Shhhh don't tell anyone -
although, I heard there is a guy online who has a clinic in Bucharest who has a video saying that Big Mac's cure teh AIDS... ::)
It's actually true -- there's an enzyme in the Special Sauce™ that preventsreplication.reproduction
this would never happen at Five Guys!
I still haven't tried that place but everyone I know raves about them.

Yes it would. They reject annoying kids from Meesseesseepee.
You're just angry because your entire state can't drive.
In this type of economic climate, I'm not sure whether these people want to alienate a segment of population willing to spend money.
If I ran a business, I'd be like "order in Swahili if you want". IDFC. I'll take your money.
Does that make me a whore? ;)
I run a dining car for you-know-who and we get a lot of people from outside of the country. Some of them do not speak a word of English. I have never found myself impatient to a point where I felt they were a nuisance or taking up too much of my valuable time.
I'm sorry but this clearly has some bigoted origins. Just MHO.
So I really don't think this is "Those damned non english speaking people are ruining our country and I refuse to serve them!", but probably more along the lines of "I have no idea what you're trying to order and you will take up an inordinate amount of my time because of your inability to communicate with me in my native tongue".
I could be wrong, but I've been in the situation where someone was unable to speak, didn't speak english, had a cajun accent that was so thick that even I (a native louisianian) couldn't decipher what they were attempting to say. If you know that communication is going to be an issue why wouldn't you think ahead to bring something to write on/with, maybe a spanish-> English dictionary, or for the love of christ just point to pictures on the menu if there were any pictures.
Thunter: The sign actually displayed the message in multiple languages.
Philly: I was talking about the other guy, I read the wikipedia article for Geno's and it does seem more racially motivated. The guy in North Carolina could be as well, but I was just giving my account of how frustrating it can be to deal with someone who doesn't have a way to communicate with you in even a half assed way.
You should move to Queens, NY.
Girl, please. Why should Queens have to put up with huh. She's more Staten Island.
How are people who can't read American going to understand the sign in the window?

Can't read American?
Just trying to expose her to a locality where you can hear 2.3 million residents speaking 138 different languages.
Now which specific Queens neighborhood should we stick her ass in? I bet some Columbian cousin of yours lives in Sunnyside. However I'm thinking it would be more amusing for her to run a porn shop with some Bengladeshis in Ozone Park.
If we stuck her in Staten Island all she'd be doing is watching Jersey Shore and hanging out with Susan Molinari.
Let's stick her southern belle ass in Far Rockaway or Southside Jamaica. They'll be glad to teach huh a lesson in diversity. My cousins in Astoria and Sunnyside (and the ones in Brooklyn --in Bensonhurst) would probably show her around and then abandon her somewhere near Bed-Stuy. Miss thang would love that.
How did your cousins move into Bensonhurst? I knew that the Chinese were filtering into that Lucchese-Gigante-Gotti crime syndicate hood but now those cocaine snorting Columbians?
btw, remember this -- had the hugest crush on Sasha? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0X3_k3xino
Some of the Moonies of New York tend to have a particular aversion towards Jackson Heights
They obviously don't understand and appreciate the nightly goings-ons at Club Atlantis with the transexual divas performing the latest hits from Shakira, much less the selections of Rick Astley (followed by Celia Cruz) on the jukebox at Friend's Tavern.
Speaking of same, I wonder how Queens Pride was last weekend. Used to be fab until they closed down Tragic Touch. Did I ever mention to you how Will LeMay used to dance in a thong on the bar before his modeling career took off? And honey, I used to CARRY in the basement VIP lounge.
