No Wonder There Wasn’t a Line

A car sat at the drive-thru at a McDonald’s in Bath Township, Mich., for 15 minutes, the driver honking the horn and cursing, trying to get someone to take a food order. The restaurant was already closed for the night: the lights were off, and there was no one inside. The driver finally sped off in frustration, screeching the tires and driving over a curb. And how do we know all of this? A police officer was parked 20 feet away, watching the whole scene. The unidentified driver was “incredibly intoxicated,” police say, and had wanted to order “some McNuggets, a McDouble, and a McFlurry,” but “McFailed.” (RC/WZZM Grand Rapids) ...And was then McJailed.
