Why did the sandwich make the napkin wet....? I thought the advantage of the sandwich was in part....its dryness on the outside

Must I explain everything?

I need to fly you all to the States so we can have lunch together at this place. LFC will pay.

The food is good, that's why I go there. But it's made quickly, it's a very busy place. So they will pull a warm sandwich right out of the press and place it on the plate. It's steaming hot so the steam gets the napkin a little moist, or a little of the contents spill out on the napkin. Or a cold sandwich will get put on the plate, and the moisture from lettuce or a tomato, etc will get the napkin wet if they are not set properly inside the sandwich. And the apples are always fresh, but they must grab them from a container that has water in it because the apples are always slightly wet when they get put directly on a napkin. Etc.

But the manager set me straight.

He told me I could get some clean dry napkins (and there he goes again, pointing, with a sarcastic smile on his face) "right...over...there Soxfan. Off you go!"

I'm going to take a photo of my plate the next time I go, just so you all can see and agree that I am a 100% rational, sane, intelligent person who does not need many years of therapy.

Panera bread always forgets my bowl when I order the chicken or chilli bowl. Constantly. Every time. Stopped going there.

No I get takeaway. They put the chilli or chicken soup ina plastic container and then always forget the bread bowl.

Honestly mate save yourself the stress next time and grab a couple of napkins before you order

Nope. The woman from Asda admitted that a customer had walked about the store with a leaking 4 pt milk and that the Asda aides had only cleaned two aisles and not checked elsewhere.

Udder laziness.

The fact you need to speak to about 8 different people in 4 different places over 3 hours to get an emergency prescription, even if you have the documentation.

Open plan offices. Get to fuck with that shite.

Also went out on my bike before and in the space of a few minutes I almost get attacked by two dogs. A woman with a Pitbull type had it off its lead and it proceeded to jump up at me and try and bite me fucking arm off. Then a small woman walking a massive Saint Bernard (which was on a lead) is coming round the corner and the big fucker attempts to chase me. Seeing her try and reign this behemoth in when it was dragging her along was funny but also terrifying. I've seen Cujo and there is no chance that bastard was getting me. So the moral of the story is if you have a misbehaving dog keep it on its lead and if you're tiny don't get a dog that is twice your size.

It's probably been said 20 different times in this thread by someone, but slow drivers in the high-speed lane. I drove 45,000 miles on my job last year. I must see 10 idiots a day doing this. Follow the rules!

I know it’s from a few months ago but I drove my bro in laws car back from town earlier as he is I’ll. it’s a Focus ST. Decent bit of speed so I thought I’ll get use out of it as I leave the bottom of Edge Lane past the Rocket into the 62.
Get into the right lane about to get past the M62 sign and the woman in front in a Honda Jazz still carries on doing 40mph with the middle and left lane free. I beep, I flash. She doesn’t move for about 10 seconds.
Finally does, we had crept up from the 40 limit to about 60mph. Felt deflated at that point. No 40-70 in 3rd gear for me. Sat at 60mph in 6th haha

The amount of idiots getting onto the M62 at the bottom of Edge Lane is ridiculous. People lose their minds on the motorway.

I reckon a good 50% of people who drive on the motorway have absolutely fuck all idea what they are doing.

It should be a legal requirement to take a min of 5 hours of lessons on the motorway, even if it is not part of the driving test.

Couldn't agree more.
When my lad passed his test i felt comfortable when he was driving..until he done some driving on the motorway.
When someone changes lanes too fast @ 70mph it puts the shits up you,defo needs to be a legal requirement.

I agree, motorway driving should be mandatory as part of lessons and you must do it before being allowed to take the test. My first time on the M57 was in pissing rain it was scary as fuck.
