OP, the fast food food workers are glad to be only cooking for one person, less work and it allows them to focus more on the single order and do a better job. When I was a line cook I loved getting the single meal orders versus the whole family coming in and getting the equivalent of a fucking catering order right on the spot. They don't mind at all if one person is getting food.

Also, if you're worried about ordering food alone, then you gotta have get self confidence, work it up slowly doing mundane tasks like ordering food, holding the door open for people, and being more conversational.

I am a kinda weird looking dude and my local cornerstore indians literally laugh in my face when they see me but they also are very friendly and keep my favorite liquor and snacks in stock just for me.

Our local Indian Store Owner pummels us with ridiculously artificial pleasantries before trying to sell us whatever "bargain" items he's shilling this week, which we politely decline before proceeding to the cash register, which somehow is always staffed by a new Indian cashier, doubtless another "relative" for visa purposes, as the owner stands nearby and watches for some weird reason, judging my purchases. So we've mostly gone back to the other store with the dead-eyed zoomers.

No one cares. It's fast food, not a five star gourmet restaurant. Besides, even if it is a fancier place, you will likely never interact with any of the staff outside of the restaurant anyway, so even if they are a cunt about it, it doesn't affect you anyway.

The most awkward thing you can do in this situation is overthink it and spill your spaghetti. Just go in, get your order, thank them, and walk out. That's it.

Everyone saying "no one cares", when I worked at McDonald's as a teen I would judge every fat fuck that came in. We'd laugh about them later. I still remember what some of them ordered regularly and this was back in 2006. One hog would always come in and order a giant bag of food that was clearly for her. She was pulling her bank card out one time and her drivers license fell out on the counter. Her picture showed a skinny, beautiful woman, but definitely not more than a a couple of years younger. Fast food had ruined her, sad, waste of decent pussy.

Last week I stopped to eat inside a McDonalds and I saw a slightly autistic guy that knew every worker's name by heart, but also clearly practically lived there since he kept checking the time and getting refills. Eventually one of the employees cut him off and told him he wasn't giving him any more soda for his own health. I ended up seeing the guy leave the restaurant like 5 min later with a refill, so maybe he cut a deal with the employee to get 1 more but also to get the hell out.

Back in the olden times, before you were born, cannabis (or pot as we called it) was sold by self-employed vendors as loose leaf in small bags. You had to roll it up into tubes (commonly known as joints). We'd light one end into a burning ember, then inhale the smoke through the tube. This required a special paper, cut to exactly the right size, with a small strip of saliva-activated adhesive down one side. This was called "rolling paper", because it was used when "rolling" the joints.
