stuff that checkCard firmly up your ass, thank you.

for whatever reason (I supect co-marketing and kickbacks) banks send out "Visa CheckCard"s or "Gold MasterMoney" cards instead of regular ATM cards. 

this is  a bad thing. as in This is a giant fucking security risk. so if someone gets your card info, they can use it like a regular credit card, but you don't get any of the protections of a regular credit card. Instead, your account immediately getd debited. It is then up to you to (a) cover the disputed amount, and (b) sufficiently dispute the amount. 

Wifeykins is currently experiencing this discomfort with Smells Margo (okay. Wells Fargo. if someone wants to google for Wells Fargo, they deserve the chance to see my rant on the 500th page of google results.)
