  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    McDonald's burgers are not the best, but they'll do
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    sez the royal cow
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    they'll do for what?

    certainly not for eating
  • mcdonalds burgers are wonderful for when you have a 5 dollar bill you need to break for bus fare and are also a wee bit peckish
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    they'll do as food when better foodstuffs are not available
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    but yes, Baby Ruths are quite like Snickers...es

    in that both are unpleasant

    of course not

    here in the good old us of a we use them for building materials

    there are probably more American candy bars but since American chocolate is rarely sold over here i am unqualified to assess them
  • i wonder, do they have white castles in the UK?
  • upon googling, it would seem not


    you fortunate souls
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch

    i've never seen one

    are they that bad?

    i wonder... it's possible McDonald's is nicer in the US than the UK, thinking about it

    like how Cadbury chocolate is supposed to be nicer in the UK than in America, or how Guinness is said to be best in Ireland
  • at white castle the burgers are 69 cents and you can order them in increments of 10, 20 and 100

    i guess that is a possibility.

    over here they've been focusing on this slightly sub-starbucks McCafe thing for a while now because nobody goes out to eat and grabs crappy food anymore
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    oh, i haven't seen that here

    although i haven't been in a McDonald's in months, so if it only arrived here recently i wouldn't know

    Pretty sure it sounds that way to everyone.

    it has this kind of urgency to it


    also the song that it comes from


    The song is based on a traditional folk chant whose language was thought to have magical properties. The original traditional Ukrainian text used a device known as hemiola in the rhythm (alternating the accents within each measure from 3/4 to 6/8 and back again). The chant based on an ostinato four-note pattern within the range of a minor third is thought to be of prehistoric origins and was associated with the coming New Year which in Ukraine before the introduction of Christianity was originally celebrated in April.

    Yeah, once again that writer mixes an alright message with a bad presentation. Yes, commercialism and overstimulated short attention spans are not conductive to contemplation. But really, as much as the Christmas season annoys me, I'm content to at least think that "humanity in high definition" is a much better creature than you give it credit for. If you're going to be cynical about stuff, mister Writer guy, why should I want to read your articles. There are other people who could write the message you wrote, but without the cynicism and misanthropy.

    Agreed. It's like thunder, primal and powerful.

    Aliroz: I'll change YOUR features -hacks at Antinatalists-

    Antinatalists: Life is overrated anyway.

    Aliroz: Hmm. Seems that simple hacking won't work. Then it appears that we've got to string these ANs up in an invariant loop.

    Antinatalists: ha! We have secret untying technology.

    Odradek, I know the real you is in there somewhere! And if he can hear me, then I've got one thing to say: I won't let you become the very thing you sought to destroy.

    I will become EVEN STRONGER and become the world's greatest somethingorother! -high pitched scream-

    I always rooted for Nag and Nagaina and the little brown snake in that story.

    Yeah, but at least we got a humbugging antinatalist shark in a christmas hat out of it, and I got to use my "frayed knot" joke, and I've been waiting for an excuse to say that I'll become the "world's greatest somethingorother".

    RESURGAM.

    i didn't go so far as to root for the snakes as a child, but i did find the story quite dark

    Nag and Nagaina were just trying to protect their eggs!

    Night, Tachyon.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    yes

    either way, somebody had to die

    if the snakes hadn't attacked, Rikki-Tikki-Tavi would still presumably have killed them
  • For once, or maybe twice, I was in my prime.
    Oh crap, now I'm imagining an antinatalist shark version of It's a Wonderful Life. Like, the angel (who is also a shark because come on) tries to show him how different the world would be if he had never been born, but AS keeps insisting that all the changes are for the better or neutral at worst.
