I am now dropping the nuke bomb, pinpointed on Pinback
Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 8:13 pm
I will now announce that I am officially dropping the nuke bomb on Ben regarding Jack In The Box and his claims that their food is regularly causing projectile vomiting all over the country. If he won't accept it, it proves categorically that he's lying.
I just got my statement from the credit uniion. My entire life savings amounts to $514.29.
So I'll make a bet with Pinback. $300.00 if you can find ten reports of projectile vomiting from eating Jack In The Box food. Either a newspaper of public record or a television station that has reported ten incidents, or any number of stations or newspapers that total up to ten or more.
Or, $300.00 if you give me a television station or newspaper of public record in a major city - over 100,000 - having one or more Jack In The Box outlets, that I can call reporters at that newspaper or television station who will tell me that the question is ridiculous because it is well known that Jack In The Box food causes projectile vomiting so they don't bother reporting it.
I will point out that if this were really happening, there would have been reports in the past before it became too common and they stopped. Where were the reports? Even murders in DC still get coverage from time-to-time.
Even if they did stop covering incidents of projectile vomiting from consumption of Jack in the Box food, this is a food safety issue. San Diego County - I used to live there - has a licensing system, A B C and D, and the lower the letter, the worse the health. Even cafeterias in public schools have to have a letter card. I remember the cafeteria at my school that had their "A" card hanging on a rope from the ceiling; most restaurants put theirs in the front window. (Unless they get a "B" card, then they try real hard to get their ass cleaned up and reinspected to get an A card back.) I never saw any restaurant with a grade worse than B, although I heard that C and D were possible.
If people were routinely projectile vomiting, Jack In The Box restaurants would have reports filed about them with the county health department, as well as other places. They would not continue to hold "A" ratings and I am certain their restaurants all still have A cards. And maybe the FDA, if there were lots of projectile vomiting reports nationally, or the incidents affected the whole JITB franchise system nationally. So there would be reports of this. Hell, JITB would be sued out the ass thousands of times.
Furthermore, I went to the website of the Superior Court of San Diego County where Jack In The Box is headquartered. Foodmaker, Inc. - that's the corporate entity that runs Jack In The Box - has exactly one lawsuit against it, in small claims court, which means a claim of less than $7,000, probably a slip and fall, because a food poisoning case would be worth millions.
So let's see if you'll put up or shut up.
I'll even make it fair; you send $300 to Jonsey, I'll send $300, and once you find ten cases, in the entire United States of projectile vomiting from Jack In The Box food, you win and you get the $600 back. If you can't find ten cases, or even one reputable newspaper or television station to say the question is ridiculous because it's well known that Jack In The Box food causes Projectile vomiting, then I win.
And you get ten days to find it. If you can't do it in ten days, you lose and I get the $600. If it's that obvious that this is regularly happening so they stopped reporting, finding the cases or finding a legitimate newspaper or television station who will say the question is ridiculous should be trivial.
However, if you do get a newspaper or television station to actually claim the incidence of Projectile Vomiting is true, I have the right to confirm with any competing television stations and/or newspapers within 25 miles that this is a legitimate reporter for that paper or station who has stories on the air at their TV station or that they regularly get stories printed in their paper.
I'm willing to bet more than 2/3 of my life savings that I'm right. I'm dropping the nuke bomb on you. Either you accept this challenge or if you won't, it's clear you're jerking us off, and we ain't getting no orgasm out of it.
Put up or shut up, Chrome Dome.
