Talking I Got Yell At While Waiting In the Drive Thru

Yesterday, after I got out of the gridlock we know as the UCO parking lot, I went to the McDonald's to order some tasty McChickens (with their 25 lbs of mayo) at the drive thru. It has the two-lane drive thru.

As I was sitting there waiting on my turn, I noticed that there were cars that did not go through the 2nd lane. Here we are sitting in line and we got 2 cars that refused to use the second lane like they are going to miss out on the Mickey D's goodness if they move over 4 feet to the other lane.

When the opportunity arised, I went into the 2nd lane and it wasn't long before I was able to order. Because I went into the second lane, I was able to cut in front of the car in front of me.

Why am I telling you all this? Because the lady in the car in front was now behind me. She actually rolled down her window to yell at me for cutting in front of her like I took away her birthday or something equally important. Being the smartass I am, I just wave at her and collected my food and made my way home.

Is there anything to learn from this? Sure, don't be a dummy and not use the 2nd lane because people like me (people with a lick of sense) will.

I am suprised they have never given me the wrong order yet. I actually scored an extra meal once. Being the tightwad I am that made my day.

I'm still trying to figure out the 2 line drive thru system. They need a red and green light for each lane to tell each car when to go.

Congratulations, you outsmarted someone in a McDonald's drive-thru.

You can kill yourself now.

Nope, I'm just a dumbass hick from rural Oklahoma. It don't take much for us to get outsmarted.

Me neither. I'm not sure how I'd react.

We've got a few of them around here and they are a bit odd. In the few that I've seen, the outside lane ordering spot is generally behind the inside lane so there would seem to be terrific crash potential if people aren't paying attention.

The only two lane I've seen went on either side of the "restaurant" so that one was right-side-order and one was left-side-order.

Honestly Subby, are you being a troll for trolls sake, or are you being a blatant asshole because that is what you are.

Between this thread and AE's one that was locked, you have come across as the later, and honestly it doesn't shock me. I have noticed your trolling tendencies growing the past couple of weeks, but really grow up, stop being an ass.

Don't sweat it, Dennis. I know he's messing with me. I've been messing right back at him.

The two lane drive through system just makes you think you're going to get your food faster, it's a smoke and mirrors thing, plus it makes the line look shorter.

If it wasn't for red box, I'd never go into McD's parking lot.

A rental movie vending machine (painted red), offering the latest releases for $1 per day. It's $4.45 to rent a movie at Blockbuster, so this is SO much cheaper. Keep it for 3 days, it's $3. I love it.

I used to work at McDs, this is best conversation I've heard on the headset:

Customer over drive-thru: Excuse what's in your custard pie?
Mcds: It f***ing custard!
