Gave the hoof up right before the turn of the century.  Almost 26 years now.  Can't have that land animal plaque clogging up my Spectrum nodes in the brain you know!    I'd have to smoke twice as much weed to get that shit outta there!   Mainly plant based/Mediterranean style diet/seafood since '99.  Along with at least a mile or more walk every morning.

I can go to Bad Luck Burger in east and get a deluxe, tots, drink for the same price as a BK whopper meal. The quality of food and taste is 50x better. 

 

Only fast food I ever do anymore is chik-fil-a when the wife is hungry and mcdonalds breakfast on rare occasions.

I looked at it to get Rewind again.  I didn't see any information about it.  Any information about it coming back. I'm not paying $360yr for something that got worse-not better. 

 

Then switch to an IPTV service.

LOL.  I actually think Burger King and McDonalds both suck.  Haven't eaten at one of those places in over a decade.

[OilerTitanHybrid]

Only McD's item I'll still eat occasionally is the fish filet.  After all these years they still haven't fucked it up too much yet.  Decent wild Alaskan pollock, bit smaller than it used to be of course!

Gabbys is the place to go for a great comfort burger.

 

As for this news, I thought thos was a known and likely development. This new streaming app for them is a big deal for them and their parent company. They are going all in on live sports streaming and in the US thar means controlling the football market which they absolutely do in both college and NFL. They've had a budding good business relationship with NFL production for a few years now.

 

The biggest story is actually their deal with WWE. That's a huge new market they are now major players in

[oldschool]

espn sucks. Espn+ is a horrible product and their espn bet app has bombed. It doesn't matter how good the market is for streaming when ESPN hasn't been able to execute despite nearly every advantage over the last 15+ years. They'll fuck this up too, bet on it.

Fast food is gross

Gabbys has some good fries and its a nice environment. If i want fast food-isf, Bad luck you can pull up and park at their truck and be out in under 5 min.

What did they pay you for this ad?

[TitanTheGiant]

Say what you will, but the Whopper with cheese and bacon is still pretty fire. The big fish aint bad either. Everything else there though I havent had in years.

Might not be the food so much as it's the customer service. Chick Fil A is an anomaly in that thay way. Their customer service is phenomenal. You always see long lines there, but those lines are always moving

 

If you have good customer service, even if the food isn't great, you will retain customers. People aren't looking for best meal they'll ever have at a fast food place, but they would like decent service.

They hire good help and have enough help to keep things running smoothly. The other fast food joints have employees that are sullen and disengaged or they act like they hate their jobs. Of course Chik-fila discriminates against gays and is probably far right on the political spectrum, but they do know how to run a business.

Pic of the local BK shortly after rush hour last night, 'bout 6:15pm.  Drive thru was hopping pretty decent.  Need to see scine's 1 car drive thru pic soon!

I'm willing to bet those things are connected.  Two people attempting to run a Wendy's during lunch hour (true story) vs the Chick fil A staff (I counted FIVE people outside helping with just the drive-thru, I don't know how many were in the kitchen or at registers inside).  

 

Sure, there might be some people that are more naturally gifted with "customer service," but it is how much shit each person has to deal with.  Whoever is in charge of that Wendy's is a penny-pinching dumbass and will lose their business.
