Do people just save these screenshots for 6 years and then decide to randomly post them?
Of course!
Why don’t you have your cards stored in a password manager
Last line of defense. If I have to get up and get the card, I have one more chance to rationalize if its an impulse buy.
Also, a password manager, like Notepad?
No. You use MS Paint and make a wallpaper with all your passwords on it.
As I’ve noted in previous comments, I keep my logins and credit card info in the narrative section of my recipe blog. 15 years and not a single hack.
I didn’t read that can you just provide a link to the end?
Sorry, badly executed joke there. Based unfortunately on reality. Plain text files and Post-It notes to manage security.
Know you’re getting fired? Show up early to work and remove all the post-its from the cubical hell. Bring a lighter and burn them in the bathroom.
Or KeePassXC!
Or just memorize your card number like I do
0 118 999 88199 9119 725

I had the same card number for ~15 years, then it changed for reasons I forget (same bank, and actually changed more than once). I can still remember the old number. I have no idea what the new one is.
Jesus, it’s only 16 digits long.
Ah 2019. I remember it like it was six years ago.
Same except the exact opposite of this where all I want is to go to a store and leave a wad of cash there in exchange for stuff. No registration. No order notifications. No newsletter. No tracking. No hoping the delivery driver forgets to crush my package. Simply, money exchanged for goods and services.
Sorry sir we can’t accept cash unless you have an account on file, may i get your address, phone number, email, occupation, social security number, mothers maiden name, and an emergency contact? You’ll have to sign our terms and conditions to make an account. We also need 2 credit cards on file in case the cash turns out to be counterfit. Please read our newsletter and fill out the survey for a a chance to win a $5 gift voucher valid until the end of the month.
I once made a cashiers head nearly explode by refusing to give her a phone number over the counter to pay cash for a shirt.
“But I need it!”
“No, you really dont.”
“The system wont allow the sale without it”
“So enter a bunch of random numbers, I dont care”
“I cant do that”
“Why?”
“Because then some random person will get texts from us.”
“Ok”
“So can I just…”
“Nope. I exchange money for shirt, thats how this works.”
“Ummmmmm” Smoke starts pouring from ears
Don’t forget fingerprints. And rectal striation biometrics.
“why would someone burn down our store?”
It’s just the re-invention of the mail order catalog.
Ha! I memorized those numbers years ago… I may have a problem…
Could just like, ya know, stop consuming so much bs. If it’s something you cba to go get yourself, you don’t need it that bad.
Disabled people ordering their meds online:
“I’ll should stop consuming”
omg how did anyone get meds before the internet was invented.
How dare anyone use modern inventions to make their lives simpler!
I don’t get what your issue is, man. It’s a self-aware meme about not wanting to mildly inconvenience yourself, when the previous alternative was to greatly inconvenience yourself. I don’t think anyone came here for advice on where and how they should spend their money.
People get real defensive when you suggest they slow down their consumption. Addicts lash out when they need their fix.
