Utter hijack, but…“hi/r”? That doesn’t work out as shorthand for either gender, as for the male you’re missing the final letter and for the female the middle letter is incorrect. Seriously, are people actually using this for “his/her” now? I sincerely hope it doesn’t catch on. Hideous.

Amen! Preach it, sister!

And BubbaDog, I don’t know how familiar you are with small-town (Union City, GA, pop. 11,621, according to a 2000 census) Georgia cops, but the stereotype that they’re power-mad neckless goobers* isn’t completely unfounded.

Union City is not small-town Georgia; it is a suburb of Atlanta.

To me, the real shame of this is that merely by nature of their chosen profession, some folks seem to make light of serving tainted food to a police officer. Just my opinion, but the dangers associated with law enforcement shouldn’t include your food being fucked with, simply because you were doing your job when you wrote up Jimmy Fuckstick for a traffic violation the other night.

Check out some of the cites in this blog.

If it doesn’t bother you, then ask the waiter for a nice big throat oyster on your steak, and give him a decent tip, too.

Absolutely. Of course, I also think it’s despicable that merely by the nature of their chosen profession, some folks get free meals. Mind you, that’s equally a hijack I guess…!

Yeah, let’s talk about food critics elsewhere.

My question is why was the cook singled out? Her story, apparently backed up by the manager, is that the manager knew about the over-salting, and that the drive-through clerk was the one that gave the burger to the cop. If there was a crime here, aren’t the manager and the clerk also guilty?

I wonder if there’s some history between the cop and the cook that made him believe she did this to him intentionally. Or perhaps some history between the cop and the other McDonalds employees that made him give them a pass.
