Banking
A nice feature of Washington Mutual’s online banking is how it will scan in deposited checks just to jog your memory of, “Oh yeah, that’s what that check was for.”
Of course, what’s even better is seeing what I put in the “for” field for the checks I write to my parents as part of my living expenses:
I’m waiting for the day when the Feds call me up about this.
Fed: Sir, we’re calling about this check you wrote for…hookers.
Me: Yeah?
Fed: Well, you wrote a check for…hookers?
Me: Her credit card machine was broken.
Fed: *Long pause* Oh.
Me: Yeah.
Chatting
Another nice, although seemingly worthless feature (to me at least) is Gmail chat’s ability to go “off the record” and not keep a log of a current chat conversation. This is the only real use of it I’ve found:
aadarab: i think its near mathematically impossible for me to fail out, but i don’t want to take property again
aadarab: that shit sucked
me: time for us to rob a bank
me: oh wait
You are now off the record
me: time for us to rob a bank
aadarab: hahahahaha
me: I love that feature
Mr. Bayati is convinced that going off the record actually forwards the conversation directly to the CIA.
