Jackson Jambalaya

Jackson residents work in Madison and this is the result- an inside job "robbery". Madison residents work in Jackson and Jacksonians whine that that's the problem. Really?!

The Griffin boys are wearing a work shirt with a logo on it. Can you tell what it is?

Note to self:

Never hire anyone named Fakeshia or Lakebra or Quandius; add those names to the list.

Who was the BK manager? I thought the "victim" said there was one male robber, appearing about 16 years old, who fled on foot. Has that story held up?

Quanduis Laquatate ? You have to be kidding.

"Quanduis Laquatate ? You have to be kidding."

"Chokwe Lumumba" ain't no joke either - so get used to it!

2:07

wrong, chokwe is a joke.

Hey 1:14 PM-- I don't think it's the Golden Arches. Such nice clean cut young people. I'll bet they are articulate too.

I hope Sam's Club has the good sense to not hire all of its current workforce for the new Madison Store.

Your honor, I'd like to point out that my mother named me "Quanduis Laquatate."

Just let that sink in, your honor. "Kwan-doo-iss Lack-wa-tate." Now, I ask you, with a name like that, what the hell do you seriously expect me to do other than commit crimes? From the day I was born, my options were pretty much "wide receiver" and "criminal." And I really can't run all that fast, your honor. If I could, I wouldn't be here.

8:28- Winner!! I do believe this is one of the funniest posts I have read in awhile.

8:28 Love it!

Those are Burger King polos.

The polos are Burger King polos.

Yeah, but anybody can buy a burger king polo on e-bay. Which I'm sure these dudes did . . .

@ Liz.....RIGHT!

@ 8:28....Hillarious. Ding Ding Ding ~ Winner!

So many of 'those people' get the preacher to name they baby. I'll get me one of those reference Bibles and do some research. I know lacwatate is a derivative of lactate but am stumped otherwise.

Quanduis Laquatate "For pain associated with severe stupidity take one pill every 4 hours."

I thought laquatate was for personality disorders? Who knew? Its a damn miracle drug!!!!!

7:53 are a idiot

I still say someone being robbed at a bank west of interstate 55 who then drives back across the interstate through thick traffic and to his place of work to pick up the damned telephone and report the robbry....somethin' ain't quite right about this here thang. You ain't gotta be no brain professor to know that is bull shit. One of the pubescent boys will rat the manager out and that will be that. Bulldoze this fu**ing place.

7:20 Thanks. I missed that puzzling detail. That makes the story even less believable than it already was.

Given the bizarre redneck names that could be thrown around from Bubba to Delay and Jonlyn to Murlene and the additions of a Jo or Lyn to nearly every name, I don't think we should be casting stones!

Don't try to create false equivalency here, 7:33. Yes, rednecks occasionally come up with dumb names, but they rarely go beyond putting "Jo" at the beginning of a standard name. Rednecks do not even approach either the bizarre creativity or the frequency of strange names you see in poor black communities.

In other words, "Lurlene" is more like "Lakesha" than it is like "Quanduis Lackwatate".

Use to think some of the names I heard were absolutely bizarre. Until I started reading the bible and reading some of the names. Chedorlaomer, Melchizedek, or Onesiphorus. That stopped me from thinking ill of folks with names that were hard for me to pronounce.

I guess my response to 10:03 was deemed unacceptable. Ouch.

Let me try it this way: there's a big difference between (1) traditional names from another culture that sound odd to us; and (2) picking out random syllables. Neither is objectively right or wrong, but the latter imposes lifelong costs on the child. Fair or unfair, it conveys a lack of education and other pathologies.

In other words, no one SHOULD be denied a job because they're named "Laquatate". But the reality is that they WILL be denied a job for that reason, and criticism of the parent for failing to consider that is therefore legitimate.

They always have that same "I was trying to keep it real" look in their eye.

The take on this robbery could not have monied up to much split 4 or 5 ways. A portion of our society has no sense and can't even figure out risk vs. reward when committing a crime. This isn't Oceans 11, its Burger King, you don't need 5 people involved. Get it together criminals!

Two store employees (shown wearing BK logo shirts) told the other boy when the shift manager would leave the store with the deposit. Both appeared in Dale Danks' courtroom at Madison Municipal Court today. Madison PD currently has no evidence that the BK shift manager was involved in the crime. This from WLBT at 6:00 tonite.

BK might want to rethink it's 'management potential' model. Again, a man robbed at gunpoint outside a bank who drives two miles to pick up a phone to report the robbery might occasionally make poor business decisions for the company.

In fact, I wonder if the kitchen were on fire if he would continue making change at the drive-thru window.

Stopped at this BK today just to see if the 'regular manager' was still on duty. Noticed a dude in the parking lot hosing away the cigarette butts. He came inside and went behind the counter and started bagging orders. Nas-TEE.
