OMG, I make some damned tasty sammiches.

I’ve been considering another ‘catch-up’ blog about how my dad managed to land a fish hook into his eye, how my little sister’s friend was sucking on a guy friend of her’s face, or how I no longer work at Subway due to a lying ’see you next Tuesday’ and her psychotic stepfather.

Instead, I’m going to rave about how Subway managed to instill at least one good skill that I can now apply to everyday life. =D

I can make some rediculously insane sandwiches- right now I’m eating two turkey/roast beef sandwiches with ranch and cheese (Gouda on one, and something else with a hint of dill on another), and one hard salami sandwich with ranch and aged New York cheddar- all on kaiser rolls.

The reason why I’m raving over these sammiches is not only because the high-quality ingredients left over from New Years’ make them truly epic- it’s because it makes me realize just how much Subway is ripping off its customers. Especially the regulars that come in on a daily basis.

Think about it- I went to Food Lion an hour or so ago, and I saw bread for about $3 (I’m rounding up..), a pound of Black Forest Ham for $6, Ranch (Or some other condiment) for a couple of dollars, cheese for a couple more dollars, and then assorted veggies- how much depends on how many veggies you want. But in all fairness, let’s play it safe- let’s say it’ll cost you $25 to get all of the materials involved for a plain ham and cheese sandwich- which is currently a $5 footlong. Aside from the quality of the food likely being better when you make it on your own, you’ll be able to make more then five sandwiches (Or the Subway equivalent of five sandwiches) that taste as good (If not better) then what you’d buy at that particular sub shoppe.

Some might be saying, “Well, Tom- how do we know that you aren’t just saying this because you’re pissed off at Subway for giving you the boot?” To that, I say: “All right, smarty-pants; try it out for yourself and you’ll see that I’m right.”

I already tried it. And the result tastes delicious. =D

How Things Are..

Hey; my name’s Tom. Online, I sometimes either go by Ninshan or Iceman. I’m 6′3″, about 260 lbs., and I have a blonde receding hairline. I have blue eyes, soft lips, and I’m a bit of a dork- I play video games, watch some (Not a lot of) anime, and play a collectible card game.

I’m a Cancer (The astrological sign, not the bad kind); I don’t believe in astrology, but one would be surprised as to how much I’m a ‘typical’ cancer. The bottom line is, I’m a sweetheart- but I can be a pain in the ass, sometimes. =D Thanks in advance.

For the first three-or-so years of this blog, I went by ‘Ninshan’- I’m slowly cycling that out. Not because I terribly mind being referred to by an alias, but it sometimes confuses people who know my real name in real life.
