TMI-An open apology to the people of the Detroit area regarding my digestive tract.

RE: the noxious, odoriferous stench of the last 7 hours.

I must extend my heartfelt, and sincere apologies for the godawful miasma which has my ass as its epicenter. While I should clearly know better than to have eaten an order of Burger King onion rings (King size, no less!), and consequently to have subjected all of you good people to chemical warfare clearly prohibited by the Geneva Convention and the laws of decency, I could not help myself. I was in the thrall of the crunchy, quasi-onion flavored, disturbingly uniform bits of goodness, and unable to comport my behavior to the laws of God and man.

I know what it has been like in my office for the last few hours, and while this cannot in any make up for the torment I have unleashed on an unsuspecting city, rest assured that I (and the plants in my office) have been suffering.

I cannot promise that I will never fall prey to the siren song of the BK onion ring, but I do promise to be more cognizant of the effect that my actions have on other people.

Contritely,
blanx

It’s not you. Detroit has stunk for years.

No, this is new. Trust me. I’m used to the Detroit smell.

My dog released some gas last night and had the nerve to look at me, insulted, as if I had been the source.

I think tonight I shall pick up some onion rings on the way home and return the favor.

Man, everybody complains about those things like they give you jet turbulance of the anus or something. Better buckle up.

Maybe you and CrankyAsAnOldMan should start going to BK together. :smiley:

Or not. It would be a crime against nature.

I work in Dearborn, and I have noticed a brownish haze over our fair Mother City for the past few hours. It is big of you to fess up.

Brutus- this makes sense, as I look out my office window to the giant fist downtown. DO NOT expose yourself to the brown cloud. For your own sake.

NO!, I will not say it…(but if I had a band…)
