With kids they call it peer pressure, but for adults I think it's called 'culture' or something like that. People do all sorts of crazy **** because that's what the people around them are doing. Raping your sister or fearing an unseen creator or renting furniture seem perfectly normal if that's everyone else is doing.

I had a dumb friend that rented a bunch of furniture from Rent-A-Center. Then her boyfriend pawned all of it for drug money. It's basically a long term high interest drug loan, brilliant!

Honestly, I can't even fault these places for charging ridiculous interest rates. It surprises me that they can have any expectation of making collection beyond 2-3 months.

all the dude had to do was go back to the pawn shop and claim it was stolen property and get it all back.

... Then they'd get the furniture back, and get to keep the drugs.

BRILLIANT!

I thought we'd already established that she had rented a bunch of furniture from Rent-A-Center.
