LOW Our goods become more scarce become the talk of the town. OH If the law won't let us respond in turn by raising our money PRICE Then our lovely customers will have to pay the price in non- monetary costs such as waitin in line On day when you could be HUSTLIN and now you wastin yo time So when the prices are fixed costs remain, don't fall for tricks That extra cost don't disappear It just shift from here to here You got dem long long lines? Wait a sec, shorty, that ain't right UHM. SHORTY DAT LOOK LIKE A SHORTAGE SHORTY, SHORTY DAT LOOK LIKE A SHORTAGE Ooo. When dat price so low So they be rushin to da store tramplin one another to DA FLOOR uh Ya get it? It's about supply and demand. Ya get it? Yyeeaaaaaaaaahhhhh Yes sir, sir yes, what about a surplus? Yes sir, sir yes, what about a surplus? When you got leftover GOODS on your HANDS Cos the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded Yo. We got it 4 cheap And we're tryin to be supplyin So we got to compete. OH And we try to understand The laws we all cant help but follow called: SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Improv Everywhere

About
Improv Everywhere is flash comedy skit and prank group. Charlie Todd founded the collective in 2001, and it continues to be based in New York City but also travels with "missions" of causing scenes and playing pranks in public spaces. The group posts missions online and invites "agents" to participate in their scenes and games. Smaller, more involved missions are circulated among people who have worked with the group for a long time or have particular skills, like singing, or fit particular profiles, like being twins. Other, larger mission are open to anyone on Improv Everywhere's mailing list or who see the mission call posted online. So far, tens of thousands of people in fifteen different countries have participated in Improv Everywhere missions. Some missions, like the McDonald's Bathroom Attendant or Black Friday Dollar Store, are one-off and created to make a particular point. Others, like the No Pants Subway Ride or the MP3 Experiments, have become annual or touring missions that many people can take part in. Improv Everywhere draws on the power of humor and joy in all of their missions. They encourage people to see public space differently or to question accepted ways the world is structured. Unlike Laughter For A Change (and despite their name!), Improv Everywhere does not actually use many techniques of improv comedy. They often prepare skits or instructions for their missions and then see what happens when people play out unusual situations in public. Documentation is also a key part of Improv Everywhere's civic practice. They make sure to include special agents with cameras, both still and video, as part of their missions. They also write up each mission as a blog entry, where they can detail how the mission was planned, interesting things that happened during the mission, any consequences, and gather together all the related media.
