I got it, let’s pass a law that KK has to be at the top of a ten story building with no elevator. OR….you could mind you’re own f’ing business and if you don’t want doughnuts delivered to you, no one will come jam them in your fat face with a badge and a gun.
Oh, come on. I guarantee most of the folks who scoff at delivered doughnuts have riding lawnmowers, remote control TVs and garage doors, and stand on those moving sidewalks at the airport.
BV – LOL! But it’s ‘your’ not ‘you’re’ in the context in which you used it.
I bet there was a time when people thought the idea of delivered pizza was crazy too.
