And now I want about 5 more.

S’s just a shame it’s 1:26am and there’s no-where open to buy some.  
Arse.

Scientist #1: My God! It looks like some kind of half-man, half-lobster creature.

Scientest #2: Yes, but look at these slides.

Scientist #1: It’s growing at an extraordinary rate. At this speed, it will be the size of St. Paul’s Cathedral in 16 hours.

Scientest #2: Good Lord. Something must have irradiated its food supply!

Lobsang: Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Was it pre-ketchuped? Did it have salad already in? If so, how did you feel about those elements being hot? Did the bread go soggy? Were you drunk?

I like microwaved cheeseburgers. Especially the ones you get from British Rail buffet cars.

I know it’s wrong, but I can’t help it.

Mmmm. White Castle Frozen CheezeBurgers. Damn. I think about those, and it makes me wish I still got high. I’d smoke a great big bong, and eat a whole box of 'em. Yum.

mmmmm…nothing like late night drunk food.

Here in Madison, we have a Mexican place right downtown in the “pub-crawl” zone that advertises “burritos as big as your head”.

Is it any coincidence they (and a gyro place) prominently display the fact that they open til an hour and a half after bar-time?

Mctaggart’s is open until 3am, so I can get white castles till then.

La Bamba!! We had the same place in Champaign, IL. We also had a gyro place that was open after the bars closed, but I couldn’t go in there, even drunk. (There was an Onion news in brief titled “Disgusting Gyro Meat Magically Turns Delicious After 1am”, which was set in Champaign, ironically, and which described the situation perfectly.)

I could go for a burrito as big as my head right about now. Does your La Bamba have the disturbing burrito-head football player mural on the wall?

I’ll have a microwave burger now and then (H-E-B has rather good ones), but never with the bun included…eeew! soggy, squishy bun…

I actually like those microwave sausage/egg/cheese biscuits/muffins/croissants commonly found in 7-11’s and such.

I love microwave hamburgers after a night on the piss… but you can’t go past Pluto pops, you know, the type the vendor sells out front of the pub?

Mmmmmm.

Donner kebab = gyro in the US.

I love post-pub donners from the van. Rar.
