It was established back in the 80s that 'they always fuck you at the drive through':

If you eat at MacDonalds you deserve all you get (which is usually a flattend dog turd in something that once resembled bread in a former life).

I rarely go to any of these places but prefer McD chips to BK ones.

The BK burgers are far superior though.

Do they still do 'Whoppers'?
I always got a childish enjoyment asking for 2 whoppers


Yep - AND Double-Whoppers, D-W with cheese, D-W with cheese and bacon!

Go on - knock yourself out!!

"Care to point out the axe grinding?"

He was making more of a political point than a health one. All it was was more thinly disguised bash the American imperialists crap.

Mmm yummy.
I don't even know where the nearest one is.
Perth or Dundee I expect although I do know there's a small one at Kinross motorway services.

In a very similar scenario I've bought takeaway pizzas from a nearby Pizza Hut in the past and when I've got home have found that the pizza has fuck all topping on it. I'm sure it's done on purpose, as you're not likely to open the box and check when collecting it!


Couple of months ago, our local Domino's accidentally sent our order, which I was sat waiting for, out with their delivery driver.  Cue much apology and a fresh order, with a full refund.  Just as the new order was being handed over, the original one arrived back with the driver (who'd only been out 15 mins and the food is carried in heated packs anyway).  I was then offered the original order as well.  Double the order, about 35 quids worth.  For free.  BARGAIN!

How long did it take you to eat it all?
