Krookie Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Ran into someone like that at my hockey tournement (in which my team was the best American team, only beaten once by some Canadian kids). The mother of one of the kids who we beat flipped out on us for getting into a small fist fight in the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calax Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 whee... just got a person yesterday who made a simple order... then when she got to my window (1st one, take the money and give em change) she asked "do you guys have the yogurt thing?" "yes... mc donalds has the yogurt parfait." "oh... i'll take ten." after she had ordered... after she had made me and the guy taking the order play 20 questions with her.... graah.... (plus we hardly ever have THAT many parfaits made in the store...) then a guy cussed at me today for giving him 2 quarters because he spent 3 minutes looking for the other two while I was paying his order.

Walsingham Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Once, in BK I had just purchased a large soda, and walking away it toppled off the tray and spilled everywhere. Naturally, I asked for a mop, since it was my damn fault. But they were so impressed I asked that they mopped up and gave me another free soda as a replacement. I always eat in BK now if fast food is required. Conversely I was in a KFC, and ordered chicken wings. The wings arrived and they were red raw, so naturally I asked for a refund and some properly cooked wings. I was told (not without sympathy) that the manager was an +donkey fundament+ and would insist on coming out to the restaurant in person before a refund could be given. In those days I was quiet and reserved, and waited patiently using my zen ninja skills. These days I'd have yelled at him. Cretin. The moral of the story is: don't take poisoned apples from wizened old crones. What is wrong with you people? What kind of irrestible sales gimmick do you think a crone is, anyhow? "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

Walsingham Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I think it was an excellent idea for a film. But McDs never EVER siad you should eat in there morning noon and night. I think for his next film he should hit Baskin Robbins. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Surreptishus Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Morgan Spurlock has said that he doesn't believe anyone eats McD like he did all the time but there are people who have equally or far unhealthier diets as you see in the film. He also cuts down on exercise too. Mcdonalds was chosen because its a massive global chain and the most popular fast food place in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalimeeri Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I think it was an excellent idea for a film. But McDs never EVER siad you should eat in there morning noon and night. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> True. But people do. What's sad is that those kind of habits are being ingrained into the children as well--I worked with a girl who stopped by McD's every morning on her way to the day care and bought her kids french fries for breakfast. Guess what lunch was? And she was most always too tired, too busy, etc. to cook dinner. I don't think it's as simple as a physical addiction, but he did have something there. I can't think of any other reason why people would wait in a line that snakes around the corner, as opposed to going to the Wendy's right next door, which is practically empty. I've been to that McD's, and I know it has nothing to do with the service or outstanding quality or freshness. I wouldn't go there even if I hadn't watched the film.
