Lol, that was Staples is suck, back in the heyday of ATHD.

Yeah, but I still use it for everything here. I always wonder if any old timers pick up on it.

Oh yes we do! As a matter of fact, many times when we pass by a Staples, my wife will utter those famous words. Some life, huh?

bruce lee v.s. coke?

Nope it is an episode of The Simpsons

Scroll down to 'Analogies" to see where it comes from.

Haha I thought I was the only one who remembered Staples is suck. That and the wounded Staples children, where Staples could be replaced by whatever online store didn't let us in on their misprint/typo. It definitely was AT Hot Deals. FW didn't even exist back then.

I don't know if it is an internet sensation I'm pretty sure this originated here:

1. Step one
2. Step two
3. ???
4. Profit

And it was actually a Fatwallet thing.

Fatwallet didn't even exist yet when "Staples is suck" was originated on AT.

Many ferengi from HD went to FW when we banned posting coupon codes. They brought the phrase with them.


Edit: Just saw DayLaPaul's post. Just 543 posts in 8 and 1/2 years. Impressive!

Apparently, you have a life. What's it like? :p
