Ever had the credit card company screw up your personal info? Christ, I got diverted to like EVERY department as I tried to fix the problem of them fucking up my Birthday. And at every turn they try to sell you something.

ugh, what a day.

1. I wouldn't have bothered
unless it said you were too young to have a credit card.

one of my goals in life is to poison all the personal information about me out there.

3. Did you ever mess with your social security number ?
I did once and the results were amusing - but i had to undo what i did if i ever expected to get paid for working at the University of Texas.
