Man, that's what I was thinking. What a great opportunity for a lunch spot.

All they have is Subway, Deckbar, Southern Poboys and a Chinese place, for something like 5,000 people.

I'd open "Deep Fried Everything".

you can get over to Elmwood/Clearview or head towards Uptown and be somewhere eating within 10/15 minutes.

Uh, no. What does politics have to do with anything? I'm not affiliated with any political party or ideology.

Please, point out what was wrong in what I wrote. Please, dissect my post, and tell me what's untrue. Are you capable? Or, do you just wildly go about making asinine generalization often?

WTF? If they don't want to offer regular soda, they shouldn't offer soda at all. Diet isn't all that different.

Some of the people at our office must not own a mirror, or just DGAF about their health/appearance.


It's okay. You give enough fricks about their business to make up for it.

My wife says those restaurants are now virtually empty. What do y'all think about this?


I think someone's going to get fired for making these stupid decisions and losing a bunch of money for the company.

shite I wish my office had a cafeteria. I have to bring my lunch or go elsewhere to find it, so I'm sorry if I dont sympathize too much with the employees that dont care for the healthier yet still extremely convenient lunches.

I will say that on the business side of things they could have gone about this much much better than they did.

You're damn right I give enough fricks. I'm paying stupid high health insurance premiums because of the smokers and fatasses who DGAF about their health.

No. You're paying stupid high health insurance because your insurance company offers insurance to smokers and fatasses.

The Lake and General have very good food, unless you are on the cardiac plan which blows. The hospital where I was diagnosed with stroke number 3 put me on a pureed diet for a few days that REALLY sucked. There is no sensation like a morning cup of coffee that turns in a warmish decaffienated cup of Jello like product in a few minutes.

Why does it always have to be the fatasses that enjoy the french fries and the mash potatoes? I'm a perfectly healthy and fit guy, but if someone were to take away ALL the food that are deemed "unhealthy", I'd be pissed too. Why should I suffer cause some fat frick can't control their urges?

I don't mind a place offering healthy options, but they have to be just that, options.

I honestly don't give enough of a frick about the subject. I just thought your sermonizing was amusing, sport.

I wasn't sermonizing, just stating the painfully obvious facts. Trust me, when I'm sermonizing, you'll know it, squirt.
