Holy hell.

I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time.

This causes absolute giddiness to an Econ major. Suppose we live in a world where you have two suppliers of a service, one charges nothing, the other $2. What do you have?

A f’n hilarious video.

God love the genius behind it.

After reading your post it got me thinking… This is a lot like Windows Explorer and Netscape Navigator years ago. Explorer was free and Navigator was like $20(or more). I think it was one of the things that led to those monopoly lawsuits against Microsoft. I wonder if this guy could get away with suing the hippie…. ROFL

This is hillarious! It reminds me of that feminist rally where some guy was holding up the sign that said “Iron My Shirt”.

Are Hugs the Elusive “Giffen Good”?…

Perhaps (despite the strong possibility that this is staged).

Of course, previous empirical work in the area of hugs as Giffen goods was conducted at Dunder Mifflin, where Phyllis’ went for a cool $1,000 at auction.

Either way, anything that tea…

Vote for best line: What do I get for, say, a 20?
Second best: We’ll have to go to my car for that.

Third best: Is your car far away?

High-larious!

LOL! Amazing. I saw one of these hippies here in Chicago. Free hugs sound creepy. And I’m sure they DO feel cheap!
