Winnie G Posted October 27, 2004 Report Posted October 27, 2004 Twelve Thoughts for 2005 12. Life is sexually transmitted. 11. Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. 10. Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. 9. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks. 8. Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs. 7. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. 6. Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again. 5. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. 4. Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents? 3. In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal. 2. Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. 1.Many terrorists come to America legally and hang around on expired visas (some for as long as 10-15 years) . Now take Blockbuster, for example. You're two days late with a video rental and those people are all over you like a rash. I think we should put Blockbuster in charge of US immigration. Quote
Guest TheProudDuck Posted October 27, 2004 Report Posted October 27, 2004 Pretty good, especially the Blockbuster one. I think I'm single-handedly responsible for about 1% of their share price with all the late fees they've grabbed from me. Quote

Movie Pass..... if you watch a lot of movies.....it comes in quite handy....no late fees. :) Quote

Apparently there's something in the fine print about keeping even movies rented with a monthly pass out too long. Quote
john doe Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 I almost hate Blockbuster, I refuse to do business with them. I finally sent in my membership card the last time they sent me a letter claiming I owed them money and threatening to send it to a collection agency. So now I drive twice as far to give my business to Hollywood Video. Even if I get late fees from them, they don't demand that I pay them immediately and usually will take them off if I protest the charges. Plus, now I have the MVP card which gives me free rentals every third weekend of the month. That was $15 well-spent. Quote
DisRuptive1 Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 Isn't Hollywood video owned by blockbuster or doesn't some company own them both? Quote
