Just remember, mineral spirits removes tar from assholes. Just make sure you wipe away the organs first.

Meal of shame today here too. Military base here has a few fast food choices. I was early for work, so dropped in to Taco Bell and ate my normal 3x chicken soft taco supremes add pico. Still felt hungry as fuck, so dropped by Arby's on the way out for 2x beef and cheddars and a large curly fries to take into work. They lasted about 15 minutes after setting foot in the door. The poo tonight will be glorious.

Every time I go through a drive-thru I end up behind the asshole that orders 100+ dollars worth of food, I don't understand why they don't refuse the order and tell them to come inside. I got trapped behind that asshole for 30 mins.

Ate my farewell to naked chicken today. talked with manager, you conspiracy theorist have it all wrong. She said they rotate specials every month and a half. The reason why naked chicken is leaving is not due to drive-through times, its because the triple double crunchwrap rotated back in.

Order:
Naked box / soft / cool ranch/baja blast (4x refills while waiting)
4x naked
habanero double stack taco
cup of cheese (I have chips at home)
(wife typically eats only one item and maxes at two)
(son usually only eats half a cup of cheese, maxing at half a taco)

So the naked was really good on the first go, but it didn't past the quantity test. Ironically, tomatoes were its downfall. Frankly, it needs them, but in numbers, the chances of getting a sour/bad dice increases. The Avo ranch is great, but i ended up adding mild or dipping in cheese to bolster.
side: first time doing the mild, i usually got hottest due to my gender, but I actually like the flavor (i think, needs more testing) of mild best. (diablo is too powdery)

habanero ranch of double stack is good, but not something I would load down with (through the use of multiple tacos). I use them as a palette offsetter. For example, 5 tacos, hab is #3; 6, hab is #3 and #5.

I've said it countless times in this thread, but the drive thru is almost always a terrible decision. Unless it's super late (and the inside is closed) or -40 degrees and you have a whiny woman and/or kid with you that doesn't want to get out of the car, there is no reason to go to the drive thru.

You think the quality of food is worse when you go through drive through?

Not at all. I just think the drive thru brings extra issues to deal with while being (marginally, and only sometimes) faster than parking and going inside.

My man! I've been saying exactly this for years and my kids mock me saying it isn't true. I'll tell them McCheese says it's true, so that ends the argument.

Drive thrus also result in getting incorrect sodas, which never happens when you fill them yourself inside. In this very thread people have posted about how they drove away from the drive thru and then realized they'd gotten a root beer instead of Dr. Pepper or whatever.

I also feel like it's easier to check that you have the correct order/everything you ordered when you get it inside. You're not pressured to take the bag and start driving, and it's easier to rifle through the bag inside at the counter or on a table than trying to do that in your car.

Eh, I don't find that I encounter that very often. 5% chance of a fuckup is worth the 100% chance of not having to leave my private car and go out among the rest of the apes.

When I'm with the family we're ordering for 7 people. Chance of getting something wrong in the drive through: 100%

If it is just me, I might stay in the car and use the drive through.

I also prefer to go inside and order. I don't like eating while in the car. I'll only do that if I'm really pressed for time. Also the In-N-Out drive thru is always so intimidating. Cars out to the road.

I back McCheeses play, I used to always park and go inside to get my food if there were more than 2 people in the drive thru line, usually I'd break even on time savings.

I go through the drive-thru. After getting my food I find a close parking spot and test the drink and double check my order. Only then if there is a problem do I go inside.
