What has been your favorite social experiment to try on a college campus and which experiment has changed your opinion on a certain topic the most?

Thanks for doing an AMA! You're my favorite economist!

In your book Predictably Irrational, you talk about the difference between social and market norms.

I recently found myself in a situation where a friend of my friend was picking me and my friend up from the airport and I didn't know if I should pay him or if it would just be considered a favor. I ended up giving him money. Do you think there is a better option in situations like these?

Perhaps I should have given him a gift? "While gifts are financial inefficient, they are an important social lubricant."

Everyone already took my questions so I thought I would just thank you for making me laugh. I saw you live at Comedy Cellar last year; you were hilarious. Keep it up.

Also, I have been looking for a montage of scenes that you're in in Louie. I like how in most scenes you say that Louie sucks at comedy. I also like when you make fun of his mom.
