I feel dirty. I am in Salt Lake City for the next 2 days. Everyone here looks like a miniature Keith Van Horn - men and women. There is snow everywhere. I will take a shower now.
When I drove through there, I made it a point not to get out of the car. Funny story actually came of that. I wasn't there two days though. Sucks man. Good luck.
Why is this not so subtle racism tolerated here? So you find Mormons disgusting? Good for you, next time tell your employer that and lets see how they react. Mormon jokes should not be tolerated anymore than anti-Semitic jokes are.
Lighten up Francis. There isn't any "not so subtle racism" here...just good old not so subtle hatred for Utah Jazz fans. Deal with it.
I actually saw Carlos Boozer at the airport when I was at baggage claim. No one else seemed to recognize him. I tried to take a pic with my camera phone - but instead got some old dude's mormon ass.
So I’ve been in Utah for 12 hours, and this is what I’ve learned – thus far: 1. Mormons love them some Chinese food. Every exit along the highway from Salt Lake City to Provo had a Panda Express advertisement on the blue “Food” state hwy signs – explaining what types of eateries were available to passersby 2. Teenage boys are pasty white, have very shaggy hair, and cannot flirt for the life of them. When I stopped at a Subway for dinner last night – a group of BYU students (all wearing BYU shirts) were attempting to flirt with every woman in the Subway (including the lady making our sandwiches). What I saw over the next 10 minutes horrified me. They used every not-so-subtle put-down in the book on these womens, while their friends laughed aloud – in hopes to get in some panties that night. I feared for what was going to be put in their sandwiches by the cute snow bunny preparing our foot-longs. It was like they spent 3 days watching “Mystery” on MTV and then took it to another level 3. Speaking of Subway – EVERY FOOTLONG is $5… not like in Houston – where only a select 4 or 5 sandwiches are $5 footlongs. I could have gotten the Philly Cheesesteak for $5 – where in Houston I pay almost double that. Alas, they were out of steak… and cheese. 4. The older men (late 20s) are very effeminate. Two of the men that helped me check into my hotel – I pegged as homosexual – until they mentioned their fiancés in conversation. 5. The women here are one of two types… either the stereotypical (and aforementioned snow bunny) – cute, petite, blonde, blue eyes, lily-white skin… or they are exotic European women with curves, dark hair and hazel eyes (If you’re an “Entourage” fan – think the wife of the Persian billionaire who wanted to sleep with Vince while her husband was going to finance “Medellin”) 6. Carlos Boozer can walk around the airport terminal without being harassed or asked for an autograph, or noticed. And he looks much shorter in person. 7. To end on a positive note – this may be the most picturesque area of the country I’ve ever visited. Snow-capped Rocky Mountains around the entire city… It really is beautiful. Now I’m off – to drive in a major snowstorm for the first time in my 31 years.
They just switched it back to that for now, according to the commercials. So all the chicks in Utah are attractive? I must express my skepticism.
I can venture to say the Chinese food in SLC area is pretty good, at least the ones I've been to. It really is, making you almost forget about everything else.
That is what they have on their website too. I may go today. That being said, I have seen 2 Subways that did the any footlong for $5, even when nationally it was limited to specific subs. One was in a mall in St. Louis. I can't remember where the other one I saw was.
Darryl Dawkins said that Salt Lake City was the easiest place to get laid in the country, so, uh, go for it
