My current phone is the last Android device I will own, at least for a while.
LaRosa's does suck and I havent had it in years, but I remember thinking their calzones were solid.

I'm a big fan of Wendy's chili. Had it yesterday.

As am I, and I'd like to eat it. It looks delicious. I just can't make myself do it.

It must have been for breakfast or dinner because I don't recall seeing it on the "What are you planning to eat for lunch" thread. I better go back and check that...

I haven't had one in a while. Definitely feel like shit the next day. It's the high caloric content that makes me not like them.

Honestly, it depends on your tolerance. It just hits you quick. I've drank two before, and that was stupid.

Of those type places, I find Chili's food to be the best, the service goes downhill fast if they are busy, so we never go there after 5:30.

Never again for Applebee's, place gives the whole family the scoots.

TGIFridays usually has sub par service and sub par food. Not a fan.

If you have a good tolerance you'll probably need like 2. I think of them like Steel Reserve... they taste like shit and you can drink a lot but at one point it will all just hit you and you'll be drunk as fuck.

Oh, absolutely.

Sat through one on our honeymoon in Aruba because we got a $100 restaurant giftcard. The guy was baffled that we wouldn't bite, very visibly annoyed when we left without buying from him. Sorry, dude, we only wanted the giftcard. I'd never do it again, though. Wasn't worth the hassle.

There's not really anything I avoid, but Radio Shack is up there.

Anyone who says Apple products are "worth it" are wrong.

There's a good chance I'll never own a Motorola phone again.

Pepsi is another item I will likely never have again.

Sonic is good, but they are notorious for screwing up my order.

I still go though, because they serve French toast sticks all day

My parents did one in Orlando (we already own from Marriott, just wanted a Universal gift card) and they were so high pressure and threatening that my parents had the police on the other line before they let them walk out.
