I confess, I have all of the DD locations in a database file loaded onto my GPS.

Not that I really need it, one of the best things about living where I do is that you can always see the next Dunkin Donuts from the one you are currently in.

Nah, I can get way better donuts from our local bakery. Their sales haven't gone up because of me though, I lived in this town before they opened.

It's the worst one to have, certainly. Mainland UK - I sound like a pikey, out here they call it a brogue.

According to my mum, who knows **** all about anything, I hasten to add, I don't sound the same as I used to anyway.
Sounds like a band, Judas Priest and the Choirboy.

More crisps, less sweets. Just because you're living here doesn't mean you have to let yourself go.

I always assumed you were a pikey anyway.
A brogue? Sounds like a polite way of admitting that they don't understand you. Try speaking with a Spanish accent, they'll get it then.

Didn't anyone ever tell you, Mummy's always right?

I'd rather be fat and dead than alive and insufferable like those bloody exercise mentalists or the nazis who tell you what you can and can't eat

What doesn't kill you makes you fatter.

I'm going to feed you some irony, even if it kills you.

Half a packet of crisps and a bar of Dairy Milk between 2 donuts, is not exactly my idea of a sandwich.
