The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

Next newest hot IP: Naked Lunch, the game where you rub drugs on a bug!

You can't rewrite, 'cause to rewrite is to deceive and lie, and you betray your own thoughts. To rethink the flow and the rhythm, the tumbling out of the words, is a betrayal, and it's a sin, dragoner, it's a sin.

I thought there might be a gif out there even, and then was like nah...

I suppose it would make more sense than having an RPG based on Burroughs' cut ups; we'd just cut random rules from other RPGs and see what we get?

What are the "really popular successful things" that also "have a really good product"?

McDonald's (3.5 x bigger than #2), Dominoes/Pizza Hut (1.7x #3), Taco Bell (2x #2), Panda Express (5x #2) all seem meh at best.

Think of popularity on a smaller scale. For example, I'm from south central Wisconsin where we have a much better option than McDonalds - Culvers. If you haven't had a chance to experience one yet, keep an eye out. They're regionally popular and their product is far and away better than McD.

In Chicken, you have Chick-Fil-A (which is at least better than what the burger places serve), but is still (2x #2) and hardly Popeye's or Bojangles.

Chick-Fil-A has a certain amount of administrative skill - when I would go to GenCon, they were consistently the only food place in the mall's food court that was ever ready for the big rush. But there's no way in hell I'm going to give them my custom so I can't even speak to the quality of their chicken.

Are Krispy Kreme and Dunkin' Donuts good donuts?

Krispy Kreme donuts are terrible as far as I'm concerned. And Dunkin' was better in my youthful memories than it is now. We've got local options much better than either. I'll hit them any time.

CFA is amazing at customer service and administration front-of-house. They're super friendly and will accommodate even extraneous requests. It almost makes up for the fact that they're an American company and exploits their employees as best they can while also funding very dubious organizations.

And no, I'm not allergic to peanuts!

Im in freezy freezy Minneapolis and can confirm that Culvers is top notch fast food. As for CFA, I dont go there because its just not that good.

Ohhh, got beard crystals from clearing snow just now brrrr

You did find a gif! heh

Cut up rules from other rpgs sounds way better than playing William Tell with a grape ... or maybe that's the boss fight, against yourself in a mirror.

We travel up to Northern WI every summer (picking up my folks on the way, and my Mom loves Culvers).

How about really good products that failed miserably, because people can't math? Like A&W's 1/3 pound burger. People bought McD's over A&W because, "1/3 of a pound is less than 1/4 of a pound, because 4 is bigger than 3." Seriously.
