Pretty sure we all know what “unassailable” means. Most boats have motors these days anyway.
This is the funniest thing I’ve read all day. It’s only 8am, but still.

I’m glad they are at least keeping professional ones. When I become Lord Grand High Chancellor of the Realm I’ll want all of the Proletariat to recognize the amount of effort it took me to arrive at that particular post. Gender and/or marital status are not important as long as everyone is aware that due to my heritage and/or born socioeconomic status and thus formal educational pursuits, I am better than they are and make better decisions. This will also allow them to remain comfortable in complacent acquiescence and/or supplication.

It was Jack in the Box.
Also affectionately known as "Rat In A Bag" and "Jack Off in A Box". A guy I knew in high school, who was an assistant manger at a JITB, was skimming from the till, got caught and got fired. Before he heft he went into the back where they stored the "secret sauce" and added a "personal" ingredient to it. I haven't touched anything from that chain since.

They have had a lot of far more public issues that are corporation wide that make them a poor dining choice in general. I will not eat at one either.

Nothing says gourmet cuisine like “Safe and Effective”.

Last time we had a food emergency with my daughter (4) while out and about, I asked her how her Taco Bell was and she said “squishy and hot”.

I told her that is exactly how they built their fortune, by offering something squishy and hot to people who have had too much juice in the middle of the night.

She replied “Wait, they have fortune cookies !?!?!?”

Dumb de dumb dumb.

The use of "honorifics" clearly taxes what's left of the contemporary American mind. The wisdom of the WSJ is unassailable.

For those of you who have not heard the word "unassailable", here's a link to its definition. I apologize for the use of polysyllabic words. I know this is mentally taxing for you.

you just reminded me of Bob Newharts classic country western music joke.
