Imagine going to Maccas and ordering an "aristrocrat" whenever you want to eat a double-patty burger, intelligent or not it's a fucking mouthful.

Or maybe that a 1/4 pound of bullshit was better than a bullshit pound of crap.

Full Disclosure: I've eaten two hamburgers from McDonalds and one hamburger from Burger King.

The first hamburger from McDonalds tasted okay but gave me a strong case of diarrhea. The second was when someone brought one to where I was working when working late and it would be hours before I was able to go somewhere else to eat.

The one hamburger from Burger King was a true disaster. I took one bite, spit it out, and dumped it all in the trash. There is no way I'll ever go to Burger King again.
