As an LA born local - it will never be that new name, that lease will never run for 20 years, it's an Enron waiting to happen.

Is it just me, or does the security guard's "loadout" bother you less than the sign behind him that says "Not A Exit"? 😅

As a word nerd I love that the papa johns story had Mero confusing the possessive with the plural
