Joey Harvey spent $214.28 at Bobbie's Happy Adult Toy Store.
The following items were purchased: 2 dildos (one black, one peach), handcuffs, and a leather mask.
Poor Harvey forgot that that card was his Blippy card! Aw.. And now his home address will be bombarded by countless sex toy offers.

This isn't about kids, this is about the 20 to 30 year olds who think people give a shit about what the f*** they're buying, and then putting information about themself on a freaking platter for anyone on the internet to see.

I'm afraid I must disagree. This will be ALL about kids doing that. And quite soon, I predict.

Because teenagers DON'T think people give a shit what the f*** they're buying and they're NOT completely oblivious to the dangers of putting information about themselves on a freaking platter for anyone on the internet to see?
Myspace/Facebook says...WRONG.

I don't know what things are like over there, but here in Canada, kids generally don't HAVE credit cards...

I know two, maybe 3 people that are 18 and 19 that actually have a credit card. A VAST majority of highschool students do NOT have credit cards. So, this stupid little "blippy" thing won't take off in high schools. Unlike facebook where you and all your friends will have it, it will instead be you and two other people in your school have it. And that's no fun, so less people will sign up for it because of that. I can see it taking off more in the college level, with the 20-30 somethings, however (maybe, the whole concept is pretty dumb).

If you want it to happen, just ask the Queen to mandate it.
