The weird thing about credit cards is that after you use them to buy things, the credit card companies actually expect you to pay them back. It's also weird how usually the things you buy with a credit card are things you'd NEVER pay for with cash because it would feel too real -- things you wouldn't want to admit to yourself that you wanted. You know, like porn or lobster dinners; airline tickets; a top hat, walking sticks, spats; novelty items like edible cars, or strap-on cars or, I dunno, exploding chocolate cars. Stupid shit. You would never buy that with cash. You'd be like: shit, man, I'm really spending this here green-ass cash on this here crap; damn, fuck! Instead, with the credit card, it's like: slap, swipe, sign! That's not money -- it's just a complicated homeboy handshake.
But so anyway it turns out the credit card people want the money back, even though you spent it on embarrassing shit. Then they want more money on top of that! That's weak. But the good news is that you don't have to send them cash. You can send them a check, which is also not really money. Checks are like a small, decorative Mad Libs, except they're not funny unless you write "poop" in the memo. Heh. Which reminds me of this time I won a hundred bucks off this guy in a poker game, and he was miffed about having to write me a check for it, so in the memo he wrote "for fucking a dead deer," so that when I handed it to the bank teller she'd look at me all "oh mah gah this dude fucked a deer." But of course nobody cared about the illegible drunken scrawl on my check -- they just handed me a stack of ACTUAL REAL CASH, which I used to buy a stack of ACTUAL REAL GUNS, because my gun dealer won't take plastic. And when the zombies came, we were ready, blasting off the tops of their heads as they crested the hill between here and the cemetary. 0 comments |
