I had the burger a couple of weeks ago and meant to call you.
Try it.

Had you told me that I'd actually be excited by such emails, I probably would have cried myself to sleep at night.
As it is, I'm planning on swinging by Checkers on my way home.

Is Checkers the one with drive-throughs on both sides, as well as walk-up windows? They're burgers are pretty awesome, especially compared to other fast food. I still give the win to Five Guys though.
that is checkers... and while I agree Five Guys does have a slightly better burger, I don't know that I could describe them as fast food since there is no drive-through and you end up waiting for your food 15-20 minutes if you show up anytime between the hours of 11-2.
I'd love to revisit the classic "What's the definition of a fast food place?" debate. I'm ready whenever you are.
I think anything Brian likes is considered fast food.
Joel-ism sighting:
"They're burgers are pretty awesome"
-Lauren
let me say for the record that while that may technically qualify as a Joelism, I don't usually screw up the "there's".
DAMN! That's a bad one!
I would personally put anything that you order at a counter (as opposed to seated at a table to a waitress) as fast food. And I distinguish Chipotle and Panera from McDonalds and Burger King by calling them "fast casual." I'm cool.
The difference is that Brian doesn't like Chipotle or Panera. My definition is flawless.
Lauren- Don't worry about your grammar slip-ups, your still awesome.
Fast food can be defined as any food that rips through your digestive system as quickly as it was served. Or anything that Brian eats.
And the fries at Checkers are delicious. I could eat them by the bucket.
Eric - No, your awesome.
I are awesome.
no your, all awesome. I mean, it.
trust know one
I think Eric's definition is pretty amazing. For the most part, there are no exceptions. The only one I can think of is extremely cheese-y fastfood options, which choose to *stay* in my system for days and weeks at a time. That's just as scary.
Eric- Moe Greene and I have a theory that Checkers has done something different with/to their fries over that past year or so... they seem to have a peculiar aftertaste that neither of us particularly care for. (which is why I've been getting chili slathered on top of them). Have you noticed anything like that?
No. But I did just notice that you two might be eating too much Checkers.
I haven't had Checkers in quite some time, that is disappointing news though. However, until I experience the change for myself, their still my favorite fries.
i'm jealous. checkers closed down their stores in chicago some time back. the fries and shakes were the best.
There awesome.
I'm quiet grateful that Checkers is still in MD (minus the gut busting frys). I still wish their was a Sonic near buy.
