Makes me think I could intentionally ask for 1 or 2 stupid things, and see if the supplier tells me about it?
- ido 6y agoSounds like a variation of that rock band asking for a bowl of only brown m&m from the venue - at risk of voiding the contract if not provided - in the middle of their safety requirements document (if they didn't give them brown m&ms they know they didn't read the document throughout).
- HappyDreamer 6y agoYes! That rock band came to my mind, having read about them here at HN. But I couldn't remember the name (Van Halen, see below) or "brown m&m". Now, because of your reply, I found this old HN post: "Why Van Halen's tour contract had a "no brown M&M's" clause" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7754334 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7754334
