one primary goal i intend to accomplish throughout the lifespan of this blog is the exposure of bullshit advertisements, claims and business practices for all to behold and react as they may. bullshit manifests itself in an infinite myriad of mediums and arrives in front of our eyes in a grand assortment of shapes, forms, sizes, times, locales and gradations.

those of you who know me know that im really fucking good at what i do; this time around im in the demolition business and my wrecking ball knows no boundaries.

i recently came across a website under the domain name fafsa.com during my nightly internet travels.

for those of you who have never used fafsa, it stands for "free application for federal student aid."

notice the word "free," didja?

the entire point of fafsa is to ease financial strain on college students by allowing them to apply for federal grants in order to pursue their education without falling into horrendous debt. the process is extraordinarily simple and takes a grand total of twenty minutes to complete.

fafsa.com charges their users eighty bucks in return for doing nothing. if you navigate the website, you will see that anyone who uses the service must fill out the entire fafsa form by themselves.

customers essentially pay fafsa.com $79.99 to forward an already completed form to the government. students who navigate to the actual government fafsa website can do the same thing at no cost.

thats the whole fucking point.

for legal reasons i cant copy and paste anything written on fafsa.com's moronic website; however, in homage to penn and teller's awesome showtime series, i will simply write that the assholes at fafsa.com are fucking bullshit-munching motherfuckers who take advantage of financially strapped individuals by making it seem as though the free application for federal student aid is instead a fee-based application for federal student aid.

please visit fafsa.com, skim through all the morbidly amusing nonsense and tell everyone you know that they suck syphilitic dick.
