  - McLean DeLuxe was worse. -- nm - loosilu Mar 16, 11:24
  - I miss the McDLT terribly. I loved it. But I was 12 when it came out, so... - Dr.Vermin is a rooster illusion Mar 16, 11:23 4

        Hmm. Is it a "sometimes" thing, like the McRib? -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Mar 16, 11:33 1
        
        It's in eastern Quebec and the Maritimes, yeah, I guess it's seasonal -- nm - Guigue Mar 16, 11:34

        No doubt. It's just the Carl's Jr. Big Burger, only double. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Mar 16, 11:25
        
        what a surprising thing to have such a cognitive dissonance over -- nm - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:23
- Interesting. My wife still orders the BK VEGGIE. And Burger Buddies were awesome (they're back under another name now) and we would cook them up - oblique Mar 16, 11:17 5
  - hiring you to work fast food would be like hiring The Sundance Kid to work bank security -- nm - fairway frank Mar 16, 11:18 3
    - he -- nm - Roger More Mar 16, 11:23 1
      - he'd be like Frank Abignale -- nm - Roger More Mar 16, 11:24

  - Burger Shots. That's what BK is calling them now -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 11:18
- McPizza was a big hit here. -- nm - Reagen Mar 16, 11:16 1
  - I kinda liked the taste. But then again, I kinda like pizza hut, too. - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:18
- boy, if that doesn't get your taste buds flowing. I think this should keep away people from fast food for a while -- nm - CQ Mar 16, 11:15
- McLobster? noooo! - fairway frank Mar 16, 11:14 1
  - oh god, the SuperBar. i worked at Wendy's when they had that - fairway frank Mar 16, 11:16

csi-type shows are going to be all over this: bacteria on fingertips could become new forensic tool. nm but: -- (link) - b. Mar 16, 11:05 4
- What if you use anti-bacterial hand gel? -- nm - LMS Mar 16, 11:08 3
  - I thought of that, too, and gloves. people leave evidence behind all the time, though. -- nm - b. Mar 16, 11:09 1
    - yeah, as long as it works sometimes, it's helpful. -- nm - loosilu Mar 16, 11:15
  - then they can probably trace it back to your credit card number -- nm - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:09
I know it wasn't me, because I would never do the Grail one. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:05
I think the episode that absolutely sold me on Parks & Rec was the Hunting ep. - musubi Mar 16, 11:04 1

  - Boy, has he underperformed this season.... - Will Hunting Mar 16, 11:08 4
    - How out of character for him. -- nm - David Mar 16, 11:14 2
      - Nah typically he's an early season warrior and is done by US Open time. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 11:18 1
        
        He always disappoints when more is expected of him. The situation may change but the general behavioral pattern is identical. -- nm - David Mar 16, 11:21
    - horses for courses. Augusta's set up favors his shot shape. then it's just about putting - fairway frank Mar 16, 11:10
- Field. I think it's worth a bet that Tiger doesn't make the cut. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 11:06 3
  - You think he's better odds to not make the cut? You're mad. Did he go to suck at golf therapy? -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 11:07 2
    - I think he makes the cut 2/3 to 3/4 of the time. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 11:09 1
      - Oh, I read your odds backwards. I gotcha. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 11:10

  - Well, if he is not nailing whores anymore, you *know* he will have tons of pent up aggression. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 11:07
  - I am actually looking forward to seeing stoic, zen Tiger out there. - TFox Mar 16, 11:06 3
    - [deleted] 2
      - Phil will hire some woman with a bad red bouffant hairdo to stand out in the gallery wearing an apron. -- nm - Reagen Mar 16, 11:10
      - For most golfers, that'd be the case, but I stopped trying to apply the usual issues to Tiger a long time ago. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 11:09
- The Skanks -- nm - Redmond on a phone Mar 16, 11:05
- The field. -- nm - mara Mar 16, 11:05
- Yes, I'd take the field, but still make Tiger the favorite. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 11:05
God of War III in hand. I am very excited to kill with Kratos in1080p glory! -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 11:03 1
