There is nothing in the bible about gay marriage. or being gay. or whatever. if you want to use a book that was written in a different time and place by a bunch of different people for various political reasons to defend your hate, then you probably wouldn't mind: bringing back slavery, committing mass genocide, viewing pornography (read that song of solomon real close), and performing various hate crimes, among other things. stop using religion to slew your hate.
Finally, someone who gets it.
As a consumer, I have witness how stressful some customers make the employees at stores I go to. I hear them giving people grief over things they don't control, and then want the world on top of that. I have been known to tell customers that are raising cain with the employees of the store I am shopping at to go somewhere else so others can enjoy the experience while they are there. Imagine the silence when another customer told them they were wrong!
:*-( Sorry bout the luck. You need to research more when you invest. While they misinformed you, you should have known better than to accept a verbal answer over written proof. Hopefully, you learned from the experience. And, btw, without written proof of the answer, or a confirmed voice conversation that was recorded, not much you can do. Even if there was, I am not sure that you could since it is now under the protection of the government...
You need to put a stop payment through your bank. If you haven't done that, you need to quickly. It costs money, for certain, but so does the internet. If you are on such a fixed income, get rid of the internet til you can get back on your feet.
Other stores WILL NOT refund them either, as a matter of policy. You need to read the fine print when purchasing and take a little responsibility for your own money.
You still have to have minutes available to use the text messaging feature. Again, read the AT&T terms and conditions.
Always remember the old adage, "If it sounds too good to be true, chances are it is."
Anyone who believes in a free lunch needs to get a freakin grip! NO SUCH THING! Always strings attached.
What do you think a cash advance is? It is CREDIT. Whether a card is used or an advance into your account, it is still CREDIT. You have to be naive to think it is free.
Telephone = Door-to-Door Sales of the Technology Era.
Anyone who let's one in the house needs a mental check.
Honestly, I do not pity anyone who gets scammed by such an obvious ploy. You didn't think it through and ended up getting screwed in the end.
Maybe I am getting old at 32, but I think that in this day, if you fall for something like that, you are just as dumb as the criminal who pulled it off.
The only thing I have ever bought off an infomercial that worked was (drum roll)... MY COLLECTION OF CDS FROM TIMELIFE. And they are awesome!
I won't buy anything on one of those stupid 1/2 hour wastes of time.
People like Lisa Dolce and others are the demise of the economy. If a person has something go wrong, the blame is automatically misplaced on someone else, instead of taking responsibility for not doing research. So the gut reaction is SUE SUE SUE. It is because of these people that HONEST people get to pay higher prices at the store, and get screwed in the end.
Buck up and take a little responsibility, people. Quit blaming others because you didn't do a little footwork and time to find out if you were getting the best deal or not. I am tired of paying for your "free lunch."
You do not understand, obviously. If a company such as Microsoft or Mattel or whoever says NO SALE UNTIL xyz DATE, that means NO SALE. And if a company says they will not hold it, it is because they are not allowed to do so. WalMart and Target will not be any better, so do not fool yourself.
Tamana, that is the reason why companies sell extended services. Maybe the lesson has been learned.
Do the people who post here on this site realize that it is not going to do them any good if they post crap like this one? They are barking on the wrong tree. JESUS!
You seriously have to be kidding. You bought something that was broken in the box, a common occurrance in shipping massive amounts of freight, and you have time to take it back to the store, and you have the box, and you have the receipt, and you have the merchandise, AND YOU REFUSE TO RETURN OR EXCHANGE IT? AND YOU BLAME KMART? I think you are a liar, stole the fan, and the jeans, and are suffering from a case of instant Karma. You give the rest of us REAL consumers a bad name.
I decided to check into the hub-bub you talk about. wow. amazing... I feel for you. how could anyone be so closed minded to what someone else is saying? they really bashed on you good, it would seem. that sucks... are you getting the sarcasm? in the posts that I will assume were yours, there was nothing that even remotely was passible for logic, but only for blind intolerance. the kind that allowed slavery for so long, and still is around today (evidenced by the kkk).
You were removed because you were spewing hatred and were told not to do so. you continued, and were removed. you were told several times, and warned not to continue, but did so. according to the terms and conditions of the site, you were in violation, and thus removed. hiding behind an ancient book does not make you right. period.
Now, on to the meat...
So god does not tolerate homosexuality? but he (in the form of jesus), tolerated thieves, harlots, and drunks? seems a bit of a two sided blade. god created man and woman, in genesis. adam and eve. let's think about this logically. there were only two people. they had two son's. one killed the other and was banished. he went to the land of nod to start his own tribe. with who? monkeys? snakes? if you read this the way you choose (which is very literal to only support your "high moral" qualities), he had to have died alone since god only created two! so that again leaves adam and eve. sure they had more children. but how did those children have more? remember, god only created adam and eve, who originally had two boys, cain and abel, one of which was murdered, the other sent off to play with himself, leaving only adam and eve. the only answer is incest. so, reading the bible the way you do (literally), god hates homosexuals (which in a post on the original website you say is shown in the destruction of sodom and gommorra... a poor reading if taken in context of the entire story, but again...), but incest is okay! oh my goodness.
Don't bring anything about the 10 commandments either. they were laws that were made long before the bible (check out the code of hammurabi, which predates the ten commandments by a couple thousand years). besides, there are two versions in the bible, so either someone doesn't know they were there before, or it didn't get edited well.
Don't tell of "god's unchanging word." that is a lie. it changed somewhere around... um matthew 1:1. suddenly, god is no longer so vengeful, spiteful, and hateful, but is a hippie! if you are a christian, you will notice that jesus goes against what god had laid out in the old testament. if god is infallible (if that is a big word it means perfect), then there should be no jesus. the new testament proves that either "god's word changes," or that god isn't as perfect as you would want to believe.
Obviously, for a person who is so "bible literate," you do what most bible thumpers do, pick and choose, take out of context, and apply to your cause. you give true christians, thinking christians, honest christians, proper christians, true followers of jesus a bad name. honestly, and I don't believe this will ever happen, if there is a second coming, jesus would be appalled by what hate you and your ilk have spewn in his name.
As a taxpayer, I think the person who wrote this complaint on taxpayer dollars, should be fired with cause for wasting my money.
As the crusader for Commen Sense, this probably would have been avoided HAD YOU ASKED DURING THE PROCESS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF AND DID A LITTLE RESEARCH BEFORE CLOSING! By not doing this, you actually took the process in your own hands.
As a crusader for COMMON SENSE, did any of you DO RESEARCH ON THIS PROUCT BEFORE YOU PURCHASED? As a computer user, i DO NOT BUY ANYTHING THAT IS A SOFTWARE THE INTERNET unless it is direct from an mainstream vendor such as McAfee, Symantec, Adobe, etc. You won't be getting your money back from the creators of this VIRUS, so just chalk it up to a LESSON LEARNED.
If you don't understand that, I have a lot of things to sell you that won't do what you want it to, and I will gladly take your money.
Had you taken your teenager in there before? Had you noticed things that might be inappropriate for them to see? Why so lax about them seeing stuff that might be considered more mature for their eyes? ESPECIALLY A CHILD WHO IS NOT YOURS.
If someone tells you there is product that is not for the young, it isn't for YOUR protection, it is for the owner's. And when you were asked to leave, you were then trespassing, and your refusal could have landed you in jail. Even if it isn't written, all business owners have the right to refuse service to ANYONE for ANY REASON. Although they probably should have phrased it differently.
As a crusader for COMMON SENSE, i ask that you READ THE FINE PRINT BEFORE YOU PURCHASE ANYTHING. This society has become a bevy of people who don't use their COMMON SENSE and then go on to blame everyone but themselves. STOP BEING THE VICTIM AND DO A LITTLE RESEARCH FOR YOURSELF! And, if your kid has a phone, 1) you are an idiot for giving a cell to any kid without restrictions, 2) MAKE THEM PAY FOR IT!
Hope ya enjoy WalMart where there is NO meat counter, NO customer service, and your "hard earned dollars" are SENT overseas JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE! If you feel that WalMart is better than anyplace you currently go, you need to think again. That company has a long history of screwing the manufacturer and causing costs to go up to other companies, yet no one has the guts to call them on it. On top of that, they pay jack squat to their employees and have forced off clock overtime in many cases. If you value your "hard earned dollar, " you really need to rethink your strategy. Try a LOCAL meat market, a farmer's market, and so on. Deal with a local electronics provider, clothing store, or whatever. Until you do that, stop complaining about everything!
To the first respondent, WalMart does the same thing, so do just about every other Piggly Wiggly, Dillons, etc as far as packaging. Get a reality check.
