I should listen to somebody who's afraid to make choices at Subway?:

I mean seriously, how hard is it? How about this:
6" BMT on herbs and spices with provolone, toasted, with lettuce tomato green pepper, olives, sweet pepper, mayo and honey mustard. I mean, seriously, I don't think you need to have a command economy to choose a sandwich.
so much mayonnaise, Herr Dortlich..

Life has requirements. Thinking is hard. Grow up.

My favorite pet pev is they wait in line for five minutes and then when the waiter says what will you have they go and ask for a second to think about it. Same way with McDonalds the menu has not dramatically changed in twenty years and only at the counter do they think about there choices.

They are not actually motivated. It is typical in first world countries.

Finding an optimal choice may be an intractable problem. Fortunately, finding a good solution, if one exists, is usually much easier. Also fortunate, a best solution is usually not needed. The likelihood that what someone else will choose for me will be worse should be all the incentive I need to chose for myself.
