So with the Wendy Davis campaign, Democrats donated millions to entertain Republicans.
One of the interesting lessons of #GamerGate is that there are consequences in being openly disdainful of the market you cater to.

I only have an iPhone 5S so I’m going to have to watch people use Apple Pay while I use a debit card like some caveman.
“Aren’t you going to pay for this?”
“One sec. I have to pull my card out of my wallet.”
“YOU’RE WASTING EVERYONE’S TIME!”
#ApplePay

Yeah, well, I still write checks. I had someone in line behind me remark that he hadn’t written a check since he didn’t know when.
All I can say about iPay is that my debit card’s battery will never die.

That’s a lesson that Newsweek never learned, and many other members of the MSM still haven’t. Jeff Bezos didn’t need the lesson to begin with, which is why the Washington Post is a much better newspaper than it was before he bought it. Come to think of it, it’s a lesson that many churches in the United States (and, I’m sure, elsewhere) haven’t learned.

If we stop writing checks, what other reason do we have to write numbers out? In cursive script, for crying out loud.
Oh the humanity…
So how big of a Dinosaur am I for using cash?
@1,2,3,6 Wait. I thought you guys were all techy geeks.
Does *old* trump *nerdy*? 😛
Where is Basil?? 🙂
I’m going to assume that we’re just talking about a coronal mass that’s built really high.
@8 Anonymiss, when it comes to my money, yes–and I made an ‘A’ in FORTRAN.
@3 Rihar–but ebooks pack a lot tighter on my iPod! Really, I sort of alternate between hardback, paperback and ebook, sort of depending how impatient I am to read the book, too.
