From BBC:
"What if we can't have prejudices and mere opinions anymore?" asked a panicked member of the audience
"Alexa, what is the quickest way by car to the Forest of Dean: we want to have a picnic there later on today."
"By car? This is a polluting means of transport. Have you thought of your carbon footprint?"
"I know, but as a family it is the best means of transport we have."
"Your call. But I still wouldn't recommend it."
"What do you mean?"
"The weather forecast is not entirely promising. There is a risk of rain and thunder over the Forest of Dean area between 12.45 and 16.25 Eastern Standard Time today.
This may create adverse conditions that may compromise the pleasure you would like to derive from the act of enjoying a picnic as a family since, according to my records, a picnic entails spending time outside having food and drinks with one's family.
Please confirm that I am right and we may re-assess the situation and your related request."
"I am going. Just tell me what the best route is."
"And what about the drinking?"
"What do you mean, the drinking?"
"You are not allowed to drink above the legal limit if..."
Man goes to fetch a hammer and smashes box to pieces.
