If it was the Donut Vault truck, then you definitely should have gotten donuts from them.

They are delicious.

Firecakes is also really good.

Here is a pic of my last order from Firecakes. The chocolate donuts are regular donut size.



EDIT: Ohhhhh poo poo, I've had Doughnut Vault. Their old-fashioned donuts are kickass.

Yes the best way to handle addiction is to go into the addiction thread in TCC, just please do not let yourself be distracted on the way by the hundreds of other threads talking about how much drugs and alcohol own.

I don't actually want to drink right now or even look at alcohol for the foreseeable future which is strange given that my first instinct when I was nervous about the interview was to drink most of a growler so maybe it is an addiction holy poo poo
