Yet very amusing to imagine.[1]
[1]: In a Monty Python or Douglas Adams way, natch.
- Someone 4y agoI imagined it in a dystopian way with zillions of cameras everywhere (how else would we know who ate that sandwich that you took with you when you went hiking with friends for a week?), but yours is better. Imagine John Cleese working in an office, tallying how much toilet paper every employee uses at work, so that they (the consumers) can be taxed for it, and not their employer (who merely bought it)
