It was a fast food joint, McDonald's. It was actually a strange thing: they were testing what was a as-yet not existing product called "Chicken McNuggets" (yes THOSE Chicken McNuggets). It was a McD's at the side of Highway 95 and for some reason decided it was a good place to test them. There were reps from McD's and when the lady was handing them to us with our order (along with opinion sheet, samples of all the different sauces to try, etc.) she asked if we wanted plates. "Duh, yeah" should have been my response but I was just a kid at the time.GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:Umm, what would the alternative be? Cup your hands?
Just exactly what kind of place were you in?

Road kill is extinct?drcorey wrote:nah, just pop some in my face next time you see my mouth open...
I liked the McRib myself, but I heard the animal they made them from is extinct now.
Never! Not as long as there are open roads and a blatant disregard for speed limits.GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:Road kill is extinct?
is that possible?
Hmm, had she been reading the "Spiderwick" books?Syndrome wrote:Never! Not as long as there are open roads and a blatant disregard for speed limits.
Reminds me of my favorite story in Weekly World News, back when they actually printed some true "news of the weird" items. They had a story about a woman who pretty much dined exclusively on road kill. A Chicago DJ hunted her down and interviewed her on the air. She explained that she HAD to eat road kill because she'd away on a vacation and when she returned, gypsies had taken over her house. No one would help her remove them, so she had nothing and was reduced to dining on whatever the road provided.
Seriously. She was dead serious. I wonder if no one would help her get rid of the gypsies because no one could see them but her.
It was probably Road Kill Beef Jerky.Syndrome wrote:They had a story about a woman who pretty much dined exclusively on road kill.

Not everyone that eats road kill is a toothless hillbilly or crazy.Syndrome wrote: They had a story about a woman who pretty much dined exclusively on road kill.
Open roads......yes. It does not take a blatant disregard for speed limits to make road kill. Case in point. Several years ago I bagged my first deer, with my pickup truck at 40 mph. 5 mph less than the posted speed for that road. I missed the first two that crossed the road, could not avoid the third one. Ended up with 70lbs of venison from that one.Syndrome wrote:Never! Not as long as there are open roads and a blatant disregard for speed limits.
