I haven't been to a Mc Donald's in more than 5 years...I remember trying it a very long time ago....in a galaxy far, far away.

Anyways, speaking of good ole Americana, I waited until now to bother buying tickets - so I'll only be seeing EP 7 on the 24th. Not sure how I'll avoid spoilers.

I feel like I'll need to lock myself in my room, black out all the windows, and wear a tinfoil hat - that **** is everywhere.

Where I live, McDonald's got the better fries and uses better quality meat for their chicken Nuggets. It's not Pink Slime/MSM as it does have a fibery texture to the meat. But, Burger King is better in everything else.

Which means a friend of mine and I now and then takes a trip to BK for a meal, and then finishes it off by going to McD drive-tru for nuggets. He got a car, and we're both fat assholes with no control.

Fries and happy meals are the only good things about McDonalds. its burgers suck.

Nuh uh, man. Texas Sonic is like Heaven's Very Own Manna.

*Powder* · 12-09-2015, 10:07 PM

Sonic has good tater tots & shakes, enjoyable condiments, & an alright chicken toaster. The rest can kick rocks. All flair, no care.

Ugh, don't get me started. Sonic could never get my d@mn burger right! How hard is it to understand "no onions"?! Give me BK any day. Or Wendy's.

This is my experience with Whataburger and... Taco ****ing Bell, of all things. They have put onions on my burritos despite me telling them no onions for over a decade across three states.

One time Sonic ****ed up my CHILI CHEESE TOTS by putting NO chili and a MINIMAL amount of cheese on them. The only time this has happened. Usually, they treat me well.

But the best places are Del Taco and Wienerschnitzel anyway, and I don't live by either one.

Whenever my dad goes to the VA in... I don't remember what town, I BEG him to bring me back Del Taco. It's what I ask for on my birthday, too. I'm addicted.

The problem is people who don't like onions. F***ing crybabies.

Sound like my wife, throwin' a fit when she asks for "No cheese" and they give her cheese. Most people in the world don't have any cheese and would kill to have some, just f*cking EAT IT!

I'm not crazy about onions, but I don't care if it's in my sandwich/burger or not since eating it at the same time as the meat will make it tastier.

As for cheese... WAIT who doesn't like cheese?!

~~Leo656~~ · 12-10-2015, 12:02 AM

Picky eaters are the goddamn bane of my existence. It all comes out the same color. EAT IT!

Full disclosure: For a good chunk of my life, "milk" was a luxury and "corn flakes, water and sugar" was a meal. So yeah, "picky eater" is one'a my buttons.

My wife loves cheese in general, just not on her burger, which is even more stupid. Like she can eat a burger and a piece of cheese concurrently, but god help you if you put the cheese inside the bun. CRAZY!

*Prowler* · 12-10-2015, 12:03 AM

I was a very picky eater as a kid. Nowadays I can pretty much eat anything.

~~Leo656~~ · 12-10-2015, 12:05 AM

Me too actually. Like the foods on my plate couldn't even touch.

Livin' on food stamps has a way of fixing that overnight, thankfully.

*Netkeeper* · 12-10-2015, 03:03 AM

I've lived on food stamps and while I've tried to get better about my picky eating, I can't help it. I'm sensitive to the textures of a lot of foods.

*Candy Kappa* · 12-10-2015, 03:14 AM

KFC had the best brand junk food. I gored myself on that **** when I was studying in UK, sadly we don't have KFC on Norway. Nor do we have Pizza Hut.

Or people who don't like the pickles on their burgers. Blows my mind, man.

#end pickle prejudice#

*Candy Kappa* · 12-10-2015, 04:59 AM

the single pickle slice that's in a burger don't taste anything, I don't really see the reason to split open the burger to remove. But, I don't really see the reason to have it on, it's like waste of space that could have bee filled with something else, like more sauce or something good.

Addictions are nasty, but mental disorders aren't cured by sheer will, it just doesn't work like that.

The US is so far behind the rest of the world with their understanding of mental health issues, it's frightening. Asking a bi-polar patient to not turn manic is a bit like asking someone why they let themselves get the flu, and just get over it.

Addictions are mental disorders, too.

Some would argue that's not really the case at all. I'm not an expert in the field, I just wanted to share the limited experience I've had with someone struggling with something that was in no way at all, a choice. Addictions, the majority of the time, are by choice in the begining. It's a fine line, but it's there.

This idea is gaining popularity though:

I was a smoker for 20 years. I kicked cold Turkey. I still crave everyday, 3 years later. I guess the difference here, is that I could choose to not smoke. You can't choose to be or not be bi-polar.
The girl i knew would also self medicate, but in her scenario, a glass or three of wine had a very different result for her, than someone who was neurotypical. Similar to the rat in the above example, she went seeking anything to fix her. Unlike the rat, it wasn't due to a lack of social support or friends or a good job etc...the disease helped her make the choice, and everything snowballed from there.
