(no subject)

I know this is a subject that I've covered in detail many times, but these New Englanders are some donut-loving motherfuckers. You would not believe how many people have asked me about Krispy Kreme. "So, you have Krispy Kremes down south, right? Are they as good as they say they are? Huh? HUH? C'mon, tell me all about 'em!" I'm like, I dunno, yeah, they're good and all, but they're just donuts! But these people are rabid. And they're all atitter now that Krispy Kreme is building its first stores in the area. Apparently the grand opening of the first one, up in Mass., was a total mob-ass nutty crowd scene. And now they've moved into the Greater New Haven area. Look at this shit! You'd think a Waffle House had opened or something. Mmmmm, Waffle House . . .

Right on.

Hey, on the Kirby vacuum cleaner tip: I worked for Kirby too, and that's one of my many candidates for shittiest job!!! I was one of the guys who did the demonstations. (You know, the famous Salt Test?) I went for three days of training with two other losers, and then went out with a "Van Leader" named Junebug. We didn't have anybody calling ahead--we would just drive around neighborhoods and Junebug would bound up to the doors of houses and try to get them to let one of us in for a demo. It was horrible. I did exactly one demo during my one 12-hour day as a Kirby salesman and never showed back up again. Junebug's boss called me when I didn't show up the next day and I hung up on his pathetic ass. :) I gotta write about this in more detail later--it's a chilling yet hilarious story.

my boss had a three-ring binder that she lovingly hand-wrote "kirby, U R great!!" all over the front of.
and i know that was horrible grammar, but the thought of saying "upon which she had written..." made me chortle.

I'm so rural right now "I got" TWO delicious Waffle Houses in convenient driving distance. Mmmmmm....Waffle House.

Oh, that's it--rub it in! All I got is fifty Dunkin' Donuts within a ten-mile radius!!!

I saw that on channel 12 news last night. We had Krispy Kremes in S. Florida so its not a huge thing to me (although my sister and I are taking a "road trip" Sunday Morning to Milford to get us summadem Krispy Kremes!) LOL

I saw on the news that they had Krispy Kreme shuttles.. now thats a little reeeeediculous.

Haha, you're hooked. :) You know, I should have gone down there for the grand opening and started breaking in line and shoving people just to see what would happen. I'll bet people would have beat me with everything under the sun--brass knuckles, nunchucks, bicycle chains . . .

I think Krispy Kreme is pretty good, but I don't get why people like the plain donuts so much.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

I like those, but when it comes right down to it, I like just about any kind of donuts. I have to make a point never to buy them, cuz if I did I'd weigh about 600 pounds. :)

Maybe that's why the Yankee donut dependency strikes me so--I'm probably just jealous that all these suckers are indulging themselves and I'm not. :)

It's the hot, melty goodness of a fresh'un.

But lawks, I could go for some Waffle House gnarfing... some chili, and grilled stuff, some hash browns scattered, smothered and covered, a pecan waffle...

Right on--I'm already plotting my WH meal in rural Virginia on my trip home for Christmas.

Donuts. Blech. Deep fried sugar-lard balls.

Screw waffles. Eat pancakes.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

I can get with some pancakes. Truth be told, I always get omelets at Waffle House anyway. But at the Hoito I'd probably be gettin' the Finnish sausages slathered with imported mustard! Sounds like a place I'd dig--and if I hung out there, I'd insist that people call me "hoity toity."
