Went to McDonald's for lunch today (shopping at WallyWorld) and waited FOREVER!

It's not like they were that busy; they could take your money faster than anything. But then you waited...and waited...and waited.

I believe it is all to try to force people onto their app and kiosk: order it and it will be ready ahead of time: meanwhile, we'll lay off more people! Yay, we win!

My wife doesn't like the 'order kiosk': she doesn't like it taking away jobs, and I don't like the app idea (or McDonald's period). Even as a person of autism who doesn't care for interacting with people, I prefer talking to a person ( I can then hold THEM responsible for a screwup, lol).

We finally get our food and the order is wrong, so we have to go back up and get it done again.
Meanwhile, people have had their money taken from them quickly and are lining up to get their food and the line just keeps getting longer and longer and people are waiting longer and longer....

(I prefer A&W: better food, great rootbeer, much better fries.)

So my guess is that McDonald's is willing to take a short term kick up the ass and make their customers wait longer and longer in order to make them order THEIR way.
Me, I'd just rather wait at A&W.

Isn't it fantastic that lightweight Senator Bob Corker, who helped President Obama give us the bad Iran Deal & couldn't get elected dog catcher in the Great State of Tennessee, is now on board with Tax Cuts! And so is Little Marco Rubio. So happy to hear that! It's FULL STEAM AHEAD for Tax Cuts & Jobs. Give me goddamned steam! Flaky Flake, get on. Chuck & Nancy, if you're reading this -- I think you're reading this -- I saved your seats. Don't let the Trump Train leave Tax Cut Junction without you......Goofy Elizabeth Warren, you too, let's see Pocahontas make peace with Big White Man Chief......bing bing, bong bong, bing bing bing.......You Dems have donors too. 🚂

Previously: Another Former Facebook Exec Speaks Out

Palihapitiya's initial remarks included the statement that Facebook "overwhelmingly does good in the world". Maybe that wasn't good enough for somezucky?

Former Facebook Exec Who Suggested Social Media Was Destroying Society: I Love Facebook

He's already rich. He can feed his kids. But can he protect them from the reach of Facebook?

Our thoughts and prayers are with Rebecca Johnson, brave widow of Dan Johnson, a true patriot & friend of Kentucky. Another victim of the purposely false and defamatory stories FABRICATED & put out by the Fake News Media. They are out of control - correct reporting means nothing to them. Major lies written, then forced to be withdrawn after they are exposed...a stain on America! They should be ashamed. "His fight will go on." We are with you! fxn.ws/2AmL7yI

Thank you, Omarosa, for your service. To The Apprentice, Celebrity Apprentice, Donald J. Trump Presents the Ultimate Merger, and least of all, the White House. Good luck, and maybe, probably, we will make great television together again. #TrumpTV

My tweet about Judge Roy Moore and the Alabama Senate race reached the maximum Score, 5 points. Very popular tweet! Not down-modded yet, very surprising. So I looked in the Hot Comments, my tweet's not there. I waited, it's not there yet. But tizan's tweet from before mine, also about Alabama, is there. Arik's tweet from later, about the livers, is there. DeathMonkey's, Thexalon's and stretch611's tweets from MUCH earlier are there. 3 tweets about the race in Alabama, nothing from realDonaldTrump. Why are their tweets trending but mine aren't? And I looked many, many times before. When I made MAGNIFICENT tweets, very popular, they didn't get to the Hot Comments. Maybe because I don't tweet out politically correct bullshit that advances the Dem agenda. When I see that the Establishment and special interests are absolutely killing our country, I say so. And Twitter hates it. They're NOTHING without me, but sometimes they try to stop me from getting my message out. And maybe, probably, someone running SoylentNews doesn't want folks to see my messages trending. So they blocked me from the Hot Comments. Sad!

#Hanukkah is a time for Jewish families around the world to come together around the lighting of the menorah 🕎 and celebrate the miracles of the past and promises of the future. Melania and I wish all of our Jewish brothers and sisters celebrating this meaningful holiday a happy and healthy eight nights in the company of those they love.

The miracle of Hanukkah began more than 2,000 years ago, when the practice of Judaism was made punishable by death. A small band of Jewish patriots rose up and reclaimed their Jewish identity by vanquishing a mighty army. In their pursuit to rededicate their holy temple, 🕍 the Jewish heroes found only enough oil to light the temple’s menorah for one night. They had big problems because they didn't back their oil industry. However, a miracle occurred and with God’s grace the oil lasted for eight days. 🛢

Folks, America's incredible energy potential remains untapped. It's a wound that is totally self-inflected. And we can't count on a miracle. Under my presidency, we will accomplish complete American energy independence. We will become totally independent of the need to import energy from the oil cartel 🛢 or any nation hostile to our interest. We will get the bureaucracy out of the way of innovation, so we can pursue ALL forms of energy. All forms.

On this holiday, we are proud to stand with the Jewish people who shine as a light to all nations. We also stand with the people of Israel, the Jewish State, 🇮🇱 which has itself a miraculous history of overcoming the tallest of odds. We hope that those observing the holiday here, in Israel, and around the world have a wonderful holiday. pic.twitter.com/D9MVVPq39x

ITER fusion project lies about the dates, budget and power levels

I've said we’re going to win. We’re going to win so much. We’re going to win at trade, we’re going to win at the border. We’re going to win so much, you’re going to be so sick and tired of winning, you’re going to come to me and go "Please, please, we can’t win any more." You’ve heard this one, right? You’ll say "Please, Mr. President, we beg you sir, we don’t want to win any more. It’s too much. It’s not fair to everybody else." And I’m going to say "I’m sorry, but we’re going to keep winning, winning, winning, We’re going to make America great again." But we need your votes, folks. Everybody in Alabama, today is a very big day. A VERY SPECIAL election day. We cannot afford, this country, the future of this country, cannot afford to lose a seat in the very, very close United States Senate. We can’t afford it, folks. If Alabama elects liberal Democrat Doug Jones, all of our progress will be stopped cold. We already know Democrat Doug Jones is a puppet of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, and he will vote with the Washington liberals every single time. We can't afford to lose that seat.

And did you see what happened with the yearbook? Did you see that? There was a little mistake made. She started writing things in the yearbook. Gloria Allred, any time you see her you know something’s going wrong.

I need Alabama to vote for Roy Moore! He's a winner, he can't win alone. Roy Moore is the guy we need to pass the Make America Great Again agenda. Get out and VOTE FOR ROY MOORE! 🗳
