2. That sucks
I always specify no pickle, no cole slaw

and sometimes I get this snarky response about it not coming with cole slaw anyway, and I say "good, keep that crap away from me"

3. That sucks.
One odd little quirk of mine is to order my sandwich with tomatoes, and then remove them before I eat it. That way, i get the taste and feeling of a tomato, without a tomato. I don't tomatoes on my sammiches...

22. That's the nine-pound cheeseburger at Denny's Pub in Clearfield, PA
Edited on Tue Jul-12-05 11:31 AM by Richardo
Six pound are the meat, the other three the fixin's. No one had ever eaten one until eariler this year when some college co-ed (the future Mrs GOPisEvil) scarfed one down.

:wow:

Note: They now have an 11-pound model.

57. She is no longer the only champion!
A couple of weeks ago, another skinny young woman ate that big burger too! But she trained for it - she previously ate the two pounds of meat burger, and also the three pounds of meat burger. So far, two woman have conquered it - no male champions yet.

While you're waiting for your burger to cook (it takes about an hour) they give you photo albums to look through. There are pictures of all the people who have tried to do it, and of course the two ladies who won. Anyway, there are lots of big burly guys that tried, but they did not prevail. Just two skinny young woman - how do you figure that?

They have plaques on the wall with the engraved names of everyone who was able to eat the smaller burgers (two pounds of meat, and three pounds of meat). All in all, the place is a hoot.

59. Mecca, indeed.
Did you know they do not allow you to use utensils (if you are in the contest)? You have to eat the entire thing with your hands. And you have to eat it with everything - no exceptions, no substitutions. Don't like onions? Tough shit - yer eatin' them.

empathy when people are having a rough time in their lives.

It's just what a gentleman does, after all.

I'll even eat your fries for you. I like pickles, so I would make that sacrifice.

21. It really does'nt seem like too much to ask for.
I am to the point where I want to make a card with pictures of what I want on my burger so the chances of it getting fucked up will be less.

There is this place here in my town that is a burger joint that everone loves. Except for me. They pre-prep all their burger fixins. So they actually have a bin of set ups that has a chunk of lettuce with a tomato slice and pickles. So if you ask for no pickles, they just take it off of the set-up. No more pickle, but plenty of yummy pickle juice.

It only took me going there twice before I caught on to their evil ways.

28. No
but as a server and bartender I know that mistakes happen. Other people run your food and don't read the ticket, you actually think you said no pickel but really didn't, or it was just a screwup.

But I would really think twice about calling someone an "asshole" if they are about to give you something that you are going to put in your mouth.

At a Denny's, no less.

I am very patient and understanding with people in the food service industry.

I am sorry you misunderstood the nature of my post. Here in the lounge, we post a lot of faux-rants.

37. I know how you feel
I go to Paneras around town and whenever I order my sandwich and ask them to hold the onions they always forget. It doesn't freak me out too much because sometimes I do eat onions on my sandwiches but it's just annoying. It's like they're messing with me.

I like pickles but I'd hate to have a pickle layin' on my fries. That's some sort of abomination right there.

46. i thought you were upset...
You said: "I said "no pickle" asshole!!: now my fries taste like pickle juice. x("

So I thought "I said "no pickle" asshole" meant that you had told someone that you didnt want a pickle and that they were an asshole for giving you a pickle." The use of the x( suggested contextually that you were unhappy with that as the mouth is in a frowney position and the eyes are clentched shut.

What did you mean? My bad either way...

47. i guess my intention was to convey a comical over-the-top reaction
to a mundane life experience, with the hopes of garnering some faux sympathy and mocking from my fellow lounge lizards.

A little bit of pickle juice doesn't really have much of an impact on my day. It was all done for humor.

51. maybe she was confused and was thinking about this instead
I thought that was your voice
I thought that was my car
Now we ain't ever met before
But I know who you are
You're living in my house
And I'm living in a tent
And don't laugh, this second job of mine
Is paying both our rents
You're out here buying Happy Meals
And I'm eating rice and pintos
You so much as crack a smile at me, man
I'll come through this here window

Well you took my wife
And you took my kids
And you took that life
That I used to live
My pride, the pool, the boat, my tools, my dreams, the dog, the cat
Yeah I think that's just about everything
Oh I almost forgot
Do you want fries with that?

Your ketchup's in the bag
And a check is in the mail
I hope your chicken's raw inside
And I hope your bun is stale
I'm supposed to tell you
"Please come back"
But how bout this instead?
I hope you both choke on a pickle
Man, that would tickle me to death
I don't know what you're waiting on
You're holding up the line
Oh man, you ain't got no change coming back
Are you out of your mind?

Well you took my wife
And you took my kids
And you took that life
That I used to live
My pride, the pool, the boat, my tools, my dreams, the dog, the cat
Yeah I think that's all there is
Do you want fries with that?

Well you took my wife
And you took my kids
And you stole the life
That I used to live
My pride, the pool, the boat, my tools, my dreams, the dog, the cat
Yeah I guess that about covers it
Do you want fries with that?
