i just got a super predatory debt collection letter. it was for a $113 debt from citizens bank, who i had an account with when i was 16 (20 years ago). the letter appeared to be an offer to cancel the debt if i paid them $22.75. HOWEVER, the actual wording is, “The amount of the debt is $113.77 and we will accept $22.75.” so, no MENTION of canceling the debt, but the implication is there because many collectors of current debt offer to settle for a percentage.

at the bottom of the letter, it says:
“Because of the age of your debt, we cannot sue you for it and we cannot report to any credit reporting agency. In many circumstances, you can renew the debt and start the time period for the filing of a lawsuit against you if you take specific actions such as making payments on the debt or making a written promise to pay.”

basically… i don’t owe this money anymore, the debt is so old they can’t legally sue me for it OR put it on my credit report, BUT if i take their generous offer of paying them $22.75… they can sue me for the full amount because making a payment makes the debt current.

no thanks, jefferson capital systems llc.

always, always read the entire letter! it is so important because of semantic awfulness like this!

i dont care how corny iris by the goo goo dolls is bc i love iris by the goo goo dolls and i will continue screaming iris by the goo goo dolls from the top of my lungs every time i hear iris by the goo goo dolls for the rest of my miserable life 

To be fair this song is the literal embodiment of Destiel and i dont care how corny Destiel is bc i love Destiel and i will continue screaming Destiel from the top of my lungs every time I see Destiel for the rest of my wildly happy and validated life

Well, it was written for an angel/human couple. The movie itself is depressing and pretty much forgettable, but that song is one of my favorites.

I can’t really understand people who complain about the possibility in “TEO: Skyrim” to marry a same-sex NPC ‘cause “it doesn’t fit with the whole medieval setting of the series”.
Yeah, you’re right, how could Bethesda dare to do something so anachronistic? I mean, the wonderful Middle Ages, such a beautiful period. Remember those old good times when we could marry hot lizards?

Yeah
Me neither

Ah yes, the Elder Scrolls, the medieval setting complete with orbital space stations, time-traveling cyborg demigods, and magic email.

Plus, institutions very like same-gender marriage did exist in medieval Europe. Up until around the 13th Century, “spiritual brotherhood” ceremonies that were identical to marriages all but in name – including joining hands and reciting prayers at an altar and a ceremonial kiss at the end – were commonly performed between two men. Though prohibitions against the practice began to arise in the early 1300s (prohibitions which in themselves constitute evidence for the prevalence of such ceremonies – you don’t specifically ban something that never happens!), it’s believed that in some regions it persisted well into the 16th Century.

(And that’s without even touching on the matter of pirates…)

In a cauldron prepare the following:

• One press release from an actor, network executive, or writer
• One large bucket of salt
• Fresh juice from 1 lemon
• Vodka to taste

Chant while stirring widdershins, “pr is not showrunning, pr is not showrunning, pr is not showrunning”

Apply liberally to dash.  For best results, prepare in a closet at midnight.
