The chicken fingers are the only reason I even miss Bennigans. I liked them better than Applebees, though.

Who the hell above the age of ten eats chicken fingers?Quoting MadMan (view post)
I will be hopefully going to grad school at Michigan, but that will be fall of '13, and only a one year program. After that, I'm going wherever someone will pay me. I've lived the dead broke life long enough. If you make it out here to visit the campus or something any time before I likely leave the state, let me know. I'd love any excuse to drive down to Ann Arbor. There's no better city in Michigan, as far as I'm concerned. Not that there's much competition.
Don't act like you're not impressed. That title is three years running. That's a major achievement. Our first murder this year was at the Denny's.
Anyway, had a very good time having a beer and talking TV, movies, sports and video games with Scar. So, pretty much doing exactly what we do here, which is exactly why I'm here every day. First Match Cutter I've met in person, which is cool.
Good times, good times. I'm happy I didn't fall face first into the table. 42 hours of work in three days isn't fun, plus I just checked into my third hotel this week.
KF and I had a good time. We made sure to discuss how cool a well kept '67 Impala is, as well as destruction of video game controllers.

Um, plenty of people I know. I don't order chicken fingers/chicken strips as much as I used to, but they make for a great appetizer. Honey mustard with them is a must. Chicken is delicious no matter how its served.

If there's a Match-Cut Ann Arbor gathering, I'm totally there to rep my hometown. As of this fall I'll be living in Pittsburgh, ie. close enough to visit my parents in A2 on any given weekend. Planning on probably going back for at least a couple football games/strolls through the Arb/Zingerman's lunches/nights drinking at Ashley's.
What else am I supposed to use to scoop up my mac & cheese?
Whoa! Too far, Derek. Too far.
Fish fingers are good with custard.

It better be Kraft, Derek. With a side of applesauce.
hey, i'm about 45 minutes outside of pittsburgh!
Are chicken fingers not just chicken strips? You honestly mean to tell me nobody above ten eats chicken strips? Please. Next you'll be telling me that my Tropical Punch Koolaid is an inapproprite drink with my meal.

The other day I made the decision to change jobs. Fuck retail. I'm just so bored and mentally exhausted when I get home, that I honestly feel like I'm not pleasant company to my girlfriend.
Plus, I've been doing the same thing for 9 years come August.
... now I only need to decide what to do instead. Something in a pleasant office environment would probably be nice. Anything without direct contact with customers. Blech!

Oh man, seeing this gave me a remembergasm. I haven't had a Bennigans near where I live since I moved out of Miami over ten years ago.
Their Monte Cristo sandwiches were ridiculous.

You know, my new job may be a bit crappy, but can't beat being alone in the office, with excellent cheesecake and a stocked Lavazza espresso machine at my disposal.
Actual sign from a pub window in Britain:
Kudos on making this decision. Don't waffle.
So today at work they (the proverbial "they", management) sprung a test on everyone regarding our new EPP (extended protection plan) program. None of us knew it was coming, or even knew there were changes to the program we already had in place.
Needless to say, the test wasn't taken very seriously, since we were pretty much set up to fail.
The last question on the test asked us to describe how we would sell an EPP to a customer. This was my answer:
"Hi. My name is Braden. I like romantic comedies, long walks on the beach, and extended protection programs. Be cool like me, and buy an additional 4 years of protection for your major appliance. Don't be a fool, protect your tool."
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Probably not the best way to answer to management, but hey, do as you will!
I like chicken fingers, but they are more of a lunch/appetizer kind of thing,
At least you leave grilled cheese alone. No one ever fucks with the grilled cheese sandwich.
Sure why not?

THE DISASTER ARTIST (James Franco) - 7

They laughed and took it to show to the other managers, who came back and told me I was awesome.
I'm not too worried.
Like I said, no one took it seriously. Even the managers.

Yuck. Tuna melts maybe, but I need more tuna than cheese.
I can't remember the last time I ate a chicken finger, but I eat chicken nuggets a lot, of the frozen, Target-brand variety, because I'm really just THAT poor.

My all-consuming love of buffalo wings will stretch to include boneless wings, which are just chicken fingers in spicy sauce. Does that count?
Of course I can't eat them anymore, because I'm on the path of virtue, but that doesn't mean they're not delicious.
You just "yuck" a grilled cheese? I mean, maybe if it is just two pieces of Wonder bread and Kraft Singles American cheese... but boy, a proper grilled cheese is a work of art.
