Patrick Stewart looks like a school kid that just watched his buddy get in trouble.

Quite the difference from his normal stoic persona in the show.

He looks like my dad, doing exactly this when he farts and my mom just goes away.

'number two'

Why do you all have issues with Taco Bell? Never in my life have I had the bubble guts from the Bell. Do you guys just not eat many beans or something and the extra fiber loosens you up? Is it food poisoning?

Same here ... I don't like Taco Bell because I just find the food value completely stupid, for the price of a burger you get a taco half the size, so you buy two and if you buy the big one you might as well go for a regular meal at an actual restaurant.

But I never got sick on their food ... I think the whole idea is just repeated misconceptions. I've been sick from fast food several times from burgers and chicken and even salad.

It's been about five years now but I no longer go to any fast food. It doesn't make any sense when you think about it.

Pay a premium to eat low grade food that isn't good for you prepared by young people or elderly people who are being paid as minimally as possible, who also don't like their job, to give you food that is designed to be as minimally edible as possible to not make you deathly sick.

I keep a close watch on my annual personal finances and I save about a thousand dollars a year by not eating at fast food places.

EDIT: typos from my fat fingers, you'd think would be caused by fast food but isn't because I'm just a big fat pig

gotta get that value menu for the good deals.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I used to do that but then I started thinking of the health benefits .... fast food has none ... it would probably be healthier to eat sugar mixed with sawdust.

It's paying money to degrade your health, which you then spend money on trying to fix later in life .... it's investing in bad health and after 20 years you then spend money to try to fix the bad health and weight that you essentially paid for.

When you look at an entire lifespan, eating fast food makes you pay twice - once when you buy the food - then again after its caused bad health that you spend money on trying to fix.

It's far cheaper and probably extends your life (especially healthy life) if you just don't eat any of it.

back when i was living below the poverty line, fast food got me by in a pinch living in what was otherwise a food desert with no car. 🙃

nowadays it’s more of an occasional indulgence.

New copypasta just dropped

Bad quality control.

It's mostly location based.

If you've worked in one you know

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

This made me think of the Haiku Bot - the first ( and probably only ) thing from Reddit, that I'd like to see around here.

[–] MisterMoo@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

It’s just an easy joke people make on the internet.

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 3 points 10 months ago

It's a funny trope, doesn't mean it's true

[–] CarlsIII@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

They just love coffee with their burritos

What episode is this from? Or is it an outtake or something?

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

I don't actually know. I just found the gif on a random website.
