Is this all some long running joke I'm not getting? That place is a poo poo hole in the middle of nowhere and this blokes hot dogs look like they were made by a teenager.

This is going to end badly relatively quickly.

It's a shithole, which means it's arguably in a greater need of money for even its most basic businesses than other places.

I mean, you could Kickstart an artisan taffy-maker's place in San Francisco, but how many high concept establishments run by privileged kids does that place need? In contrast a plain hot dog place in rural Alabama is something that has real significance, even if it may seem asinine to an outsider.

Never Forget.
So I was bored as gently caress today and stuck inside and I went through the original thread and it is something special. There were maybe 3 posts in the first 30 where someone was saying anything less than 'this brings a tear to my eye'.

Here's my favorite:

quote:

Is there a reason why his writing on the kickstarter page isn't capitalized and has a lot of typos?

Seriously people are delusional:

quote:

I've worked with a reporter before from the Boston Globe, I've fed him some information on this and am seeing if its something they'd be interested in running

Literally the only post saying 'you're dumb':

Ralp posted:

This is the gayest poo poo I have ever seen and anyone who gave any money to this is a complete loving retard. What a pathetic goon bandwagon.


Even this:

quote:

I just don't see how selling hot dogs for $5 each in a village in Alabama is a viable business model.

Was met with stuff like 'oh no, Claude knows his town. It's actually a good thing.'

And then like the second the thing is funded people come out of the woodwork to let people know that they were, in fact, idiots. With in a page it went from ernest support to 'no, I was doing this ironically'. Here's a funny quote:

quote:

Used to pass through Reform every day a couple of years ago when doing work in the area, there was a big dead dog at the edge of the road in front of a Chevron and we got to watch over the next 3 weeks as it went from fresh to bloated to deflated to gradually spread out into a giant fuzzy puddle as more and more people ran it over. At the end there was just a giant furry patch of asphalt at that station. Ive seen what Reform does to dogs.

It's seriously an amazing read and, especially knowing the outcome, kind of mind blowing how serious people were about it. There was about three pages of talk about what kind of bronze plaque Doobie would make for them because they had saved the poor town. It's purestrain GBS 1.0.

Doobie saga was a wonderful thing. "I would be successful if it wasn't for immigrants/being poor/never having a real chance in life" people can all be laughed away as Doobie essentially won the lottery and then proceeded to poo poo it all away in a combination of incompetence and laziness.

Yes, I have walked along the path of evil many times, it's a twisting curving path, that actually leads to a charming block garden, but beyond that evil!

I think the ever changing menu was my favorite thing. Random bold, italics, underlines, spacing, punctuation, etc.

Yes! I think it took me awhile to realize he KEPT switching it. Like, there were 3 or 4 variations by the time they closed... and that was in all of one year + change?

Better yet when he tried selling all the leftover chicken that's probably been sitting out all evening for like $30 a bag

Like I think a goon found all these pictures of this weird redneck family that runs a lovely restaurant and created this elaborate thing to gently caress with other goons.

I'm probably over-thinking this.

I will literally cancel Christmas to donate to his new kickstarter.

However, my parents live in Alabama, and when I go to visit them (coincidentally enough, for Christmas) I better get a free slaw dog or I'm going to be hopping mad!

I think the stupid marble hornets being the only goons who actually took a picture at the place made it feel that much more unreal but enough locals got involved posting replies to his cryptic specials soon enough
