Donut deficiency
posted Thursday, February 07, 2008 - 06:16 PM (#40804)
In today's comic (the office [#21] [goats.com]) we see Jon bringing a tasty box of Darkle Donuts to the staff meeting. This has reminded me of my tragic lack of Dunkin' Donuts [dunkindonuts.com] in my lifestyle-- for six years i've been living as a Bellinghamster [google.com] about a hundred miles away from their nearest location. The horror! Oh, how i suffer for want of a Maple Creme, or Powdered Jelly, or marzipan-stuffed Croissants!!

(There is a Krispy Kreme outlet about forty miles away, but that's just not even close to the same category of gastronomic ecstasy. Piffle.)

Do you love fresh pastries? Do you love the person who brings them to the board meetings? Do you love the ridiculous color schemes on their packaging? Are they responsible for your man-boobs (or your protrusive ACB [urbandictionary.com])?

Would you travel throughout the universe in search of some Dunkin's Jelly Creme-filled?


POLL: Which confection do you most desire?
 
0% (0) Darkle Donuts
 
36% (7) Dunkin' Donuts
 
26% (5) Krispy Kreme

10% (2) Mister Donut
 
10% (2) I'm a snooty European who'd never dally with such lowbrow desserts
 
0% (0) I'm from a country/ culture/ dimension/ axis-pub/ where we don't even have such a thing as a 'donut'
 
15% (3) These confectionery options need more sausage

I have exactly the opposite problem right now.

I am working in an area in which there is roughly one Dunkin' Donuts in every square mile.

It's painful.

Thanks for the reminder, Kevvo.

Thanks for the Rick Roll. There go five minutes of my life which i'll never get back >_<

[But it did remind me of all that time doing homework during high school in the mid-1980s while mediocre VH1 burbled in the background.]

I remember Dunkin' Donuts from way back when (about '79) when I visited Chicago. Still got the DD mug somewhere at Mums.
Many years later, I found a DD's in Londinium and I thought great...

... ten minutes later *blugh*! I'm sticking to the kolbasz.

You forgot the Canadian interlopers - Tim Horton's seem to be sprouting up all over the place around me...

Did you hear the joke [google.com] about Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister and the United States of America's Secretary of State having a photo-op in Tim Horton's?

That's it. That's the whole joke.

There HAS to be a way to work a 'Timbits' reference in there somewhere...
