I hope they've planned for the increase in demanded refunds. Sometimes people don't finish what's on their plate because they didn't like it or it was cooked incorrectly. Not everyone in this situation would make a big deal out of it. But if they are giving my shit about not finishing the food I didn't like in the first place, you can bet I'll demand a refund on the spot.
On what basis? That *you* didn't like it, or that there was something wrong with it? Satisfaction guarantees are optional, and not many restaurants would opt for them. Something wrong would be an overcooked steak, maybe, and to get your satisfaction guarantee out of that, you'd need to complain when you started it, not when you'd notionally finished your meal.
That is a very poor excuse. I think any competent adult could figure out how to solve the problem if your excuse were true. It also doesn't explain why doctors are late at the beginning of the day as much as at the end.
Because they over-book. It really is all about money.
Japanese cuisine portions are petite, anyway. I wish more restaurants would offer portion sizes, though, because most over-do it. Entree sized portions are better for you.
People walk on busy highways without sidewalks and think they're going to be perfectly safe? Why on earth would a thinking person even consider going by that route?
Your question contains its own answer, which I have bolded.
Get them hooked on writing addons for the game they're interested in (assuming that it supports some kind of API) It isn't an end in itself, but it gets them interested in coding. From there on they can play with real languages.
And that crazy scheme that zapped part of the floppy with a laser, and then tried to write to that sector, and if it was successful, it failed. Generally took about 15 minutes to hack the code so that it ignored the result.
Sigh. I can only think of the scene from "Life of Brian"
Stop! Stop, will you?! Stop that! Stop it! Now, look! No one
is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle! Do you understand?! Even,
and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say 'Jehovah'.
Speakerphones are annoying, even more annoying than normal phones.
Even when you're trying to use them as designed. (a room full of people trying to understand the people in conference on the phone, who appear to be in a fish-tank)
So that indeed, casts some doubt of the explanation of the study that phonecalls are annoying because you only hear half the conversation...
Personally, it has more to do with the loudness, and (in case of "hidden" phones like earplugs) with constantly having to wonder "is this person talking to me?"
The solution to that is to answer them as if they were.

And an inability to understand this is behind the national debt. :^)
Do you live here, to comment on the economic situation?

That's going to do wonders for the growing obesity epidemic.
Then again, sushi probably isn't a contributing factor for the obesity epidemic.
Doggie bags.
Salmonella sure helps you lose weight.
You want it to go out of business because it offends your philosophy?

Just order the 8 piece rolls or 2 pieces of sushi.
But your screwed if you wanted an odd number.
But I wanted prime tuna!

Now if only they'd release it for their desktop version :^)
I want a fuel-cell! One that I can have as carry on and use in a plane!
Pick a standard, or pick drm, but you can't have both and expect it to work everywhere.
With luck she will have to pay costs.

I think ebook publishers are trending towards WO (write only) ebooks.

Not seeing Murdoch news sites on a Google search? I don't see any down side to this.
Oh yeah? Well my car engine stops traffic lights! Take that, IBM!
Discrete is an absolute (yes?) so 'rather discrete' would be qualifying an absolute.

Mod parent as funny, with a bittersweet flavour.
