He was trying everything to guilt me into extending it, but dude appeared to never have bothered to pay his bill on time. His payment history did not do him any favors. It also didn't do him any favors that when he called and claimed he had nothing to pay, he was ordering fast food. I know that's not expensive, and I know people have to eat, but don't call people claiming you have zero dollars while you're spending money. That should be common sense. Anyway, dude finally tried to manipulate me into extending his arrangement. He was all, "You keep saying you can't, but you can; there is a way, but you're brainwashed into following their rules. You're a sheep. Be a free thinker. You know how to do it," and all of this garbage. At this point, I was just tired of his crap, and knew exactly what he was trying to do, so I advised him, kindly, that I really could not, blah blah blah, then he was all, "You're a sheep! When I was a teacher, I taught my students to be free thinkers! Be a free thinker! Push the button!" and I then, in my most emotionless and robotic voice, as though I was reading off a script, recited his existing payment arrangement. Dude hung up on me.
