Something New.

It's true. I ate somthing new today.

I frequent a sandwich shop called Deli Planet. I even go there despite the cutesy names they've created for their sandwiches (my favorite name is the Hammy Davis, Jr. - Naming a ham sandwich after a Jew is just terrific).

However, unlike Moe's (seriously, do those asshole think I'm anything but annoyed that my "burrito artist" stares blankly at me until I muster up the humility to ask for a "Joey Bag of Donuts?" I've tried simply ordering a burrito; I've tried just saying "a Joey;" it's all to no avail. They're either retarded or devilishly proud of themselves), Deli Planet has a computerized ordering screen, saving me the shame of actually ordering something with a terrible name.

Today, Deli Planet got my order wrong. I guess they were a little distracted by the zero other customers in the store. After months of ordering a plain ham and cheese sandwich on a white hoagie roll, they decide that I'd be better off this time with what I assume is a zesty spinach wrap. They got the ham and cheese part right, but it's contained within what looks like a green soft taco.

Well, I ate it and didn't mind it a bit. It was pretty close to flavorless and I'm giving myself bonus points for trying something involving a leafy green.

Against your will. Try throwing the sandwich at the 'food artist', and next time, when you have paid the municipal fine for disorderly conduct, they will get your order right, and even have it ready by the time you get to the front of the line.

That was an excellent post, CGG. Here is a fun fact in return:

I always get the same thing at every restaurant I go to. Heidi's Brooklyn Deli? I get the Philly steak sandwich. Shorty's? The buffalo burger. Illegal Pete's? The chicken burrito. Vellaro's? The small pepperoni pizza. Etc.

Why do I do this? What is wrong with me? (In this issue, not generally.)
