Indeed. Lactose tolerance is a powerful mutation. The rest of us should fear them for their superior genes.

I can imagine it would be hard to maintain lactose tolerance with a dairy allergy.
"millionaires tax" is such a ludicrous misnomer.
This is a tax on people with over $1 million income annually. It's very hard to sink as low as becoming a mere "millionaire" on $1 million annual income.
A person making $1 million in income would need mutliple expensive hobbies, multiple nasty drug habits and to recklessly sink a few yachts, just to drop as low in net worth as a humble jeans-wearing crime-avoiding salt-of-the-earth "millionaire".
An average chap who spent 40 years owning a small lawn mowing business is a millionaire. This tax doesn't touch his money, at all.
I guess "multimillionaire" and "decamillionaire" don't roll off the tongue, in headlines, though.
At least he still outranks Ensign Kim.

The prosecution rests this - quite frankly open-and-shut - case."
"When... This song... Is gone...!"
I think my favorite tale from this book is the one with the two belligerent assholes (who confront Luke and then ObiWan), being various forms of belligerent and assholes in other contexts. It's surreal, but fitting.
Was reading this to my SO, and was given a correction for Quark: gets Rom to pay Quark for the privilege of returning Quarks cart.
Those are both excellent points.
Hiring people is a big risk. Anything you can do to mitigate that risk (evidence that you're someone they should hire) will increase your chances of being hired exponentially.
That's a great summary. Well said.
