Is it just me or are people a little rude nowadays??

Hello all..how are you all doing?
We are all fine..just had a few days off to catch up with everything that needed doing that didn't get done whilst we were all poorly..all done now.
Over the weekend i joined Freecycle..i have quite a lot to offer and actually don't want anything..i thought maybe a good way to get rid of stuff..I have sorted a few bits out and what i can't sell on Ebay i thought i would give away. Sounds good right..if only it was that easy.
I listed 4 things on offer..got replies to all 4 things from the same person..i thought great she can have the lot..didn't hear anything back..so i emailed her  and this is the reply..Sorry my email just broke and my Satnav not working so i don't want them now..suspicious or just a total time waster???..ok so not a problem..
Next a nice email for an item i was offering ..the lad arranged a pick up and took it..brilliant.
After that i got an email from someone else wanting this item also..i replied it had just gone..then he emailed back and said " does it have a bulb"..i said "no sorry the item has gone and you would have had to buy a bulb for it"..the one i got back read " well i don't want it then if i have to buy a bulb for it"..i mean is it just me or does that sound rude..i was bloody giving it away..all you had to do was buy a fluffing bulb you tight git!!!
It just makes me wonder sometimes why i bother trying to be nice and helpful and also polite..i don't expect hearts and flowers and people to be on bended knees for ever saying thank you..but come on be nice.
I know not everyone is like this but when i do come up against people like this i despair..where are your manners..do you have any..do you know how to use them..were you actually taught them..or are you just a greedy grabber out for anything you can get for nothing..it makes my blood boil..

I just read my Bloggy friend Sue@Our New Life in the Country..and how people are aiming insults and critcism at her..saying she is doing it wrong and this that and the other..well folks if you are that perfect why not show us how to do it..and don't be so rude as to presume your right all the time.
Sorry folks rant over..
