More Halloween Fun

When I was a bit younger, I’d spend a couple days designing my pumpkin and then I’d spend hours carving it. As I get older, I’ve noticed that my time spent planning and time spent carving have DRASTICALLY gone down… Now, I’m lucky if the entire process takes an hour.

Thankfully, these guys have kept the spirit alive and carve some cool pumpkins! Enjoy!

It’s never too early for Christmas carols.

You can just never underestimate the depths to which geeks will go to be geeky! Need proof? Here it is

Getting ready for Halloween

How many of these plastic costumes I wore on Halloween year after year I can’t recall. I’m sure I thought I was cool at the time…. However, I believe these are properly named as being the Worst Halloween Costumes

I’m still amazed that nobody ended up losing any body parts and that we didn’t end up on “Real TV” for blowing somebody up…

No wonder they work in fast food

As he set my order on the table, he says, “There are two slices of cheese, I put them both on top.”

I wasn’t exactly sure what he meant, but I said, “OK” and began to eat. I then noticed that there was only one patty of meat. But, there was in fact two slices of cheese…

After I finished the single burger, I went back to the counter and placed an order for a DOUBLE cheese with DOUBLE meat burger. I explained to the guy that what I had wanted to begin with was a burger with 2 patties and two slices of meat. He apologized and then went back to explain to the cook what I wanted. He came back and apologized again and said he’d only charge me for a single burger since I made him feel bad (not quit sure how I did that…). I paid my bill and sat back down.

After a few minutes, the same employee from before calls out my order number. I raise my hand and he walks over and sets down TWO burgers. A quick look and I notice that they have brought me two double cheeseburgers. So I’ve now gone from having a single patty to having 5. Sheesh!

Yes, I really have the coupon!

since I was watching a hockey game and my wife didn’t feel like cooking. I placed the call and the phone was answered by a gentleman named Nadir. I placed my order for 2 XL pizzas and then mentioned that I had a coupon for a “Buy one, get one free”. Nadir then explained to me that this coupon was only good on Tuesdays. I looked over the entire coupon page and found not a single mention of it being only valid on Tuesdays. I told Nadir that it didn’t say that. He then told me that the coupon was expired. I then explained that it clearly stated the coupon was good through 7/15/02. At this point, I would have expected him to give me the benefit of the doubt and agree to the terms of the coupon I claimed to be holding. But, he didn’t. He explains that my total is going to be $30 and change. My first reaction was to cancel the order entirely. But, instead, I told Nadir I’d bring the coupon in and pick up the pizzas. When I got to the store, the two girls (I didn’t catch their names) both gave me the initial feeling that I was really putting them out by just walking in the door. No smiles. No good evening. I explain that I have 2 pizzas to pick up. One of the girls goes to grab my pizzas while the other rings up my total as $30. I hand her the coupon. She looks it over for a moment and changes my total to $19.46. Doing a little math in my head, I’m trying to figure out how taking off the price of one pizza only drops the total by $10. But, I’m in a bit of a hurry now as the game is back on and I’m missing the third period! I hand her my credit card and at that time Nadir walks up to her and takes the coupon from her hand and looks it over. He looks up and says to me, “I’m the one that spoke with you on the phone.” I replied, “I know, and that’s why I’m here and not having my pizza’s delivered.” The girl can’t find a pen, and apparently, that’s my fault, too. She gives me a bit of a dirty look and storms off to find a pen. She finds one, and hands it to me along with the credit card receipt I’m supposed to sign. I get a bit of a chuckle at the fact that there is a place for me to leave a tip. I place a large ZERO in the tip section, fill in my total and I take my pizzas and head home, more than a little upset.

I worked in a family food service business for 11 years. If a customer called and said they had a coupon, I would have to believe them until they were unable to produce it. It only makes sense. Why should I, the paying customer, have to go out of my way to prove that I wasn’t lying? Did nobody explain to them that “The Customer Is Always Right”? (or, at least until you can prove them wrong)

At the end of June my family and I will be moving to Vegas. I explained to my wife when I got home that even if we were to live in Redondo Beach for the next 20 years, there is no way we would be ordering from that Papa John’s Pizza again. I’m sure the girls at the counter won’t miss me.”

World’s worst white rapper

Check this kid out. I’m sure he’s gonna be the next “Star Wars Kid”. And, he’s probably gonna get his mouth washed out with soap when mom finds this…

WAY too much time on one’s hands…

Holy crap! Here is the world’s longest palindrome. I can’t even begin to think how long this must have taken.
