The best thing to get at subway is the Subway Melt. Subway isn't very good but a subway melt is at least passable if you have to go there.

I would like to point something out:

I liked Wall-E. Great movie.

Here is where it all fell apart: No motherfucker would stay on those ships or even on earth the moment there was warp-drive. The Profit-motive of a capatalistic economy would take over. The ship hyper-drives back to earth from the other side of the goddamn galaxy in like, half a minute.

If earth figured that poo poo out, you better believe that we would be sticking our cock into every planet galaxy wide for nothing other than the sheer satisfaction of it.

I liked what they tried to do, but a ship slow-boating to earth, full of corpses arriving at a dead planet would have been a better ending. Skeletons piled against the exit doors with small scratches in the advanced armor plating.

The last skeletons alive (the ones with the densest bones) scratched out "we lived".

Wall-E sits there, broken, waiting for spare parts. Eve waiting, impatiently, as the ship approaches earth for a half-millennia. She exits the corpse-mess only to find the dead world, with her dead friends.

I think that would have been a better ending.

They'd be happier as skeletons. Everyone likes being a skeleton. Once you get over the spook

A capitalist market rewards companies to deal with the environmental problems because the citizens will demand it. As we see today, the green movement is rewarding companies with higher profit margins for providing environmentally sound products.

While I think that movie was preachy (but cute), this post is the funniest thing

Companies: Oh we'll be subsidized and get a ton of marketing and some goodwill on our sheets for being 'green'? Ok, we'll pretend to be green and pay off some officials. The system twerks
