		<description><![CDATA[<img src='http://www.badmouth.net/wordpress/wp-content/20x20-6.jpg' alt='iN-n-oUT 20X20' /><br />“I will have a 20x20 and a soda,” may go down in history as the best thing I’ll ever say in a fast-food establishment. The cashier looked up from her register, to make sure I was serious. I was. With a stunned look on her face, she began to enter the order into the register. Apparently a 20x20 is complicated, because it took a good five minutes and about three employees to get it entered in. By this time everyone that worked there had heard about the order and one by one they came over to look at the freak while I was waiting to pay. I think I’m now a permanent part of In-N-Out lore.

My buddy the Panhandling Banana is attempting to think outside the cardboard box that he lives in at night.

Instead of simply collecting money from strangers who avert their eyes, he has branched out into the seedy world of advertising. eBay has already pulled his auction once, but he thinks he has the kinks worked out of the system now.

The high bidder will win naming rights to the cardboard sign that the banana holds on some freeway off-ramp. I'd bid it up myself, but I think it would be much funnier if someone he didn;t know made him hold up an embarrassing sign. I'd make a crude joke involving genetalia. Just a suggestion.

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&#038;item=5609359918">
The eBay Auction</a> is right here.

		<description><![CDATA[<img style="float:left;margin:5px;" src='http://www.badmouth.net/wordpress/wp-content/panhandlingbananaicon.jpg' alt='begging banana' />It started with Ben Miller. I gave a cardboard sign guy a buck, and Ben berated me, saying that these guys make more than we do, and probably live in nicer places. He even suggested that this guy might have driven to work, parking his car around the corner, no doubt with back up cardboard signs in the trunk.

I doubted this. Sure, maybe there is an eccentric or two out there who has money but signs it anyway, but they'd have to be the exception. Right? So, I decided to see how much money I could make on the freeway off-ramps of my town. Then I got competitive. I was gonna be the best card board sign guy ever.

And one of the keys to their success has been keeping it simple. There are only four food items on the In-N-Out menu: Hamburger, Cheeseburger, Double-Double and French Fries.</p>

<p>In-N-Out compliments the food with the standard array of Coca-Cola beverages and three shakes: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. And that's the menu in its entirety...</p>

<a href="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/inout/receipt.php" onclick="window.open('http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/inout/receipt.php','popup','width=250,height=524,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false"><img style="float:right; margin:10px 0 10px 10px; width:250px; height:94:px;" alt="receipt_tn.jpg" src="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/inout/receipt_tn.jpg"  /></a><p>...or at least that's what they <i>want</i> you to think. The truth of the matter is that there is an extensive "secret menu" available for those in the know. In fact, the secret items actually outnumber the items legitimately on the menu.</p>

<p>This isn't just stuff made up by bored employees. If you order a Flying Dutchman, "Flying Dutchman" prints out on your receipt. It's in the computer.</p>

<p>There is lots of information out there on the Internet about the secret menu, but no one seems to have gotten it all, and a lot of what is out there is just plain wrong. Nothing is more embarrassing than ordering a secret item that doesn't exist.</p>

<p>So, through dilligent research, we have managed to produce what we believe is the definitive guide to the In-N-Out secret menu.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/britney.php" onclick="window.open('http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/britney.php','popup','width=366,height=500,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false"><img align="right" vspace="7" hspace="7" src="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/britney-thumb.jpg" width="200" height="273" border="0" /></a>
Britney Spears has been straddling the line between innocent young thing and wanton sexpot for quite some time now.

Okay, she doesn't really <i>straddle</i> the line, as much as she mounts it and dry humps it like a cocker spaniel in heat. As she made clear in an early song, "She's not that innocent."
<p>
Spears burst onto the pop scene in her too-short skirts, knee socks and tops tied tightly under her budding-but-not-yet-silicone-enhanced mammaries. The combination of baby-toned voice, little-girl innocence and fetish-inducing Catholic schoolgirl outfits was guaranteed to make her a huge star among middle-aged Japanese businessmen--but suprisingly it made her a star among horny tone-deaf men in America, as well.
</p><p>
But the bigger suprise was that prepubecent girls found a new, talent-free role model to emulate. The popularity of low-rise jeans, low-cut tops and low-quality pop music can all be traced back to Spears--as well as any number of eating disorders.
</p><p>
But when asked about her pubescent sexuality, Britney's message was always straightforward: no sex until marraige. But what was the queen of the prick-tease really saying to her fans? You're about to find out.
</p><p>
Let's listen to a three-second clip from her first hit, "Hit Me Baby One More Time" two different ways.
</p><p>
<table border="0" width="100%"><tr><td align="center"><a target= "_new" href="http://www.badmouth.net/media/britney.mp3"><img alt="britney_good.jpg" src="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/britney_good.jpg" width="175" height="130" border="0" /></a><br /><font face="arial, helvetica, sans serif">Here's the clip played forwards:
<p>
<a target= "_new" href="http://www.badmouth.net/media/britney.mp3">Britney straight up</a>
</p><p>
<i>"...with you I lose my mind, give me a si-"</i></p></font></td><td align="center"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans serif"><a target= "_new" href="http://www.badmouth.net/media/britney_reversed.mp3"><img alt="britney_bad.jpg" src="http://www.badmouth.net/graphics/britney_bad.jpg" width="175" height="130" border="0" /></a><br />And here it is played backwards:
<p>
<a target= "_new" href="http://www.badmouth.net/media/britney_reversed.mp3">Britney reversed</a>
</p><p>
<i>"...sleep with me I'm not too young."</i></p></font></td></tr></table>
</p><p>
Backmasking, it's not just for crappy heavy metal bands that pretend to worship Satan anymore.
</p><p>
For the record, I did not discover this little gem. A saw it in a flash animation elsewhere on the Internet, but I doubted its validity. So I downloaded the mp3 on my own and used editing software to make the above example myself. It's completely legit.</p>

I can't be certain, but I'm pretty sure that �Nut Poppers� was also part of a hazing ritual on my high school's football team.<p>

Now Nut Poppers might be the tastiest snack food on the face of the Earth. But with that name, its time on the shelves of our nation's truck stops, Kwik-E-Marts and supermarkets is limited.</p><p>

So in the interest of preserving a short-lived piece of snack-food history, the Badmouth team leapt into action. I bought some Nut Poppers to conduct what may end up being the only recorded Nut Poppers taste test.</p>
