I want to make my own, but with a fried egg. Does it come with gravy? Can I get gravy to dip it in?

a fried egg would be amazing on it. i need mine without swiss, though. and i'm sure a side of dipping gravy wouldn't be out of the question. now that i look at it more, gravy would be f***ing awesome on it. i've never wanted a weekend to be over so much in my life. over a sammich. that has to be bad news

It has definitely been discussed on more than just that one occasion. In fact, there are many people here looking forward to it. I will be bringing my camera to work on Monday so I can photo-document my lunch time awesome.

It comes with some sort of dressing/condiment (similar to thousand island I think?). That mixed with gravy might not be the best option out there. Plus, bacon in chicken/turkey gravy doesn't do it for me. Now, make it a breakfast gravy and you're talking!

Dude, I also must say you have some relatively neat handwriting. Far more legible than the chicken-scratch I try to pass off.

That does sound like bad news. My roommate and I were sitting here discussing it, and while it sounds delicious we decided it wasn't worth it for two reasons:

The s*** you take afterward will be colossal. Monumental. Painful.

You are 100,000 times more likely to go into cardiac arrest immediately after eating the Double Down than at any other time. I don't want to eat it as kind of a joke and then wake up in the hospital surrounded by worried-looking friends. "Whoa, Tim maybe you need to take it easy from now on?" is something I want to hear at age 75, not 24.

sometimes it's worse, sometimes better. that's somewhere in the middle, which is particularly neater than it usually is when writing on a vertical surface. i only take my time and make it legible when i'm writing something to give to someone else, otherwise it's only decipherable by me.

Actually, I believe the nutritional info states it has about 530 calories. There are far worse things out there for you (like a meal from taco bell consisting of 3-4 items). I'm guessing the sandwich is small, so I'll probably order 3 and not get any fries. Also, I want to try both varieties - one with fried chicken and one with "grilled" chicken.

its OK, by the time thephone is actually released on verizon, there will be another android phone out with 2x the specs.

verizon and google EFFED THIS UP SO HARD. They would have sold SSSOOOOOOO many more devices on verizon if they released it with the ATT/etc models.

They have basically already lost my business. I'm just gona wait for the next latest/greatest android phone now. N1 is old news. was released MOOONNNTTTHHHHSSSSS ago, and in the tech world, thats ancient. so N1? no thanks. i'll take the next model.

i don't follow tech world time, just my wallet. which means i'll get whatever cool phone is out when my contract is up next february. hell, i kept an entry level dell laptop running for 6 years because i was too cheap/lazy/technologically stupid to get a new one (technically, all it needs is a new battery and power cable, maybe a reformat, but it'll still work).

Seriously, I catch sh*t for most of my stuff. Why did you buy such an expensive remote? Why do you have 4 computers? Why did you buy and iPad? There's better phones than that!

Blah, blah, blah. I don't expect anyone to understand. I bought my crap cause I'm a nerd and it all benefits me in some way.

On an unrelated note, this website makes me want to punch babies.

I feel I need to elaborate. Laziness is an art form with me. I actually modified my original xbox controller to install a power button so I didn't have to get off the couch to turn the xbox on. You know you're jealous.
