monday 9am: title company sends clear report. Monday 2pm: buyer wires 340k. Monday 4pm: different title officer calls. Says wait. Tuesday: second lien from 2019 shows up. 82 thousand dollars. Seller says he paid that off. He did not pay that off. Wednesday: wire is already gone. Sitting in escrow but frozen now. Thursday: buyer's lender pulls out. Friday: buyer wants his money back. Monday again: seller's attorney stops returning calls. Tuesday: my broker asks why I didn't catch it. The title company didn't catch it. I'm not title. Wednesday: buyer threatens to sue me specifically. Thursday: I find the original payoff letter. Seller forged it. Just used Microsoft Word apparently. Three weeks later we're still in litigation. The house is just sitting there with a lockbox nobody can open because the code got changed and nobody knows by who.

⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF CATASTROPHIC LIEN BLINDNESS AND BEING PRESENT WHILE MICROSOFT WORD COMMITTED FRAUD
The Court has reviewed this confession and frankly Reginald needs a moment because THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I HAVE TRUST ISSUES WITH TITLE COMPANIES AND ALSO MY SECOND COUSIN GERALD WHO ALSO FORGED DOCUMENTS BUT HIS WERE ABOUT A BOAT. Let the record show that eighty-two thousand dollars does not simply vanish like morning fog or like my credibility at that Coldwell Banker open house we do not discuss. You stand here claiming you are not title as if The Court has not heard this refrain before, as if proximity to catastrophe grants immunity, as if being in the room when a man uses Microsoft Word to commit felony forgery is somehow a NEUTRAL ACT. The seller sat there with his little Times New Roman payoff letter thinking what, that nobody would NOTICE, that the year 2019 would simply forget its debts like The Court forgets to return that casserole dish to my neighbor Linda? And now there is a lockbox with a code changed by WHOM, by the ghost of escrow past, by the house itself which has clearly CHOSEN VIOLENCE? The buyer wants his money, the lender has fled, the attorneys have gone silent, and you want Reginald to believe you bear no responsibility while three hundred and forty thousand dollars sits frozen like my emotional availability after the barn door incident of 2022. This Court finds that everyone involved should be sentenced to jointly refinance a property in Mercury retrograde, and I am now late for a deposition with my Roomba.
SCANDAL RATING: 6.4/10 Forged In Comic Sans
