There's a site that shows how many people have found success using a certain coupon code. But yes, the presence of the box does indicate that you could be getting the same damn thing cheaper than they're offering it to you, and almost nothing burns more.

]]> Comment on Aggressive by DC http://trainthoughts.com/82/aggressive/#comment-141 DC Mon, 16 Jun 2008 22:12:01 +0000 http://trainthoughts.com/82/aggressive/#comment-141 To me, it completely depends on context. Aggressive as a personal characteristic seems negative; assertive always seems like the personality type that aims to get the same thing without necessarily putting other people on the defensive. But "aggressive sales targets", for instance, is a positive use of the word. Agreed that overly will "negativize" any word. To me, it completely depends on context.

Indifference to everything is probably a good way to ensure happiness...at the expense of ever having accomplished anything. I guess it depends on whether you're after a life of happiness or one of purpose. Selective indifference to distractions (i.e. focus) is constructive.
