fast food – commercials vs reality

As you’ve probably noticed, almost all the humor here is original.  (That is, unique, handcrafted, one-of-a-kind, limited-edition, you-saw-it-here-first type stuff.)  But occasionally I like to share a few funny links to other humor sites, so you may enjoy some of the random stuff I come across while perusing the Internet.   This is one of those times.  🙂

If you’ve eaten fast food, you’ve probably noticed that the food item you receive doesn’t usually look anywhere like the commercials on TV.  I saw a special on TV about this one time, and they said some of the food shown in commercials is fake — that is, not even made of food.  Here’s a post with many pictures comparing the commercial version vs the actual version (which of course can vary quite a bit).

Fab’s burger challenge

This past weekend, Fab and Bag O’ Donuts hosted a party, and the food was inspired by recent discussions and pictures on this blog.  I was invited but had previous commitments for that evening.  After seeing the pictures Fab sent me, I’m really sad I missed this party.  Check out these burgers!  These are burgers of legend!

There is a LOT of meat and cheese on those burgers.  There’s also a lot of bacon, which doesn’t show up well in the pictures.   They cooked two packages of bacon, and here’s a picture of the bacon grease they drained off.

I showed that pic to someone before posting it, and they asked if the burgers were dipped in the bacon grease.  While that would probably be tasty, I hope that did not happen, or the people involved should probably make sure their will is up-to-date.

For the record, no one finished a whole burger.  Maybe next time I will be able to attend, so I can show ’em what’s up!   🙂

caption contest, big couch

It’s Monday, so some of you are inevitably awaiting the next caption contest.  Well, your wait is over.  Here is this week’s issue.   Now write something funny to go with it!   🙂

funny pictures, episode 1

Today I’m gonna show you some funny pictures.  I have quite a stash of them in my inventory, and everyone likes seeing funny pictures, right?  [All together now: “YAY!”]

This isn’t an official caption contest, but that doesn’t matter.  If you think of something funny to add to these pics in way of a caption, have at it.  Share the humor.  That way, instead of just you laughing, countless untold dozens of people get to laugh also.  Maybe somebody will even go so far as to think you’re funny!  (It could happen…)

FYI, some of them you might be able to click on to access a larger version.  Now, on to the pictures!  Ready… set… SCROLL!

That concludes our introductory pilot episode of funny pictures.  I’m creating a category for it, so you can click on it to quickly find the other ones (later).  Also of note, there have been funny pictures posted previously, particularly in the “Say What?” caption contests.
