Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was guessing from the "sausage patty wrapped in pancakes" part.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

No, that's probably the one I was thinking of. I haven't been in a McDonald's in ages -- on TV, they look ginormous. And fried.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Okay. I love Egg McMuffins, and if they weren't so horribly bad for me, I'd eat one once a week.

I felt horribly betrayed by the Frappaccino. It's not even that good. I'd have a frappe at Brigham's if I was going to make a decision about consuming that many calories/grams of fat in one sitting.

This is another reason why I like The Coffee Bean. They have yummy coffee drinks that aren't that terrible for you, if you're going to expend some calories, and they only use fat free milk.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Deep fried twinkies.

That's really all I have to add.

Wake up to a mouthful of breakfast

Whoever wrote that copy clearly has the WORLD'S LARGEST MOUTH OPENING!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wake up to a mouthful of breakfast with the Enormous Omelet Sandwich.

Did somebody actually write that ad copy and then sit back contentedly saying, "Aw, yeah, that's the stuff"? Because, bleah. I don't really want to wake up to a mouthful of anything, thank you. It sounds either vaguely (and ineptly) porny or like the EOS is a feral foodstuff roaming through the bedrooms of America and lunging into sleeping people's mouths like a rabid monkey pouncing from underneath a bush. Either way, not so appetizing.

Julia Roberts is moonlighting as a BK copy writer?

The worst thing about those commercials is that there is a dude dressed as "The Burger King" with a totally plastic smiley head. Suddenly, he's right it front of a dude's window, holding it out like a bloody offering.

Gives me nightmares.

Remember, these are the same people who brought us the terrifying plastic-head-Burger-King-in-the-bed ad campaign.

There, see? Crosspost.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Has anyone seen the BK ad with Hootie?
