Would you queue for McDonalds?

What a miserable bunch of snobs. if a fast food outing is what people like, doesnt it say what normal is for them? This place is so out of touch with reality.

Not really fast food is it, with those queues? If I was in a super-posh restaurant and had to wait that long, I wouldn't be happy.

I wouldn't queue for one either. In fact i would go for something more up market such as a Rustlers Burger. 🍔💯

🤮

Would this be the same drivethrough takeaway that refuse to serve cyclists ?

BTW, do they serve motorcyclists ?

WTF? Snobs? Miserable? Fine; if people's lives revolve around a POS burger to the extent that they want to queue for hours - it's their time. But don't defend the sad nobbers. When it gets to the point that their behaviour affects other people, then we are perfectly within our rights to have a go at them, otherwise they aren't going to realise that they are being selfish, are they? OK, they probably don't give a sh1t, but that's another issue.
My original point is, that when they start blocking lanes on a roundabout, and access roads surrounding their precious McD's, then they need to be put right and told to GTF and stop being so feckin stupid!

It's not really about what food they're buying. Yes I used to eat McD every month or so, it's ok in moderation. It's more about queuing in cars whilst covid is going on. They're not queuing for exercise, nor to meet a single fmaily member, nor for essential food shops. It's just sitting there blocking roads and polluting for a very minor "want", not a need

I wouldn't eat that filth if you paid me; let alone queue for the priviledge.

Purveyors of nasty diabetes / obesity-fuel who seek to profit from the lazyness and short-term-gratification-seeking behaviour of brainwashed sugar-addicted muppets; off the back of factory farming, wage slaves and general corporate scumbaggery...

Everything you say I can completely agree with but very occasionally I do like a quarter pounder with cheese.

Good; someone else has actually read other posts before crashing in with how nasty it is to criticise these poor people who are only after a burger!

Oh completely. My next door neighbour is in his 70s. His Mother just passed away in her mid 90s but up until she shuffled off she would insist he drove her to the coast every single bank holiday "for a nice ride out".
I pointed out to him that they were both long since retired, and could choose literally any nice day of the week and enjoy less traffic than the hell that is bank holidays. I asked him if his Mum ever noted the hellish traffic jams and said anything akin to "oh, hang on, this traffic is awful isn't i, it's no longer a nice ride out like it was in 1949".

"Yes she says exactly that" he said, "but she insists on the bank holiday because that's just what she's always done. It's a tradition".

Utterly f*cking crackers, some people.

Ha Ha, my wife and I always look at the news in disbelief whenever we have a really hot day and they show the same photos (well they look the same) of Bournemouth and Brighton beaches with people crammed on shoulder to shoulder.. Virus or no Virus, who on earth wants to do that?

Didn’t you know that everyone on the forum is mortgage free, has a final salary pension, A six figure sum in savings, repairs their own bikes, builds their own wheels, grows their own veg, and cooks every meal from scratch!

Or only be in the queue for a healthy Smoothie and Salad bag anyway
