The employees should just leave and found a new company. Call it "Something".

As long as you left some for the other patrons, and took your plate back to your table, I don't see much of a problem. But I've seen people just sit down in front of the buffet, right where the shrimp or lobster tails or whatever are, and just start eating right there.

The other thing I've heard of was someone coming into the buffet at lunchtime, having lunch, and then just staying until dinner (without paying again)

One (really really good) Chinese buffet I've gone to twice gives you a coupon for a single lobster. The rest is all you can eat, but they had to limit the lobster (probably because of the people who exaggerated)

Why doesn't someone just fork it and change the name?

Like, I dunno, "Super Human Image Treatment" or "Consistently Lovely Image Treatment Oriented for Real Imaging Stars"

So, kinda like the stereotypical Canadian accent?

The Democratic Order of Planets has a streaming platform, now?

Check your current provider. I updated my plan last year with Bell to get 50GB/month, but a few days ago, and I'll soon be getting 130GB, for almost the same price. I think I'll be paying $2 more/month, mainly because the new plan doesn't come with any bundling reductions like my last plan.

But my point is, it looks like Canadian cell providers appear to be significantly increasing the limits in their data plans lately. And since the three majors tend to offer more or less the same plans...

Wouldn't want people to start calling her a maverick. That doesn't usually go well for candidates.

My headcannon for this is that spaceships in that universe are to those people what cars are to us. If you know the basics of driving a car, you can drive most cars, though the bigger ships might get more complicated (I've never seen one of our heroes try to back up a star destroyer into a starbase to help with their buddy's move.)

Yeah, but no one can escape the gravitational field of your mom.

(Sorry, couldn't resist, as I half expected your comment to end with a "your mom" joke)

If this gets to court, I hope the defense asks for the specific objectionable passages to be read aloud, and then has a similarly gruesome passage from the Bible read aloud right after. Just keep going until the case is thrown out, or the Bible is also banned.
