Casey’s

W. T. F?

I stopped into my local Casey’s in Grimes for the first time in a week. Got a cup of joe. All new cups. Nice. High quality stuff. Ooh, new signs for the coffee. Swanky. Wait....all new flavors? They changed the flavors? The Classic is NOT THE CLASSIC BREW!!!! It’s all bitter and ‘look at me’ now. What the ****? I go to Casey’s for the cheap and weak coffee. I check the website and it says this...

Our culinary team gave themselves a mission: find a better-tasting coffee line that resembles more specialty coffee bar flavors

WHAT THE HELL, I don’t want a coffee bar, I want my weak arse coffee back!
Coffee and the HyVee fuel saver was the only reason I used Casey’s. Right across the street from my Casey’s is a new Kwikstar. And they’re putting up another KS on the other side of my hood. Goodbye Casey’s, I’ll miss you.

Weekly Insider Information Mailbag 11-13-2019
Presented by Hotmail. Because sometimes you have to keep that one Hotmail admin employed.
With special guest JSB



First, a few straggler questions from last week:

In response to @jcyclonee asking about changing his name to Darlinstone Dubar, @Doc asked: Not at this point. How about Donglingston Dubar?
Pants:
Donglingston Dubar is my favorite Bollywood Actor.
JSB: Donglingston Dubar sounds like a porn name, right?
GTO: I’ve seen enough Bollywood and porn movies and have never come across a Donglingston Dubar. @jcyclonee - feel free to take that name if you like.

@BCClone asks: flowers or flour? (I don’t even remember the context on this one and I’m too lazy to look, so just answer as a standalone question)
JSB:
I know nothing about marijuana. I’m very innocent.
GTO: Are we talking all-purpose flour, or that pure Colombian variety?
Pants: This was about marijuana. Which is illegal in Iowa. You’re all going to hell.

@ImJustKCClone asked: Building on this question - will we have more off-season psycho threads if we dump football & basketball?
Pants:
Probably less. CF traffic would crash. As much as GTO and I may try to keep things going here, we’re only two mere mortals (technically GTO is half immortal, but does that really mean much when the other half is totally mortal?)
JSB: Well, we would still have the Politics boards, so there would be plenty of psycho in that.
GTO: I actually enjoy the off-topic threads as well as the meltdown threads quite a bit, so I would be okay with that. My only worry is that then this site could potentially become Uniform Fanatic. By the way, did you say I’m half immoral or immortal?

@mdk2isu guessed @Gunnerclone’s morning drink: Mountain Dew it is. Maybe even Diet. (I need to know how he knew that)
Pants:
This was creepy. He guessed it immediately. I was shocked by it. Honestly, probably just thought of the most disgusting thing ever made and assumed no one actually ever drank it.
JSB: I’m just glad that someone cops to drinking pop at all anymore. I love Diet Pepsi. I can’t quit it even if I only drink a can a day. But my morning drink is iced, black coffee.
GTO: Is mdk2isu a Gunner alt? Has to be, right?

What else is new? (all grass lots surrounding the field are closed Saturday)

From email just received about Saturday's game:
    • Due to recent snowfall in the Ames area, the Iowa State Athletics Department has announced that all grass lots surrounding MidAmerican Energy Field at Jack Trice Stadium are closed for Saturday's game vs. Texas.
    • Patrons with G7 parking passes will be re-routed to the paved lots at Vet Med.
