      Yeah! The $2 socks I bought are incredibly thin, don’t keep my feet warm, and I wore holes in them quickly! The pair I paid $10 for are much thicker and have lasted more than 5x longer. This is clear evidence that I need a $175,000 new car.

        You would make a great C-suite executive.

          I’ve instructed my lawyers to sue you for defaming me like this.

            DW a truly great exec would think wbat you need is a $40,000 car that only lasts 1 year.

                A broke one, I’m basically giving these cars away*.

                  No wonder it’s so cheap, it all makes sense now.

            I await you in discovery. You may have a team of fancy corporate lawyers on your side but I’ve seen The Rainmaker. Both the movie and the tv show!

              Unfortunately, my lawyers have informed me that as the chairperson of the board of Lockheed Martin, my chances of winning this lawsuit are very slim and I would be better off ordering a mob hit.

                Clearly someone graduated from the Boeing school of executive management.

          Walking inside is boring, though.
