When Lena Pelletier offered him a knife to cut the burger, the BoneCrusher replied, "Do I look like a little boy or an Ice Road Trucker?"

Ohhhh...SNAP! Oh no he di-ent! Whooo, Nelly. I can't wait till them ice road truckers hear about THIS! OH, DAMN. There's gonna be some payBACK. PAYBACK! Whooo! Bring it on, biatches! Cable television niche programming REPRESENT. DAYUM.

I imagine a couple hours after eating that, it should be renamed the Buttcrusher

But, fat families are the norm nowdays.

Do truck drivers typically travel with a family of four?

I know a lapdancer named "The Bone Crusher".

Not the exact story from that link, but I found these two that may be of help:

Dysart's was great back when I was in college. Now that I live in Los Angeles, I make it a point to visit that place every single time I'm back home.

Great food, great service, and open 24 hours a day...

The comically oversized hamburger; A.K.A. the go-to menu item for the advertising budget impaired.

It's the mighty Bonecrusher, just got back from Hell.
It crushed the the Devil and farked his wife and all the little demons as well.
Its got a big bad bone-crushing snake that crawls up and down its back.
It got out back a couple of bull dogs that it keeps high on crack!

/say Bonecrusher please don't crush my bones.
//It lost its hearing, so long ago.

///Even the little small flowers.

I love the fact it comes with a side of fries

 
voodoochild 2009-03-29 12:53:51 PM  
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Have a huge greasy meal then sit for 8 straight hours. Hellooooo stroke!

Is "Bonecrusher" truly the most appetizing name they could think of? Seriously, who hears of a food item named "Bonecrusher" and thinks: "mmm, I wants me some of that...". Call it the "Your eyes are bigger burger" or the "If Zeus made a burger..." or something. Those are just off the top of my head, but still... Bonecrusher?

"Hey Mom and dad, let's go down to the grill... I gots me a hankering for a Bonecrusher. You can get your usual Head trauma, Mary can eat my side order of Psychiatrist Dysfunction and for desert I was thinking we could split one of those big Sundays - the Herniated Disc in a Bowl served with crush Ligament. Sound good?"

A lot of the people who eat this kind of crap are doing so for the challenge - semi-competitive gluttony is about the only thing they can do better than the guy to the left and the guy to the right. The name's not intended to be appetizing, it's similar to naming a black diamond course the "Widowmaker", or a 5.12 climb with high exposure "Pucker Factor".

 
Smeggy Smurf 2009-03-29 01:27:07 PM  
Meh. Lots of people that do hard physical labor could eat that and be ready for dinner 5 hours later. Even us office workers that are bicycle commuters need to eat a lot. 3500 calories a day just to maintain weight isn't unusual.

All that it means is we can eat all we want and not be fat like everybody else. It's glorious being able to eat like a pig 3 meals a day and piss off the fat fat fatties.

It was named for a trucker named Bonecrusher. By the same token, I'm going to start referring to farkers that make comments without RTFA a Schmea.

The guy is glad people are seeing what logging is all about. Yes, the destruction of beautiful forests and the killing of the animals who inhabit them - how proud he must be. I hope he gets to experience his nickname first hand, when one of those trees he loves to destroy crushes his spinal column and leaves him a quad. Enjoy your burger, douchenozzle.

 
forestguy 2009-03-29 02:22:43 PM  
I've worked in the woods and many physically demanding outdoor labor jobs. Often times you basically need ridiculously large,fat meals to just keep going. And Im pretty slim.

Although it's probably better to split up your food intake. I imagine this thing, tasty as it seems, would affect someones productivity by making one super sleepy and take marathon bathroom breaks hehe

 
Ol Fart 2009-03-29 03:53:58 PM  
NewHairGrowth - when you have made your life completely paperless then you can biatch about logging.
So, let us know when you have figured out how to do without post-its, to-go coffee cups, toilet paper, cardoard, cereal (& other) boxes, etc, etc, etc..

On a brighter note, did anyone else notice that the article's author ate half a bonecrusher by herself?
mmmm - must be a BIG girl!
We like 'em "healthy" up hee-yah in Maine.

A pound of meat isn't a huge amount. I used to regularly eat 14 ounce burgers loaded with toppings for lunch when I was in college.

 
sabinelr 2009-03-29 07:26:08 PM  
I wanna see the milkshake that comes with the burger. Gotta wash it down. Bet it comes in a KFC bucket.

First 4 words---I knew it was Dysarts. Eaten there a number of times. Great food, great service, huge helpings.

There's a pub in downtown Bangor called The Whig & Courier (henceforth known as The Whig). They serve a steak sandwich loaded with uh, steak, pepperoni, ham, and bacon. They call it The Obituary. Try the chili, french onion soup, and seafood chowder while you're there, too.

zedster: no its Maine, even the truck drivers are gay there

As a lifelong Mainer (yes, -er, not -ah), I get the biggest kick out of the stereotypes we get here. In this case you must be confusing us with Vermont, because that's the gay mecca, not Maine. Actually most people in Maine are hicks who hate gays. Us southern Mainers are far enough from Boston to not be douchebag Massholes (for the most part), and the Maineah accent really isn't that prolific in these parts. And we do have metropolitan areas, we all don't live in log cabins. As a matter of fact, I can go to any kind of store to buy anything, without having to battle traffic, within 15 minutes.

/been around the country and still like it here the best
//people in Vermont are gay
///people in Cali are pretentious
//people in Georgia make good BBQ
/slashies for all

I dunno, HabitOne. To me, Portland is like a mini-Boston. I just don't get a good vibe when I'm there. Doesn't feel like Maine.
