thought of the day 2009 09 09 - better than sliced bread

Again I heard the expression "best thing since sliced bread today" and every time I hear that expression it pisses me off. There is nothing special about sliced bread. You know what's better than sliced bread? Delivery. Pizza, I can go to a Papa John's and pick up what is, in effect properly sauced, sliced bread. But delivery. That's just awesome. I don't even have to go anyway, I spend a few minutes on the phone and someone brings the sliced bread to me. Fucking awesome. I will henceforth only allow the phrase "next best thing since delivery" to be used. I may allow it to be modified as "food delivery" to avoid confusion.
