    In plain English:

    I have this theory on how to get free stuff that will not work. But I like to laugh at you dumb inbreds, so please go ahead and try it. Just don’t complain to me when your stupidity catches up with you and bites you in the ass.

      I don’t buy it. If you were trolling, wouldn’t you want them to whine and complain to you that the account manager rejected their addendum to the purchase agreement?

        True. But at the other hand, why not try this magical method yourself if you’re convinced it works? Makes it feel like they very well know this at least has a very real chance of backfiring.

    Fun real fact: You can strike elements from any contract you sign if you draw a line through the text and initial it. Half the time the account person catches it and rejects it, but sometimes they don’t and you can have some fun. If they took it to court a lawyer could easily argue that both parties would need to have initialed the change, but it’s a lot of trouble if you haven’t done something insane like struck the interest section of a purchase agreement on credit.

    I once did it on an employment contract and struck the section that stipulated availability outside of normal working hours. Just don’t expect it to go well once you flex your power.
