Potbelly stems from Chicago. Panera is infinitely better than the blandness that is Subway.

Both are.

Ostrich/emu burgers rule.  Never had it any other way.  I'm guessing our faux-Mexican friend is confused about the "taco sandwich".
i just don't recall ostrich or taco being at US shops.
So was curious.

And Jimmy Johns is king of the fast sandwich.

Jimmy Johns also sucks.  Putting fucking cucumbers in everything.  They'd put cucumbers in their cucumbers.

Yeah no. Talk about awful.

Oh. I thought you were just playing off of GF. Well okay then. I don't feel badly for not knowing it.

You should. :pope:

Why? I'm an Iowa girl who moved to Illinois. It's not like I've spent more than a day in the New York Subway system. :P

I didn't know.  Trains, just like the big cities they service, are for poors and the economic criminals who prey on them.  I avoid such places.

:huh:

The subway system in NYC isn't just for poor people. Actually I'm not sure I've been on a subway system that is just for the poor.

But then again, you were mentioning trains...though that also isn't true in the Northeast (or anywhere with a decent commuter rail system).

Btw, didn't the Gauls invent brown mustard?

After some googling, I know it has Chinese Mustard.

That's odd.  Brown mustard is totally different than the mustard you get in a Chinaman restaurant to put on your egg rolls.

Also watched Broken Flowers.  Bill Murray thinks a son he never met is trying to contact him, so he looks up every squeeze he ever had. 

It looked promising, Bill sort of reprising his Lost in Translation role, but 3/4 of this movie is shots of Bill driving around in a rental car trying to find street addresses.  My hunch is it's a student film project they tried to pad out to feature film length.
