My roommate Riley's alarm, in "real life," is going off. The sound is a repeated bing, somewhere in between the sound a bell makes and the sound a honk makes. As this is happening, I am dreaming.
I am purchasing a new car using either a computer or an iPhone application. I choose the car, and decide to see what kind of price I'll be offered. I hit the "Calculate" button to see the final cost of the vehicle that I have just customized. As I do so, it starts adding costs like taxes, titles, and licenses. Each time it adds a cost, the alarm goes, "bing."
The alarm must have binged about a hundred times, because there ended up being a couple of thousand dollars of overcosts. The final price of the car- $218, 534.
