Subway is one of the few ‘restaurants’ you will see catering to the troops in Iraq.

I will gladly continue to give them my money, because not only do they support the troops, but they also make delicious food.

” Contest is open only to legal residents of the Untied (sic) States who are currently over the age of 18 and have children who attend elementary, private or parochial schools that serve grades PreK-6. No home schools will be accepted.”

It sounds as though they think home schooling is illegal. Ignoramuses! GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS ARE ILLEGAL!

And Quizno’s subs are ten times better, anyway.

You don’t like the Italian BMT or their Chicken Club?

Delicious.

Dude...you've got "issues" to resolve. Your past postings reveal that you're pro-government schools and pro-homosexual. These aren't exactly things we hold in high regards around here. There are other forums where you'd get along a lot better than FR with a posting history such as yours.

I'm just trying to save you a little grief before everybody else finds out. :-)

I’m pro letting people live their lives with as little interference as possible, be it from the government or from other people.

What’s so wrong about that?

Unless they change this ASAP, they're not getting another dime of my business...EVER AGAIN.

Is Subway worried that educated American children are a threat to its possible labor pool?

Here we are talking about processed meats on white bread, and you then start talking about personal demons. I am not following you.

Subway, like every other company on the planet, is far from perfect. However, they are doing their part by giving the troops, who are several thousand miles away and in a turd world nation, a small taste of home.

That earns some brownie points in my book.

As to why they are excluding homeschoolers from some lame contest is beyond me. So, why not call and find out before flipping out, sending angry letters, and calling for a boycott of Subway.

I decided to write one for the home schoolers. I picked one of their story lines:

Nothing Better: The smell of fresh baked bread coming from the store was so good that...

immediately went in to buy a turkey sub. Then for some damn reason, this so-called "fresh bread" I found to be rather was hard and bland. Now if I was fed this in the gulag ran mystery meat emporiums laughingly known as 'public school cafeterias', I probably wouldn't have known the difference. After all these are the same people that take toast, put ketchup on it with some Velveeta and try to pass it off as pizza. Problem was is that I'm home schooled, and was raised not only to be smarter than the average underwear showing pubic school slacker, but raised not to be a sucker and pay $5 for a processed meat on a stale chunk of french bread. I decided to play it smart and just get a tuna salad in a plastic bowl.

I presented the high school graduate a $20 bill for my $5 sub. He rang it up and then stopped staring deep into his cash register.

"Do you have anything smaller?" the slacked-jawed yutz asked.

"No I'm afraid not." I replied.

"Oh great! Well I can't make change. See I only have a $10 and 4 $1 bills!"

"Well do you have a $5's" I inquired.

"Well yes I do. But I only have 4 $1's" he said.

"So instead of $1's, give me a $10 and a $5 and you get the same thing!"
"Wait a second." He dodged into the back room and started counting on his fingers. 3 mins later he came back. "Damn! You're right!"

He gave me my change, and I walked out, never to see him again, because I found a Quiznos down the street. "
