And then, many years later, he died of unrelated causes. <br /><br />I have an idea, though. Suppose people don't eat there - maybe they think the food is bad or whatever. If enough people do this, the places will close.<br /><br />Crazy idea, huh? <br /><br />DrGeckohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480708164024012673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-21436279254715670142015-10-02T03:24:16.049-04:002015-10-02T03:24:16.049-04:00Subway: Eat Shit for looking the other way at Jare...Subway: Eat Shit for looking the other way at Jared's pedophilia.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-90429517507433932612015-10-02T00:18:33.698-04:002015-10-02T00:18:33.698-04:00Their so called fresh bread reportedly had plastic...Their so called fresh bread reportedly had plastic bits in it for years.

Do you only see small mom and pop stores but really want corporate sandwiches? "Bland-atra" might be right for you. Side affects include high levels of preservatives and non-digestibable plastics, bored tastebuds, a desire to listen to Taylor Swift and watch endless hours of network TV. Bland-atra will allow you to eat like you live the suburbs but still pay insanely high city rents. Children under the age of 12 do not suffer from retail blindness.

Seriously what we need is a store that sells buttons, bits of cloth, metro tickets for those waiting for the bus, and do-dads from all over the world. What we don't need is another nail salon, taco store, etc. But in truth what we will get is whoever is willing to pay NYU's rent demands.
