YUMMY YUMMY -- Update!

Well, good to see everyone is interested in YUMMY YUMMY. So much so that I went back to the mall today to check things out.

Needless to say, I was HUGELY disappointed when I found Y^2 working the "vegetable" part of the grill (you know the veggies they serve, a mix of wild crab grasses - yes, they've been harvesting my yard for their greens. Stir-fried clover for everyone! My yard is a mix of clover, weeds and dead grass, but yet, it still must be cut. This is not cool).

Anyway Yumms was so focused on that task that we only heard ONE measly "YUMMY YUMMY!" I would not be exaggerating to say that I found this quite sad. Sad indeed. I am left to consider 24-hour mall surveillance. I'm certain my employer will understand

YUMMY YUMMY

So, there's a mall near work that we sometimes lunch at. Within said mall, there is a teriyaki place, standard 500 pounds of chicken frying constantly, add teriyaki, boom - lunch. Right next to this place is a Thai Kitchen place. And it's basically the same, but with more choices. One isn't really hibachi and the other isn't really Thai.

Well, there is somewhat of a war going on between the two places. They have dueling sample guys. If customers are loitering, unsure, they will both yell out to them - verbally enticing. All is well and good and makes for interesting lunch watching (perhaps over some Chick-Fil-A).

But the really clincher, and the guy I can watch all day is the teriyaki guy. When someone is wavering he'll say, "Try some [something-something]! YUMMY, YUMMY." And the way he says YUMMY YUMMY is pretty much the most hilarious thing ever. After the YUMMY, YUMMY, if the person doesn't get in line - death stare. He's the kind of guy I could write a hit play for.

Ok, I am 3 paragraphs in and that's really the entire story. You see, it's funny. I know it's funny; work buddies know it's funny. But how can I convey the funniness to you without having a video? I really can't. Just remember: YUMMY YUMMY.
