    I cancelled my Mastercard that I had from Ass-Pro/Cabelas the other day. The snooty bitch that I finally got to talk to tried everything to get me to reconsider. Finally I just said cancel the goddamm card already. She got very short and sarcastic (she tried) with me. Finally got it done & cut up the card. I have a Sheels Visa now, better rewards.

    I obsessively buy online, but it has nothing to do with price. I can buy any thing I want online, and have it delivered to my house in 2-3 days. Or, my other option is, drive for an hour plus, fight with crowds of disgusting people, including raging, entitled liberals, only to be told by an uninterested, over-payed employee tell me that "we don't carry that, but we can order it for you", or just "we don't carry that". Go home empty-handed (another hour drive). Wait 3 weeks, call original store, find out there is a delay with my order, wait three MORE weeks, drive another hour BACK to the store, only to find out previous employee made my order wrong, and got the wrong item. Drive BACK home, empty-handed, AGAIN.

    I'll just do my shopping online, and get what I want / need.

    I order online, since I can't find everything on my shopping list in stock in my local WalMart.

    I noticed that a lot with auto parts, and they are often the exact same supplier/manufacturer.
    "Every person’s life is theirs by right. An individual’s life can and must belong only to himself, not to any society or community, or he is then but a slave. No one can deny another person their right to their life, nor seize by force what is produced by someone else, because that is stealing their means to sustain their life. It is treason against mankind to hold a knife to a man’s throat and dictate how he must live his life."

    That's Biblical. Neither a borrower or lender be. Or something similar to that.
