Burger King Logic

alphaGeek · 05-07-2008, 10:46 PM

OK, so Triv & I were done with our workout... and we decide to go ahead and get m'lady her new hoochie-mama shoes for her September debute as a Fitness Competitor. Of course getting hoochie-mama shoes means she needs to go to a store called zone d' erotica. Not something you want to sit outside of with your four kids and have them look in wondering what Mom is doing...

So I decide to go to the Burger King next door for an ice cream cone for the kids. Now I'm not one to frequent fast food stores and what happened next is hilarious.

So Trivial heads over to get her shoes and I start to order. I innocently ask for four kid-sized ice cream's while looking at the soft-serve ice cream machine. The guy behind the counter said they don't have ice cream... now I'm looking at the ice cream machine and I ask about the machine. He says they don't serve ice cream here at Burger-King... so I proceed to ask him "What do you have that is dessert-ish?" He says milk shakes & pies. Of course my next question is "What do you make milkshakes with?" He responds "Ice Cream."

Like I said, I don't frequent fast food joints... so my next question was:

"You don't sell ice cream but you have milkshakes, what's up with that?" By this point the 14-year old girl and her brother behind me are cracking up... I look at the menu and sure enough... no ice cream. So I order up 4 small milkshakes (2 strawberry and 2 chocolate) and proceed to sit down & wait on Trivial.

Fricking Burger-King Logic. Let's not sell ice cream but we can sell milk-shakes. Who'd a thunk it?

One time a friend and I went to a fast food restaurant. He ordered a milk to drink. he opened it and it was so spoiled it was curdled. he went to the counter and said ; My milk is spoiled. The guy behind the counter looked into the milk carton and said, thats funny its not supposed to be spoiled.

Long pause

My friend says; I know its not supposed to be spoiled.

Long pause

My friend says, so can I have another one.

Well, I worked at BK in high school - nobody expects you to win a Nobel prize for working there, but dayum.

I still think he should have asked to have the milkshakes "his way" without the milk

Then that would just be "the shakes". Most people try to avoid things like that....

Mrs Croft · 05-07-2008, 11:59 PM

he should have then asked for 4 VERY thick milk shakes minus the milk

just fill up the cups with ice cream and lets call it a deal

You can't have egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam.

Not quite the same but still a fast food story..

Once we drove from TX to LA to do some gambling. One night on a drunken splurge we hit McD's and I asked for a Texas Homestyle burger and got "what's that?".

Who knew there were regional menu's?? I felt like an idiot but it was funny as hell at the time. THe rest of the country is missing out!

Next time you are in line at the drive thru and your buddy is driving, tell him you want the happy fun basket. And you have to kinda blurt it to them real quick when they get ready to order for you so they don't have time to think about what they are saying. I always laugh my ass off when the person over the speaker sounds dumbfounded and my buddy's look at me like, "you asshole.."

Better yet, tell them to hold the cup. That always gets a great reaction.

Or do the Daniel Plainview speech about milkshakes. That would be fun too

We went to a new sports bar&grill last night here in town. With not much to choose from I ordered a grilled chick. salad. The only dressings were ranch, blue cheese and Italian. I asked the girl if they possibly had any caesar dressing. She said, sorry we don't have caesar dressing but we do have a caesar salad which is special order. Huh? So I guess I could have got a plain caesar salad w/ caesar dressing or either get a regular salad with Italian or ranch. Me no understand.

I saw an ad at Burger King yesterday:

"Buy a combo meal here for less than a tank of gas!"

Lol, I think that's old hat for him now. I'm not scared of sex shops in the slightest. Sometimes on date nights we'll go in to laugh and watch other people's reactions more than to shop. People are so freaking scared of sex. I find it hilarious.

No kidding. It's hilarious when a woman walks in & all the guys in there pretend they're not really looking at anything seriously. Or thay walk away from the big toys & gay porn & head over to the straight section.
