    Same. I stopped going to McDonald's 2 years ago for several reasons:

    1. Their "food" got way too expensive for the shit quality that it is,

    2. You won't catch me dead with a fucking fast food app on my phone, and

    3. the final straw was their tacit endorsement of Donald Trump when they refused to reprimand the franchise owner that pulled that stupid stunt in Pennsylvania.

    I hadn’t gone to a fast food place in years and figured fuck it, on my way to a morning meeting one day where I had to leave a lot earlier than normal. I got a breakfast meal with a small coffee. That shit fucked with my insides so much it convinced me I’m just never going to eat fast food again. With how much prices have increased at fast food places these days you can go to a sit down restaurant and not spend all that much more. Wild world we live in.

    Not from supporting national corporate oppression trough food, no.

    Arnt hotcakes just pancakes? None of us really like pancakes anyway, but theyre dumb easy to make without serving your hard earned money to corpo slop.

    Do you my dude. Fuck it matter to me you have a mcdonalds tradition? I was just being a cunt because im overwhelmed with the number of folks cool with making rich people richer at the detriment of everything else. Im sure the big wigs at mcdonalds are greatful for your patronage and support word of mouth promoting .50 cent hotcakes served to you right to your car window at premium! Why not find a local place or diner and go there instead? Why not go less? Why ethically, it is okay to support companies who are opressive to labor, health, and humanity just because it is convenient? Why create little consumers of your children who will find nostolgia in them fucking arches?

    Idk, do you boo boo, fully addmitting to being an ass here, no further actions required.
