The new profiles profiles are sweet. I love facebook.

Northeast Ohio is dreck, was the only thing decent around. I think I had angina in my hotel that night.

Ohio prostitues = :X

hahahaha - agreed!!!um - so i have heard..

Hardees is fighting with White Castle for worst fast food chain there is. Does anything else come close?

Taco Bell and it isn't close.White Castle rules.

Taco Hell is somewhat edible at least. White Castle is not. Just vile, awful, and disgusting stuff that they can only sell to people too drunk to realize they are eating garbage.

White Castle >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Taco Bell

Taco Bell is just disgusting.In an unrelated note, as it turns out it is awesome to be a Bears fan in Milwaukee when the Bears win the division. :X

 

[Disco Stu]

Oh, Baldwin, WI has a Hardee's too. :flex:

I've been in Lino Lakes, MN the past three nights (sister's house). Will be in New Richmond, WI the rest of the week (parent's house). And TigerFan, one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen came over to my sister's house the past two days. I prefer southern women in general, but some of these Nordic chicks are just stunning.

 

[General Malaise]

forgot about Subway. Also terrible.

Krystals is the southern version of White Castle. Bloody awful.

 

[General Malaise]

forgot about Subway. Also terrible.

Subways started appearing around NYC...hell... I don't know when- 5-10 years ago?I never notice them because I don't them, BUT- because they do something or other to their "bread" on site, they've always got a smell coming out of them. SOmetimes it smells like fresh bread baking, but most of the time it smells exactly like vomit.

 

[-fish-]

I'm assuming Taco Time is regional, as well as inedible.

 

[General Malaise]

I just wanted to add that the Chilito/chili cheese burrito that was taken off the menu back in the mid nine tees was the best tasting thing in the history of food. They got rid of it because the word Chilito means crank or something in Mexican. I can taste it now....

It's not on the menu but you can still order it as "chili cheese burrito".

I actually knew this too. Haven't had one in years. Probably 10 or more. But man...it's not because I don't like them.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

those 2 vikings cheerleaders must be the best looking girls in the midwest, no?

ETA: is Minnesota considered midwest?

This is very LHUCKSian of you.That brunette was f'ing hot, though.

oh come on

oh you come on

 

[boilerdave]

My cousin that lives in Madison is always talking about euchre too. Odd.

Not surprised to hear its not a St Louis thing.Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Minnesota its just about a religion.Indiana & Illinois, not so much.All other states who weren't in the old Northwest Territory are usually

Pretty big around my part of Indiana (Northeast, so MI/OH proximity).

Yep...euchre is pretty big in any part of Indiana I've been in.

 

[jplvr]

Jack in the Box = HardeesWestern vs. SouthernPretty sure JitB bought out Hardees many years back. Most of the Hardees I knew are gone now.

Aren't you talking about Carl's Jr.?

I rarely eat there, but thought they had some kind of sourdough jack sandwich.

Aye, sister in South Bend confirms. College buddy in Zionsville (Indianapolis) claimed otherwise. Just after 9 and I've already learned something new. Time for a break.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Interestingly, couldn't find anything definitive on why euchre devolved into a regional game. Several sites claim it was the most popular game in the U.S in the late 1800s (I have my doubts...the verbiage is almost identical, so it looks one of those single source myths to me). Anyway, this entry is typical:

The United States, the British Isles, Canada and Australia all have large followings of the game. In the United States, Euchre is generally regarded as a Midwestern game; though Euchre players can be found across the country, it is believed that the game is most predominant in the Midwest (particularly Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan) and a card player from that region is almost certainly expected to have heard of or played the game. Euchre is also popular in parts of Pennsylvania, because of its ties to the Pennsylvania Dutch.

No mention of NE Wisconsin or the Twin Cities - two areas I have had no trouble finding a game.I know one thing - lacrosse playing northeasterners have no clue about it.

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

I can confirm Euchere's popularity in the Pittsburgh area. I never played but I know people who did.

[jplvr]

Taco Bell, White Castle, and/or Krystals = toxic waste. It's like these places don't even try to serve decent food, but they hardly ever close so that when you're drunk enough to think it might taste good, your money is in the bank by the time you wake up and wish you didn't.

I think Subway is way overrated, but at least it doesn't run straight through your body like acid eating away at your insides. I don't know why they bake their own bread there, because that's the worst part of the whole experience.

Hardees used to be great for breakfast and I don't touch their burgers, sticking to the roast beef sandwich I ate as a kid.

Waffle House is the greatest place ever, but are comparable to regular diners in cities where those are common. We don't have those here, so we have Waffle House. I think it's the All American special which has 2 waffles (add pecans), 2 eggs over easy, bacon, toast, grits, and a glass of milk. I rarely ever make it through all of that, but I've tried plenty. Also, the hash browns were a staple for drunken nights in college. I had one friend who used to get hammered, order the hash browns scattered, smothered, chunked, diced... pretty much every option on the menu WITH chili and then he'd get them to put 2 sunny side eggs on top. He'd take two bites, ask for a to go box, and pass out in his chair every time. Good times.

It must have something to do with what part of the country you are in. There is no other way to explain these absurd statements.

 

[YSR]

Mostly I eat Taco Bell 2x/month - sure it's not real food, but it tastes good and is cheap.Krystal is a turd for the most part, but every so often I'll eat some of their Chiks.

crosby69 showing up in the NHL thread at 7:30am on Tuesday's is like clockwork. Let the Hippling begin that everyone ignores.

 

[Tiger Fan]

We have a subway in our building, and at about 10:00 every morning the smell of the bread creeps up the elevator bank. I think it smells awesome, but the taste is just bland. Yet, I continue to eat it alot b/c it's pretty healthy, quick, and cheap

I've always thought Subway deliberately pumps that baking bread smell out of their stores as a marketing ploy.

 

[Tiger Fan]

In the super bowl in 2 leagues and a 3rd place game in another league. Floor of $275 and Celing of $925. Plus, Saints game is Monday night and neither me nor any of my opponents have saints/falcons on our teams, so I can just sit on my ### and watch Red Zone Channel all day Sunday.

Also, this is the best fantasy season I've had. It's pretty amazing that it happens when I care the least about it. Back when I was die hard, I rarely won.

I know Cinnabon does this...except they have the product to back it up

In an unrelated note, as it turns out it is awesome to be a Bears fan in Milwaukee when the Bears win the division.

Hah! It's like you looked two hours into the future and saw me at the drive through. Would that you have been there to stop me!In an equally unrelated related note, I was the only patron of the Monkey to cheer the SC highlights.

I've heard this before. Never been a big Cinnabon fan; I just look like one.Now I remember why I laughed so hard: "You decided if we're going to be in the paper tomorrow, but that **** is going in my face."

Right. I might have 2-4 times a year. I'm craving it right now but I have a sleep study tonight. Actually, that would be pretty funny.

Who are you?

Oh, come on. Really? It's dog food. I mean, I ate it in college because it was open 24 hours and was a quick drive from the fraternity house. But my god....I don't think I'd eat there sober and I don't think any meal I ate went un-vomited. It's gross, man. Just obscenely gross.

It's hard to vomit something that runs through you that quickly.

 

[the rover]

I don't feel like Wendy's is getting enough love here.

Taco Bell is middle-of-the-pack for me, but with actual Mexican food in such close proximity, it would be silly for me to ever go there.

THIS ALL STARTED WITH ME SAYING IT WAS A SOURDOUGH JACK DAY!!!!!11 Look, I like some fast food. I'm just selective about it. I've whittled it all down to the Sourdough Jack and, on a very very rare occasion, a QP from McDonalds.

Now, that doesn't mean I'll run away from some KFC if a bucket landed in my lap. And I'm sure if pressed I'd scarf down a six pack of tacos with enough hot sauce.

But there is NO WAY in hell I'd eat Krystal's again. I don't think I could get past the smell before my body involuntarily began to enter auto-barf zone. Same thing happens to me if I smell a can of dip. I just start getting ill. Too many bad associations with it. You ever peel back the bun and get a good look at that patty? It looks like the surface of the moon! That does not look like any hamburger patty I've ever made. It looks like the face of Norv Turner. You want to scarf that down, be my guest. But do NOT try and tell me that it's tasty. Or good. Or better than the millions of options out there. It's vomit. You know it. I know it. Don't hand me a box of turd and tell me it's a brick of gold. I know turd when I see turd and THIS....this is turd.
