that orange fecal treacle spreads fast

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

They might need to bump up those prices a bit to keep their profits at record highs.

What a grotesque company, through and through.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

And a month from now they're back to normal. Writing news about the price of individual stocks fluctuating is completely meaningless.

Think it was from trump handling food without a license?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why does the food need to be licensed..?

Rough week for Ronald

So grateful to have In-N-Out near me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

To be fair, these quarter pounders became "in-n-out" burgers too

Why would someone downvote this

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Went there once. Wasn't bad, but wasn't really good either... 100% do not understand the hype.

Similar experience at Whataburger.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

This place never holds up against any local place. I honestly feel like their food tastes terrible... Like, what's with the fries?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

In-N-Out is definitely overrated. Their burgers are fine, maybe even good, but the fries are fucking trash. You can't be a restaurant with 2 things on the menu and have one of them be awful.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I’m a big fan of their fecal free burger

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Never have I been more confident in my decision to go to Burger King for my fast food dalliances.

support your local hole in the wall please.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

The "holes in the wall" in my area are all more expensive than fast food because the rich farm owner yuppies come to cosplay rural living in my town.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

They only hole in the wall most places is a glory hole at the Pilot or Loves truck stop, and neither have a drive thru anyway.

He really should have warn gloves

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

He said his hands were clean.

Which, to me, says he doesn't wash them after he uses the bathroom.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

He licked his fingers and didn't taste anything so they're good.

Anything that Donald Trump touches, dies

Did the outbreak happen to originate in Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago

That's what happens when you let a diaper wearing man in your kitchen.
