We Need an Asteroid to Hit Us So We Can Start All Over.

As many of you know, I hate going to Boracay for the same reasons many of you hate going there also--its way too commercialized.  You get raped by boat fees, beach fees, terminal fees, sand fees and just about every reason they can think of to make you pay for something.  It doesn't end there, with every 4 steps you take on the beach, you're stopped by someone who is trying to sell you low-quality shades or a "Birth of Christ" handicraft.  There are billboards and flyers everywhere.  The icing on this rotting cake is that major fastfood chains have opened up restaurant sized establishments right on the beach (Yes, Shakey's I'm talking about you and that massive branch you decided to put on the walkway in Station 2).  This type of fuck-you-landmark-but-I-need-to-make-some-money attitude happens globally. I've sat at a Starbucks at the foot of the Edinburgh Castle in Scotland.  I get it.  Seize the opportunity.  My question to you my faithful readers is this: Which world landmark would be most ruined if a fastfood chain decided to setup shop in the immediate vicinity?  Perhaps the correct answer is in this video.  Thanks for your consistent comments.

Look! There's a delivery number on the window! WTF? Where the hell are you going to deliver pizza in that area?  If it's via camel, do I get 50% off if it's over a 35-45 minute wait time?
