Sometimes when I feel really stressed and need to let out some frustration, I’ll just yell, “You don’t own that plane, the taxpayers do!”
When we flew American Airlines to California I was surprised they gave away free headphones or ear-buds or whatever you call them now. They all had an Avis logo on them, so I guess they were given on behalf of the car rental company for marketing purposes.
For you ‘Better Call Saul’ and ‘Breaking Bad’ fans who like the actor who portrays Mike Ehrmantraut, here’s a clip of him in the movie Armed and Dangerous interacting with John Candy and Eugene Levy.
Generally, clients pay a fee of less than $100 for an at-home teeth impression mold kit or, when available, go to a brick-and-mortar store to take a computerized 3D scan of their mouths. A dental team consisting of dentists, orthodontists, and/or “dental technicians” (depending on the brand you choose) comes up with the treatment plan and an image of what your mouth might look like after treatment. Then a box of “invisible” clear plastic aligners is mailed. Most of the companies even offer teeth whitening services thrown in. In general, all the services cost about $2,000 depending on the payment plan you choose, which is still several thousand dollars cheaper than going to a traditional orthodontist’s office.
Read something many years back where the trend to a majority of individual home ownership among our citizenry came with the GI Bill and Veterans Financing following WW2.

Your frustration relieving line from Top Gun would be even better if you continued with, “Son, your ego is writing checks your body can’t cash!”
Lie Detector was a riot. “You’re yelling at a machine!” That gal was sassy, but she needs to change the ink cartridge.
I would have laughed more if the facilitator had addressed them as “Moonlight, La La Land” at the beginning.
Bryan wins the Internet today.
Also, the line “Yeah, you just can’t use chickens” killed me.
