An employee at a doughnut shop, Stan’s Donuts in Chicago — you spell donuts, we spell doughnuts, let’s call the whole thing sticky sweet, from my head to my feet, yeah — claimed on reddit yesterday to pay respects to the late, great Mitch Hedberg by printing out Hedberg’s joke on customer receipts. “I was given the ability to control what gets printed on the receipts at the doughnut shop where I work. This is the first thing I did.” (via GrubStreet) Mitch Hedberg FTW...
