This country is so f*cked up.
Earlier this month a flier was released by the FBI saying that people who
pay in cash for coffee might be terrorists. No, I'm not kidding. I *
WISH* I was kidding. Here's a snippet of text from the flier:
Quote"Using cash for small purchases like a cup of coffee, gum and other items is a good indication that a person is trying to pass for normal without leaving the kind of paper trail created using a debit or credit card for small purchases."
A "good indication"?? Seriously, that's what they consider a "good indication"? Could it just be that I don't want to put $1.29 charge on my credit card for gum or a candy bar?
The most recent update asks coffee shop owners, baristas and other customer-service specialists to be on the lookout for the enemy who walks among us, TEH TERRORISTS, OMG WTF BBQ!!!
