Oh my.

A primitive can't figure out PayPal.

**** PAYPAL -- They won't let me donate to DU

I've had it with this PIECE OF SHIT service. They already hosed my on all of my subscriptions and forced me to close my account. Now when I try to give a $100 donation to DU, I get this:

Based on the details of your transaction, you will need to sign up for a PayPal account and add and verify a bank account to complete this payment. Once it is verified, you can return to the merchant's site to initiate this payment again. Please provide the information requested below and click 'Save Information' to sign up.

Of course, even if I would give them my back account information (ha!), there's nothing marked "Save Information" on the ****ing page.

"PayPal - the safer, easier way to pay." My Ass.

I think the grassy primitive has one too many "zeroes" on the alleged contribution.

I bet.

It's a mixed bonfire; about half the primitives insisting PayPal's okay, and the half insisting PayPal's not okay.

And we get this, from an expert on the matter:

39. Their business practices leave a lot to be desired but you can choose to donate via a credit card without ever signing up with them.

Does he think that Paypal will work for him without a valid funding source? :thatsright:

Truth is that the DUmmie is too stupid to figure it out...it's only so easy an 8 year old could do it.

You mean PayPal isn't a money source like, say, FreeCouponsForAll.com is a coupon source?

How about just sending in a picture of a $100 bill?

If the DUmmie is so eager to throw $100 away, and he truly believes in the liberal philosophy, he should just send that money to the IRS.

They take personal checks and/or money orders.

Paypal is a wonderful tool.  Being stationed overseas, it's allowed me to manage my bank accounts in the States.  I use it for various ends like ebay, hiring services, etc...

I've not had a single complaint about the service in the years I've used it.  It's extremely easy to use, and I've never had a single fear about the safety of my finances with them.

I think this DUmmy is just an idiot.

It could also buy two nights at Motel 6 for some poor under-the-bridge family DUmmies seem to always live near.

No argument here, except for one thing--why is this DUmmy any different from the rest of the cesspool?

Another thing. How come the guy has $100 in discretionary income to spend on DU in this *Shrub economy?

That's always my question, which is why I suspect the gassy primitive added an extra "zero" to the alleged donation.

People homeless, food pantries empty, the price of gasoline skyrocketing, as the primitives so often complain, but then the same primitives minutes later boast about "almost" buying a $500,000 home or their brand-new pick-up truck or their cruise in the Caribbean or all these monstrously-huge "donations" they make to Skins's island or the Democrat party or primitive causes.

It seems to me that what they're really boasting about are two things:

1)  The amount of drugs they've done in the past--how else could they imagine such things in this horrible Boooosh economy?

2)  The amount of global warming they're causing, from all of the hot air that they emit in writing/telling these stories.
