Had this idea at In-N-Out Burger today for a restaurant that would offer a dining temperature that's freezing cold (well, not The Thing freezing cold, but to a degree where patrons would feel great coming in from this heat—and get uncomfortable if they stuck around too long), and feature chilled food like sushi and cold noodles… come to think of it, maybe it'd be neater to make it soup instead. No, frozen daiquiris and 冷やし中華 are the way to go. The place'd be insulated like a sea lion and kept environmentally friendly and cost-effective by huge blocks of ice. In the winter, the Cooler would become Fireplace, check your coats and serve it up hot & spicy. Management assumes no responsibility for colds caught upon exit.

Then I thought a bit about the Ship of Theseus paradox. If human cell replication is a humongous ongoing process of growth and substitution, could I not argue that I can reuse those one-coupon-per-person coupons?
