And I thought Joel Matlin, president of Alarrrrmforce was annoying.

I don't think I've heard the Palmer Recycling radio commercial in awhile but I have to agree they were the nadir of the nadirific Team1200 radio commercials not to mention a copyright violation of the old SNL Hans and Franz sketch. I believe the voice-over and voices are done by Matt "Mr. Lisp" Kaunisviita. Google Palmer Recycling ... *sigh*.

Yes, that commercial is horrid. I don't know how something can be called a "wing" when it is just a hunk of chicken meat coated with sauce and made to taste like a wing.

Anyway, I could never stay mad at Boston Pizza for too long, as they are the home of the one and only perogie pizza.

Thank you !!

How the Diddle is that a wing ? The commerical clearly says it's chicken breast !

Apparently it's been before, so Boston Pizza isn't even the first to do it !

Assuming a 12 hour day, which seems like the kind of hours someone receiving 1000 emails would put in, there are roughly 83 emails per hour. Meredith is receiving a whopping 1.38 emails per minute.
Obviously to reply to 1000 emails, she has to respond with an email in less than a minute. Your eyes cannot leave the phone screen. Nope, not possible.

Someone did the math already:

No wonder Apple is making them irrelevant.
