Here's my list so far. I'm running out tho'.

1. Pete's sake
2. the love of Mike
3. Chrissake
4. external use only
(Note: 1-4 are phrased that way because the memo line starts with 'For...')
5. Church of Satan
6. Gonna git me a pony
7. Trombone lessons and blow
8. Precious Moments Baby Satan figurine
9. Fast women & slow dancin'
10. Singles cruise to Iran
11. Bail
12. Bulk Fibercon
13. Lawrence Welk LPs
14. Golden Girls memorabilia
15. Weaves R Us
16. Christian Rap CDs
17. Braille Porn

With all that, the only one I got feedback on (via the audio hookup at the drive-through) was #6, the damn pony!! I told her I wanted a big white pony and a saddle with silver bangles.
#12 is an homage to Seinfeld, the episode where George plays 'bad boy'
 
I almost replied: Check writing is still a thing? I cannot recall the last time I wrote one (do them digitally now via the bank) ... But I'll play along.

For ...

the rest:

apocalypse toilet paper
python food

Benny Hill VHS tapes

On order forms, where it asks for my address, if there's a spot for "Company," i always put "Kitty Keeps Me." I've gotten direct mail promising to supply 'All The Kitty Company's paperwork needs.'
 
We don't use cheques where I live, for the same reason that we don't buy Zeppelin tickets, send telegrams, or holiday in the Ottoman Empire, Siam, or East Germany.

ie it's the twenty first century here.
 
I am an architect, in a firm of over 100 persons. File naming is key to finding anything. Often, when as a manager, have to go into the files to find a particular file that the younger staff or even the older staff have created, I want to tear my hair out as even if the staff are following the file naming conventions, there are literally tens if not hundreds of similarly named files - anyone of which could be the one that I need. Periodically I call an all-hands meeting for my teams and explain "I get that you can find your files (in this mess). I can't. When a client calls and needs that one particular file 'you know, the diagram presented to the city for the garage variance request' it would be great for me, and for you too, because if you comply with this request, I won't have to come to you and ask you stop what you are doing just to help me find that one diagram so that I can send it to the client . . . so, team, folders are cheap, they don't cost anything to create, create them, use them so I can find stuff, "but we don't have a folder naming structure" they say and I reply "be creative, you're designers, figure it out".

Some of the folders that my staff have created that I later found:

2018\18393.PHR\00GN\3COR\3I TGP\Files Dave has asked for

Folder for DAVE

Files resent to client

Dont know what this is for

generic folder
 
I've written two checks in the last, I don't know, 5-7 years. One was for a fine that I could pay online for an additional fee or send a check for no fee. The other was a grocery store visit while waiting for a debit replacement card to come in the mail.

But I have signed credit card slips with Oprah, Jeff Bezos, Your Worst Nightmare, Someone Else, Leafy McLeaf, and others I can't think of right now. Nobody fucking looks at those signatures.

Dammit, I wish I had thought of that. If I ever have to write a check again, that's going on the For line.

Speaking of filing systems: On the LPD I was stationed on, we had five very large ammo magazines and a Gunnersmate who was the Ammo Admin guy, who accounted for it all. Sitting at his desk one day, I glanced over at his filing cabinet, at the small card in the framed slot. It read: "Papers".

Then look at the recipient and say I dare you to cash it.
