...Only an idiot would spend $1,500 for a purse. I fail to see the appeal of these products. They are not attractive, practical or economical. The only selling point is that expensive designer bags are covered with the maker's logo.

...alone in your vehicle and any stranger could sneak up on you unsuspectingly. Perhaps it’s the fact that you can sit there through the whole film talking to your companion without anybody throwing popcorn or shushing you. You can even yell all you want at the idiot characters on screen as they stupidly “go through that door.” To be sure, you can do all that in the comfort of your own home, too, and at least then you wouldn’t have to put up with the tinny factory speakers...
