Funny thing -- in my head, that sounds exactly like "No, I hate manipulative assholes."

“Your answer ‘I hate savings’ contains the letter ‘S’, just like the word ‘yes’. You have been signed up for newsletters anyway.”
My pet peeve is ones that make you say "Please". I don't know what they are thinking.
