  1. They were the union, so they lost their jobs because THEY wouldn't compromise. And the product's been around a lot longer than any of them have had their jobs.
  2. I used to eat zingers when I worked 3rd shift. I can't say I miss them, but I did eat a ton of them. I haven't in 15+ years tho.
  3. Walmart was completely sold out here (my kids wanted to try em, because of the news). They got the little debbie equivalent instead, and proclaimed them "nasty".
  4. I've had my ipad mini for a couple of days, and I can say that while it works for me, I can't imagine recommending it for most people. I know why they made the compromises they did, but it's somewhat underwhelming. iPhone apps scale up to look REALLY pixelated. The touch points are a little small, so it can be annoying for web browsing. What I like about it: It's about the perfect size for a car GPS It fits in the bag I wanted to carry it in, that I could never fit the full sized ipads in It's small enough to be comfortable reading at night as I'm falling asleep It runs IOS apps
  5. If you want good management in a company that's obviously on it's way down, you have to pay a lot. Heck, I'm not in management, and the only way I'd EVER consider going to work for a company that was in dire straits financially is for 3-4x my normal hourly rate. That said, hostess outlived it's market. People are more particular about what they eat today than in years past, so any value in their brand is only going to go down. And I can't imagine repurposing the hostess brand for healthy alternatives. Maybe someone will buy their intellectual property, and then sell their products in a smaller scale, so they have a chance at success. "Fuck it, have a twinkie!" "That 5 lb Carl's Jr Burger sure was good, now finish your meal with a dozen Ho Hos!"
  6. Happy Birthday oranges!

    So the jlc navy seal watch isn't worn by seals? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!
  8. You'd know within the first 10 minutes if it was doing what you wanted.
  9. nice huffy
  10. just switched to comcast business at home. Same price as before, but faster speeds, and no cap.
  11. for under 100 euros, I recommend finding a screaming deal on JH13s.
  12. you get sick of good deserts when you have to eat 7 billion of them on christmas night?
  13. happy birthday dinner
  14. [Voltron]an annoying cunt[/voltron]
  15. but you did know it'd be big, metal, and cylindrical.
  16. After you shill them on the Internet
  17. You knew there would be consequences. You're lucky they're minor.

    I don't think that's true at all, really. If you go to an anime convention there are more women than men, and the women trend toward normal more than the men too.
  20. Well...it looks like one anyway
  21. I think it helps to read it from the perspective of an extreme outsider.
  22. I haven't read it in 15 years, but I loved it when I read it.
