Some of these guys could pack away some serious food! And I thought Badmike loved bacon double cheeseburgers.

King, I am glad you are back to spending your time productively. :wink:

I loved the Diet Coke one. Like it freaking matters...

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Heh, I like the ones who ordered something and then refused it. Or, did not get what they wanted, like the guy who asked for bubble gum and couldn't have it. Classic.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

Getting paid for sitting at a desk and listening to people complain....can't think of anything better. Except maybe blowing shit up. :wink:

The third largest city is named Moose Jaw, so maybe it is. :lol:

Ah, Saskatchewan... Where you can watch your dog run away for three days. :lol:

I remember Moncton roads; I refuse to believe they actually do any paving.

They have pavement in Moncton? Paving? Bah. Gravel at best.

I refuse to believe this clearly outrageous claim and demand evidence. :lol:

I once thought that I would eat pretty much anything with bacon in it. Now I realize how wrong I was.

I'm sure Badmike will give it a try. Let us know how it tastes eh Mike? :puker:

Took me a second and I was tipped off by a few other things but this is definitely an April Fools joke. Had to be....no one is that sick.

Mmmm . . . bacon . . . *drools*

Potted meat is wet and squishy at room temperature . . . why not process bacon so it's a paste?
