Is Chinese Papa John's any different?

Is this an actual place?

I'm eating Papa John's on the 11th floor of an apartment building in Beijing, Haidian district.

I'm happy for you bro. (Not sarcasm, glad to hear from you.)

Also, I'll tell Trainman to come and drop in. An early 2000s reunion would be pretty neat!

I think the older Mario fans (and users of this board) are getting to a point in life where they're too busy to poke around on a Mario message board and younger fans aren't coming in at a replacement rate. Then there's what TheMightyThor brought up: Kids today have so much forms of entertainment to choose from . Besides videog ames and iOS games and what not, there's skype, and Twitch, and Youtube. Probably other things I'm not hip enough to know about, even. If Mario is still bringing in the kiddies at a high rate, then they seem to be congregating somewhere else. If Mario isn't bringing in the kiddies, then the truth is far too horrible to contemplate. : (

I could never leave this place, not entirely -- it's like an old town you used to live in, fallen off the map but chugging along all the same.

Yep -- there are way too many memories for me here. This place will likely never leave my bookmarks tabs. Even as the number of daily posts dwindles, I'm sure there will still be a few folks who drop by the old inn.

Fungi Forums has always been, without exception, the first tab I have open in my browser since I signed up.

I honestly will never stop loving this place. Or Glorb.

It actually even kind of worked in the wrong thread.

No, exactly the same in Beijing. But Pizza Hut is different (worse).
That appears to be a place somewhere in the world (OFC), but I don't think it's a chain restaurant.

...and I've never liked Pizza Hut in the first place. It's hard for me to imagine a *worse* Pizza hut.

The crust is stuffed with communist dissidents.

Yeah, what is it with the Pizza Hut out here? The Pizza Hut franchise in WAGA-NIPPON (Japan) is also a sad affair, largely thanks to having bowed to the irrational demand for mayonnaise on pizza.

Also, hello again Forest Guy, sorry I'm late to the party.
