2. I've been there recently
Doesn't bother me...I know their corporate boards could be Rethugs, but I also know they can pay better for shorter shifts than where I can work, and I'm willing to do that since many of workers are students, and learn some customer relationship skills (some don't).

My first real paying job was at the Golden Starches. I learned a lot when I was 15-16 about customer service excellence. It stayed with me.

3. We don't need to forgive you or punish you . . .
Just think about how much agony your heart will go through pumping through the additional clogging in your veins.

:evilgrin:

5. THAT'S what I'm looking for!!
Some punishment. How long do you think it takes for the body to expel (or whatever) the grease in one large box of fries?

9. Depends...
Was it in the image of the almight, or old Abe?

:hi:

Cheer-up. As Democrats it's you're choice to buy from a red-suppoter. Next time, think of it like this (when that urge strikes you):

"I gotta fight the power!"

11. It's not how long it takes to expel, it's how much shorter your life
will be :). I'd say those fries cost you a good 2 or 3 months :evilgrin:

26. LOL . . .
I actually stole that pic from someone here at DU :).

Some Freeper buttwipe made a really lame post one time and while everyone was jumping on him, someone (I forget who) just posted that picture as a reply. It took me like 1/2 an hour stop laughing :).

8. Did you see that scene in Supersize Me
where the fries showed no sign of decomposition after being left in a jar for several weeks? Kinda makes you wonder what they put in them.

16. God youre a glutton for punishment
Fast food eating doesnt make you a bad democrat, what makes you a bad democrat is when you dont tolerate other points of view.

29. Okay...so think of the all the Trans-Fat your body absorbed today.
Those fries are loaded with nasty Trans-Fat. That thought ought to be punishment enough.

15. Chipotle is AWESOME
I ALWAYS get the hard shell, steak tacos with mild sauce and a dash of hot... so awesome. Greatest fast food restaurant ever!

21. It's a Taco chain
Usually it shares a building with a Noodles & Company... at least around here. They use organic meat and cheese whatnot... they are "trendy" because they play St. Germain over the speakers and stuff.

I think they are owned by McDonalds, actually.

30. I LOVE Chipotle Grill...nothing there is greasy, and the guac is
actually spicy. This is making me hungry, all of a sudden.

hmmmm...


I'll stay in...it's raining anyway.

But maybe after church tomorrow I will eat at the chipotle.....

I like Chipotle way better than Free Bird

28. Much.
In addition, I'm thinking of calling in my "sin" to Morning Sedition on Air America. They have a running bit on liberal sin. I think it's right up their alley.
