    Applebees

    Great name for a restaurant.
    When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

    Sounds like a nice place for a "Welcome to the PAC 12" luncheon.

          It must be an amazing name. For a restaurant serving some of the worst food on the planet to have as much success as Applebees has had is a modern day miracle. Perhaps it's all in the name.

                One of the originals is near where I grew up. It was called T.J. Applebees back in the day.

                    Never let it be said that SU shies away from the controversial topics.

                    What is your opinion on Fuddruckers?

                      I kind of like it when people pronounce it "Apobeez."

                        Applebees is one of my parents favorite restaurants. The love the place. It makes my wife and I laugh. It actually surprises me because my mom is an amazing cook. When they are in town and want to go out to eat, this is the first place they suggest we go to. Also without fail, every year my parents put a gift card for this place in our family stocking for Christmas. We usually end up re-gifting it.

                            LOL, you can't even spell it correctly.

                            For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                            Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                              Well, in defense of SU, I am actually the one who misspelled it.
