If I Had a ****, Amazon Could **** It

Amazon.com just cancelled three of my book orders because the billing address didn't match the shipping address (hello! I JUST moved!). So now in order to have my books on time for classes (Monday!), I have to pay the ***-raping prices at the university bookstore. ******-*******!

There's $200 I could have used for, say, rent. Seriously, ******-*******!

This reminds me of a new prank show I want to pilot on MTV. It's called FUK'D. As in "I'm shank, and YOU JUST GOT FUK'D!" Sweet idea huh?

Saw the stupidest thing ever last week... e-textbooks that expire after the school year ends. Sure they cost like 33% less than the other books but you don't HAVE it after the year ends, what friggin good is that?

What friggin good is a book period? I mean, you read it, you know it, it's finished. It's like porn, you can only watch the same porno once or twice before the veneer wears off. Books=porn.

I don't make the rules, I just live by them.

You can give your credit card company an "authorized ship-to address" that sometimes avoids these problems.

Believe me, living in France but having a US billing address makes you learn these things.
