#14 - Stickers On Every Piece Of Fruit

Thank you, inspector #31, for checking out my pear. But you know what? The tiny sticker you've affixed to it? Not necessary.

Tell you what fruit people, you just issue a single blanket statement assuring me that you really are inspecting every piece of fruit and I'll take your word for it. No need to start stickering the grapes or anything. In fact, given that two anti-sticker rants have found their way into the first 14 posts on this site, it's safe to say I'm awaiting the fruit tattooing they promised us in '05 with greater eagerness than I am flying cars and robot butlers.
