    everyone thought they were the funniest person for asking for a whopper at a McDonald’s

    is it possible for someone to maybe have done that, not as a prank, but because they were so shitfaced while in the drive thru that they legitimately thought they were at Burger King and/or confused the two?

      Everything is possible. But this is a common drive thru “prank” in at least the northeast of the USA, I remember it being all the rage when everyone got drivers licenses.

      Or just aren’t into brands or burgers, but remember a name they liked once.

      Or just a brain fart.

      Yes that happened, and yes we could tell the difference. Drunk people were pretty obvious. As long as they didn’t throw up I was fine with them, because again the $7/hour employee would have to clean it up

      Yeah someone like me, who for the longest couldn’t remember what “mcbullshit” name they had for the burger I wanted, so I ordered “two of those dollar burgers” until they raised the price and I had to learn the word “McDouble,” ugh lol.

      Maybe it’s someone who just absolutely can’t be bothered, like “let me get one of those whoppers or whatever the fuck, it’s all the same.”
