Hey! I used to work in that building. There wasn't a D. Brian's when I worked there. I don't remember which building it was in...
You know what else really grinds my gears? The pop bottle games. I don't want to log on and give you my email address and all my other info and get crap from you for forever or be a registered Yahoo! user. I miss the old pop bottle games where it just said what you won right on the inside of the cap. None of this codes shit.
I am the thread killer.
Voltron: There's a D. Briens on the skyway level in my building (US Bank Corp 800 Nicollet) and I had their breakfast burrito once and I wasn't impressed. Though I have a guilty pleasure and that is McDonalds breakfast burritos and nothing really matches up to those.

There are a few places that make bitchin' spicy hashy breakfasts and breakfast burriots in town, like the Highland Grill or the Louisiana Cafe. But you're right. There's something about those McDonald's breakfasts that can be SUPREMELY satisfying.
Oh yeah, buddy... That's it...
OH GOD!! OH GOOOOOOOOOD!!!

G.G.: I think you can still get enough to eat there but its not like it used to be. Used to be a fella could scoop up the deli-ham-and-lotsa-cheese omelet what with the sour cream, cheese, chives and what-not. Comes with toast and hashbrowns. That used to do the trick. Now the omelets are smaller and my intake capabilities have increased so I score the pancakes instead of toast and still manage to get my money's worth. Not a huge pancake guy but I hate walking out of a restaurant feeling less than stuffed to verge of borderline sickness. Its some sort of food-junkie thing I suppose. Thank God my metabolism is still clipping along pretty good. Keeps me from getting obese although I don't imagine its doing much to protect my arteries.

You guys must be huge fatasses. The last omelet I got there (two weeks ago) was at least three eggs plus the goodies, plus hash browns, toast and bacon.
I will confess - I've started ordering a Happy Meal at McDonald's and finding that to be PLENTY of food.

I'm six feet even and weigh 185 so, even though you probably couldn't bounce quarters off my ass (can you, Scobbs?), I'm not obese by any stretch. I also have two kids and, sure as I'm sitting here, a Happy Meal's no supper for a man. Can't feed a bird on a damn Happy Meal, Son.
You're going native, Josh. Get out of the house, away from the Spongebob episodes, and knock back some cheap beers with your bros, before its too late!
I'm asking you to trust me here; I've been where you are.
Let me help you help yourself.
Fear not, you will never run out of Hashbrown while I'm around. Hashbrown for all my friends!
Make it funky,
Hashbrown
D. Brian's All American Wrap is enough of a breakfast to make me skip lunch.
That said, I'm still furious about the hash brown issues there. The one I go to is in the Town Square portion of the DT StP skyway. I've since switched my business over to the Four Inns cafe, since they seem to always have the browns of hash ready for my famished satiation.
Man, that Flameburger in Columbia Heights, I used to go there twice a week and get pancakes and hashbrowns with cheese and onions, that was a good damn breakfast!
When I am at a show and I'm watching a band, not performing and I am very obviously paying attention to said band........and someone decides they want to start up a conversation with me. I'm not talking about a "wow, these guys are good" comment, I'm talking about a full blown conversation.
It happens all the time!! I start out nodding politely, then it moves to the universal shake of the head and point to the ears which should signify "I can't hear you" then it moves to me starring straight ahead, refusing to turn my head....which usually works, but on more than a few instances the person has actually stepped in front of me, just off to my right side usually for some reason, and continued to talk. I've actually had to walk away and miss a band I dig cuz of it a few times.
and NO, I don't want to see EVERY SINGLE PICTURE YOU'VE TAKEN OF THE BAND I"M WATCHING RIGHT AFTER YOU TAKE IT.
Oh Oh Oh, and this goes hand in hand with the gear grinding.........when these same people have ASS BREATH.
Going eastbound on Maryland Ave with the intention of taking a right to go south on 35E, and realizing you've pulled into the right turn lane that gets you onto L'Orient, also known as the world's stupidest frontage road. This will probably make no sense unless you've done it multiple times as I've done.
I can't tell you how many times I've done that over the past 4 years. As a matter of fact, I almost did that tonight. My girlfriend was like "No! you are going to turn down the wrong road again!"

MMMMMM Flameburger. 2 words. Ranch Breakfast That has to be the all time best consumption of grease after a night of drinking. Hashbrowns, eggs, bacon/sausage, toast, with a side of pancakes. The best (and worse) part of flameburger is you can still smell the grease on you 4 days later even after several showers. Reminding you of that wonderful breakfast that helped make your hangover go away.
I've done that a few times myself. It is really annoying! Another annoying thing that is at the next exit north of there (Wheelock/Larp) is right at the corner of Wheelock and the freeway exit (where the Liquor store and old BP are) is that no one will ever let you get out to the stop sign when leaving the parking lot of that liquor store. And usually, the majority of the people taking that exit don't see that there is a stop sign at the end of the exit. I can't count how many times I've almost been T-boned at that intersection.

So create a bullshit email account for spam. You can even use humor in the creation of the accountname like spamme@gmail.com or myspamaccount@yahoo.com and then whenever you need to enter an email address in somewhere, use that one instead of your real one.

You must try a breakfast burrito from Hardee's or Taco Johns. Unbelievable. I'm a fan of the WacArnold's breakfast burrito as well, but the aformentioned restaurants have a superior breakfast burrito. Otherwise, the breakfast burrito at the Triple Rock is pretty spectacular if you have time to sit through an hour of horse shite service.
Driving annoyances: (there's never enough threads for this!)
-People driving 50mph in a 70, middle lane. These fucks make me angry.
-When there are two turn lanes parallel to one another, and the person in the far turn lane cuts into the near turn lane during the turn. Prime example is going north on 61, turning onto Warner Road, heading west toward DTStP. Are you TRYING to create a demoliton derby?!
-Second all-time biggest pet peeve: Those who use the turn signals as if it was for THEM, not the rest of the road that turn signals were created FOR! It's there to tell ME where you're going - you already know where! I don't! So fucking use them appropriately!
-People that try to merge when you're boxed in from all directions...going the exact same speed you are. Um...either speed up or slow down there, Chucklefuck. You will lose the parallel wars, trust me. See your lane ending ahead? Yeah, that's cuz there's a bridge there. You v. Brick Wall = your fiery demise. So make a decision here, ok?
-Two footed drivers. Possibly the most absurd thing you can do in a car is to accelerate when you're foot's always on the brake. That's shit that will flunk you out of kindergarten. It's bad for the car, and even worse for the other drivers on the road!
-Parking brakes. 8 out of 10 times I forget the thing's on and drive a bit with it, till I start wondering why the performance of the car is off. D'oh! I don't use 'em much, but when I do I always fuck it up.
-The fact that lots of roads have both a county road name, and a street name. It's a little easier in the city, but out in BFE it pisses you off when the directions you have have a street name, but the signage is for it's other, perhaps more proper name. Just fucking name the road! The Metrodome isn't also called Sashimi. It's called the fucking Metrodome! That's why we call it that, cuz that's what it's goddamned named!
Previews on my DVD's. Save that bullshit for the theatres.

Not to come off as a know it all here, but the middle lane on a 3 lane freeway is designated for slower traffic. Those slow people are just following the rules. But I do agree with your point when it is a 2 lane freeway and ass-tards are goings 20 miles under the speed limit!
I also hate when the same asshole passes you like 30 times while on a long distance trip on the freeway. You'll have that one car that rides your tail for miles, then gets over and speeds up and rides the tail of the car in front of you. Then you pass that car because the driver is to stupid to realise he/she could have got over earlier to pass that used to be in front of you. Now that same asshole is behind you again getting close to your tail end. This repeats until either you or them exit the freeway. I-35 between burnsville and Albert Lea is a prime example of this every day!
Post moderation really grinds my gears!

So signs that say "slower traffic keep right" don't apply? I guess I fail to see how the middle lane is for slow traffic when there's an actual right lane.
