That is delightfully geeky, and very very true.

I guess. It's very well targeted towards 'stad's demographic and obviously a cathartic for him.

Otherwise it's just more last minute comic-a-day nonsense. Boo.

The McRib comes around here about twice a year.  I usually get one.  It's about the only thing I halfway kinda sorta like at McDonalds. Except for Egg McMuffins.  And Sausage McMuffins (w/Egg).  They are tasty.  Everything else at McDonalds is screamingly mediocre.  Which is, I suppose, intentional.

On the strip -- sure is ironic to see the 20 something get all crotchety and generational.  These kids today!  They don't know nothin'!  

Whatever, Pap'aw!

As a generational dividing line this is priceless to me.


Seconded, and I'm younger than you are. Maybe I just never liked teenagers. (Another good dividing line would be calculator watches.)

"Recipes" for the late, relatively unlamented McDLT (not something that can really be pulled off without the gimmicky styrofoam packaging, as far as I'm concerned) and the hurts-so-delicious McRib can be found here. Bear in mind that I just found this on the web about two minutes ago and make no promises. I'm just a sucker for copycat recipes (thank you, William Poundstone) and this document is almost charmingly quaint in its compulsive usage of the very special character mapped "trademark" symbol.

The Subway in my rinky-dink college town has exactly one reigning virtue: it serves basically-just-McRibs all year. I am not sure why they do this, but being able to go in and get six kinds of nasty on a foot-long McRib makes up for the fact that the place closes at 9:00.

Anyway, I just now read the strip. I'm a bit perplexed as to why Beef is still wearing the wig and glasses. Low budget?

I actually had to google what a McD L.T. was... after seeing the timeline, I can see I was a bit young when it debuted, but yeah.... hm.  the slogan did seem somewhat familiar.

At least I know what a McRib is though cause yeah, they do bring it back over here sometimes.... usually many commercials are shown when it does.

I've been staying away from McD's for a few years though... once their fries lost the lard and I don't eat meat, so.... heh.

The strip was pretty cool nonetheless... I think it is the wig and glasses...
