If it’s a strip club I think you’d be better calling it Accounts Payable

Nobody wants this. I'm serious. Nobody wants this.
This is a borderline War Crime. I think it might be against the Geneva Convention.

"Appreciating Assets" -- Now that's a great name for an accountants' strip club.

True, plus it’s really cool that if anyone ever wants to make a joke or try to inject a little humour into things, they know the bar has been set and religiously maintained at a painfully low level.
Really, Locke’s doing every aspiring funny guy a service.

Most places don't take diners club anymore. And no, 3% is not a "Very generous tip." Even if back in your day you were happy to get a bumblebee. Gimme 5 bumblebess for a quarter you'd say.

Testing out new material in client meetings is risky. Better to test out all the crap here with you goofs and see what lands. Then you rock the good stuff when it counts.

That reminds me of Norm Macdonald hosting the Canadian Screen Awards (sorry in advance Locke  ). "You know we were worried people would record the show and fast forward to the good parts. So we have put a plan in place to prevent that from happening. We've decided to not have any good parts".

Why are there so many cars driving without headlights at night? I was out for an hour this evening and spotted at least 5-6 cars on my route.
Of course these are the cars going like 20k under the limit too.
What the flying ####. Maybe you'd be less scared to go the limit if you could ####ing see you ####ing dimwits.

I am kind of assuming most of them don’t know how their car works. Just leave their headlights set to whatever it was when they bought the car.

~5% is way way too low.

I play Bingo.
- Stopped at fully green light while on phone.
- Lane change without signal.
- Have to go "most favorite way!" and are now jack-knifed perpendicular to traffic blocking everyone.
- Drifting across multiple lanes at highway speed.
- No headlights at night.
- Fully obscured back window.
- Road ragers speed weaving.
- Gassed up non-diesel vehicle with diesel and just trying to "drive it off" with massive smoke screen.

Yesterday I watched a guy pull out of a parking space and do a U turn in the middle of 10 st by Ridley's.
After that, I got the parallel parking equivalent of people not letting you off the elevator rushing in. Dude saw me walk up to my car(he was behind me in the loading zone), pulled out, went past me and pulled 3/4 across the empty spot, and attempted to park, poorly. I was now stuck, he was stuck, and he had no idea what to do. Eventually he pulled forward and bailed. If he had waited 10 more seconds I would have gotten out of the way, and there was no traffic coming at the time.

You missed thinking that turning hazard lights on means they can stop/park wherever they want and block traffic.
