Where I’m from (France) this is how you pay deposits for rentals.

We also have “bank cheques” for big expenses like houses.

Paying with cheques in regular shops is getting rarer, often requires providing two ID, and gets you weird looks. Debit cards have mostly replaced that usage.

We don’t really have credit cards afaik.

Which is why being Trump’s foe ain’t a bad thing.

Exactly.

Trudeau kinda is one of Trump’s foes though, isn’t he?

I want to read this post in a more positive light.

This is how the whole interaction is supposed to happen with no innuendos or anything implied: ask for cat, get cat.

But it might not be what OOP intended.

Gee I wonder why.

Pretty much every damn thing is political.

“it’s just politics” is such an empty statement.
