If you volunteer at the cat shelter you can pet lots more cats than that. I probably pet 50 different cats today, including 2 fluffy kittens, and it didn't cost me a thing. On the other hand, I have had to seek medical attention twice from being at the cat shelter (once for a bite, once for Bartonella aka cat scratch fever) and that did cost me a fair bit.

theHUNGERian posted:I know this isn't a popular opinion, but that last derail was loving awesome. Almost like having a window seat in a restaurant while the SWAT/CIA/FBI (mods/admins/Lowtax) execute a raid right across the street. I agree. Someone mouthing off with some non-credible bullshit gets what is coming to him, when he persists despite a clear warning. If it is real, then file a report through proper channels (law enforcement or otherwise). Don't come in with a wide claim and refuse to provide proof.

NancyPants posted:It isn't possible to just put someone down as a cosigner even if you have their SSN, unless she also forged his signature, which would be fraud. That last part is a terrible thing to say. A credit account for a few grand seems like no big deal to me, if it freaks you out maybe you have trust issues.

HelloIAmYourHeart posted:She specifically said "cosigner" but who really knows? Yeah if she is being deliberately misleading that is going to lead to trust problems. Seems easier to just be up front about it imo. There is a difference between not telling someone about an under the radar credit account to get a good deal on a purchase and deliberately hiding it.

Man none of you guys can take a joke. It wasnt me that made it but I realized it was a joke a mile away. Yes, hitting women is bad. Also telling SlowMo to do heroin was bad, but none of you gave a poo poo then. Maybe you should go hang out on Tumblr with other overly sensitive people.

My coworker gave out his SSN to a scammer that cold called him at work. The theif has been going HAM for the last 2 weeks, charging up CCs, taking out loans, even porting out his phone number to intercept validation calls and SMS 2fa. He waited for 2 weeks to file a police report. He mused last week that maybe he should ring up a bunch of stuff at Target himself and claim it was the thief instead. I don't think he was joking.

If he does it online from behind proxies, and has it delivered to an address that can't be connected to him, then yes, that is a good idea.

And then suffer the hyperdeflation needed to make it worth anything. Like, did people think if it stopped inflating it would suddenly return to previous levels?

Bad with Government bribes: buying a $900,000 horse: https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...089b_story.html [quote="" post=""] Samsung is also suspected of having agreed to an $18 million contract with a consulting firm owned by Choi and based in Germany, considered a front for funding Choi’s daughter’s equestrian training there. In a hearing in the national assembly last month, Lee flatly denied any involvement in a bribery scheme, although he admitted that Samsung had bought a $900,000 horse for Choi’s daughter. [/quote]
