Even though the name is gayer than 8 dudes blowing 9 dudes. The S’aweosme sauce or whatever the fuck you call it from Wendy’s is actually pretty decent. That being said I have gotten in the habit of using the app for mobile orders so I don’t even have to communicate to these drive thru tards anymore and can just throw on like 50 packets of whatever into the list and park for a couple of seconds while they bring it out to me like it was a goddamn Sonic, while the plebs go through the line.

I ask for Awesome Sauce and occasionally a bitch will say, "You mean the S’aweosme sauce?" and I say "Yeah, the awesome sauce."

Same shit with Starbucks. "Give me a large coffee, black." The dumb bitch, "You mean Venti?" And I say, "Yeah, a large coffee, black".

Looking back at this, it's absolute insanity that a little over 10 years ago you could get 1 mozz stick, a curly fry, and three Arby's Melts for $5.95. What a fuckin' deal. No wonder why we took massive advantage of that in college.

The one I remember was when McDonald's cheeseburgers would go on sale for 49 cents. Nothing better as a college student than going to McD's with a 5 dollar bill and leaving with 10 cheeseburgers and a dime.

20+ years ago im not sure they had the beef and cheddar and only had one size sandwich. The 5 for 5 was amazing because those ones also had a shit ton of meat. The versions in the 5 for 10 nowadays is like 90/10 bread meat ratio

Pretty sure the Beef n Cheddar has been around since the 70's. There are like 3 sizes to every sandwich there now. They have like a classic, double, and half pound. I wanna say that the double is actually what a normal sandwich used to be before the change.

On the topic of how much shit used to cost, I remember you could get this amount of Taco Bell for like $3.50 back in the day. Well maybe not the chalupas, but burritos and tacos for days. Had a friend who would drive just about anywhere as long as you bribed him with a bean burrito for like 59¢.

You can actually tolerate the Starbucks black coffee? That shit is disgusting to me. The reason it is so overwhelming is that people expect to taste coffee through all of their sugary bullshit so the SBUX roast is super super dark. Not meant to be drank normally.

You can't even get Papa Murphy's take and bake right now. Which is my favorite chain pizza place. I don't get it. You grab and go and it's not even possible to eat it in store. Why are they closed of all places?

They are still open here in Sacramento, CA. My parents even went and got one the other day, despite being in their early 70s. Not sure if I'm happy about that or not, but hopefully they don't catch anything.
