What is a sled there? Is it what we call a snowmobile?

Here a sled is just a piece of wood with metal runners. We don't really drive it... We just ride it down a hill.
Yeah, it’s a snowmobile. Sled is the most common word for those things in the SNOWY states of America.😂

Over here they call it “snøskuter”.

McDonald's is a cool place to dine in in other countries. One place I went there were professional types eating there during lunch, other places there may be kids' parties. The local one here feels slightly dangerous, some vagrants there and people hustling outside or inside for money etc.

Sounds like the McDonald's in the town next to the town where I w*rk. A bit of gang presence there (in west Tennessee? WHAT?!) and I don't go there. Ever.

But that would fit very well with the theme of this thread. Something you like doing, that can hurt you. If the grease don't kill you, maybe a bullet will. :cautious:

What is your McDonald's? What do you do, that you always regret, but you know you'll do it again later?

Energy drinks?

Bad romantic relationship?

Something you're allergic to, but eat anyway?

The latest Netflix series, that you know won't be good, but you watch anyway?
1.i do not eat at McDonald's but i don't condemn the place either. 2. i don't do anything that i'll regret later. 3. vitamin water drinks, homemade energy drink with spinach, blueberries, bananas, chia seeds, miscellaneous nuts, cacao goji chunks, honey & water. 4. who hasn't had 1? 5. nothing.

My McDonalds is only a few minutes away. I eat breakfast there almost every morning.
Ok I am gonna jump in long enough to say that my nephew and his fiance have introduced us to Buc-ees. If you don't know what that is, well you don't live in the south. Anyhow, their breakfast is really good and I'm not a fan of fast food breakfast.

Ain’t no Buc-ee’s in Conecuh county, but maybe it’s too few people around to make it worth the effort?

I've been all over the country but don't believe I've see a Buc-ees. My first Carolina BBQ Sandwich was in a little store attached to a gas station that was half restaurant and half store.

Started in Texas, Buc-ee's is now in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee with plans to open new stores in Colorado, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Wisconsin. So their information says.

Cheeseburger at local burger place. Not the healthiest meal, but it's tasty.

McDonald's has served its purpose. It's fast, efficient, the food....doesn't kill you. It's got variety. It's usually within walking distance of practically any town, small or large. And it provides breakfast, lunch, or dinner for any appetite. It's really a spectacular piece of capital consumerism. And I've been there. Plenty of times. Everybody has.

Now, though, I don't go much unless I have to. What drives me away are the kiosk. I hate using the kiosk. I know why it's happening, but for some reason I won't use them. It's bad enough not getting what you ordered from an actual person, but when you do it yourself it's just unforgiveable.

I'd say soda.


I drink it all the time. And very rarely drink anything else.


Diabetes, here I come. 💀

I think my McDonald's may be Burger King.

Jim Gaffigan covered that too.

By the way if you care what the royal family is up to, that's not McDonald's. That's Burger king. That's not even our gossip.
