And furthermore, if you decided to take that shot, and were faced with either borrowing more or running a crowd funding campaign, would you not see any value in the fact that failing a kickstarter still builds publicity that succeeding at a bank does not?

Read up to here so far, and holy poo poo. I mean, god drat. If you actually believe this then you have your head so far up your own rear end that the shining light you are somehow seeing after failing a kickstarter is actually leaking in from... your dick.. or something.

Dude... I'm kinda rooting for you here, but jesus there's no way to put a positive spin on a failed crowd funding campaign.

Ok back to the thread.

ur going to fail because you dont think ur going to fail and take it as a personal offense when people point out ridiculously obvious reasons why ur overwhelmingly likely to fail, and its a pretty bad sign when ur ego not only outstrips ur competence but then drives donuts around ur capacity to accept anything but positive feedback

every failed restaurant had a business plan reviewed by 'non morons' and were approved for loans and still went tits up. ull just be another in the line because uve already decided this is what ur going to do (if strangers on a web forum would just kindly help u with what the non morons at the bank wouldnt touch with a tinikling pole)

When i was in a nursing home for 3 months I got in good with the Filipinos.

The secret is to talk to them, I even had my friend teach me some Tagalog.

I dont know how to spell it but he gave me

Magalikan tayo = good morning

Sasapaling Kita = thank you

What those really mean is

"lets make out"

and

"I am gonna slap you"


me and staff all had a good laugh about it.

What a wild ride, I learned a lot. I was around when this was first posted and thought it would just slide on down to posting heck but I was wrong and am glad of it. I hope OP realizes he's not cut out for this sort of thing and makes a funny video, it would be the opposite of doobie and our lives would be that much more improved by it.

Those are my thoughts thanks for reading them God bless

I know we've been joking around a lot, OP, but here's some real advice:

Wait until you really can run at a loss for a year or two, because you will. This is true for pretty much every restaurant starting up.

Also, shave that horrible pube beard or else customers will start puking even before they actually taste your food

I think op should have to wear a Royals hat for a week while serving the food, but then again I don't know if people in Toronto give enough of a poo poo for that to be funny.

If I’ve learned anything from my experiences building this business, it’s that you really never know when something amazing is about to happen. Who knew growing up eating eggs and spam for breakfast with my mom and dad that it would cultivate a love for food and cooking that would last a lifetime? Who knew when I signed up for Tinder that I would find the man and business partner of my dreams?

seems weird to include in your kickstarter text?

Given the pictures of their food I don't see how that would work. How about hotdog infused filipino food instead? He could mash up a hotdog and add it to the filling for the spring rolls.
