Gary Coleman frightens me

He has done a series of commercials for a lending company (one that charges an APR of up to 99.25% -- which is scary right there), and the little fella terrifies me. There is nothing cute or warm about him. He cackles about being broke and having no one to turn to. There is clearly something ... otherworldly about him. Perhaps evil. Where is Fox Muldaur when I need him? I know he would understand what I'm talking about!

    I've seen those commercials and I find them very sad. He made a huge amount of money as a child star but when he was old enough to spend it, there was none left. No wonder he needs to borrow money.

    I didn't notice the 99% APR but I did notice how the terms and conditons, in small print, are up on the screen for 3 microseconds, so no one has a chance of actually reading them.
