I woke up with a raging groupon this morn - inbox filled with so many exciting deals, what to do?? apple mini speakers? anti-stress facial? love massage neck pillow? ooh the flotation pool treatment looks good, but then so does a Indian head neck & shoulder, or a photoshoot I could justify, somehow.

the traumatic stress you feel between the moment you post something on the Internet and the moment somebody likes it or responds

a fee that restaurants with unused tables could charge for people who want to bring their own food, as long as they order drinks
Hostess: Table for 2?
Diner: Well actually we were just on our way home to eat our take-aways and we saw all these empty tables outside your pub, so we were wondering if you'd let us sit outside. You're welcome to charge us a 'forkage' and we'll order 2 beers...
Hostess: so you'd like to have a picnic at our restaurant. Is that correct?
Diner: kind of yes! But if you're concerned about the take-away boxes, you could serve us the food on your own plates - we promise to tip the waiter! Why don't you suggest the concept to your boss, as a way to fill unused tables?
