Finally, a LinkedIn lunatic I can agree with.

Do you really think homeless methheads have bank cards?

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 2 points 21 hours ago

Not their own, of course.

Do it enough times, you'll get treated to an exclusive hotel with free food and lodging! If you like ramen, they even have an exclusive flavour!

If the £ wasn't indication enough, this ain't in the US.

[–] cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, I know about GBP. But the ass backwards US has had tap to pay for a couple weeks now, maybe longer. I know they lag behind other parts of the world, and some retailers still don't support it, but it is relevant in freedom-land, too. /s

US tap to pay sucks compared to most of the world though.

Take a guess?

Plot twist, it's all of them.

Jokes on you (I know, it's satire) I keep spent gift cards for the express purpose of carding doors when I have to. No chip, and even if you had a mag reader there's $1.36 left on the card, have fun.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Thanks, now I'm up -44.49£ 😎 (assuming 50% card to cash conversion & 1.33 USD : 1 GBP)

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have fun! If you can't convert it to cash you might be able to get like 1/5th of a coffee!

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's that like a Wish Sandwich?

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

They sell sandwiches on wish now? I wouldn't trust it, probably rotten by the time it goes through customs, and full of lead to boot.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 22 hours ago

Yeah, far safer to stick with a Temu burritu or two. 🤌🏼

[–] ohellidk@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Its not like he's stealing their money, those cards are probably stolen too.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

Ah, yes, the ol' "stolen goods but I didn't steal 'em" defense. Ironclad classic.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

often try

30 in the last 10 years.

[–] bonenode@piefed.social 18 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, you see, driving_crooner, this is what we would call a joke.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Thanks for your insightful comment 👍

When I was a kid, I fell into a river and a fish bumped me out of the water. I was supposed to die. But a fish bumped me out with its nose. That was the earth telling me I'm supposed to do something great.
