#5 Would you like any fillings or gold caps on that" (pg. 237)

"The modern day drive-thru doesn't get the appreciation it deserves. It's there to keep us from having to get out of our cars and walk the twenty yards to the counter of our favorite fast food joint. It even lets us bank from our SUVs.

The drive-thru is almost perfect for any application. Almost.

Your task is to list ten things that shouldn't have a drive-thru. Some things are just better left to the ambulatory masses."


AIMEE:
Ok, let's see here ... 10 things that shouldn't have a drive-thru ... hummm.

1) Definitely no hair on the go ... I enjoy the "salon experience."
2) Pedi nor mani ... once again, I enjoy the "spa experience" and nail polish stains
3) Ok, I know there are car wash drive thrus ... but there shouldn't be ... they're a waste of water, energy and money.
4) Drive thru cafes/coffee houses ... I know they exist ... but do you need a bigger sign that our society is crumbling?
5) Drive-thru therapy
6) Drive-thru keiki day care (although some parents may disagree)
7) Drive-thru driving test
8) Drive-thru brothel
9) Drive-thru bars
10) Drive-thru urinals - "Tough & Go" (euuuwwe ...)

    Ha ha! Awesome ideas, everyone! I totally flaked. I got to two ideas and never got further. FWIW, my two were 1) (this one actually DOES exist) drive thru liquor store (swear to God, they have 'em in Ohio; saw 'em when I went to school there) and 2) (same as Aimee!) drive thru salon.

    Hey Aims, I just read an article (I think on Salon.com) about how drive thru car washes are actually BETTER for the environment than doing it yourself! B/C they are more efficient w/ the water and b/c they're required to have drainage that properly filters the soap products, etc. When you wash at home, most people leave hoses running, etc. and the waste water (soap, oil, etc.) goes into the storm drains and straight into the ocean. Whodathunk?!
