    “Police said the spoiled doughnuts were “destroyed.”” Quote ‘destroyed’, umm hmm.

    " Krispy Kreme reported the incident to the police and reassured customers then that it was “working to replace the 10,000 stolen doughnuts,” the BBC reported." Now New South Wales has to consume 2X the donuts just to catch up, cant have corporate taking the loss. Diabetes incoming.

    “In September, a very different kind of doughnut truck heist was also caught on camera more than 7,000 miles away: Two bears on an Alaska military base raided a Krispy Kreme doughnut van that was stopped outside a convenience store during its delivery route.” Yay Bears!!

    I remember when this first was reported, and I wondered what the plan was; I mean what do you do with 10K donuts.

    I can destroy 10k doughnuts too. I can also destroy a bathroom toilet in the process.

        All the fun wacky parts, but without most of the cruel authoritarian shit. Except for being racist towards black people.

          I guess you haven’t heard of the Murdock news problem over there.

            Well aware. Spent a bunch of time over there and my wife lived and worked in Victoria not too long ago.

            Still, when it comes to public policy around health care, woman’s rights over their body’s, access to weapons, the transition to renewable energy, etc, they make the US look like Max Max Fury Road.

              Technically abortion isn’t actually legal in Australia. Technically. And in some places nearly impossible without driving a real long way.

                To be fair, lots of stuff is nearly impossible without driving a long way in Australia. That’s just Australia.

          99% sure the only reason we rarely hear about Australian racism is because of how successful they’ve been in segregating natives from colonizers.

      Nah, QLD is Australia’s Florida, NSW is more like it’s Texas.

      You’d be surprised what a squad of cops can do on break.

    You don’t particularly understand the capitalist system you’re rebelling against as a criminal if you steal a rig. Their masters have them on GPS at all times. You’d have to actually make the deliveries if you want to get away with it. But now you have a job.

    Can it really be worth spending 20 years in prison to nab a few Krispy Kremes? I never thought they were all that good anyway, kind of sickly sweet if you ask me. I mean I could stealing a truckload of chocolate, maybe - or a truckload of gold bars, but not donuts.

      Amazon’s air packing materials have more cake than their raised dough produces, but I like donut glazing, and they slather those little hollow circles.

      My donut preference is a warm maple old fashioned from my local mom and pop place, but I’m not gonna lie, if you give me a Krispy Kreme, I’m going to eat that shit.

        Donuts are supposed to be light and airy. What, you get mad at whipped cream and soufflés too?

        Don’t get me wrong, those cake circles that you can get in a bag at the gas station or dunkin are good if you have nothing else around, but nothing beats a fluffy, sweet, melt in your mouth, hot of the line Krispy Kreme (or equivalent non-cake airy style, ykwim) donut.
