Then it would be horribly cruel to you to suggest Beth’s Cafe here in Seattle–home of the twelve egg omelette that kicked Adam “Man vs. Food” Richman’s butt handily? Seriously, if you’ve never been there, you should make a trip just to check it out–they even give you crayons and blank paper so you can color and doodle while waiting for your food. (Sound like your kind of place?)

Of course, Seattle is also home to [dramatic music] Archie McPhee’s!

(Good thing I’m True Neutral instead of Chaotic Evil, or a certain webcomic artist would be in serious trouble, right? -_^)

If I’m ever lucky enough to get down to San Francisco, I’ll have to get a burger or two there. Sounds pretty good, actually.

And, since you folks were kind enough to recommend a good local burger joint (no pun intended) your way, let me return the favor: if you’re ever in Seattle, you HAVE to stop by Dick’s Drive-In for cheeseburgers and fries. An “order” of fries at Dick’s is a massive pile of about half a pound of delightfully salty potato strips, and they keep their prices as cheap as possible so college students can afford to eat there. Definitely worth the trip!

I realize that In-N-Out is a Christian company, but they’re not as wacky as Chick-Fil-A in that regard.  I’d like to think that In-N-Out is more like true Christianity (loving everyone, wanting to make the world a better place – even the bible quotes they hide on their packaging have to do with the food that comes in said packaging) while Chick-Fil-A is rather fundamentalist in their ways (no working on the Sabbath, having a history of being against gay rights, reaching out to conservative/moral groups, etc.).

Like, I can’t recall any times where In-N-Out helped fund anti-gay-marriage initiatives or helped market movies about “the real threat to families” or the like (and a quick Google search doesn’t find anything specifically linking In-N-Out to either side of the gay rights debate), while it’s very easy to find examples of Chick-Fil-A actively seeking to encourage the anti-gay viewpoint, if not actively suppressing gay rights themselves.

Dentistry? No. Proctology, on the other hand…

I love Krispy Kreme!
So better buy another dozen, baby!
I love Krispy Kreme!
So better light the sign, they’re fresh hot now!

(Second choice for today would be “My Dentist’s A Hamster” to the tune of “I’m In Love With A Stripper” by T-Pain)
