CAN YOU CHECK WITH LARRY TO SEE IF MARKETING HAS ANY FEEDBACK?

LARRY IS A MORON.

OKAY, ASK SOMEONE ELSE IN THAT DEPARTMENT.

THEY'RE IDIOTS TOO.

ALL OF THEM?

YES, THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.

LARRY IS A MORON, AND LARRY WORKS IN MARKETING, SO THEREFORE, EVERYONE IN MARKETING IS A MORON.

DID YOU MAKE THE COLOSSAL MISTAKE OF WATCHING THE NEWS AND LEARNING THAT EACH PERSON IN A GROUP DEFINES THE ENTIRE GROUP?

YES, AND I HAVE TO SAY, IT WASN'T AN INTUITIVE IDEA.

BUT I TRUST SCIENCE, SO IT MUST BE TRUE.

YOU'RE RUINING THINGS FOR ALL HELMET-HAIRED WOMEN.
