there is a way to actually seriously do that. I mean, legitimately a way to do it. Just not legitimately honest, appropriate, or responsibly. I have never tried it, but I have seen it. I'd imagine that would be a good way to make some people never want to see you again. Not sure if the bank actually sought retribution or not.
