Yes, I’ve been wondering about my opinion on the use of triple versus double corrugated cardboard. Where do I stand on that? ---

You thinks it’s all just a bunch of silly wankery. When will people start focussing on what’s _really_ important, like brown vs. white cardboard? ---

I’ve been of the opinion that the art in the break room at work is quite the ugliest stuff on three planets. Seriously, it’s the Vogon poetry of paintings. Can you give me a new opinion so I can stop the rising tide of hatin’ every time I go in there? ---

Perhaps we could exchange opinions? If you give me your opinion of off-shore drilling, I’ll give you my opinion of The Beatles (they’re not that great and no one under the age of 50 should have any interest in them). ---
