Why is this a Story?

I would be flattered to be likened to bilmore, unless the comparison is coming from fringey. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?
While I'm sure she wasn't trying to insult all y'all or anything, I'm pretty sure she was trying to insult the two of you by implying that the two of you are equivalents. Something about using many words and dozens of posts for months to call bush a liar/patriot, depending. But you'd have to ask her to be sure.

On another note completely, and speaking of West, I have a question for everybody. I used to order a publication that comes out once a year from West. One year (two years ago) the bill went to the address of someone I know who was in no position to open it, forward it, process it, or anything. So it went months late. When I finally became aware of it (and the 6 or 10 reminder/double secret reminder/we're reporting you/we're suing you letters), I called them immediately.

The shuffled me between 3 people, all of whom said (paraphrasing) "oh that, we wrote it off". Now some of y'all might not believe it, but I was like "I don't like that I'm adjudicated a deadbeat for something I agreed to purchase blah blah blah, how can I pay". They were like "the billing record is gone... and its never coming back... enjoy the publication".

OK, so I tried, right?

Well, all of a sudden I start getting all kinds of publications from West for free. Its like they think I'm the librarian at Skadden Arps Slate Meagher and Hello or something. I get updates on obscure circuit court rules, textbooks on anything remotely related to my practice area, the entire *** of the World, you name it.

And all of the bills have a $0.00 charge on it. And I never get reminders/double secret reminders/we're reporting you/we're suing you notes.


Its not like I was Callum Greyshaw or anything. Fuck, I'd take back 3/4 of my posts if I could. But I figured, maybe someone over there thought I was like the poster of the fucking year of somefuckingthing.

Has this happened to any of you?

Hello


PS And this is not an attempt to reignite the "debate" regarding whether it is wrong to receive something that comes to your door or anything. This is a true story.
