This hack started it all...it gave birth to a new way of thinking.
Here's the basic premise:
- Go into you're local Taco J0hn's, and order up something nice, like say, a Six Pack and a Pound--the thing that matters is that you get Potato Oles with your order. Make sure to say "no" when they ask if you want anything to drink. This step is vital!
- Sit at your table and fuck around while you wait for the num-nums.
- When the food arrives, briskly empty out one of the Potato Oles containers. This is the step is where all the magic happens.
- Go to the fountain-drink-dispenser thing ("soda fountain," wikipedia calls 'em), and fill with your favorite delicious, gut-wrenching, teeth-rotting soda.
- Enjoy that damn Mr. Pibb and those heavenly soft-shells, for less than you should have paid. You cheap bastard.
Taking it further:
This might seem really retarded and cliché, but take a second to think it over--put it into context and it is monumental! Now, this is just the basic mindset you have to be in to achieve real-world based hacks; this Taco John's hack can be applied to everything. Most obviously, other fast-food restrauntes; here's where you got your McDonald's, Burger King, Arby's, Taco Bell, etc. With a bit of adaptation and creative thinking, this hack can easily be ported to other chain-stores; this is where you got your Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target--you know, all those. Expand your view even further, and you see that this can pretty change much the way you look at life.
Original Concept: Raab "Red Beard", in 2007, like summer sometime.
