Let’s talk about “paying bills”. They don’t actually need you to pay those either. It’s just to hamster wheel you. That’s why they make every bit of paying them a huge pain in the balls.
You get a bill in the mail, you forget. You get another one. It’s red and threatening. You call the line and immediately get put into a hold queue. They will say “due to the unusually high call volume you can go fuck your own asshole” which isn’t true, it’s the same call volume. You have to “verify” your account to some cunt, your name, address, “account id number” etc. then you have to hear a spiel, then you get to tell her the cc number, and after she fucks it up two or three times and 45 minutes later whew! You paid your electric bill. You’re a responsible bill payer. The bippity tokens you paid them isn’t why they made you do it. It’s the process. It’s designed to enrage you, and fuck you over. (((They))) don’t give a FUCK. This is how it is in bippity bop hell.
