This guy is OK in my book because we both chose Katz’s as our dream location for work.

My friend Wags: I slaved over cheesesteaks during the Super Bowl, and went against Carl’s… Mine won. hands Down. Not even close. My friend ate 3….That is 3 feet of cheesesteak (each sandwich was about a foot). Of course, I used prime rib eye, sliced on my own deli slicer, went to an italian bakery to get the bread, b/c that’s how I roll…but I swear on the life of Abrain mine are even closer to PAtt’s.Tony luc’s than Carl’s are….

Frankly, I find “Michael” and his affected hairstyle, garish sweater set and pedestrian taste in food to be entirely forgettable.

You can do better, Zach.

Goats, I like you. But did you just say Carl’s Steaks aren’t the closest thing to Pats or Jim’s in NYC? Sheeee-it.

Mike, good profile buddy. Short. To the point. Kudos to enduring the obnoxiousness from certain individuals. It is ok for some people not to like certain cuisines, or in your case, to enjoy deli style sandwiches that some consider “generic.” I applaud your honesty. I have only one contention. I, NOT Carl’s Cheesesteaks,make the best philly cheesesteak in NYC…Unforuntately, i don’t have a food license, so
I can only say trust me when I say this. Otherwise, good job!

Mikey, his million co-workers, generic delis and Abrain –

douche, douches, douches, and douche

Agreed that this profile is douchey at best

mainly because of the SWEATER

I HATE GENERIC NY DELIS. However, I really find their sandwiches to be fresh and original, the hot/cold bar is clean and appears fresh, and the rolly wraps, which have disappeared of late, are one of midtown’s best lunch options.”

My last reply on this issue. Mike, do you see the inherent contradiction in “generic”/”original”.

Abrain. Why does liking delis make one a douche? Sure, the person may be misguided or inward in terms of their scope of food but that’s pretty small in the worldwide scope of things.

Of all 4,999,993,403 ways there are to be a douche in this world, liking delis isn’t high up on that list.
