I've never had In-n-Out, but the Five Guys near me is gross. The burgers are so greasy that the bun is basically paste by the time I get to the table.

So, yeah, Hawkguy knows what it's about.

Their fries are good though, I only get a small plain burger anyway so the bun isn't that greasy.

Five Guys is not standardized the way most fast food burgers are, so some locations are better and others are worse. I suspect this to be part of a promotional strategy to get people to argue about it on the internet.

Doubly so because when Superman did it, he spent the entire time being an rear end in a top hat to everyone he encountered.

I'd like a Darkseid companion to Superman: Grounded where Darkseid just stays one town behind Superman complete undoing any bit of good Superman actually does. Like when Superman burns down the drug dealers' houses (one of like two scenes I remember from Grounded), Darkseid comes in the next day and boom tubes in some parademons to rebuild the houses. Superman stops a bank robbery in a town then the next day Darkseid just levels the place.

A thousand times this. I've had In-n-out its really nothing to write home about at all, if you're in Austin go get P Terry's, or Mighty Fine or Casino El Camino. Whoever thinks shoe string fries are great with a burger are heretics and should be burned thusly. Whataburger is delicious for when you're done drinking at any point of the day or night. :colbert: Comedy option of Fudruckers supremacy. One still exists in my town.

In-n-Out is exciting because it's an amazing burger for $3. There are plenty of places in SoCal to get a better burger in the $9-$10 range.

Also nobody likes In-N-Out fries, you have to get them well done to even remotely find them acceptable.

Being from the UK I've only ever seen the "five guys", and to me their restaurants never look as good as GBK. They also do fantastic skinny fries, which is always a plus.

Look, no offense, but a general rule is that if food comes from the UK, it's not as good as regular food. Chef Ramsey is only internationally famous because he's the first Brit who can cook properly.

I mean, if we're being all subjective about it every bit of American food I've had is garbage, but that probably because it's mostly lovely fast food that we get here. Though I've tried American cheese and Chocolate too and those were both loving awful, when I visited America we mostly ate stuff like steak and lobster and other fancy foods, or like Chinese food and such.

The Chinese food in America is pretty good, I seem to remember, though we couldn't find a decent curry or any kind of Indian food at all in the US, that alone makes it bottom of the barrel in the world stakes all on it's own if you ask me. We also couldn't really find a chippy, but I hesitate to refer to chippy food as good in any real sense of the world.

Oh yeah, the Five Guys in Glasgow is pretty divisive. A lot of people say it's amazing, but I thought it was kinda lovely, and I know a few other people who say the same. Like, If I wanted a poo poo burger I'd go to a Wetherspoons or something and it would only cost half as much.

You mean Heston? The guy who came up with Snail Icecream? He is pretty fantastic. But if any of you guys find yourselves over here try Gormet Burger Kitchen (GBK) the fires are amazing.

Also, show me a decent pie that America has come up with. Or a good Curry (sure we stole most of that, but Chicken Tikka Masala is all ours). Or a halfway decent ale.

Where were you in America? West Coast at least has tons of great Indian. And don't call the American fast food that opens in Europe, American food, that'd be like us calling Olive Garden Italian.

I got a letter from the government the other day
opened it, read it
it said they was bitches




The rest of it is exactly the same thing. Innocent people are minding their own business, when suddenly the elf with a gun shows up and they die. No deeper motivation, no overarching story behind it, just an elf with a gun.

quote:

(Defenders I#25) - The Elf appeared at the California mobile home of Tom and Linda Pritchett, called Tom by name, pulled out a gun, and blew him away.

(Defenders I#31) - The Elf appeared in Las Vegas, posing as a taxicab driver for Charles Lester and his wife. Suddenly, the cab driver's head popped off and out jumped the Elf. When the husband asked, "What is this?", the Elf replied, "It's 'Goodbye,' Charles." and then blew him away.

(Defenders I#38) - In the Grand Canyon, the Elf, dressed as an ancient American Indian, was encountered by Stu and his girlfriend. Stu figured the shaman would impart some ancient wisdom to him. Revealing himself, the Elf told him that he would indeed be wiser for this experience, and then blew him away.

(Defenders I#40) - In a unidentified city in the American Southwest, an Elf showed up in the Ladies' Room, where he blew away a woman, who had fled there to escape the Hulk.

(Defenders I#46) - Outside a house in upstate New York, owned by Kyle Richmond, the Elf prepared to ambush Greg, a paper boy. However, as he drew his gun, he was run over by a truck from Mac-Ray Moving Company.

That's the elf with a gun's entire plotline.

quote:

In interviews, Gerber would reveal that the Elf was nothing more than a backhanded metaphor for the chaotic and inexplicable nature of everyday existence, the “beast in the jungle” that you can spend a lifetime planning for but which still comes as a surprise or maybe never comes at all.
