    Probably not tuna, I'm guessing.


    Full disclosure back in undergrad when we'd get embarrassingly high there was a Subway at the top of our street where a buddy worked and would make all kinds of ridiculous shit for us and ring it up for like a dollar.

    One of those was a surf and turf combo: footlong white bread (extra yoga mat please) where half was tuna salad with extra provolone and pickles and the other half was meatball with triple provolone.

    That Subway bread is nasty smelly. Like a sweaty gym locker.

    Yeah if there's one thing I remember about a Subway it's that smell. You stand in line to order for what like 5-10 minutes yet you smell like that bread for the rest of the day after walking out.

    Chinese Balloon

    Jersey Mike’s has it dialed though. For a chain it’s good.

    Yeah I can get down with a Jersey Mike's Italian with oil and vinegar and extra spicy mustard. Those pickles are the whip.

    So, let me get this straight. The Chinese Balloon was actually a flying Subway sandwich shop?

    If so, then yes.

    I think everyone had a subway (or McDs) friend like that. I'd get rung up as a single cookie. When the boss was around, I'd get a bunch of extra stamps.

    Yeah, older, soberer me can't stand subway anymore because of the smell. Starbucks is a close second.

    Agree Jersey Mike's is the best chain.

    I can't say that I ever stepped to a Starbucks coffee when wickedly stoned. Sounds terrible, and I love coffee
    Damn shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that

    Holy shit, I forgot all about the stamps.

    Homeboy would make it rain stamps when the manager wasn't around. No clue how that store made a single penny of profit.

    Govt or the banks pays for the infrastructure capital. Wage loading is the ticket for labour capital heavy businesses. Even with your buddy stealing 5% off the profits off a single purchase, his labour profit still provides enough for the ski chalet at whistler.

    Probably got some good intel for the $5-10K cost of this thing.

    We finally got it using a $137MM jet, a $300K missile and misc consumables.

    Yep

    Is that an early Kraftwerk soundtrack in the background?
