White Castle Sued Over Tight Seating

Okay, first of all, Martin Kessman, the castle in White Castle isn’t supposed to mean palatial, and the people who sit in White Castle’s seats are not royalty. So when you sued White Castle over their seats’ failure to accommodate every single one of your 290 pounds, I think it might have simply been a misunderstanding over language. It happens. Hey, you’re a stockbroker: language isn’t exactly the currency you trade in. Numbers are, along with something-for-nothing entitlement. Maybe that’s why White Castle, when they comped you after your last complaint, sent vouchers for hamburgers instead of cheeseburgers. Sometimes, language is a place where meaning gets lost. So look at it this way: those tables and chairs–they’re kind of like their own SEC, the regulation of their users inherent in the nature of their design.
