...It turns out that the US has a national association dedicated to proper hotdog ettiqute. And they have decreed that no one over 18 should have ketchup on their hotdogs.

Well, fuck that. I happen to like ketchup on my hotdogs, and now I'm just going to put it on out of spite.

Your mistake was assuming stupidity had limits to begin with.

"There are two things that are infinite: the universe, and human stupidity. And I am not sure about the former."

^^^ Lol. Soooo true.


Frankly, (no pun intended) stupidity is just one of those things that will outsurvive everything: hot dogs, water, even God. There will ALWAYS be stupidity. Everywhere.

This is a fact that I utter with extreme difficulty.

I wish it weren't so, but it is.

I hate those who think hotdogs should only be eaten with mustard. What the hell, now we have RULES on EATING?

If someone wants to put ketchup on their 50 dollar steak, I say go for it and enjoy it. Same with hotdogs.

But... but... my ketchup! D= Wait... I'm over eighteen. Yay, I'm safe!

Silly Rioni, they are saying only children below 18 can have the ketchup. Therefore, you being over, can only eat mustard and onions.

Sorry.

Oh, lemme alone. X3 Aren't I allowed a mistake once in awhile? XD

Phew, what a relief. Thought this was a topic about me. X, NO MORE MISLEADING TITLES. Either way, my Costco in this city does not even SERVE ketchup with their hotdogs as an option. When I asked why, the explained that only adults can have memberships and don't bring their kids often. So I can honestly say "Thank you, X, for clearing this up."

Is... is there a reason? Or are they just limiting adults?

Huh... that's really bizarre. "Ketchup Hot Dogs: They're not just for kids."

Damn, I just thrashed etiquette earlier tonight then.

Also, "Underaged Ketchup use, Talk to your kids about it".

This is the most retarded thing I have ever seen, do they even have a point to this?

Hmmm... I dunno, Hollow... I think the doghouse it is, since the couch is too good for you...

NO KETCHUP FOR YOU!

...I think we need an official ketchup nazi.

Mega.. is the stupidity the decree... or all the people buying into this story? Given past experience, it's hard to tell whether there really is a decree so stupid, or you're just trying to trick us all.. =p

I'm afraid I actually saw this in the newspaper. You can usually tell when I'm not being truthful since the topic should say "UnNews". But yeah, this one's real.

And since stupidity is being mentioned, let me point to mad political tension in the Middle East, which my friends happen to be discussing exactly right now, next to me.

I eat my hot dogs without anything, so I can form an even smarter group. I hereby start the Association for Eating Hot Dogs with Nothing on Them.

The AEHDNT declares that hot dogs should be rightfully eaten plain--sausage on bun. The AEHDNT also declares that doing otherwise is a crime punishable by taking away 500 GP, denying camera phone usage between 3am and 6am (time local to convicted), and forcing the convicted to bathe with brightly-colored plastic machine tools.

I may like mustard on my hot dogs but it is crazy to say if you are over 18 you can't put ketchup on it.

It's a rule for the book; "Book of Rediculos Rules", or something of the sort. Nevertheless, this is the work of only the ones who....who.....made a contract with Satan?

It's an actual etiquette rule, for the 'proper' way to eat hot dogs.
