An "aide" would imply another person (as in "aide-de-camp"), but this strikes me as a simple printed board. I smell rant. |

A similar technique was recently used by the Thai Prime Minister. I don't know if it made international news.
In his case, I think it was a cross. He held it up everytime reporters asked a question that he thought inappropriate. |

Look them straight in the eyes. That's a sure way to be victorious. If you don't "win", you may find you have established a meaningfull connection to another human being. |

You shouldn't feel as if you dont have control over the conversation when you have the money. Oh yeah.. thats right- The salesman can be very convincing and you dont want to upset him or hurt his feelings so you ended up driving away with a car that you dont like in a financing arrangement that you can barely afford. And you drive down the road MAD and thinking to yourself, "NEXT TIME its going to be different!" Ahhh.. my very own CPNA! |

The physical violence might at least intimidate him into making a better deal - the yes/no sign will just piss him off and you'll never get a good price. |

This is good. I will keep one on hand for the next time I am hung over and being asked lots of chirpy questions. |
