lol it is gross


I did find a cockroach in my BigMac   the s*** was alive and all covered in of course ketchup and whatever else crap, how did I find out? cuz I always (used to) put mayonaise (sp?) on the stupid hamburger.

so long story short, Im glad I didnt eat the f***ing thing yet I did puke in the bathroom  , I did throw the goddamn f***ing hamburger right to the freaking manager and I told them how disgusting they were and the thing that pissed me off is that the guy laughed when he saw that, long story short, I stopped eating at Mcdonalds for like... almost a freaking year and more   and I personally wont eat at THAT McDonald ever ever again, and I actually DO bad advertizing to them big big time. And I dont care, I hope they get shut down actually.

Its gross gross gross, freaking gross

I don't like eating at most fast food restaurants. I haven't had something as bad as that happen to me, but I think I've found another reason not to eat at McDonalds(unless I know that it's a decent one).

[Yonkey]

That's f***ing disgusting!    I've heard stories of people spitting into hamburgers and stuff but eww!

[GunHoMac]

although KQ9 can't really be considered a closure to the series since that would effectively end KQ and it's future...plus you can't call an end to something you didn't create...I think of KQ9 more as a guiding light to fill in all that ambiguity left in parts 1-8 (yes MoE too), and give it a more defined path towards any potential successors (KQX)

[Yonkey]

Correct, nothing is definite; especially in the KQ universe.  

[B'rrr]

  it's disgusting indeed!! lucky you put on mayonaise, i never liked macdonalds ...i prefer the burger king but i suppose the same thing could happen there  

[Mary Jane]

Wendy's meets all good standards.

[Johnmichael]

Only thing i eat at Mcdonalds is the ice cream cones those are so good, My favorite place would have to be burger king though.

[Yonkey]

I had Burger King a couple days ago.    It was yummy!  

[Jeysie]

Ugh. If I were you, Say, I would have helped them along with being shut down by reporting them to the Board of Health in your area.

Besides, they can't even make a Big Mac right, obviously. A Big Mac should already have mayonaise on it!

I've worked at a couple Burger Kings, and while the service was terrible, our managers were pretty anal about keeping things sanitary. Never worked at a McDonald's, but I can't imagine the average one would be all that different. Besides, in most cases the workers eat their breaks at the restaurant themselves... after all, it's convenient, and they get huge discounts.

I prefer BK myself, but the service in the ones around these parts is bad to the point of being almost impossible to eat at, so I usually go to McD's. (Actually, there's several restaurants around these parts where the service is bad. For instance, even though I love Pizza Hut food, I can't eat at one because the employees at the ones around here suck.)

Judging by the manager's reaction, I suspect that the place Say ate at was, well, poorly managed. Either they don't adhere to cleanliness rules, or the employees are inclined to (and allowed to) indulge in pranks. (Or well, both, considering they had access to a roach to play a prank with to begin with.) Of course, any place that did that around here would probably get sued by someone anyway... maybe being a nation of lawyers has its perks after all.

Well, I hope so. Otherwise what am I going to do with a law degree?

Hee.

Still, the US obsession with suing each other and taking each other to court over just about *everything* is kind of depressing. Of course, to be honest, I think lately the only way people can be made to treat each other decently *is* by introducing legal consequences... which is an even more depressing thought.

If Vivendi decides to buy KQ9

That in itself is a really big if.  

and publish it under the Sierra title,

I wouldn't mind this, since instead of an Unofficial sequel, it would be an Official one and yeah, I probably would still buy it from them just cuz from all the work the team has done so far on the project alone.  

the KQ9 team would have very little to bargain with...

True, but still I don't think the team would agree to selling rights to their original work to someone that will bastardize it.  Well, in my opinion anyway.

especially since Vivendi would have the whole "release the game by yourselves and we'll sue the pants off you" on their side

I'm reminded of the saying "you can't draw blood from a stone".  In other words, there's no point in suing someone for hundreds of thousands of dollars or more if they don't have anywhere near that kind of money, nor have any intention of generating such income from the product in question.

Also, I remember Erpy saying in the past that companies would usually issue a Cease & Desist letter, rather than a full-blown lawsuit.  Since they never sent one to AGDI, I'm hoping we won't receive one either.  But if we do receive one, we are willing to stop production.  Still, I'd rather read over the terms in that letter myself and see if the project as a whole must be stopped, or if it is just the use of Sierra content that must be.

Nicely put Neil. I’m really not too sure how I feel about the prospect of being absorbed or shut down by Sierra. I think folks have articulated some of the possibilities and some of the positive and negative things that could happen.  

All told I am proud of our efforts up to this point and hope that we’re able to continue in the fashion we’ve been doing and finish what we’ve started.  We’re doing great on our own; I’d love to keep it that way… only my two cents!  

[Say]

anything could happen, just like Cesar could go psycho and fart on everyone of you too, you may never know?

[etgadsby]

That might be fun...  

Then again perhaps not...  

[Yonkey]

It's a fine example of the least favoured scenario.  

 

[B'rrr]

don't you mean least flavoured ...or actually most

[Yonkey]

Perhaps this could lead to a full-time game design job .  Who knows?

Hahah, I like that deal:  
"Ya want this game?  You gotta buy me with it!"
