lissa_quonI really appreciated that week free subscription's sample, I really do. Being a broke college student it was nice to browse around with the big thumbnails and be able to search for once.
But with the subscription running out I really find your begging and pleading me to send you money so I can continue to enjoy these luxuries annoying. The image of the weeping mascot pleading like a beaten red-headed step child 'don't leave me!' was a bit over the top (considering hes typically a grumpy devil mascot) but not too bad.
But following that up AFTER I hit the 'no thanks' button with the order screen to buy a subcription, that was irritating. And then even after I said no when I FINALLY get to my messages and such I discover you had so thoughtfully placed a year's subscription in my shopping cart. Thats crossing the line buddy, thats becoming a pushy vacuum salesman and jehovah witness combined.
It should occur to you that there are reasons why I'm not already sending you money. The reason is, I DON'T HAVE ANY TO SPARE. Simple as that, I don't have any to spare, I have no job, what money I do have goes towards lunch at the expensive cafeteria at the college and the occasional second hand book. If I ever get a spare fifty dollars I put that in SAVINGS, which will go towards college expenses. GOT THAT? You're trying to leech money off of my broke ass.
So get off my back about it, I never asked for the free sample, I never in any way indicated I could afford it normally. Stop bitching at me.
