cyranoOne is far more fun than the other. So it goes last.
Last night I went grocery shopping, only a week or so after I ran out of food. At least, I tried to, because I'd taken out my debit card earlier to do Giftmas shopping, and forgot to replace it, and my Capital One card was declined. I got the joy of asking the cashier if she wouldn't mind having somebody replace all of the food I'd hauled to the front of the store, because I wasn't going to be able to pay for it. So that was fun.
In fact, the account was cancelled back in September when I filed for Chapter 7.
I was a long standing customer with regular payments.
I did not file to have any debts with Capital One dismissed.
I could not then do so for quite a few years.
You would think this makes me a Golden Opportunity as a customer. But apparently that does not even make me worthy of a notification that they had cancelled my account. So fuck you, CapOne. Your customer service representatives were very nice but you suck ivory-handled moose wang.
Anyway. More pleasant things.
On the way to work this morning, I got what just might be an awesome game idea.
First Encounter with the Predator was not Arnold's gun-happy platoon of justice. It was Teddy Roosevelt. I'm not sure yet whether it's in Africa or the new world, but I'm leaning toward America. Possibly Spanish American war, possibly on his ranch in the Dakotas (cameo by Seth Bullock!), maybe deep in the Rockies...
I'll probably have to actually see the movie.
