PESOS back, all four. They nursed the beer for 2 complete games. Bought no food and left no tip. Do the math on what it costs the bar to support their
sports and internet habit!
Next, Friend near me rents his home to a "couple" from Vancouver. Shows up a few day later to check on them and there are 5 people ( canadians) in his
house. WTF. Nice guy that he is says thats fine just pay for an extra "pila" of water. No problem..Two days before they, 5< of them left, they
decided to take his small beach launch boat out for a spin. Thrached it on the beach in a wave, broke the boat and ruined the motor. Very concerned,
my neighbor tells them they must leave the next day as that is theft and cops will be called if they are not gone by 12pm. At 11:30 am he finds his
Suburban broken down on the road out of fuel...They had found keys and used it to move. House thrashed, washer broken, boat ruined.
He did track them down and all they said was " sorry dude you can keep our $200 deposit. Cops thought different..Hope they enjoy the cold in Canada as
they may not return.
My personal neighbors, really nice Canadians whom are embarresed by their compadres, have removed their plates from their local car so they will not
be labeled....says volumes.
Each country has their own derlicks. It just seams Canada's all show up here.
Can't wait until Easter!!! |
Dear "jakethedog"
It just so happens that we know that Jake the dog (in real life) has an owner who we had a bad experience with. We know exactly who you are. What a
colossal load of crap your posts are. First lie, right off the hop, its your rental not a neighbours or a friends. Why don't you just come out and say
all this happened to you and that these are your own "experiences". Hmm, could it be perhaps that you're embarrassed by the lies you are spreading?
You are the homeowner and i am one of the Canadians who stayed at your home. I witnessed first hand what actually happened, and unlike you i'm a
rational person and so i will speak objectively here.
Normally i wouldn't succumb to arguing with trolls in a forum, but after several friends forwarded this to me i really felt like i needed to defend
myself, my friends, and (oh boy) my country, from your lies. You charged us $3400 for 13 days, not small change by any means, for a home that was
worth not even half that rate. Upon arrival the house was in a state of squalor. Hours spent washing dirty dishes (the dishwasher was full), towels,
and removing dead bugs in the fridge. Behind the sink taps were all brown with crud. There was dog hair everywhere (Jakes), and the sheets had clearly
been slept in. You blamed US for the burnt out washer? We should never had had to wash it to begin with, but the comforter you had on the bed was
covered in dog hair and smelled like old man. We used it for a normal load just before we left and it worked fine. All of this was completely
unnacceptable for paying guests to deal with. What does a cleaner cost down there anyways maybe $40? Should i mention the little "surprise" that was
waiting for us in the 2nd bedroom? A rotting dead mouse that made the house smell disgusting.
You claim we stole and then ruined your boat... do you actually believe your own lies now? It's one thing to be disgruntled, but to be so upset over
things that your making up? Heres the truth, objective in its entirety. You were kind enough to give access to your "toys" which by the way, your boat
is listed in the ad for guest use. See for yourself.

Theft and cops, telling us we had to leave? What are you talking about? none of that happened. Ultimately, there were no paddle boards for our use as
advertised in your listing. So, yes we did take the boat out for a morning of fishing after you repeatedly encouraged it. After using the boat it was
returned to the exact same spot, using the exact same runners in the sand, with the gas and rods neatly put away where YOU TOLD US to put them. It was
high tide that night, and combined with the windiest conditions seen that month the boat was sent down the beach. What you fail to mention is that
this accident could have just as easily happened to you. Why don't you point out that the "awful Canadians" spent a day combing the beach and
collecting what was lost, as well as fixing broked rivets and hauling the motor up to the house. The boat itself was fine and they gave you $200 to
help fix the motor (at the time the local shop said it would be $300 to fix) you guys even shook hands on the amount before we left. Why didn't you
speak up then? No, you would prefer to vent in forums and lie online like a coward
This is the part of your story that is truly laughable. Implying that we stole your truck, ran it out of fuel, thrashed your house, broke your washer?
you were nice enough to offer your suburban to us for a couple days (we did not ask- he offered. We had a friend arriving with a rental car) The truck
refused to start when he initially tried it. He complained that he just paid a guy to fix it and it shouldn't be giving him trouble. We popped the
hood and i found a little air leak in the fuel line. We fixed the line, then i helped him purge the air bubbles out (after like an hour) we finally
get it running. We were grateful and we put diesel in the tank.
When the couple staying in the second bedroom began to complain about a smell we told them about the mouse (we were too embarrassed to tell them) but
it turned out there was a bigger problem. A couple days later it still stunk. We figured out the smell was coming from the extra mattress propped up
in the corner. We flipped it over and a couple dead mice (and live ones) fell out along with a nest with mice feces. Our 5th guest was unable to join
us and had to stay elsewhere "2 bedroom, sleeps 6..." as per your ad, however, the house sleeps 4, unless you count the mice infested mattress. And
where would he sleep with the mattress? in the living room? He paid $900 as his share and never stayed at all. It was easier for our other friends to
fit him in their place. You always knew there was at least 4 coming by the way, and what does it matter we rented the WHOLE HOUSE and its suppose to
sleep 6!!! If it wasn't for the boat motor we would be asking for money back.
-Those four Canucks you are referring to are my friends from Canada staying in a seperate residence. The "college kid" bartender we all know by name
and frequently hang out with here in La Ventana. We have been to his place, checked out his dune buggy, partied with him on new years..... yada yada.
The beer here is very cheap compared to home - i find it hard to believe that they would not tip especially that specific bartender. "they nursed the
beer for 2 complete games" NOW I KNOW that you are lying LOL. You think we dont have a tv at our place? get with the times man. Too bad forums can be
seen world wide.
your "neighbours... removed their (licence) plates so they would not be labelled..." Why do i highly doubt that... especially how everything you said
before that was complete lies. If they did, its likely because they believed the garbage that was coming out of your mouth.
Is this thread really about singling out Canadians? Canadians and americans are neighbours. People from Oregon and British Columbia have more in
common then people from Oregon and say Florida.
Personally, I hate ignorant people. People who lie and are prejudice, and slander others for their own personal satisfaction. You, sir, are just an
ethnocentric bully, an old man with too much time on his hands.
