Excommunication, Canadian style.

For non-Canuck monkeys: Started by a hockey player, Tim Hortons is a coffee and donut shop franchise which has been granted quasi religious status by caffeine crazed hosers. Yes, this counts as a national news story up here.

  • It's like pointing out that the supplier of hamburger for McDonalds uses ammonia to kill bacteria in its meat. It's true, but it's rude, and if you say it once they'll kick you out, if you say it three times you will become the white meat in the McNuggets.
  • *Pauses, looks at McNuggets, thinks of all the monkeys who haven't posted in a while.....*
  • The guy's a real shit disturber* eh? *
  • ...you will become the white meat in the McNuggets. I think Tim Horton's is trying to grind this guy down!!
  • I have absolutely nothing witty or even unwitty to add, but I haven't commented in a while so...Hello, Monkeys!
  • Hi fw! Have a cuppa.
  • f.wench: "Waiter this coffee tastes like dirt" Waiter: "Well, it was ground just this morning" (Ba-doomp!)
  • f.wench: "Waiter this coffee stinks!" Waiter: "Well, you don't have to be such a 'drip' about it." (Ba-doomp!) TT to fw: New routine? fw to TT: Na, same ol' grind. Hey, fw! Any time we can help you out, bay-bee.
  • FWIW, I found Tim's coffee often tasted burnt, and now that they're serving microwave-thawed doughnuts, well, ptoo. Why wouldja?
  • Tims is generally swill but you luck out once in a while and get a ok cup. As for doughnuts my heart (and arteries) belong to Krispy Kreme. (I did have to beat a fairly heavy double double with a boston cream habit at Tims in the late eighties but I try not to think about those dark days.)

  • I have fond memories of smelling my mom's microwave-thawed doughnuts... ahh the memories of home.
  • Can it be a self-link if you are not the same self Quid? Admittedly I worshipped at the altar of Tims for many years but then a conversion took place. Yea I was called to the mountain where the burning bush was gently keeping a french press warm ,the bean grinder loving brushed out after releasing the fine oils which were now permeating the mountain air. One sip and I was a changed man. No more shackles of coporate coffee. Fly! Be Free!
  • Hallelujah! For he is the way, the truth and the latte!
  • Amen, brother. It's never too latte to convert to good coffee!
  • But surely ANY coffee would suffice for a quick, mean enema, right?
  • That dang monkey commented that one. Get outahere, Timsy!
  • There's nothing worse than crap coffee!!! Just curious, what do you monkeys put in your coffee? Half and half in mine!
  • Plunger coffee (I'm trying out different varieties) with a dash of cow squeezin's.
  • For your crap coffee needs.
  • I'm finishing my breakfast coffee as I read this. Fresh brewed, half and half, and it ain't crap.
