Look for coupons. Arby's gives out plenty of coupons, or at least I get them. I only go there if I have coupons for buy 1 get 1 free.

 

[El ASESINO]

I will check it out

Anyone been to the peanut butter and company in the village?

 

[hey yo its sean]

I just found out right now what Arby's is

It looks expensive

Only in New York. West Coast Arby's gets you 5 reg. roast beef sandwiches for $6. I'd be lucky to get two for that much in NY.

They periodically do a 5 for 5 Arby's Melt deal. Probably the greatest and most delicious food deal ever made. I'd be willing to kill to make that an all-the-time sorta thing.

Their roast beef sandwiches are pretty good, but I personally never get them knowing that the Melt is so insanely better. Something about the way their cheddar sauce goes with their roast beef makes it a hundred times better than the sum of its parts.

 

[Abaddon]

I remember going to Arby's once when I was a kid and hating some nasty roast beef crap sandwich. Haven't been since, but the commericals make their stuff look sexy.

 

[NDX]

I usually get the trukey ruben, unless I'm in the mood for roast beef then get 2 melts.

Kid's have terrible taste. At least half the times I've had sex, I'd have traded it for 5 Arby's melts if given the choice.

 

[Abaddon]

That makes sense somehow.

 

[Calvin]

I'd agree to not having another girlfriend for 3 years if god or whatever could make it so that the 5 for 5 deal was year round for those three years.

I think I've only seen Dogma out of that group.

 

[House Of M]

Dogma alone?... who cares... still a good excuse to get drunk and party with friends.

 

[House Of M]

Speaking of which....

Did you see all the stuff that's going on around the city for "Spider-Man Week?"

It's pretty ridiculous.... I'm half expecting a city mandate on all homeless people herded like cattle and branded with a Spidey logo.

I actually plan to get about as drunk at the Central Park Zoo coloring my own spiderman mask or whatever, as I do at the Kevin Smith fest....

Join me, won't you?

 

[Abaddon]

Sounds interesting.


Meanwhile, I hate how the past few days have given a nice illusion that the weather is nice, but is actually ****ing cold and windy.

Has he stabilized yet? At first I thought he was gonna die from his injuries and then it'd be all Imus's fault.

 

[Abaddon]

I think he's stable, but still in pretty bad shape.

 

[Abaddon]

well I ran into one of those guys in the city who offer jobs to young people. They're pretty sneaky, and the guy caught me completely off-guard, but I just gave him a fake name and said sure. The sad part is, I'll probably end up regretting it like two months from now.

 

[NDX]

Job? What?

 

[Abaddon]

yea, something about customer service representatives for some new broadband thing.

 

[NDX]

Probably tricking you to get raped by some sercret sect. You're lucky.

 

[Abaddon]

he seemed friendly.

 

[NDX]

They always do.

 

[Abaddon]

free comic book day, woot!

 

[Calvin]

Adios, big apple.
