I know making a "custom order" at a fast food restaurant is taboo, but what if you just wanted to hold the pickles or something?

Where can you get those neat "fat packs" of Magic cards (they have 6 boosters, the expansion's novel, and assorted other goodies)? Why is the coolest stuff the hardest to get? It's like living in an MMORPG!

Did you know that Diet Coke must be, "canned under the authority of the Coca-Cola company?"

What happened to George Lucas' talent?

And Steven Spielberg's (I mean, really, I'm dreading the next Harry Potter movie)?

How many Chinese family names are there, really?

Speaking of China, what's in a dish called Chow Mai Fun (god, that sounds dirty)?

The googles, they do nothing!

In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

As a director he never had any.

He's a writer.

Who said that? It's only the people who are annoying about it that we hate.

"Can I get a cheeseburger with no mustard, onions or catsup!"
"So you just want cheese and pickles on it?"
"No, I want it with no mustard, onions or catsup I said!"
"..."

My favorites are the ones in the drive thru who ask for something to be left off that isn't on the sandwich in the first place and then scream like you insulted their mother about how you're getting their order all wrong when you don't ring it up like that to avoid confusion in the grill, and when you say it doesn't come on it he swears he's been going to McDonald's for years and it always comes on his sandwich and I'm just stupid because I don't know what comes on the sandwiches I can make in five seconds flat!

It's always tomatos and Quarter Pounders. Always.

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

Well, the only Star Wars movies he's written suck.

The containers we put it in, the packets it comes in, the screen in the grill, the screen in the drive thru, the screen at the front counter, the register, the boxes the stuff is shipped in, the order form and the invoice showing what we paid for on the truck.

You could've just said 'retards' and saved a few words.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

The one (ONE) store around here only carries Scourge packs... the novels are so hard to find here that getting them plus the cards plus the guide PLUS the other goodies makes my skin tingle.

I don't suppose we could work out some kind've deal, eh?

The cash register doesn't count as a retard. It's an automaton.

The word "ketchup" is trademarked by Heinz. Though most people use it in casual conversation, they can only offer it at a fast food store if they actually provide Heinz ketchup. Otherwise, they have to write and say "catsup" or risk getting sued.

... and you know retardssome people will sue over anything these days.
