Here's a hint:<br /><br />ReviewHotel Good Hotelname<br /><br />A script doesn't mean it's autonomous, it means he invokes it when he gets home and gives it an argument or two for what he wants to happen. You don't recreate your blog from scratch every time you want to say something different do you?<br /><br />As for a single review... a lot of people specifically read the bad reviews and base their judgement on that. A single recent review that says "bed bugs" would ensure my girlfriend avoids all hotels within a 20 mile radius! Also a lot of hotels don't have hundreds or thousands of reviews. BHG is going for a small impact anyway. Is it going to make a difference to the hotel? No. Is there a slightly larger chance a room will be open next time he wants to go there? Yes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-25668897243515309142011-10-05T15:12:20.284-07:002011-10-05T15:12:20.284-07:00Random is the new buzzword for "I like it but...Random is the new buzzword for "I like it but can't justify it because it has no objective merit, only subjective.

This has associations with travel and movement, which is good because FedEx is a delivery company.<br /><br />In this comic strip, Randall has jokingly pretended that he can't make out this simple hidden design because he instead makes out a much more complicated one. It is implied this is because he is on drugs, which are funny. Also part of the design is a guy in a Guy Fawkes mask.
