I remember a time when poo poo like this would have been an instant ban. That was before Ozma ate all the cheeseburgers and collapsed into herself to form rogue black hole. A fine state of affairs this is.

Umm... the OP isn't begging. He's inviting us to join him and his fiancee in an exciting business opportunity. It's another opportunity for us to affect real change! Goon generosity never ceases to amaze me.... weather it's buying life jackets for our boys in uniform over there, of building houses for hurrican katrina victims, or buying pants for that one guy in LF!

OP I got some questions but watch out, a few of these are real ZINGERS!

1. What is your favorite spring roll filling? Mine is mac n' cheese
2. You met your fiancee on imgur, the online image hosting website, can you tell me how I can go about finding my true love on imgur? For reference I'm in my 30s, my apperance is unsettling to women, and my family is dead.
3. Will you be offering Mac n' Cheese on your menu?

If there's one thing you should keep in mind when visiting Kensington, it's that there is no local Starbuck's. This is a very friendly but very protected enclave where vegan cran-apple muffins take the place of Big Macs and anyone who so much as says the words "double mocha venti" might get into trouble if the wrong people are listening. While it can be a great place to bring the kids and spend a day exploring the world, this is not a shopping mall. It's gritty, it's real, and it's organic.

lol

haha yeah gritty is a good description of cran apple muffins! No wife I don't care if their good for me i just want so oreos! WOMEN!

Maybe you'll be like Seven Lives and make a butt load of money selling super on trend food (seafood tacos! Something Toronto had never seen before)

Or maybe it'll be like 75% of the places that open in the market that are just a bit off the mark with their trend predictions and forget that Toronto is a conservative, provincial city that loves safe consistent food options.

But good luck to you. It's hard work. If it takes off it could really take off, eh?

I'll say that I've never tried Filipino food but your descriptions make me want to give it a shot. Maybe it's something that needs to be explained.

PS once you're up and running PM me and I might be able to hook you up with some morning show producers for a segment (maybe, no promises)

I assume you do this already, being a goon and all, but it would be really cool if you could sneak in some goon refrences on the sly..... let any SA-goon listeners out there know whats up..... get the goonmunity on board!!

i see you're active in the toronto thread but i didnt look thru all the posts, have you invited toronto goons over for free samples yet? if not u definitely should, because they seem supportive of u and the best way to not look like a bum when asking for money is to give something of value first, and to a well targeted audience so you're shooting fish in a barrel instead of casting a wide net over the plastic trashflats of manila bay.

also im not actually this much of a oval office i just thought it would be fun to combine shitposting with roleplaying a Shark Tank investor. which turned out to be very cuntish. but you're an excellent writer and kinda look like tony romo and thats cute. anyway good luck and do whatever it takes to make ur fiancee happy and proud to be a part of yalls (hopefully) long venture :j:
