irresponsible

one time i rented a videogame from a hollywood video, and i never returned it, then i moved and closed my account, and i still haven't returned it, and i accidently moved it with me, and i just remembered it this morning, and i'm betting any day now i get a bill from a collection service for it. which is dumb because it's not necessarily a video game that i want.
i wonder what would happen if i returned it now? how long do they allow you to waive late fees if you never rent from the same place twice? i'm sure those things catch up with you eventually, but i just wonder how long it takes...
or how much my bill is (i'm guessing it's a big one).
ugh. i'm so irresponsible. i have video game debt. if i'm going to have debt it might as well be for something good, like a house or a car or medical coverage, not for video games that i am just too stupid and lazy to return.
(this is proof that despite what you may think, i really am only eighteen years old. or maybe twelve. who knows)

Or, it's proof you're over 30.

I'll give you a dollar if you return it wearing a trenchcoat and groucho-glasses.

I'm good for it, just wait until after payday (the 20th)... Let me know.

P.S. To note, it was implied, of course, that since you are a film student, you will obviously capture this on "film" or no deal. No dollar. Khattam Shud! (<-- Rushdie reference)

A whole dollar? That will pay off at least 1% of my late fees...
You're on, Lindgren!!

Well a friend of mine got a nasty from hollywood she hooted and holared that it was returned so they didn't charge her but she found it later....

Ciara,

You're not thinking about the BIG "picture" here.

Your groucho movie will be seen on YouTUBE by thousands; subsequently your gifts as an actor and delinquint director will lead to your first major motion picture signing, and the aforementioned late fee will, in fact, become a blessing in disguise after you make your first baJillion-dollar moving-picture-film!

To be continued....
