    Something feels... wrong...

    What a strange place. Half pub, half art gallery. Most art galleries don't serve chicken wings.

    I learned from that exact same incident to add money to my psn account in bulk increments and spend only from the account wallet, because it can easily cause credit or debit cards to be flagged for abuse. The cards are flagged based on amount of purchases rather than loss of money in even given amount of time. I literally bought six or so ninety-nine cent add-ons and had to call and verify my identity to unlock my card. I don't know if master thieves frequently candy shops or if banks have never heard of console stores, but they are relentless about those things.

    Just ordered a book and a t-shirt from Asia off of Amazon. I'm so excited! I know it's going to take them upwards of a month to get here, but I'm so excited!

    Anyway, the shirt I ordered is the Zeagoo Summer Dog Head Print Shirt, which can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/Zeagoo-Summer-Cotton-Sleeve-T-shirt/dp/B00HVVX8DW

    It comes from China. The book I ordered is the 25th Anniversary Phantasy Star Visual Chronicle which contains a lot of concept art from what is one of my favorite video game franchises of all time, so of course, I'm really excited about getting it. It's all in Japanese since it was never released in the US, but honestly, art is a language all its own. :love:

    Also, Yuzuru Hanyu is pretty magnificent. :grin:

    I'd like to be, shall we say, "consoling" Jeremy Abbott after his bad performance.

    Happy that I have a flex day tomorrow. After the week I had (and even though it was busy in a good way, and in many exciting), I definitely need it.

    It's frequent extremely small purchases to a small set of vendors that's suspicious. Lots of thieves will try a card for a small amount to see if it's valid. Large, unusual purchases are flagged much quicker, or have many more possible reasons for being declined, especially if they are from an inconsistent location from where the card was recently used. Also, if they are trying to get a lot of money, and have a lot of card numbers, it's much more reliable to get it with a bunch of small transactions that most people won't notice or bother disputing than to take large transactions where an ID might get checked, or a card be readily thrown over it's limit.

    Playstation network is where credit card thieves use it first. It's no surprise that it was flagged to protect you. That happened to me too.

    I'm usually not a person that watches figure skating, but this team competition thing has been interesting. You get a little of all the styles, which is cool!

    Okay, so Jason David Frank wants to have an MMA fight with CM Punk, and at first I didn't know who Jason was. Then they were saying he's the green power ranger, and I was like "Tommy?!" :eek: :love: I remember loving Tommy years ago when I watched the original power rangers with my brother, and I haven't seen this guy in forever.

    Anyway I especially would love to see this match-up, it'd be really cool, but who knows what Punk's gonna do. It sucks that he quit WWE (if only it was part of a storyline, but it seems he's really gone) but he's interested in UFC, and maybe we'll see him there one day. He's got ju-jitsu training under his belt, so it'd be cool if he went for it. Though his body has taken a beating from wrestling, and his health isn't 100% right now...

    Still would be awesome if he came back to wwe, if only for a little bit, and so he can get a proper send-off. I really loved him....:icon_sad:

    No prob. Though will give you one work of advice- there is no 100% original idea. What matters is not so much the concept but the presentation, if that makes sense. I guarantee it, give two authors the same premise an they'll come up with two different completely novels.

    -

    Why do I put up with my family? They don't respect my identity, they treat me like I'm mentally handicapped, they don't listen...

    I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself. I want to live.

    Well, today is the last Tonight show with Jay Leno. It's sad, but at the same time, I'm excited to see Jimmy Fallon take over the tonight show and see what he does with it :slight_smile:

    True, but it was something that was frequently done on that card. I had to have a thirty minute phone call and jump through ever hoop in order to justify the purchases. Small purchases are common with indentity theft and if I'm was making small purchases that amounted to large sums in total than I can understand shutting down the card immediately. The curiosity may warrant a call or notification, but an automatic shutdown for minimal spending on a venue commonplace to the card holder's activity is a bit extreme regardless of the number of transactions.

    Is there some rule that thread titles actually have to have some relevance to what the thread is about, or is it fair game to just throw a dart at a thesaurus and use whatever pretentious rubbish it hits?
