Oh god. You are so right.

Being anywhere near 40 would be so much worse than being fat, stupid, self-absorbed, shallow, or deranged.

2. I remember it like it was yesterday, that sad day when I bit into an apple pie expecting crunchy deep fried tongue-burning gooeyness and all I got was mushy baked second-rate flavorless blahness. Ptuh. I spat it out and never looked back.

It is quite remarkable that McDonalds would do this for health reasons. Meanwhile, what were considered "large" fries when we were kids are now "regular" size, and every portion has become ginormous.

Maybe McDonalds could, consistent with their heart-stopping, artery-clogging marketing strategy reintroduce the fried pie, although in a "regular" size that is smaller than the current ("reduced calories!"). Then, in a brilliant marketing move introduce, six months later, the "large-size" pie, and the "super-sized pie" ("12 inches of crunch deep fried tongue-burning gooeyness!")* Brilliant.




*Not to be confused with sex-like burning.

I think it's just "sex like burning." But your marketing idea rocks. Please contact McD's instantly.

Plus, bring back the pudding pie. Also, when McNuggets first came out in 1981, they came out with 2 ultra hot sauces that were amazing. Bring those back too.

And McRib (for a limited time only). I've never eaten one, but I love the name, and the ads, and the technique to make extruded meat look like bone.

I smell a class action brought by people who know how to enjoy things in moderation. It's anti-moderationator discrimination, I say.

Why the fuck else would you post here? If you were all that and a bag of chips you'd be out play dating and PTAing and class mommying and mommy and me classes with the rest of them. you crave stimulation intellectually and damned if they don't deliver it with the soap opera talk!!

I had one once. It is quite remarkable that the "McRib" contains not a single actual rib. Which is probably a good thing. It probably doesn't contain any McMeat either, which i'm not sure is a good thing.

didn't McD stop super sizing in response to the movie? I don't see it going back to fried pie. Fringey- get your pie unbaked- then bring home and deep fry.

They did bring it back, much to my surprise.

Every time I think of the McRib I get this vivid image of my brother at 18. (Yes, he was a skinny teen, and he did work at a McD's for a time, but that's not why.) We were a bit late embarking on a teenagers-only roadtrip (woo-hoo!) to pick up our grandmother (double woo-hoo!) and bring her back home with us for a visit. The car was a 1970-something Ford LTD Station Wagon - red with wood trim and black perforated vinyl interior. He got a McRib from the drive-thru and tried to eat it while navigating the LIE. He turned to me and made the rather obvious statement, "this is not a good thing to eat while driving. " The way he said it was really funny, in a you-had-to-be-there kind of way. Whenever McD's reintroduces the McRib, we joke about it.

Too bad he didn't invent the McNugget, which is almost perfect eating-while-driving food.

I know this is a lame story, but Less's birthday is making me wistful for my long-ago (wild!) adolescence.
