In New York, gone are the evenings of extended leisure. Restaurants are now asking diners to keep their meals to two hours. This eliminates the ordering of appetizer after appetizer, multiple desserts, and drinks at every turn. Some gastro-heads are up in arms. I hope the trend spreads to other facets of polite society.
Movies should have a federally mandated limit of two hours. Same goes for dates or debates. The workday should be confined to the same time frame as well. Sporting events, road trips, and gallery openings. A law like this would force people to get to the point. No more protracted meandering allowed, under penalty of imprisonment. Which, I should add, will be much longer than two hours.
If you can’t figure it out in two hours, move on to something else.
