Dilbert: How's the pay?
Alice: I'm payed in joy. And my hours are from yesterday until forever! (edit) Dilbert: Everyone likes the simple life until it gets complicated. (edit) Dilbert:I know you've grown accustomed to the new ways -- the authenticity and the relationship with nature. It's a lie. We live in a cold, mechanistic technocracy. We have to make that work. I know life is unfair -- you'll get no argument from me. I know it's not fun and it's not novel but it's real. (edit) Dilbert: What the hell is going on?
Alice: We're celebrating the return to simpler times.
Dilbert: You mean the downfall of civilization. (edit) Alice: You have drunk from the cup of management.
Loud Howard: Now you're infected.
Dilbert: What are you talking about? That's ridiculous.
Wally: Soon your technical skills will evaporate like the fine mist on a summer lawn. (edit)

In the first shot of the Axle on the Garbage Man's cart, you see the on the outside of the wheel, but between the wheel and the cart there is no axle, nor a hole in the cart for one.
(edit)
Far away Dogbert's bowl of spaghetti is big -- the same size as the bowl of breadsticks. When the camera zooms in the bowl of spaghetti is much smaller than the breadstick bowl.
