Default Unreasonable favors.

Is this unreasonable or not ?

Friend A needs to get electronics from a store. Friend B is leaving for work, so friend A is asking B to take him to the store on his way. This probably takes 20minutes of B's time. But B says he is not getting his car back in time and would be late for work.

So B says to A that OP will take you there. Just says it like that. And adds that I don't have anything better to do because I am a poker player. Friend B has said this same line before, and I have said to him about that, but he is not the listening type.

I live pretty far away from A, the whole trip would take me about 1h 30minutes in the traffic. If A had a car, it would take him about 30minutes to do the job.

I have done several other favors for A after B had said I would do it, those favors were smaller. Both are good long time friends.

I said I wouldn't do it, part because I was pissed at B and part because It was unreasonable. B said I was a dick, A didn't comment at all.



You be the judge

tell him to take a cab or wait until a day when it is either more convenient for you or the other guy can take him.

TV? or what? you're being vague, but I'm thinking that any-item-too-big-for-the-bus is eligible for home delivery, no? have him have it delivered.
