Have you ever heard of furries? It’s not fun sharing a hotel with them, I’ll tell you that much. Next year I hope we get reservations elsewhere. What are furries?

B of A makes me tear my hair out

I tried this online chat with B of A customer service thing the other day. It was even less like talking to a real person than dialing through an automated phone system. Along with many others, I’m fed up with B of A, so I said the following- and check out the automated response!

You: As soon as i figure out what’s going on with my account, i’ll be switching to Citizen’s Bank. This is not the first time I’ve had issues with B of A, and it’s not NEARLY the worst issue I’ve ever had… Not your fault personally, so thanks for the help and have a nice day. But I’m done doing business with B of A.
_: You are most welcome.
_: We appreciate your business and thank you for choosing Bank of America and our Text Chat service.
_: Bye and take care.

Thank you for chatting with us. We value your feedback and would like to invite you to take a moment to complete a survey and tell us how we did today. The survey takes only a few moments to complete and will be presented to you upon closing this window.

Communispace is always saying it’s incredible what your customers will tell you if they think you’re listening. Well, I would have loved to let them know exactly what I thought of their services in the promised survey. However, the survey never appeared. That was the icing on the bad customer relationship management cake that is BofA.

In any case, my little checking account is too small for them to care about me and my business.

Let me know- what bank do you like/dislike and why? Any crazy B of A experiences?

Now that I’ve seen Scott Brown’s pubic hair, I respect him even less.

Ashley Womble’s article offers a few new campaign slogans based on the centerfold. One is:
Vote for Brown. He Has One Hell of a Stimulus Package.

This is pretty darn genius, but I do feel bad for telemarketers… Anyway, the last line of this, at the end of the phone conversation, is the funniest part.

A week’s-worth of strange things

ginaarlie — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 15:03:13 +0000

Yesterday I got on the T. There were no available seats, so I stood holding the dangly-thingy. A middle-aged man seated in front of me said “You can have this seat.”
“No, no I’m fine, thank you though!” I said.
“Really,” he said, getting up. “You can sit on my lap.”
I was visibly horrified, completely shocked that this stranger, who at first appearance seemed perfectly normal, would be so forward and perverse.
There was an elder gentleman to the right of the now-vacant seat, who’s horror seemed to match my own until his wrinkles dissolved into a broad, crinkled grin. “You thought he said ‘You can sit on my lap’ too!” he said, guffawing. “He said ‘He can sit on my lap.’” The older gentleman pointed to the man, who was now picking up his small son on the other side of the train, and placing the boy on his lap.

A large portion of the train heard the whole thing, including the middle-aged man’s wife, and were eventually all laughing. It was great.
Then the older man turned to me once again, and asked, “Is that the first offer you’ve had today?”
“Why, yes,” I said. “Though most days I try to get two or three by noon time.”

Here are some videos for your enjoyment:

This guy fakes an orgasm eating a sandwich, “When Harry Met Sally”-style, to try and win free deli meat for a year.

Have you ever felt tempted to give a subway performer money to STOP playing music until your train comes?

This is a terrible vid., because I didn’t want to be obvious that I was filming this lady. I just thought it was so ironic to hear someone with a very thick accent sing a song like John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Road.” In any case, she followed with a Japanese song, which I had to admit was pretty cool.

No… WAY!!!

So, this ACTUALLY gets better and better as you read on. Please comment/take the poll below- I want to know what you think!

My $0.02:

When dating sites fail you, create your own!

The biggest contradiction I found is his constant derision of those who seek money and material things, while he continually promises to become a “billionaire” and to have two mansions in the near future (in two of the most materialistic cities in America, in my opinion). Also, if you’re so concerned about starving children, quit trying to get rich/spending hours typing out mate requirements, and work on fighting global hunger! You might meet a “Goddess” along the way, stud.

The Biggest Hippie in Boston

ginaarlie — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 01:32:36 +0000

Marie and I went to Boston Music Poll yesterday, a free concert by City Hall, to see Passion Pit (who were formed in Cambridge, MA!!!! and were discovered a year ago at the very same concert!).

In any case, while there I met this awesome guy who looks like he’s from my hometown:

After we took his picture, he mumbled something to me in his stupor.

“What?” I asked.

“I’m proud of you,” he said, baring rotted, missing teeth.

“Why’s that?”

“Because you take care of yourself. You’re in good shape,” he said. “Keep it up.”

“Gee, thanks!” I said. “Uh, you too.”

(I don’t know his name, but he gave me permission to post this pic. though I’m not sure he understood what a blog is.)
