"one coupon per customer per visit"
bet she ignores that

Correctly? Someone should inform the British that the American accent is closer to early modern English than the British one :P

Interesting, but apparently these aliens have very lopsided reasoning, as they are able to travel vast intergalactic distances, yet base their entire judgement of the planet on a single encounter.

Destroy, create jobs, whatever. Isn't it true that in a free market, changing the way business is done will always result in refactoring of work positions? If old ways of doing things aren't supplanted by better, more efficient ways simply because of "jobs destruction," then we'd still have horse drawn buggies and buggy whips. It's rather absurd to think that anyone owes those peoples those jobs, or that people working in the shipping industry are completely incapable of finding new work.

Yeah, but what do you do about mosquitos?

lame
patronizing people is the opposite of treating them with respect

Yeah, that's a cool star wars pie sink.

Erm, if you don't want anyone collecting your computer data, DON'T BROADCAST IT! If you're going to use technology, it's up to you to be informed on how it works.

I think she was just being a dork. English is not a fixed language, nor is any other, for that matter. There's no such thing as "correct" language because anyone is free to make up words and lingo and if you don't like it don't talk to them.

This is bullshit. It's like saying there's no way you can improve the world so you might as well stop trying.

Actually, they're not supposed to tear up tickets. That was a way of covering their tracks. They're supposed to turn in all tickets written, and he would have had to bring it to court. It's convenient when you're getting a ticket for them to say "once we start writing one, we're not supposed to stop."

Wait, paying girls to *not* have sex? I don't get it. Also, I like the way they refer to prostitution as "transactional sex." I'm going to cop that.

It's a telegraph switchboard.

Haha, Superfly. In the first, he looks happy, and in the second, satisfied. Can someone reasonably explain to me what the emotion of the people in the background has to do with #2? If it's the theory of mind we're talking about, wherein a person thinks about what another person might be thinking or feeling, then you should also consider that #2 may not have seen the faces of the people behind him, or that he has no idea they're even there. Given that, a whole range of emotions is possible and the conclusion you draw, if not simple and general, must be drawn from personal experience.
