  • So I had an apt today and even with my shoes on and sweater I hadn't gained weight (doc wasn't concerned), so I decided to treat myself and had mcdonalds breakfast (I get fast food like 2 times a year maybe so big deal). Get ready for my first world problem. I'm almost home and I open my sandwhich and my mcgriddle has sausage. No egg or cheese. There's a different McDonald's closer to my house so I go to the drive through and they basically didn't want to help me because it was from a different McDonald's?!?! What?! Aren't you like the most corporate restaurant ever? Just give me egg and cheese. I'll put it on myself.

    Not that you actually want logic, because fuck the man, but even within corporations individual stores have to account for their individual inventories. I worked for Panera for a long time, and we would get customers from the other store down the street's screw ups all the time, and we could do nothing about it but be called names.
  • @NachosAndPeaches I got an oatmeal and a hashbrown the other day and I had accepted my shame. I opened the bag when I got to work and there was no hashbrown. I know those struggles a bit too well :(

    Once upon a time after a drunk night out with DH we decided to get some McDonalds and take it home with us. My drunken self cried when they had forgotten my fries and chili cheese balls. It was a disaster.

    Chili cheese balls? Why does every country have way better fast food than we do? The pizzas in Korea were to die for!

    Edit- cheese balls, not geese balls. Wow.

    It tastes even more amazing than it sounds. I have a McDonalds less than 500 m away from me and resisting going there everyday for them is very hard, but I'm proud of myself for not falling for temptation (yet).

    And seriously, the only fast food chains we have here are Burger King and McDonalds. I've never had Chipotle, In N Out, Taco Bell and all the other yummy places I always hear about.

    Edit: I forgot about the one KFC we have in Copenhagen

    McDonalds in Korea DELIVERS! Do they in Sweeden or Denmark? Do any places like that? Only pizza places and the occasional sandwich shop delivers where I am.
  • Things are getting real in the "abbreviations" thread lol gotta love all the "hags" up in here :joy:

    I always miss the good posts bc I skip over them bc the subject seems boring!

    Egypt delivers. You can have ANYTHING delivered. At ANY time. I was amazed. DH and I would order some candy from the local supermarket and McDonalds at 4 am. And the order is there in less than 15 min. It's amazing.

    Oh hell no! No hashbrown?! How do you forget to put a hashbrown in the bag?! I would have been livid.

    I've learned to check my food before I leave the parking lot now. I hate hate hate cheese, and every time I ask for something without it, it magically winds up on my beautiful hamburger. Yuck.

    Speaking of foreign fast food, Japan has some epic McD's menu items. But the Starbucks is even better. The drinks and bakery items are to die for, and taste so amazing and fresh.

    37 McDonald's Foods You Probably Haven't Tried

  • I've been craving In'N'Out for weeks now! One of my best friends was in California a few weeks ago and posted a picture of her burger. I wanted to strangle her through the computer. DON'T TEASE ME WITH THE UNATTAINABLE CRAVING. It's a 9 hour and 59 minute drive to the closest one (in TX).

    She might have thought that strangling was a bit extreme, though, considering she doesn't know I'm pregnant yet.
  • Burgerville is so much better than In N Out. In N Out isn't worth the line wait.

    I don't get fast food often enough to think these things through. Check my food whatttttt? Add in pregnancy brain and I was basically crying over my very dry and sad mcgriddle.

    I need details of these amazing menu items. Let's start a foreign McDonald's thread. In Israel they serve cucumber and tomato salad (it's just called Israeli salad in Israel and its served with literally every meal).

    Yeah I thought I was losing my mind too. It looks like it did end up getting deleted all together. Okay so I am not crazy or blind.

    You looked so happy!!!

    I was very girly but when I was about 5 or 6, my mom decided it would be nice to cut my hair short (pixie) with sideburns and some special effects on the crown that made me resemble not only a boy, but also a woodpecker. I hated it.

    That is tooooo cuteeeee.
    My mother also decided to give me a weird short hair cut when I was 5 which was a disaster because I had big thiiiiick wavy hair and she'd rather have me look funny than have to deal with my hair every day. Can't really blame her, I get the urge to cut it all off at least once a month.

    It's official. We need a GTKY baby picture thread.

    I was thinking the same!
  • I have been sick (yes I know I've complained a lot the last few days sorry). Anyway I've been sleeping like SHIT and waking up coughing all through the night. I literally slept better when DS was born than I have been. Anyway, since NyQuil didn't help I asked my dad for something stronger (he's a doctor) and he gave me Tylenol with codeine. Cool. I go to take it, and guess when it expired? Just guess!

    (I know that it's still safe to take just may not be as potent, at least my good friend whose a pharmacist approved me to take it still).

  • Going back to McD's (I know, I can't resist). This glorious image just popped up on FB.

    I guess in Japan they are now offering a 48pc. McNugget Bucket meal for only ¥1800. That's like $15-ish depending on exchange rates. My fat kid heart is jealous.
  • Ya know, I'm a little mad at McDonald's. I smoked so much weed before getting pregnant, and the only thing I ever wanted was a double cheeseburger with hashbrowns that entire time. Like I've actually timed trips around 10:30 so I could get both, to be reheated later for this purpose. It's been a constant gripe for like six years. Why the hell would the Gods of fate be cruel enough to roll out the breakfast any time menu whilst I'm pregnant and nothing tastes as delicious???

    Side note: Left over pizza for breakfast. There's vegetables on it.... That makes it healthy, right?

    OMG people compare my DD to Boo ALL THE TIME! So much so that for Father's Day I did a hand and foot print turned Mike and Sully with her picture in between and took a picture of her next to a Boo doll in Downtown Disney this summer.

    ETA: See siggy pic for best reference you'll get because I won't post a pic of her face on here, too many creepy people in the world today. But picture that she has big ginormous eyes just like Boo haha.

  • fell asleep. But for all curious minds, the medicine expired in August of 2008. Yup. My dads a medicine hoarder.
    I am totally a medicine hoarder. Expiring in 2008 is new for me. I think I don't throw things away because I am not sure of the environmentally friendly way to dispose of drugs.

    I hoard medicine because I grew up poor and I hoard things, generally. $0.25 for a can of carrots? Better get 60 cans. You never know when you're going to start REALLY craving canned carrots, and they don't go bad. Right?
  • I'm really sad Netflix is dropping Labyrinth and Dark Crystal in December!

    Also another random, the lyrics to the song, "Don't Stand so Close to Me" by the Police grosses me out.
