I got a newsletter from Apple saying: We are going to deplete you're bank account tomorrow!
The next day was June 29th, 2007.

Some scholars have pioneered the obscure field of "Dardenology," the divining of the bureaucratic politics at parent company Darden Restaurants' HQ in Orlando, based on the slightest variations in subject matter and prominence of entries in the Fresh Catch.

I once went to the endless shrimp event and ate 100 shrimp. On the 5th or 6th date with my current wife.
Regrets? I have a few...

Did you feel the need to explain to her what she witnessed?

I told her what I was trying to do. I kept careful count. We both did.
I broke the news to her like this...
"Hey baby, have you ever made out with a guy who smells like a bucket of shrimp?"
Seriously though, I smelled like shrimp for about a week. You could feel the shrimp moving through your veins. Like having your blood replaced with garlic butter.

You should've covered yourself in cocktail sauce for her.

At their next date, she dabbed cocktail sauce behind her ears... he proposed to her on the spot.

Pleased to announce I've been to Red Lobster once in the past 10 years...that one time was a couple years ago just to see if it was as bad as I remembered. It was. I shall never go again, unless someone else is paying and they drag me in.
I pan-fried a bag of shrimp last night...dipped in peanut sauce, and it was so much better than that mediocre RL shrimp pictured above that it hurts me to look at the screen.
Also: I have the same policy about The Keg. My steaks are better and much cheaper; their ribs are so bad for a "steak house" that I was embarrassed for them as I picked at my plate.
Well that's all the negativity I can think of for now...carry on

I am aware, but that doesn't make mass produced freeze-dried seafood any less disgusting.
I ate at a seafood joint in Bristol, RI last year call Quidos. It has its own dock and I saw the shrimp I ordered get unloaded minutes before I ate it. Freshest, most delicious shrimp ever.

They sell seafood? I just go for lunch sometimes and load up on salad and biscuits. Yeah, the damned biscuits, they're just evil.

Love the biscuits. The dining center in school must have had the same supplier for those biscuits because they had them every other week or so. That night, supper was basically a huge-ass plate of biscuits.

We'd get some Brit in here complaining that they thought it was the official COOKIE thread.

Being in debt and celebrating a lower deficit is like being on a diet and celebrating the fact you gained two pounds this week instead of five.

I've been there three times in my life. Each time someone in my party didn't feel well after eating there. The food there is terrible. As for the biscuits, it's probably pretty easy to make those yourself.
