				| Heard that this is a done deal even though they were trying to negotiate. Think I'll be sleeping in and prentending I never read this, which no one is likely to notice or care about anyway. The only thing I like about the subway is that little Asian melody they play sometimes, duuuh, dut dut dut dut duh duh duh duh duh... duh duh, duh dutta dutta. Love that shit. It seems like commuting in general is going to be a nightmare tomorrow. |

Give them a location miles away, and then say, "oh, stop here!" when you're near the location you actually want to go to. |

When they do that, just look at the dash where their ID is and start to read out the number and pretend to write it down, they'll start driving right away. |
