I wasn't screamin' - I was whistling!
So we grabbed dinner at Boston Market tonight while we were out, and noticed they were doing a promotion on February 6th. "Come in and get half a chicken sandwich free!" Now I'm all for the concept of free food -- be it a free pack of Burger King fries, or a Taco Bell taco if a homerun or a meteor hits a star on a floating raft. But half a sandwich? And we're not talking subs here. We're talking half of a small, round hamburger-bun-style chicken sandwich. What kind of lame-ass promotion is that?

How much are your ribs?
2-fitty.
2-fitty?! How much for half a rib?
'Bout 1.25.
1.25? that's too much for half a rib! I'll have one rib.
One order of ribs!
Not one ORDER! One RIB!
That's not the way we do it here.
Well then how much for a soda?
One dollar.
Okay, how about you give me a sip for fifteen cents?
My cups cost more than fifteen cents!
Okay, fuck the cup, how about you just pour it in my hands for a dime?



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Robyn picks up the single rib she just ordered, comparing it to the picture behind the counter-
"Can anybody tell me what's wrong with this picture?"

half a sandwhich? that is pretty cheap. i would expect more from such a fine dining facility as Boston Market. besides, they should do it on Feb. 14th... "Come in and get a half sandwhich for your date because that's probably all she'll eat anyway!"

"About five"
"Lets see, dats abou fit-ty cent a rib, right?"
"yes"
"ok, gimme one"
"One order of ribs"
"No no, one RIB"
"one rib? OK ONE RIB!"
"man, I sho is hungry! how much fo a soda?"
"ONE DOLLAR"
"one dolla?!?! aw, come on man, caint ya help a brutha out, how bout you gimme a sip fo 15 cent?"
"My CUPS cost more than 15 cents"
"Ok, fuck da cup, po' it in my hand fo a dime!"
"Thts 50 cents"
"hold on" "You giot change fo' a hundid?"

jj -- it was pieced together from several websites because I couldn't find the entire quote on IMDB. Thanks for the correction.

I think the best part of that movie was when he "O-Ged". *guffaw*
