Its like driving ten miles out of you way to go to a real creepy
neighborhood to get your snapshots for 14 cents each instead of 15 cents
each. 
And who cares that prints look like crap with dust and scratches on them
from a never washed out machine.
And the 15 cent prints would have been done dip and dunk by hand and printed
by hand by trained professionals who run it back a second time if they
didn't like the way they looked first out.

In other words you're saving a penny so who cares about anything its all a
big joke anyway.
That's jpegs.
How's that lens of yours doing on eBay?
