Yeah, well, those Raisins sold out, too.
Problem with being the new California Raisins is the same as any flash-in-the-pan: You think you're the new Tony Tiger or Michelin Man, but you're just another Spuds Mackenzie _________________ Good morning! That's a nice tnetennba. |

Look what happened to that poor little mexican taco bell dog. They yanked him off the air by his collar when the PC Police found out that he, although surely "ART" of his creator, caused offense to a minority (insert "small group" here) popluation.
Who sold out there?!?! |

The ironic thing about the Taco Bell dog being pulled for supposedly being offensive is that it really wasn't. I used to have a clipped article from Lowrider Magazine that claimed that the chihuahua was the most inspired thing that Taco Bell had ever done, and sure beat the previous "Make a run for the border!" campaign in quality, entertainment value and relative possible offensiveness to Mexican culture. _________________ -BRUCKER |

Taco Bell is offensive to my tate buds, and my digestive system. Make a run for the bathroom! _________________ "Park the beers, and grab the smiles. It's flight time." - LtCdr. J. Robert "Bobby" Stone, USN (R.I.P.) |

They're talking about eating at White Castle. I don't think you're reading their posts correctly. |

If you just joke around, someone yells that you're acting like kids and they want a bit of respectable conversation. You start talking craft (and come on, we're not getting over anyone's head here), and someone calls you ivory-tower intellectuals.
As if "intellectual" should be a bad word.
Pisses me off, man, pisses me off. If you don't like people, go buy a Hot Topic t-shirt that expresses your philosophy and stay the hell out of our forums. |

Now, I realize that you've been surrounded by extraordinary gentlemen such as ourselves for quite a long time, Decaf...
So I fear that you may have forgotten the fact that the internet is filled to the rim with people who should not be allowed outside without supervision, let alone have access to a method of mass communication like this.
The web has clearly shown us that the democratic ideal of everyone being able to voice their opinions isn't always a good thing. _________________ Her lips are devil red, she's the color of mocha... |

I laughed out loud at "Only someone with the brain of a spongemonkey would vote for Kerry" - yeah, he isn't very lovable is he?
Then again, I tend to vote against the one proven to run things into the ground, so I may be a spongemonkey this Fall - Bush should run the cartoon as a campaign ad though, it might help to change/soften my opinion, better than 9/11 ads anyway - heh
David - I don't know why I love White Castles, it isn't rational I know and they do strange things to the intestines but...just...so...damn...good...
I can't help myself - Maybe they put crack in the mystery meat? Who knows... The fresh ones are the only ones I like though - don't fall into the trap of eating the frozen ones - they are NOT the same...
Maybe because they're 'pure'
I think maybe everyone was too hard on poor Leibach(although that was one embarrassing post). I mean, did he just say that we are high society, that we know art talk, and then liken us to celebrities? Yes Leibach, it's true, we are all these things and MORE.... Although, I am not sure how fictional ads can 'own' anything, if any ad could, it would indeed be our beloved monkeys(they got a pepper barr!!)
I want more criticism like this... (next time, don't eat the worm at the bottom of that bottle bro)
Smith's philosophy! Did you read that Playboy interview with Kevin Smith? It was enlightening about his recent movies...

| Maybe the Dems should scrap Kerry and put the Spongemonkeys on the ticket. They seem more appealing. |

Just last week out hobnobbing with Congersman Frog we remarked how much better seegars taste lit with hundred-dollar bills.

Here in Coolidge Corner, just opened. (Took over the space of a fine little shop, the Daily Bread, now sorely missed. Their olive rye was a treat.) |

This is kinda off topic but since we were talking about White Castle earlier:
Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle
Is the business selling out to the art? _________________

So are they saying that White Castle is the favorite of young, ethnic potheads, who can't get laid? _________________ "Park the beers, and grab the smiles. It's flight time." - LtCdr. J. Robert "Bobby" Stone, USN (R.I.P.) |

Hey! We get laid!!
heh - I thought it was funny, but was under the impression that the stereotype was people with one too many drinks in their system who eat there when everything else is closed... _________________ "One should not wish for the removal of mountains of adversity, but for the courage to climb them." |
