I never really used to pay attention to restaurant flyers, but since I've moved and started handling all incoming mail I suppose I've glanced at a couple, just out of curiosity.

...

12 bucks, before tax, for the place's cheapest 7" sub? What the hell, people? Twelve dollars buy me like five meals! Who pays 12 fucking Canadian dollars for a fucking sub? This isn't even some high-brow place, it's a bullshit faux-Italian chain where idiots take their girlfriends when they want to look fancy! Jesus Christ! :fail:

Times are tough? You think times are tough? Take that 12 dollar sandwich out of your pie-hole, motherfucker, then tell me again that times are tough.

Times will never be tough at Subway®, where you can get any regular footlong sub for just five dollars! That's right, the $5 footlong is still here! Your choice of B.L.T., Black Forest Ham, Cold Cut Combo, Italian B.M.T.®, Meatball Marinara, Spicy Italian or Veggie Delite®, all only for $5! So hurry in to your local Subway® for a footlong for only $5!

Subway®: Eat Fresh!™

Oh god how I hate Subway.

Everything there really does taste like its been sprayed down with Mysterious Substances, then stored in plastic bags for weeks.

Who eats a sub when trying to look fancy?

Idiots trying to impress their idiot girlfriends.

They actually got like a decent pasta selection and "European" pizza and that sort of thing. But the subs struck me because they were literally their cheapest entrée... except for their small pepperoni pizza, which is 11$. I'll make three twelve inchers for that price and you can bet your ass it's gonna be a lot better than theirs.

And this ain't like a retarded faux mom-and-pop place that'll close down in a week, this is a popular chain.

I don't even know why this is pissing me off so much. It's like I've suddenly looked out my window and saw a million robbers making off with a million purses.

sfdebris, I like your reviews, but come on. Just because you're friends with Confused Matthew and Linkara doesn't make their shows worth recommending.

How the non-word "shambolic" has suddenly become really Hip and Trendy for newspaper writers to either overuse horribly or use where it makes no sense at all.

Same.  I don't even know what it means.  I'm guessing it's the quality of being highly absorbent and preferred by TF2's Scout.

It's a portmanteau of the two component words that seems to be used as you would imagine. It's hard to tell because writers have become so enamoured of it that they randomly stick it in articles.

Might just be a Canadian press thing, but I've seen it in both national papers and two local ones so far.

See, the go-to source for stuff like this says it is a real word, with a different definition.

So are you sure you're not just crazy?

Well, in my defense, usage only seems to correspond with that definition about 1/3rd of the time.

I dunno, all of a sudden it just seemed to become REALLY POPULAR to randomly ram into various articles.



I guess you could say the usage is... Shambolic.

"Mitch, why do you always argue?"
"B-Wh-I-"

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh unless you are being routinely pickpocketed I don't see how people can steal your keys while you are carrying them. Unless you mean they are like, stealing your keys out of your locker at work?
