PROBlems in the accounting department at Krispy Kreme. Some unwarranted creativity, shall we say. (not surprised to find that they follow the republican business model)

10. Krispy Kreme went bankrupt in Canada...
couldn't compete with the juggernaut that is Timmy's up here.

Canadians have Tim's coffee running through our veins.

13. Them Canadians love their Tim Hortons
That's for sure. I live in MI so I'm right on the border as well. There are a few here as well but I was amazed how many are there on the other side of the border.

I actually am not a big fan of Krispy Kreme. I prefer Dunkin Donuts (or perhaps Tim Hortons - I don't think I've tried their donuts but they have decent coffee and bagels though) or some local smaller donut places.

Granted, I eat donuts very rarely as it is which is a good thing considering they are so damn fattening.

3. Sugar-coated outside,
greasy and lacking in substance inside. Appealing to our most craven desires.

7. Donuts
politics are like religion....

11. You can tell loads about politics from Donuts.

The quality of Donuts (and Bagels) depends on the quality of the water, as well as the quality control of the business. A lousy donut means that businesses just don't care and/or the government is inept or negligent in providing good drinking water.

12. as is the case with so much regarding the obfuscation...
of contemporaneous right-wing republican 'life in amerika' brought about; if indeed not foisted upon us by their nefarious means-all, there is more to be gained imho from a greater understanding as to just where the donut is; or indeed a groping of donuts are in fact not and so...the 'donut hole', to my mind, harbors the, again, greater nuance as to just where it is the body politic is to be explained however opaque & unsatisfying a 'read' it may offer again imo
