I'll never really understand stuff like this:


Waiting 12hrs for a donut. The first 12 in line can get a dozen donuts. Donutmania. None of the people in line saw the Portlandia Brunch episode, I'm sure. Not even a fan of donuts but theres a dozen better bakeries within a mile of that place.
People are f***ed. I bet 95% of them did it just so they could show off on the 'gram. The world continues to get dumber.

Krispy Kreme donuts fresh made and hot are like crack cocaine. Sooooooo good.

What is Portlandia Brunch?

Portlandia, comedy series around a decade ago. Spoofs a lot of the idiot Portland kind of mentality but specific to my comment the episode is about a Brunch place being so in demand with huge lineups and people wanting to go like their life depends on it while other places just next door go empty.



Happens so much, people get locked into one place where others are right there, and better, cheaper, etc.

hard pass on Krispy Kreme.

Oh yeah that always happens when a new popular place opens. Jollibee, Peter’s Drive In, Crumbl Cookies, Chick Fil A all crazy lineups for a couple weeks but it’ll die down.

And then I’ll be a regular gorging on Krispy Kreme donuts fresh out of the fryer with their heroin sauce coating melting in my watering mouth.

Not surprised though. Tim Hortons won the donut war here and offer a whopping selection of 5 different kinds to choose from, that is if you can catch them at a time when they’re fully stocked.

I sure miss the days when places like Robin’s donuts or Country Style were around. You walked into those stores and not only did they smell like actual bakeries (because they were) but there were dozens of different items to choose from. We sure accept lots less for much more these days.
