    In the late 80s and early 90s, Wendy’s was the best for dumpster diving. You could get a basketball-sized sphere of ground meat out of the trash around 2-3am. Peel off the outside inch or so, and you’d have meat for days.

    Dominoes dumpsters were another source of awesomeness back then. It was a very different time.

      There’s a Wendy’s by me, a few summers ago in the drive thru lane cockroaches would just climb on your car, windshield, it was nasty as hell. This happened twice and I told a friend about it, and he’s like “Oh you mean the roach Wendy’s.” Sigh. I was coming down off meth binges so I didn’t really care, just needed enough hot food to pass out.

      And that’s my pitch for a Wendy’s commercial, which hasn’t happened yet.

            That’s incredible, well done. I’m sitting here in awe of your fortitude and determination. Four days of breaking dependence is great, four years is magnificent. I hope conditions and your strength see you through another four, and many, many more.
