Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

And we have the craftiest secret handshake in this club.

Don't TELL them!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I guess I know why my mailers aren't that apt.

Yeah, but the marketers still have a profile on you and when you shop at Safeways it'll pimp little discounts to you based on your preferences. And if you were a coupon type of person you'd want the Huggies coupons coming to your house when you bought Pampers etc.

That was one of the things I liked about the Minority Report , when the scanners read your retinas and flashed ads at you based on your buying habits. That seemed to be a good future call.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The handshake is with the left hand, double pump, slap palm, slap back of hand, bump elbows and wink.

Or ... is it?

Those don't even make it to my car. In three years, I've never redeemed one, even if it's for something I buy (which rarely happens) -- I just never want to take the paper home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't care about the marketers tracking me, really. Is that so wrong?

Crap. I always forget the elbows part. That must be why everyone thinks I'm so truthful and trustworthy.

Oh, we are being serious.

The day is coming soon when a swipe of a credit card will reveal your Mother's maiden name.

This will somehow be progress.

Yes. When the revolution against scoopable cat litter comes, you'll be first against the wall.

We've just had this conversation recently, but the mother's maiden name thing is a huge pet peeve of mine. It's the worst security question EVAR in this day and age.

Especially when you're not sure how to spell it.
