Now you can have your fries with mayo and a flame broiled whopper delivered to your sex dungeon, so there's that.

In Houston you're just supposed to eat at the nearest Vietnamese or Khmer kolache shop.

Great, now I want fries with mayo. What have you done?

Gotta be real good fries. Actual good fries were the last straw in ruining fast food for me; even if I'm hammered I won't touch the stuff anymore.

I remember when Krispy Kreme came to Texas, and it was huge at first, but then everyone resumed going to Shipley because it is far superior.

Texas is awful in a lot of ways, but not donuts.

I once went to a job and the biggest cowboy wannabe motherfucker in the room brought Krispy Kremes out as if it was the second coming and none of us were having it.

You eat Shipleys or kolaches or you eat nothing.

It's also a very bipartisan and multiracial word. Though if you use it overseas people will stop what they are doing and stare at you, so I've had to tone it down.

I'm in Upstate New York and I do that. I'm used to having a distinction between singular and plural second person from Hebrew, so it feels weird to just say "you" in both cases.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

"all of you", "the four of you", or some other specifier. That said, yes, the y'all is a great and valuable addition to the English language, the only good cultural artifact to ever come out of the South.

We should do a week where you can only post like this.

Yeah, I've never lived in Texas and I still do it rather than string out "you all."

Now, everyone: "They" can be singular neutral and I'll brook no discussion on that point.

See, this even seems worse to me because at least you could argue that Krispy Kreme is a novelty for Oceania or SE Asia, but what can BK possibly offer Belgium? They already do fries with mayo. It's their thing.
it's weird, yes. our country's home to the - actually declared part of our cultural heritage - frietkoten. literally every village has one, cities have dozens and these days you can usually get burgers there too. meanwhile, you have things like burger king, mcdonalds and our own belgian quick - big chains where you can get overly salty, tiny, thin and rock solid fries along with mediocre hamburgers, where you don't know if you just took a bite out of the burger or out of the container. but somehow, they survive. i doubt they do as well as in other countries, but some people just seem to like stuff like that from time to time. my parents never really went out for fastfood with us, but i know a bunch of people where going to mcdo or quick was a special treat - and they generally still love going there. it's not for me.

what i will visit, however, is pizza hut because that poo poo is loving delicious. it's not my go-to pizza place, but if i want to OD on pizza i go there.

Now, has anybody brought poutine over there in a big way? It's not very widespread in the States but you'd think it would be. Even when we do bring it over the border we keep ruining it.
