From Pratically Efficient:
I’ve started appreciating traditional business-customer relationships more than ever. I enjoy paying for things because it’s an explicit business transaction. There’s nothing phony about it.
Recently I’ve noticed (and gladly joined in) a fetishization of the “traditional business-customer relationship” and all that goes along with it — being able to call someone out for selling you shitty stuff, getting your money back, or feeling good about a “clean and open” transaction.
This post helped me understand why it’s so appealing. Those articles that show you how, for Google and Facebook, “you’re the product, not the user,” make me uneasy in the same way a trip to the farmer’s market or the tailor or the artisanal bike repairman makes me feel all is well, even though neither are anywhere near that simple.

Of course Chris [Farley] could have done it without the character — he could have just done the moves and it would have been funny. But the fact that there was a human being described there, who obviously had a terrible self-image and this gung-ho energy, and was using his terrible self-image to power his philosophy — even the broadest characters I’ve written have a motivation."
