Get the defenestrate mug.O.K., this is the REAL Proud Conservative. Not his groupie.
The Story of the twinkie defense is thus:
In 1978, Dan White, a former San Francisco city supervisor who had recently resigned his position, entered San Francisco City Hall through a basement window, went upstairs, and shot and killed Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk.
Psychiatrist Martin Blinder testified in court that White had been depressed, which led to eating junk food: Twinkies and Coca-Cola. This further deepened White's depression, since he was an ex-athlete and knew that the food was not good for him. This was evidence of his depression that prompted his murder spree. This celebrated diagnosis became known as the "Twinkie defense."

Get the defenestrate mug.The act of constantly saying "no" or "no, thank you" or "I don't need that" to sales people who persistently try to up-sell you additional services or add-ons during a point of sale or negotiation of service(s).
So after 10 mins of playing up-sell defense I am totally exhausted. Mind you, I just want a car wash. If I wanted to get up sold and haggled out, I would have gone to the swap meet for some churros and butterfly knifes. How many times to I have to say no, I don't want that super wax?
