She minces no words.

Dont Mince Words


Cerveza por favor

You ever wonder, with all this great technology out there, why our financial institutions can’t code our bank cards for our native language. They certainly have the direct mail function figured out.

I’m really tired of getting asked if I want instructions in Spanish or English. My last name is Bunger. My ancestors are from the Fatherland, not south of the border. That’s one more angry click-to-money.

If my ATM card can be reprogrammed, maybe Citi can fix everything at once: no mortgage offers, no educational loan offers, no financial planning offers, and English-only. Oh yeah, and can I just get to my fucking money as quickly as possible?
