I'm laughing hysterically, because that's where the condo board majority insisted on getting dinners for executive meetings for so long....

now, they've switched to Panera's. Same stuff, different packaging...

Top Ten Signs You're At A Bad Applebee's

4. All you hear from the kitchen is, "Here kitty, kitty, kitty"

3. Only dessert option is a packet of Sweet 'N Low

2. The chef just washed his hands...in your french onion soup

6. Reference to another error from super-Fail pundit Brooks

He made a reference to middle America as those who eat at "the salad bar at Applebees", but Applebees has never had salad bars.

Brooks is just another in a long, long, long, long line of wingnut welfare recipients who are always wrong, always reich-wing, but always get to be well-paid pundits.

I lump all those clowns together. Just as likely as it's not that they get orders on whether to be "super-right", "slightly-right", "reasonable right", "center-right", etc from whomever pays their bills.

These people don't go out. That's why they're so pale. Give them a few more generations and their eyes will be vestigial like cave fish.
