Captain Invictus is one of the wrongest people in the world, and there's some wrrrrooooong people out there. Papa Ginos is the best. Whenever I'm in New England it's my first and my last stop. I will literally fight you over this. Edit: Papa Ginos aint Papa Johns. Yes, Papa Johns is pretty trash. Papa Ginos is a New England only chain and it literally defines what good pizza is. All pizza is measured in terms it's variation from the Papa Ginos standard. Edit2: Did you throw this out there just because you know there are a lot of people who feel strongly for Ginos and you knew saying this would drive somebody mad?

Meanwhile, ten bucks gets you an 18" hot and ready pepperoni, cheese, or supreme pizza at costco, and it's always good. Never disappoints. Plus you can get some fantastic berry smoothies to go with it for a buck 25 each, and their new brisket sandwich is loving great if a bit expensive(for costco).

Shimrra Jamaane posted:I know Jimmy Johns bases itself on super fast delivery but how the gently caress does that work? Didn't places like Dominos get in big trouble in the 80s because their promised fast delivery times resulted in tons of car accidents? Part of it is the sandwich assembly line is built for speed. It's set up so that most of the time you can finish someone's order before they even get their wallet out to pay for it. It takes seconds. It's why they only serve cold sandwiches and you have to start your order with one of the numbered sandwiches instead of building ala carte. There is a rote procedure for absolutely everything. They have incentive programs for fast delivery, and will encourage their drivers to be as fast as possible while protecting themselves by never explicitly telling you to break driving laws. But yeah, many of the drivers are reckless and speed because that's the only way to make the deliveries on time. Jimmy Johns are also crazy about cleanliness, and every inch of the store (including the tile grout underneath the equipment) is cleaned every week. So if you ever worry about restaurant cleanliness that's the one good thing about the stores. The bread is pretty good, and their cookies too at least. Also yeah, the CEO is a jerk.

I'd like to interrupt the sandwich talk briefly to laugh at these Trumpeters:quote:ROTT: Williams has applauded Trump's plans to repeal Obama-era regulations on the coal industry, but he also knows that there are factors Trump can't change. He can't change the energy market. quote:MANNIX: We can put up with all the pollution, and they get the gravy. And this went on for 40 years. And we took it. We ran with it. We made it successful. And now these prima donnas out there can just walk away. Well, no - pay your way out of it now. http://www.npr.org/2017/06/01/531099076/montana-town-exemplifies-coal-countrys-uncertain-future tl: dr Montana Trumpsters think Trump will bring back coals jobs to their lovely little town, but also seem to realize that natural gas is also killing coal. But they're also angry that Oregon and Washington, which used to be the coal company's biggest customers, don't want coal anymore, and the Trumpsters insist that they should be propping up their lovely industry. Sounds like entitlement to me... Also, Subway is loving awful. Shame that Quizno's went out of business. Now there was a REAL man's sandwich shop!

Phyein posted:Roy rogers still exists, albut only at interstate rest stops. I occassionally go to them when im bored and miserable... theres something peaceful about a rest stop espicially on a tol higheay because its close to home but isolated at the same time because only long travellers go to them. They feel like a whole nother world. I've heard that East of the Mississippi (I hope that is a neutral term), interstate rest stops have fast food restaurants and stuff? In the Western United States, all they have is bathrooms, drinking fountains, picnic tables, sometimes flyers of tourist attractions. Sometimes people make coffee which they give away for donations. This isn't totally irrelevant to the thread, because I am learning about Trump's mindset, about a world where everything is commercialized and tacky, and where of course a rest area has a bunch of cheesy chain restaurants. The idea that a rest area could just be some trees and picnic tables is probably something that Trump couldn't understand. In fact, has Donald Trump ever had any record of being in a natural area? I mean, like most people from the East Coast, he probably doesn't even understand such a concept exists, and then on top of that, the idea of him coming up against something that is just nature, that isn't a social reality where he could stroke his ego, probably just doesn't compute.

Mr Interweb posted:I'd like to interrupt the sandwich talk briefly to laugh at these Trumpeters: This article is confused. This article is people in the Eastern United States who have never been further than Pennsylvania, who think that the entire Western United States looks like rural Pennsylvania, and who are trying to figure it out based on that. Oregon and Washington never used much coal power, Oregon and Washington had plentiful hydroelectric power coming from rivers. Coal mining was not a major industry in Montana: Montana's history is based around copper mining, if anything. The county that Colstrip, Montana is in had a maximum population of 10,000 people, which even by Montana standards is small. Compare that to Silver Bow County (Butte), which at its peak had 25% of Montana's population. Contrary to the narrative about coal miners loving Trump, Silver Bow County has voted Democratic in every election in its history, with I think the exception of Nixon in 1972. But because the narrative is about environmentalist hating coal miners, Montana has to be about that, too. glowing-fish fucked around with this message at 06:55 on Jun 3, 2017 |

The vast majority of rest stops I've been to through the southeast & up through Ohio have been lovely little buildings with vending machines.

There are fast food rest stops along the eastern highway because it is a high traffic area over a long stretch and people eventually will get hungry or want some coffee, you see the unmanned bathrooms and picnic tables there because there isn't enough traffic to have restaurants on those roads.

glowing-fish posted:I've heard that East of the Mississippi (I hope that is a neutral term), interstate rest stops have fast food restaurants and stuff? You're right: New York City runs west to St Louis, its westernmost suburb. The last tree on the great Atlantic floodplain was felled in 1973, in the borough of Minneapolis. New York, in addition to being completely flat and entirely below sea level, has no state parks or forested areas. And of course there are no interstate rest stops without chain restaurants and big neon signs. And there are definitely no such structures dotting the highways of any states west of the Mississippi River, like the mountainless kingdom of Oregon, which I have only heard stories of thirdhand from weary travelers, because it's too much goddamn trouble for me to google something or read loving wikipedia before speculating about different parts of my own country like I'm a 14th-century English philosopher imagining what it must be like in China. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rest_area

Hydroelectric power of course was invented in 1750 by the duke of Seattle, who guarded the secret with his life until it was stolen by the high priests of Oregon's northernmost island. Coal never had any use to them after that. Journalists would never fact-check a story, because there's obviously no way to learn about the past or any place you haven't personally visited.

One that is not how correlations work. Two even if it did you hardly have a rigorous definition for "prevalance of fast food" or "lack of nature". For that matter there are a lot more parks and nature preserves then you know of apparently. For instance, Tennessee has the goddamn Smokys.
