30 Rock: Sandwiches Are the One True Human Commonality

From last night's 30 Rock: While driving in Georgia, Liz Lemon makes Jack Donaghy pull into a roadside Fatty Fat's Sandwich Ranch (not real), and she shares her world view: "All of human kind has one thing on common. The sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich." She then orders the Carp Po' Boy with Extra Chuckle. "Chuckle" was defined earlier as "the part of the pig between the tail and the anus."

Southern Fatty

So tired of being reduced to a cultural stereotype. There are good sandwiches in the south. Try again, 30 Rock!

And Tina Fey needs to put her glasses back on, she obviously can't proof read the scripts. Why else would she let this two bit comedy go on air!

I like how they made Stone Mountain, GA (a part of greater Atlanta) into Hickville, USA.

Stone Mountain is Atlanta's cheesy tourist-trap with amusement parks and stuff. It's not swine farming area, maybe that's an understated joke that the writers were making- or maybe they were making the same stupid generalizations and assumptions that they, themselves, were guilty of mocking in their comedic vignette.

Either way, the joke's on the South- as we can't win either way. I guess I'll go back to my tar paper shack and dry hump my cousin.
