you are gonna get the same amount of time if you get caught pulling an armed robbery, no matter where you rob, why would risk it robbing a fucking sandwich shop? To get what, maybea grand at the very very most? There's a bank right down the street, currency exchange, armored cars driving all over....yet you rob a fucking subway. Real smart.

Hey, it wasn't me!

Tuna on whole wheat, no cheese, lots of onions and jalapinos and tomatoes and Sweet Onion Dressing is one of the not-crappiest things going for the price.

I had one prepared by a tripping pregnant teenager who kept telling me how much she loved me. "Yeah, I love you too. Hurry up with the fucking sandwich".

I had a 6" turkey on honey oat today, double meat, with lettuce/tomato/onion/olives/green peppers/cucumbers/salt/pepper/oregano/vinegar/honey mustard. And lots of banana peppers.

I'm not normally a huge fan of Subway, but that was a pretty damn good sandwich. Especially for something healthy.

I'd much rather hit up some fresh, locally owned place than the chain, but there's a Subway in my building and I'm trying to lose weight. I'm damn happy that it's there when I'm in a hurry.

I was getting a sandwich at Subway restaurant the other day as it was robbed.

I was chatting with the one employee on duty and he is bitching on and on about "who keeps a subway open till twelve on a Sunday?". I sympathize and make joke with him for a while. Tell him he should go home early if the owner doesn't check. He says he can't.

I say "I'll have some banana peppers, too" then a man enters with carrhart jacket and ski-mask. Man has big knife and says to empty register. I tell woman I was with to leave and inform someone. I will stay there so I can get stabbed too if something is to "go down". She informs people next door to call police and stands next to my car as ready to leave. May as well put neon sign over it that say "get-away" car. Luckily he didn't notice. He goes out side door. Cops ask questions. I say to employee "at least you go home early now". I get free sandwich. Eat sandwich. Go home and love silly girl with garlic-breath. End.

Crap

The sandwiches are super bland and the whole process of making them is just disgusting, everything presliced and portioned...its like someone is assembling a tv dinner right before my eyes. Plus the prices are re - tar - ded. Against my past experience i went to subway the other day to have lunch...I got the chicken bacon ranch thingy...The bacon wasnt crispy, the chicken rubbery, and the ranch was just flavorless goo. the only thing even remotely acceptable were the olives. That sandwich and a tiny ass bag of chips was 8 bucks!

Ill take a WAWA hogie over Subway any day.
I know not everyone has the luxury of having WAWA convienent store near them and its a shame. They make the freshest sandwiches and have twice the options of a Subway at half the price.

you are gonna get the same amount of time if you get caught pulling an armed robbery, no matter where you rob, why would risk it robbing a fucking sandwich shop? To get what, maybea grand at the very very most? There's a bank right down the street, currency exchange, armored cars driving all over....yet you rob a fucking subway. Real smart.

Hey, it wasn't me!

Sure, Colonel.

I'm sure the fact that there's generally no security at Subway's, no armed guards or bulletproof glass, had something to do with it. At most, they have security cameras.

Neither does the bank at the grocery or countless other places who would have vastly more more on hand....how about an expensive restaurant? Or one of those stores that sell 1000 dollar purses to lincoln park yuppie chicks?

This phenomenon, it is not limited to Subways. It might merit a thread, but maybe not. I have been to several Taco Bells on the road in the relative middle of nowhere and thought to myself "Hey, if every Taco Bell paid this much attention to preparing their product, I might look forward to shoving a pile of flour-wrapped beans down my gullet." Then I stop at a Taco Bell back in the city and am revolted. I still eat it out of laziness.

Fast food prepared with care can be NC. Subway can be NC.

crap. poor quality meats, cheeses, and bread makes for a crappy sandwich.

"fresh" ingredients. if by fresh you mean week old (besides the bread, which is BAKED daily), then yeah, they use fresh ingredients. when was the dough made?

utter crap.

The people who do these kinds of robberies aren't exactly what you call geniuses.

With the exception of the Colonel.
