Free Credit Report Guy - What a shitbag!
« on: June 12, 2009, 09:46:56 AM »
Not only do would you rather have a house in suburbia than be married to your wife, you would have enrolled in TripleAdvantage in order to get *your fiance's credit report* just so you could find out about all of her credit card defaults before saying "I do".  Is that even legal?  Why don't you look in the mirror, get a haircut and a grown-up job, ditch the freeloading longhairs, and take some responsibility for providing for your family instead of blaming your basement apartment on someone else?

Cherubim is plural; Genesis 3:24 specifies one flaming sword. Presumably flaming swords were in short supply."

I think I speak for the majority of non-american/Canadian citizens when I say...What now?

At least I think I do, but maybe I don't.  :|

I agree. The Free Credit Report Guy is an asshole.

It's also false advertising.  Your credit score is always your own, and past black marks on someone else's history can only affect you if you're applying for joint credit.

In other words, if you marry someone with bad credit, that person's bad credit can't bring yours down.  It can, however, prevent you from getting good joint credit (such as for a mortgage.)

So, if that dooshbag (yes I know) had  a better job and was able to qualify for credit without her and without her income listed, then they'd be just fine.

dooshbag.  lol.

Bitching about her credit the whole time; yet she's the only one doing anything close to responsible.

This commercial is seven kinds of messed up. I like the camera close up on the girls' ass. Classy!

It is a nice ass though. Why can't he just be happy, having landed such a beauty? F**k credit. She's worth it :)
