I get a McRib every couple of years, it only serves to remind myself why I don't eat them more often when they're available.
I'm pretty sure this means I'm stupid, as even a chimp will eventually learn that sticking it's hand in fire is an unpleasant experience and stop after trying it a couple of times.
The only thing which bugs me about the McRib is the strong artificial flavor? It might be something else, I don't know. But it kinda bites into my taste buds.
I'm getting a breakfast burrito and potato ole from Taco Johns right now.
Oh man, Taco Johns. Base liberty on Lackland AFB after the bullshit of BMT and the BX had a TJs. Their tator tots were delicious.
I have to go to a TJs again somehow.
I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!!

When I was in paris, all the McDees had these... ordering towers? Spread around the floor in the space before the counters
Big friendly touchscreen menus - you selected what you wanted, swiped your credit card, and you got a little reciept with a number while the order went through the computer and into the McKitchen
After a few minutes they'd call the number and you'd come pick up the order from the counter
Efficient, effortless and requiring minimal amount of human interaction
McDonald's Paris have got their shit on fucking lock

If want to talk good local burger places theres a few out here. We have http://valpo.burgerhausrestaurants.com/ Burgerhause which alot of people rant and rave about but I think is just ok. The fries are real good here though. Then theres my favorite place, a bar called Stacks, its a bar themed after a library with books everywhere and they have about 70 beers on hand, they have a drink 50 beers and get on our wall card called a Library Card (yes my name is on the wall) and they have amazing burgers paired with sweet potatoe tots which are grand.
If you really want a McRib, go to the grocery store, buy a box of these things and a bag of hamburger rolls.

Let me tell you the tale of my first McRib:
This was two weeks ago. I kept hearing the promotions, and I, an overweight, sedentary 27 year old realized I had never consumed one.
"I must rectify this!" I said to my roommate, climbing to my feet. "Today, I will eat a McRib!" and immediately left the apartment.
I climbed into my car, and ordered. The process took about ten minutes, as someone in front of me was clearing out their entire ready-stock of McNuggets.
Bag clenched firmly in hand, I drove around the corner and saw Trudy. Trudy normally hangs out beside the 7/11 down the block from my apartment. She's not homeless, she's just not receiving as much assistance as she should be, considering her husband is chronically ill and she works part time. She spends about two hours a day asking for food. I've tried to give her money before, but she refuses it, instead asking for sandwiches.
I slowed my car down and rolled down the window.
"Hey Trudy!" I waved.
"Hi, Mike!"
"Got a McRib. You want it?"
"Oh, no. I couldn't."
"You certainly could!" I said, handing it over. "Anyway, tell Charlie I said hello."
I drove back to the apartment and ate Ramen.

Is there a Thanksgiving thread? Is this it? Because I have begun the first thawing bath for the turkey.
I had a McRib just recently. I went into it hoping for something bad for me but delicious. Like a Baconator or a Quesarito or some other fastfood bullshit disasterpiece.
Nope. Strong flavor that was maybe sort of like sweet and sour and no actual texture to speak of. I ate some of it, couldn't stop getting that terrible smelling sauce everywhere so I took a break from the chore that is the McRib, and then something terrible began to happen in my stomach. I maybe had eaten half of the thing. I threw it away and consoled myself with the fries.
It smelled like McRib in my car for two days. It's like Black Ice but instead of SO FRESH it's more like SO RANCID.
You g'wan likin' that stuff if you do. I just couldn't stand it.

go elsewhere to talk about your fancy slop, bourgeois pig
this is the mcrib thread, this is the people's thread

Because that sandwich is even worse than their current offerings.

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

watch that bird!
seems like a no-brainer
do you reckon they've spent like eight million dollars on feasability studies in order to conclude that turkey is just not mcable
But I don't like pig, don't like barbecue, don't like pickles and generally don't like McDonald's food, so
I think I'm safe making assumptions on this one
WHOA WAIT WHAT
Who the fuck doesn't like pickles?
Yo that's me, not a pickle fan.

Hey you wanna go fight one of those murder birds for its meat, good on ya man good luck.

Not big on Taco Johns, but that BX does have Cinnabon and hot sisters/girlfriends. Score!
