mom placation was ironing by which mens perrypops in a womansuit is the new child mystericating teats that can taint baconated digestive broads plastercasting gnostically from the great gospel wwjh

so cooked while you wait includes them making fresh patties, etc?

The one concession to reality, alas -- they make the patties at their own central site and ship 'em out daily. At the location across from UCI I usually see their big truck delivering everything (patties, buns, vegetables, etc.) for the day to said spot each morning.

You guys are making me feel hungry again. It's almost midnight, ffs!

I'm not sure I have ever seen an elliptical machine in person. I have certainly never tried one! Is it worth a humiliating evening at the fitness room of one of the local colleges?

ned, in nz the mcdonald's now has an open kitchen and a policy of 'made fresh, just for you', so they don't make any burgers until you order and you see them being put together.

but the ones at the berkeley macca's are still the best i've eaten.

This is all good re: NZ's wisdom. Now imagine that quality applied to something even *better* than a McDonald's! :-D (Okay, I will stop! Remember, we are all doing this for you because you rule -- I would have told evil people to only eat at Taco Bell.)

for someone who is 'OMG SO STRESSED SO MUCH TO DO I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE LEAVING WHEN I"M SO BUSY' my boss certainly seems to know how to have chatty time w/ his friends on the phone.

I had the IN 'N' OUT on sunday and by fast food standards it is very good, expecially the shakes which are very proper and don't seem to be made of margarine, burgers pretty good although I wouldn't expect hormone free beef. Definitely best fast food burger. Also I like the simplicity, they do burgers, fries, shakes and sodas and nothing else.

On the food front, had awesome thai up in hollywood last night, ok the green papaya salad with salty crab was a little disappointing, they didn't believe me when I asked for it really spicy.

Heheh. They are not used to non-Thais asking for 'really spicy' around here, trust me.

last night i indulged myself with a massive platter of enchiburritacomale insanity at Boca Chica w/FB and K. so awesome. great margaritas. wooooo.

xpost it seems shocking, but after 30+ years of thai support MN has finally broken through the barrier of O_o when it comes to not-thai ordering 5 pepper hottt

speaking of which, it breaks my heart that ed is coming to STPL and that the downtown Sawatdee is closed. I have an alternate within walking distance of the excel though, so life will be OK.

WAIT DID WE ALREADY HAVE THE CONVERSATION ABOUT THE DOWNTOWN SAWATDEE BEING CLOSED???????????

(I think we did but still: WAHT)

it is soul crushing, srsly

ON THIS HISTORIC SITE THE INTERNET POSTER BLACK BEYONCE WENT TO PROM NIGHT DINNER TWICE

they should have an eternal flame

Heheh. They are not used to non-Thais asking for 'really spicy' around here, trust me.

YA RLY. when I eat green papaya salad I want to be able to see through time afterwards.

Hey, I went there twice, too!

wait did i go there three times then?

I dunno, all I know is I dragged both of my prom dates there; I know we were all together senior year but I think junior year it was just M and me.

my prom date and i went to macaroni grill LOL

WAHT

I haven't been to Sawatdee forever. WANT

There's still one in Mpls, right?

PS You went with a group your jr. year, Dan.

(Why do I remember Dan's prom better than he does?)

only my laziness in ever getting a scanner saves dan and FB and i from full on senior prom picture in my parents living room expose

digital camera technology will destroy the lives of our children forever

my prom date left me for another girl

;_;

my prom date was too shy to make any moves other than holding my hand the ENTIRE night.

tehresa, now that is just SAD.

xp hahahaha John, I would like to see those photos.

I just went to prom on my own and danced with everyone else's dates. A contextual winner is me.

stealthy moves, ned.

You were required to have a date in HSTNGS, which is some stupid bullshit when you think about it.

Anyway, good for you, Ned! (Also, yay for dancing. Cuz it is FUN)

One tries.

Apropos of nothing, an ad over on Facebook just now:

"Host an exchange student!"

The accompanying photo:

http://ads.ak.facebook.com/ads2/flyers/76/17/6002222448076_1_eee9fc27.jpg

was date also required to be of opposite sex?

I am sure that the answer to that was yes, although I can't remember if it was spelled out that way at the time.

Ned, that photo is alarming me.

I went to two proms in dresses that only varied in color. Boring.

My mind is a total sieve about certain things but not the AWESOMENESS OF SAWADTEE

i had a stalker who asked me to prom and i declined because "i already had a date" (which i eventually did) and she was at prom, sitting in a chair, staring at me, face contorted in rage, tears flowing. this lasted for about an hour.

Your junior year was the year you went in a group, but yes, you did go with M that year. Same year that M famously woke up in the morning and said, "John, pull down your pants and let us see your stretchy thing." (god if I had known that was coming, I would have had a camera ready, because the look on John's face was PRICELESS)

xp What happened after the hour was up? (I'm afraid to ask!)

i went to a sleepover party with like 9 friends immediately afterward and i'm the only one still alive, nothing big

Okay, well now we know who the killer was.

o_O

Surprise!

Sara, I didn't know you had it in you.

lol you haven't known her as long as some of us

I seem so innocent and kind.

hahahaha Dan

(btw Thursday State Fair DEFINITELY happening)

Awesome! I will re-confirm with my babysitter.

Uh, and prepare to eat CHEESE CURDS
