Someone sued McDonalds cos they burnt their tounge on coffee which didnt have "warning: may be hot" on the side of it. It's laughable - lol
Someone sued becuase they weighed like 500lbs, they lost because its not like McD's was shoving Big Macs down their throats.
I just moved to the US from Germany (Australia etc.) anyway, I moved here, and holy crap. Every where you go, litterally one in four people are obese. one in seven massivley so. Go outside now, conduct your own experiment, and I bet one of the first four people you see, are going to be obese. --edit-- Weird thing is, nerds (aka us) are not particualary overweight. I'm 5'8" and only 135. But I'm still growing XD
Pizza Schmizza, Subway ($3 bucks for a footlong meal with Student discount!), BurgerVille, JackINtheBOX No McDonald's for me! I haven't eaten their in 6 years!
Quiznos subs are great but a little pricey. My current favorite right now is Hardees' new Spicy Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. It's really good the hot sauce is perfect! http://www.spicybuffalo.com/hardees/
Super Size Me was mentioned back earlier in this post. For those of you who haven't seen it, its a really good movie that shows the affects of fast food on the body. Its also pretty entertaining to see this man in pretty good shape destroy his body just to prove eating McDonald's every meal for an entire moth is bad for you. I suggest you look into it.
I was so fing pissed. We started that movie at the beginnig of the semester, but someone complained because he started talking about his sex life part way threw, and the school wouldn't let us finish it. Oh, I forgot about Hooters! You got to love Hooters. Great place.
Eat Your Bugs! Preparing the meal The first step in the preparation is to separate all dead bugs, leaves and debris from the live bugs. The live bugs are placed in a bucket and a small amount of warm water is added before the bugs are stirred with a wooden spoon. This causes the bugs to release their alarm or defensive pheromones. The overpowering cloud of defensive secretions is so strong that it hurts the eyes and the harvesters turn their heads away and close their eyes to protect them. After a while, warm water is added and the insects are rinsed. This process is repeated three times before the insects are boiled in water and killed. If any dead bugs are accidentally left with the live bugs, it is not possible for the dead bugs to release their defence secretions. These bugs can be identified during subsequent quality control because their ventral surface is blackened by the stink glands and they are rejected for human consumption. The cooked bugs are then sun dried on an empty maize bag. The preparation procedure above can only be used for live bugs, so an alternative preparation is used for dead bugs. The heads of the dead bugs are removed and the thorax and abdomen are squeezed between the thumb and index finger. This causes a translucent pale green gland to be exuded through the neck of the dead insect, and this is wiped off on a rock. The bugs are then boiled and sun-dried as in the previous procedure. The dried bugs may be eaten as snacks or sold at the markets. They can also be fried with salt and a little water, until the water evaporates and then served with pap (mealie meal). http://www.scienceinafrica.co.za/2003/october/stinkbug.htm

Hey lethal, Waazzuuuup ? ;-) re the whole supersize me debate, i'd say any highschool stopping a movie because sex is being discussed in it should be sued 'till they bleed. [Rant ON!]Die puritan scum![Rant Off] @GrandpaBW : no, they're not. Then again, i lived in Texas for 16 years, and i can safely say i see less fat people lumbering around here than i did when i was still living in the U.S.
Wahaha. Germans skinny? By no means. But still, skinny(er?) than the US of A. Still, there are fat people everywhere in the world. Australia, Germany, US, yes even the UK. XD Attractive however... Australian chicks awesome... German chicks... meh -edit- svelte: adj. When one appears more physically attractive that usual and thinner in figure or outline. I had to look that one up
