That is a question of perspective. I think Einstein had some thoughts about that.

Manufactured it without a doubt. It was the male hygienist actually who was the husband of the dentist (who is a woman). Shoulda known a male hygienist couldn't be trusted.

Dentists be scammin'. As bad as mechanics for up-selling unnecessary work.

Missing out on one drop, but lucking out getting into something different (even when it costs more!)

Southwest Airlines sending me a $150 voucher for my delayed flight. The delay was weather related so they really didn't have to do anything. Didn't even have to complain (except on here). Big thumbs up to Southwest.

You should've run out on the tarmac screaming and positioned yourself for takeoff. Couple mil in it for you easy.

Dang it must be a good time to fly. Last year we got delayed midflight going into SF because of fog and the plane had to turn around. No free vouchers for that fiasco.

Bought a house at auction today.
It's a common practice in NZ for sellers to go the way of the gavel and a kind of weird culture has built up around it. The agents who handle 'em are like vampires. The agency today hires primarily tall ex-rugby players in blue suits and identical haircuts who speak like politicians telling you what they really meant after a stump speech "between you and me, mate..." . They also bring along well dressed/made up women in shawls who don't seem to be involved with the process except to wander through the audience to "help" you with your bids. It's drymountin' creepy.

Anyhow, had to bargain on the side with dudes after the reserve was not met on the floor. Stood ground like an Arab against a wave of smarm and now live by the beach. Gonna need a dehumidifier for that limited paper though...yo.
