How long before they open a Dunkin' Donuts inside another Dunkin' Donuts?
By adamg - Sun, 03/09/2008 - 1:59pm.
Eeka reports North Station now has a second Dunkin' Donuts:
... Like, 50 feet away from the other one. Like, you could throw a donut and hit the new Dunkies. ...
Meanwhile, the Joker is back: I saw Rachael Ray advertising some Dunkin' Donuts non-coffee, non-donut thing on TV last night. Yep, her absence was too good to be true.

You might be onto something
Here's a story from 10 years ago the Onion's archives:
And, it's local!
Don't mind me. I have a problem with remembering crap like this.
That might explain something
"New Starbucks Opens In Rest Room Of Existing Starbucks"
Now we know why that jerk thought it was OK to change his kid's diaper on a Starbucks table...

Thanks!
I knew I'd read that basic idea before; should've figured it was the Onion.
Actually
As silly as it seems, that's not a bad idea. The line at the first Dunkin Dounts was always a good 5-10 minute wait, which is really long first thing in the morning.
Creepy Sort Of Ad
The new Rachel Ray ad for DD just sends some sort of chill up my spine. I'm not quite sure why. I think it's more the other person in the ad with Ray.
First off, she's about as skinny a person as they could get for the ad without going for an outright obvious anorexic. I guess we're supposed to think that's how you'll look if you eat Dunkie's new sandwiches. Second, she looks at the sandwich (and Ray, too) as though she's in love. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Ray, I mean. If she's thinking lewd thoughts about a breakfast sandwich, that's another story.

Rachael Ray's sidekick
Those ads have been bothering me too. (The same woman is in another ad for hash browns.) She's skinny and mousy, and if she gazes at RR and the food with a weird adoration in her eyes, it must be Stockholm Syndrome, because her whole manner suggests she's been locked in a closet and beaten regularly before being featured in the ad. The whole thing makes me even less hungry than RR herself does - way to sell, guys!
