Guy One: "This whole 15-minute city thing is a scam."
Guy Two: "Absolutely."
Another hour passes. They chat about the weather, politics, sports, and why contemporary popular music is not as good as what they grew up with.
Guy One: "Check this out." *Shows pamphlet* "Dream vacation. Look at that. That's eighteen floors. Holds almost 8,000 people!"
Guy Two: "Wow, look at that! Is that Norwegian?"
Guy One: "Carnival."
Guy Two: "Right."
Guy One: "Wait, look. Twenty bars, cafes, and restaurants of all varieties! Twenty! Two theatres, a music hall, and even a tree-lined park! Wait, look. Seven pools, a water park with six waterslides, a climbing wall, an ice rink, basketball court, and minigolf! Mini golf! A spa, fitness centre, and private training rooms, too!"
Guy Two: "This is the greatest thing I've ever seen! Why would you go to Disneyland or Las Vegas?"
Guy One: "With its dense living quarters paired with no vehicles of any kind -- just imagine, no traffic -- everything you need and more is all just a steps from your bedroom door! I wish I could live on this thing!"
