TC the Terrible

One of the major drawbacks to living in DC is the lack of quality fast food. The usual chains are here (McD’s BK, Wendy’s) but that’s really about it. For us first generation latch-key kids burger chains were a mainstay of our diets growing up. I think being from the Deep Dirty South makes the situation even worse.

The “Big Two” that I miss the most are Krystal and Sonic. If I ever hit the lottery my plan is to open one of each on opposing street corners. Krystal burgers are what Yankees would call a “White Castle”. I’ve eaten my share of both and the Krystal is by far the better tasting. Often called “rat burgers” or “gut bombs” they are the perfect food for capping off a long night of drinking and whore chasing.

Sonic is a bit more refinded, if you consider eating in your car refined. The claim to fame for Sonic is their Route 44 (44 ounces tall) Cherry Lime-Aide (comes as a slush too) and tater tots. I could spend a week’s pay on just those two items. The burgers are good, but not good like a Five Guys burger. Go for the tots, that’s reason enough to pull in.

Why am I telling you all of this? So you’ll understand exactly how cruel my buddy CZ is. He’s traveling this week and send me this picutre.

Let’s just say that THE WOMAN did not see the humor in my post yesterday about who makes the rules. She didn’t deny the truth of the t-shirt pictured. She got pissed that I posted it.

On the way in this morning our local shock-jock Stern wanna be was raging on about the greatness of the World Cup. Which brings me back to the question that I asked last week, who really gives a crap about soccer in the US? I mean it’s got a fan base smaller than hockey. And thanks to DCUniverse for doing the best article yet on why the NHL is a non-factor in modern sports. And the ‘Canes may have won the Stanley Cup but Ric Flair is still a bigger star in Charlotte, NC. That should tell you how deep in the crapper hockey is.

It would be interesting to see what the Nielsen ratings were Monday night. With the Stanley Cup at stake, World Cup coverage in full swing, and WWF Raw all at the same time, which one drew the highest rating?

FDFM is in town for a few days and that is going well so far. FDSM had BOYFRIEND over last night to watch movies with the family. Look up Wus in Webster’s and you’ll see a picture of this kid, along with his bio. It really is that bad.
