What Aisle Do You Want to Go to Today?

Imaginary Seattleite #1: So where do you work?

Imaginary Seattleite #2: Microsoft. Something cool I was working on just launched.

IS #1: You worked on Vista? Sweet.

IS #2: No, actually it was...

IS #1: Wait, wait, let me guess. You worked on the Zune? That's totally badass. That got such a bad rap.

IS #2: Nope. Really, you'll never...

IS #1: No, no, I'm good at this. Um...are you in the Mac division? Did you just announce something at Macworld?

IS #2: No! No, I worked on the MediaCart. [no response] It's gonna revolutionize the grocery store.

IS #1: A shopping cart?

IS #2: Seriously, it's cool. After you fill it up, it scans all your stuff and pays for it automatically.

IS #1: Does it turn blue when it crashes?

IS #2: Ha ha. No, I ironed out the video ad delivery. When you put some Campbell's in the cart, say, it'll play a short commercial for Progresso and let you know it's on sale.

IS #1: That's fascinating. So ... what do you think the Cloverfield monster's gonna look like?
