We were the best and brightest. We were the kind of guys who, if they were running the biggest mobile network in the U.S., would say it’s not enough to be the biggest, we also want to be the best, and once they got to be the best, they’d say, How can we get even better? What can we do to be the best in the whole fucking world? What can we do that would blow people’s fucking minds? They wouldn’t have sat around wondering about ways to fuck over people who loved their product. But then something happened. Guys like you took over the phone company and all you cared about was milking profit and paying off assholes in Congress to fuck over anyone who came along with a better idea, because even though it might be great for consumers it would mean you and your lazy pals would have to get off your asses and start working again in order to keep up.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fake Steve Jobs FTW&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s better to skip a meal than eat crap barbeque and be made angry and ashamed. Look out for these warnings:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;no hot sauce on the tables. Anywhere with good BBQ will have so many people asking for hot sauce that it will already be out. Furthermore, if you want NC-style barbeque, there shoul be vinegar-based sauce out.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;photos on the wall of great barbeque chefs. No photos of where you currently are, and none of the chefs work here.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;beer is in a fridge by the hostess stand.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;none of the other (few) customers are fat. Fat people don’t waste time with bullshit BBQ. Also, good BBQ tends to have really old people at it too.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;non-BBQ menu items. ESPECIALLY burritos/Mexican.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;fucked up coleslaw. People in LA have no clue with the slaw. Just do whatever you want? Is that it? It’s not a fucking cabbage salad.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;no hushpuppies or fried bread of any sort.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The menu should say pick meat and pick side. That’s it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pulled pork should not be served in sauce. Put sauce on if you like, but it should taste good without sauce. The sauce should not have tomato paste or molasses in it. Put that shit on ribs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I guess this place fancies itself “Santa Maria” style BBQ. I am sure Santa Maria BBQ does not resemble the gray mush I ate tonight.&lt;/p&gt;
