5. My pet peeve

I live in a university town and it just frosts me to see outside the football stadium and basketball arena before games a booth for one of the credit card issuers offering free t-shirts for filling out a credit card app. Gah! Bad enough that the kids have the equivalent of a mortgage (to pay for their education) before they've done a day's work in their post-college career, they want to stick them with credit card debt too!
