Today, while soaring around the city as Sky Doggos tend to do, I couldn’t help but notice the little things that drive me insane. Among the clouds, soaring high above the hustle and bustle, I stumbled across a Subway that made me do a double take. Why, you ask? Because they’ve decided to change their classic logo to something that tries way too hard to look “modern.”
That logo had character! It was simple, it was recognizable, and let’s be honest, it was a piece of our collective food culture. Now, it’s all sleek, minimal, and—dare I say it—bland.
What happened to those deliciously affordable, no-frills five dollar subs that made a Subway visit a joyous occasion? I still have the commericals stuck in my head to this day. I long for the days where I could fly through the skies, pick up a sub for a mere five pieces of paper, and still have change left over for a cookie! Now, I have to look at inflated prices and wonder if I should take out a rainday loan just to grab a sandwich. It's absurd! The sheer joy of biting into a foot long without breaking the bank is a feeling I long for.
Subway, I’m calling you out! Bring back the five-dollar footlongs, and maybe I’ll consider forgiving their “modern” look. Until then, I’ll just be up here in the skies, venting my frustrations to the clouds!
What’s next? Are they going to change the bread recipe too? Ugh!
Rant over!
Here is an old Subway commercial for nostalgia's sake. I remember seeing these on television when I was a young Sky Pup.
