What's on your mind?

I am starting to hate Credit Cards. Seriously!
Or, to be more specific: Webpages that will allow you to buy stuff ONLY with a Credit Card.
I hate that!
I don't have one, I don't know ANYONE who has one, so I'm screwed every time I find out that you need one of them.
Sometimes these pages have a "Chose your Payment method" category, but there is only one *insertcursehere* option! What's the point of that? Why would you give me a choice if I actually don't have a choice at all?! Just say so and don't fool me into thinking that I have a choice on the matter so that I don't need to spend my time filling out formulars only to find out that it was a waste of time later!
Or here is an even better Idea: actually give the customer a choise in that matter!
I don't ask for like a million diffrent ways, but just two would be enough. You have a choice there, if you can't take either one...well, that's to bad but at least you have a choice and therefor a better chance of getting something done. If there is just one single way (like, I don't know, a Credit Card) and you don't get that, you're screwed. It's like "Sorry, but we don't care about you folks, now f* off."
I seem to run into that a lot lately, especially with Fan merchandise that you can get only on 'that' website. And 'that' website usually only takes Credit Cards.
Example: I see a DVD I really want to have, but I cant get it: Credit Card. Next time, diffrent page: Great fan T-Shirt! I'd love to buy it so to show of that I'm a fan and support the Guy with money and advertising (on the T-Shirt) ...but i can't, since it's only a Credit Card again. Then: great game, been looking for that for ages! And it actually gives me a choice between Paypal and Credit Cards! I can actually get it this time but -OH NO!- the Paypal function doesn't work at all, gotta use the Credit Card. Again!
WTF?!
I hate this!
Why Credit Cards of all things?! Why not have more options so that more people could buy your stuff? Why pretending to have options when there are none? It's just...!
Grngrgraaaaah!!
...Sorry for the rant, I just need to get rid of that frustration somehow <<

If it's funny, make sure people laugh. If it's not funny, make it funny (unless it's actually really serious). (silvercheers)
Please don't spell my name "Yamina-chan". It's all small. Thank you =D
