What's the age when you want kids to experience new things, yet make sure they're old enough to appreciate and remember what they're doing? D©Bloom's shot of a youngster enjoying Ben's Chili Bowl and the parents' expectant-yet-instructional looks (note the dad making a "You need to blow on it" face) brings back some of these early memories, like losing my Mickey Mouse ears on Space Mountain and having my first Kohr's orange cream frozen custard on the Jersey Shore. EXIF.

Great shot!
It's never too early to get your colon ready for the punishment Ben has in store for you. Fight the good fight, kid. Whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. And they're doing wonders now with charcoal-activated underwear. O brave new world that has such wonderful undergarments in it!
Monkey, just once, could you make a comment without including shit?
Oh, sorry. I was out taking a dump. What was that again?
Hear hear! Shit cum shit cum shit cum. Honestly Monkeyrotica, is that really what you spend your day (and all day every day at that) focusing on, just busting to talk about? I knew as soon as I saw that photograph what you'd have to say. You're the epitome of predictability....
wow, if you people don't like it, then why not just ignore him.
jesus christ, if you're a commenter here, you know what to expect from certain people.
Please, IMGoph, like you've never commented negatively on something you've seen online.
Monkey's poo is what keeps us all going some days.
i've commented on it, but i don't think i've full-blown ranted like you did.
Yeah, leave him alone.
"And then... they came for monkeyrotica ... And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
Some of us need our daily dose of Monkey ass. And since Ben's does taste like shit (and that's being very kind) Monkey is 100% correct on this one.
You may consider it predictable, but some of us find that reliability comforting. In an everchanging world, Monkey is the touchstone of fecal humor.
Jeeze. Talk about blaming the victim. Sure, it's MY fault for getting violent diarrhea from the chili cheese halfsmokes at Ben's. And, sure, it's MY fault that I keep coming back every couple weeks. But I have this condition called anterior retrograde amnesia. Since my injury I can't make new memories. Everything fades. If we talk for too long I'll forget how we started and next time I see you I won't remember this conversation. So if I seem a little strange or rude, or repetitive...I've told you this before, haven't I?
Remember Sammy Jankis.
You got Monkey all wrong! In addition to all of the scat and sex comments, he's full of great Simpsons quotes.
The Simpsons quotes are also cursed.
But some of us think it's funny! Although "poop" is funnier than "sh*t."
Some tourists from AZ were asking me about BCB one day on the metro. I told them to stay away if they had sensitive stomaches and that if they were determined to go, to bring some Pepto. The one guy gave me a puzzled look, but I know if they went they would be thankful for my advice.
Fuck Bens Chilli Bowl. (FBCB #117 since 10/10/08 in the DC blogosphere)
looks more like a chew face than a blow face to me
Insert standard blog cynic comment re: Ben's being overrated and making you poop fire *here*
But of course FEET are right in the center of the POTD.
Told'ja....Feet....Ben's Chili Bowl...CHUD's....and the scarey thing that we assume that the kid knows the man touching him.
You say sh*t.
I say shat.
You say natch
I say snatch.
Sh*t! Shat! Natch! Snatch!
Let's get a Thesareus!
You know a place is lame when hipsters start bringing their kids there.
now 'hipster' is a word worth banning...
i think you have it backwards—the place becomes lame when the hipsters get run out by the lame-ass indiana tourists.
As if it wasn't already clear that the word "hipster" has no meaning at all, you have given us further proof. The dude is wearing a t-shirt and jeans, a short haircut, and what looks like a digital watch. How can you add up those practically generic visual signals and get "hipster" is completely beyond me . . .
Basically "hipster" just means "some relatively young person I have arbitrarily decided to dislike."
White guy with t-shirt 2 sizes too small + found around 13th & U participating in "urban experiences"....that's enough evidence for me.
"Son, it's SUPPOSED to taste like ass. Now eat!"
"Son, your grandma and I thought it was time for you to experience your first chili-induced explosive diarrhea, and we could think of no better place than the restaurant where President Obama experienced his first chili-induced explosive diarrhea."
Can we poo it? YES WE CAN!
Now, which way to the can? I gotta go! Can you get the check!?!
Thanks for the compliments, folks!
Good to know my photo has inspired some enlightened debate.
poop.
