    1. it's really the american cheese that surprises me.
      if you're going to order a bag of dicks, why would you NOT get a cheese with more flavor, like "stinking bishop", "Tetilla", Slack Ma Girdle, or Dorset Blue Vinyl? otherwise you just get a waxy/oily government regulated "cheese-food-product"

          1. Still, I'd be terrified. Might see something shocking and un-unseeable.
            Like the time I had a good buzz going and typed "hotmale.com" instead of "hotmail.com."
            /shivers

          2. There weren't any real ones………..mostly cartoon drawings. I'll try to remember to Google "hotmale.com". ;D

          3. I need to start drinking coffee again cause I kept reading that as hottamale.com and wondered what would be so eye searing there.

  1. I saw someone who needed a how's-my-driving hotline this morning. They decided a green arrow for left-turners meant they could go straight across, despite the through lanes having red lights… and the far side left-turners having the green arrow too.

        1. That's… their number. You punch in 1-800-EAT-A-BAG, which is as far as you can go anyway, and that's who you get.

          1. Ahhh….silly me. But that's why I was saying it wasn't a valid number because it was too long. It was my attempt at dry humor. 😛

  2. A few years ago I was working on an advertising account with a guy on the brand side that was just a horrendously pompous kid. Nobody could figure out his angle, but he seemed to have convinced his company he was the god of all things.
    So one day he sent an email that in it's string had his personal e-mail listed. We found a few of his social media accounts.
    No lie, he used the phrase Bag of Dicks, or BoD on his Twitter account almost daily.
    The next meeting he started going nuts about something and one of the more senior members on our team referenced the phrase as the new thing. Said he read a well followed Twitter account that popularized the phrase for him.
    Then he said the Twitter handle.
    This guy turned red and for about a week legitimately considered all of our suggestions for the account.
    Long and short, we actually put on a successful campaign for them and the story ended happy, but every time I see, or hear, that phrase, I think about that hotshot.

    1. Many years ago I flustered the PYT cashier during a drunken late night trip to Dick's (aren't they all?). As I approached the counter I said loudly, "Dick's Shakes 75 cents??!!! Here's a 10, keep the change!"

      1. Only for about the first minute out of the fryer. Not crispy at all, simply a delivery system for salt & hot grease.
        So, utterly delicious at 2 am after an evening of drinking!

        1. They definitely look like they contain your daily grease quota. They look kind of like Five Guys' fries, but greasier.

        1. I'm proud of my home state's Dick Swett (he and his wife have lived in NH for decades). You would be, too.
