So apparently I tried to buy an XBox last week in Pittsburgh

[The Brain]

someone used my driving licence to get a 42" TV.

That must have been a really disappointing road trip.

Cash? WTF

Actual, tactile and tangible legal tender for all debts public and private has not failed anyone for over 10,000 years. 
Conversely, the concept of imaginary currency is the principle reason our economies are as fucked up as they are.

And you're going to WTF me?

People have also loaned each other money for a long time.

[Valmy]

Cash? WTF

Hundra Kronor bills y'all

[The Brain]

Only use those for blow.

Yeah, but when I loan it to you, I have the means to collect.  Namely by kneecapping you with a metal softball bat.
Don't have that ability with financial institutions and their amorphous, made-up invisi-money bullshit.

Which is why I'd never loan you money.  So there.  Nyah.

I enjoyed the East Euro fags plopping four 20 dollar itunes charges on one of my cards. Slightly annoying.

In his hypothetical he was only collecting money that I had borrowed but refused to pay back...not money that he decided was his.

Believe it or not it is still against the law to kneecap someone because they owe you money - even if you really do owe them money.

I prosecuted a guy for this in Whitehorse.  Beat a guy up because he owed him money (which he did), but was shocked when I upped the charge to extortion.

It's deja vu all over again.
