Timmys goes to broadway

Tim Hortons took over a slew of former Dunkin' Donuts location in New York city and started churning out Canadian java. Many were confused by the brand change and had no idea who this "Tim guy" was. Only a few people in-the-know had the inside scoop and relished the celebrated coffee brand's entry into the big apple. Overall the response has been positive. Good coffee, okay donuts. Guess we know why Americans are fat, eh? Go easy on the donuts already!

That's Not My Coffee, I Swear ...

Awww, I was so hoping to receive my coffee order. Oh well I guess the Malaysian authorities have other ideas for it. So much for mixing 2 of my favorite things. I demand a refund!

Tim Hortons is Canadian ... again

Tim Hortons not Canadian? WHA?! Technically, no. Sadly Tim Hortons Inc. is registered in the United States. Blame it on the acquisition of the Wendy's food chain. Damn you Wendy's and your tasty Big Bacon Classic! On top of this its registered in Delaware of all places. What the hell is in Delaware? But not for long. The company has filed the necessary documents to bring itself home.

However, have no fear. Timmys will soon be headquartered in Oakville, west of Toronto (financial capital of Canada). Representatives say the move is for tax reasons. Other than that business as usual. Cheers. (link)

He Wants His Coffee Bad!

Are you willing to sue for the right to get your coffee? A Nova Scotia man is doing just that. He's been denied service going through the drive through on his motorized scooter. His disability prevents him from going in the restaurant entrance so he had been relegated to using the drive through. Tim Horton's policy is that no pedestrians, bicycles, wheelchairs, or motorized scooters will be served via the drive through. It's just too dangerous. So off to the courts we go. Human right issue or not? Is it the basic necessity which every person should be allowed to receive? This is just plain silly.

Find a solution, give the man his freaking coffee.

... That's Because It Is!

This coffee tastes like shit! ... That's because it IS shit. A Regina woman is suing McDonald's over found shit in her morning coffee. WHAT? The part of the story which I find highly unbelievable is that someone would drink half of the coffee and not notice a floating piece of shit. On top of that shit coffee isn't going to taste very good nor smell great either. So why take more than a sip?! It just does not make sense. However if that McDonald's location is putting shit in it's coffee what are they putting in that "special sauce"??

New Way To Get Your Kicks

Drink coffee to get your caffeine kick? Pfftttt! Start chewing baby! That's right, get your caffeine in chewing gum format. One pack of gum is equivalent to 1.5 cups of coffee. Mmm, chewy, perky goodness. Just make sure you don't down a few packs in a short period or else you might end up in the hospital. More goodies here from ThinkGeek.

Mmmm, om nom nom

Tim Hortons serving up more than just donuts. A man in Calgary claims he crunched down on a bug while eating chili from the restaurant. So if you like insects in your food head to the Tim Hortons on 46th Avenue S.E. (link)

Mmm, more om nom nom. Raw seal heart? My favorite. Governor General Michaelle Jean helped to gut a seal and ate a piece of its raw heart in a show of support of the Inuit community. Sealers welcomed her show of support but others freaked out over the incident. (link)
