Leftists can be so cute sometimes

Have you ever considered that maybe there might not be political motivations to trying to keep your business afloat? Surely you aren't denying that under the new law Papa John's is required to pay for expensive medical insurance for full time employees.

Yeah, the CEO of Papa John's won't be able to get a second drawbridge in for his castle, because of the expenses he may incur with the health care reform.

Doesn't that eliminate the incentive to found the next Papa John's? Who want to own a castle without a second drawbridge?

The wealthy have it so hard, gribbler.

Low brow taste in a low brow city.

**** like this just makes your insane hatred of NYC even more ridiculous. It's like you said "Hey NYC is known for having great pizza. Well to spite them I'm going to like something that is vastly inferior"

To understand regexcellent's hatred of NYC, you need to have a deeper understanding of the fact that Upstate New York resembles New York City almost as much as rural Alabama does. Now take a look at how many representatives in Albany Rochester gets and how many NYC gets.

I meant to mention Erie! I've stayed in hotels there a few times. Truly depressiong. Not unlike Joliet.
Although I did find a great sandwich chain there - Schlotzky's.

Schlotzky's is nation wide. We even have them out here.

I've only been to NYC once that I can remember (last summer) and I had pizza there, and it was good. But where I am now, Papa John's is pretty good for something I can get on short notice.

I don't like NYC because I wouldn't want to live there (too crowded) and also what HC said.

Sour grapes over having a Democratic majority in his state? Boo hoo.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Clearly upstate New York needs to secede from New York.

[regexcellent]

It's not the democratic majority. It's that there's all sorts of bull**** that people in NYC support that makes no sense, which is completely unpopular everywhere else in the state. Like gun control, for instance. If that stuff just stayed in NYC, fine, whatever, not my problem.

Reg - now you know how I felt about Vancouver. GVRD is to British Columbia as NYC is to the state. I feel your pain.

[regexcellent]

I'm glad to hear that you feel pain.

Makes sense. People in NYC must be insane given that they seem to want the government to tell them what they can and can't eat.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

It is kind of comforting to discover he might just be a higher vertebrate after all, isn't it?

[Hauldren Collider]

I think he might have also been going for the "I like the fact that Ben can be miserable" angle.

[DinoDoc]

Makes sense. People in NYC must be insane given that they seem to want the government to tell them what they can and can't eat.

I look at it as a statement that NYC must be paradise on earth and populated by angels if the most important thing the mayor has to concern himself with is Big Gulps and salt content in food donations to homeless shelters.
