Gratuitous animated GIFS:
- Guy wakes up from a public power nap at that charging station. Something about that charging station seemed to give people the nods.
- People walking the show floor.
- Strangely hypnotic animated GIF of a woman walking past that Starbucks.
It also says it's going to throw up in its mouth a little bit.
