I look at it this way: the harder they make it for me to purchase their product, the more money I save.
I wouldn't mind this kind of thing so much except the number of people who are trying to get away with it are like 14-18 years old and that's not a huge percentage of society. And the number people who want to buy things who are old enough are like 19-99 and there are a fuckton more of those people who are just continually annoyed by this BS. It's ridiculous that the vast majority of the population has to be inconvenienced because of a very small few.
