(And I am not talking a little yelling but groups of people – at least a dozen to 20 on each side – threatening each other. I was waiting for gunshot.) The first time, a group of 6 or 7 men beat up one guy – kicking at him while he writhed on the sidewalk.

The noise from the equipment never, never stops, and the smell! The SMELL!!!! My apartment stinks like a cheap hotel kitchen after the breakfast rush now. If you own an apartment in one of the neighborhoods slated to get their very own IHop (I'm looking at you, Limelight neighbors), sell now. Because once the doors open on the new grease palace, you'll be trapped. No one will buy your place once they see, hear and smell what's going on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-72087181074145324472011-10-21T12:41:33.186-04:002011-10-21T12:41:33.186-04:00Or maybe it's because they're a little ash...Or maybe it's because they're a little ashamed to come in and work for the corporate greedholders of America.

Single occupancy for women.”<br />This design is done for the safety of the customers. If the bathrooms were not solitary, the sonic boom type noise due to the extreme diarrhea plus the stink warfare impact (WMD indeed) would wipe out additional customers as well. As they say in the military, keep collateral damage to the minimum.Crazy Eddienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-73447947087218890422011-10-20T10:28:43.767-04:002011-10-20T10:28:43.767-04:00This is what happens when self-indulgent hipsters ...This is what happens when self-indulgent hipsters who'd prefer to spend $30 on breakfast go to a restaurant chain that doesn't pretend to be anything but what it is - a restaurant chain. <br /><br />Get off your high horse and order another $4 cup of coffee.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-6779961487463092522011-10-20T10:17:31.365-04:002011-10-20T10:17:31.365-04:00reminds me of the time in college my buddy ordered...reminds me of the time in college my buddy ordered a t-bone steak at Denny's. suffice to say the night didn't end well for himabrodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-67107185199117512642011-10-20T10:00:21.706-04:002011-10-20T10:00:21.706-04:00@Marty--good thing.@Marty--good thing.Melaniehttp://melaniemusings2.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-10296738424605236912011-10-20T09:53:46.649-04:002011-10-20T09:53:46.649-04:00A meal that interspersed flights of fancy like the...A meal that interspersed flights of fancy like the “Monster Mozza Sticks" — in which the mozzarella appears in delicately fried, ready-to-chew tubes — with a "Philly Cheese Steak" and "Large Pancakes With All the Fixin's" might have seemed overly coy or precious simply because they appeared at the table in a series that demanded your unalloyed attention!
