Vooduguru (VooDoo Guru)
A mythical beast from the east. Labeled as Right winged by those who don't know Vooduguru very well but known as more of a moderate by those who are closer. A rather stubborn individual who will argue a point to the death and is always willing to make any attempt to convert those to his viewpoint with whomever he comes into contact with.

A financial institution designed to nickel and dime its members to no end. Banks complain about Credit Unions (CU) because they are "not for profit" and subsequently do not have to pay taxes. However despite the competitive nature of banks and credit unions, banks have not suffered any loss in profit. On the contrary, banks have enjoyed record breaking profits increasingly each year. Banks will always be finding new ways to take your money to increase their profits so all the bitching about credit unions because they don't have as many fees is just whiney suck ass for them.
Examples of Bank Fees:
Application fee
Activation fee
Teller fee
Drive up fee
Balance Inquiry fee
Balance transfer fee
Account opening fee
