I should've found 10 strangers became their friend and then the next day deleted them all for the burger.

You notice how I said, "should've" ? Yes, I should've done that instead of what I really did. Damn, my mom is still mad at me.

Shhhh...the voices in my head will hear you! Besides...they didn't say they had to be real friends did they! I mean after all...they've been with me for years...so they are kinda friends! Well..were. Man...the silence in my head is deafening!

LOL! Ya' ll nuts!

If Pizza hut had pulled this....??..  

I just wrote to 'Hungry Jacks' (Oz's version of Burger King) to see if they'd do the same or better deal here... there's quite a few bankers I'd just LOVE to delete; one or two (dozen) politicians; a lawyer or three, and a couple of ex-wives... not to mention the ex-mother-in-laws.

Shoot, if they take it up, I may never have to buy groceries again... tho I'd probably end up with an Elvis... I mean a cholesterol problem and a waistline only the park railings 'd go around....

Wait a minute, what am I saying!  I already have a waistline that Columbus would've had to take extra fresh water and supplies to circumnavigate.

So, if they take it up and I don't have to buy groceries again, does this mean I have to give up curried cabbage?  No, of course not... I shall have them add a curried cabbage burger (with the lot) to the menu.  Yup, we could call it the 'Pirate Burger' and have all sorts of dirt cheap kiddie give-aways, like cardboard pirate hats, to get the punters into the restaraunts.

Yeah, I know, it's shameful, using kids and nasty gimmicks to get parents into Hungry Jacks to buy burgers, but it is pure marketing genius and a sure fire way to make money... I mean, parents are gonna get their kids this junk just to prevent public tantrums and the like.  Nope, nothing wrong with that... not if I'm getiing in on the ground floor at Hungry Jacks, and get a few shares for helping to boost sales.

Seriously, though, Burger King ought to be ashamed of thremselves for using such a 'low act' publicity stunt to boost sales and profits.

Curried cabbage?  I've never had it, and I'm a lover of curry!  Well you know how Burger King does thse campaigns trying to outsell their competitors, especially to say that they did it first!

It's easy enough to do... just boil up your cabbage as usual and drain off most of the water just prior to being done (leave a little to reduce sticking), then add a teaspoon of curry powder (more if you like), a dollop of sour cream or plain yoghurt and stir well 'til mixed through.  It goes great with roast pork and all the trimmings.. any roast, really.

Although I introduced curried cabbage as a 'flatulence' joke some time ago in the 'Joe User, Joke User' thread I actually quite enjoy it... whether or not it produces the copious amounts of methane claimed in my posts.

As for Burger King, they ought to be darned ashamed of themselves for even thinking such a perverse scheme to boost sales, much less implementing it.  I despise greed, and what Burger King did equates to corporate greed to grab a larger slice of the market... and in the meantime, there are various souls out there who are feeling hurt, angry and disappointed at being dumped for a cholesterol fix.

I woner if anybody has considered instigating a 'class action' suit against Burger King?  Now that I'd like to see.
