But, I still use the occasional check and I do NOT want them to disappear.

Well done!

I have to catch up! I pay most of my bills on line, but still pay rent and a few other things via check. I have never used Venmo or any of those other apps yet.

But I get the impression I'm in the minority - this effective sketch could bring them back!

The idea that everyone has to wait for the money and banks have to work to process it for a fee. 20 bucks for a years worth of checks, and supporting post office workers cause I use stamps. All good for me.

I don't remember who, maybe trumpft? Or was it smollett?

Anyhow, great sketch, checks really are more dramatic! How did I not see that before? Can not wait to tear a check from my checkbook with a flourish.
